In regards to your comment about her being super-hot, I don't think someone like Rachel would see that as a plus. Her songs and the writing of the show indicates a bit of an insecurity about not being Hollywood skinny, and the she's likely read every Youtube comment from dudes who state that they don't mind the extra…

Agree that it wasn't hyped AT ALL. 90% of the pre-release chatter was how similar it looked to Tangled, and became an enormous success due partly due to one song and it striking a nerve with every little girl. Overrated would be a more fitting term than overhyped.

In regards to your point about the music, at the time there was a LOT of people who were vocal about getting rid of the musical aspect altogether, hence them slowly phasing them out by the time we got to Treasure Planet and Altanis. I don't think it is a coincidence that this was when they officially slipped out of…

I think she is mostly wrong for entirely this reason. This is money making venture. Hollywood has been shoehorning Chinese actors into their films to cater to the Chinese market, and this is the same but reversed. I remember rolling my eyes at people who dimissed the money excuse when the apparently racist fashion…

Hard to say.

Agree that she was underutilized, but disagree with everything below:

I always saw Torv as one of the actors who is completely dependent on the material. Olivia didn't start getting interesting until that literally gave her magic powers, and Torv didn't get to have fun with the role until they let her also play the evil twin.

The breakup wasn't all on her. Everyone can see that he essential forced for to move into the White House against her will under the guise of protection as penance for not marrying him. Everything they said to eachother in that argument was true. And yeah, the whole Olitz thing is fake, and viewers should have notice…

I'm still completely convinced that a lot of the anger is because Olivia and Fitz broke up again. The fan backlash was actually exactly the same as it was back in Nobody likes Babies in season 2. It's not hard to see that the specific complaints against the show are directed at character that distract away from…

Fitz isn't that popular. He is considered popular and attractive by a small section of obsessed fans not because of great writing and acting, but because they find Tony super attractive.

If I was to have one complaint about the film, it is that the theme of accountability got away from it in the final act. With Black Panther wanting payback for his father's death, the Zemo wanting the same for his family's death, and then finally Iron-Man wanting to kill Bucky because he killed Tony's parents, the…

I felt the opposite because my attention kept drifting during that monolouge.

That's actually not out of the question given that BM co-creator Kerry Ehrin also worked on FNL

It seemed like the writers quickly gave up on the idea of her being Greek, so they made her half/asian and french just like Elodie and had her adopted into a Greek family to explain away the Greek reference in season 1.

Yes, Renee, I said "race card". Scandal is the only show where the viewers constantly use race as an excuse for your shipper dreams being crushed. No show has this many incendiary yet empty proclamations.

This one is easy. The show isn't actually about sexy couples having sex. We don't come here to read reviews about the hotness rating of Olitz, or Olake, or Lizsusid. The show doesn't aim THAT low.

Ghastly use of the race card. Shonda has far too much capital in the TV world to be fired from her show, especially when ABC has given her an entire TV block and order six Shondaland pilots a year. The show is called Scandal - it supposed to be degrading. And no, Shonda has never ever ever been immune from criticism.…

Yes. Read up on the Yelp reviews for the Abortionplex.

Can we really pin this all on white authority figures? I’ve read so many stories from Ethiopia and Indian girls who were constantly told from elder female figures that they should not stay in the sun because it will make them dark, and thus less desirable. This is a common story from places that do not have a white…
