Season 1 would have really benefited from the first half of the season being case of the week stuff, with Kilgrave coming to the fore for the back half. 

God DAMN that was hilarious!

Blue Ruin managed to make a vigilante rampage look pretty pathetic.

Side issue, and I hate coming off like a bitter broken record, but The Magicians popped off another A range episode tonight. It coincidentally also had a long sequence of pure near-silence. Marlee Matlin’s character got an origin story and an 8 minute block of uninterrupted show time dedicated to her POV in near…

You just became my hero.

Well done, here’s your star.

Ah yes, you speak of the dread Culotthulhu.

That is not dead which can eternal lie,

Organize a communist regime on the farm, with rabbits as the de facto leaders? Have all the characters break into a rendition of “Beasts of England”?

This literally made me laugh out loud.

Well, that’s part of his tragic backstory; in the movie, his mother has also since died (though they don’t say she was eaten by anyone). I understand why Peter doesn’t really care that McGregor is dead, but the way the movie treats it is a little ghoulish.

When they keep retconning the characters so hard there is no way to let character drive plot in a consistent way.

“If Archie can’t even handle my grandma’s fingers, how can he handle murder!”

Just to say - there was more alarming things in that speech than just immigration talk...

She could spot a fraud because she expected the worst of people and projected her own behaviors onto the people around her. Here she did it by recognizing Chidi’s own quirks and biases—something she’d never gotten to know someone well enough to do before.

If you had told me 10 years ago that Captain America would be my favorite on-screen superhero, I would’ve scoffed, and yet here we are. (Pre-Black Panther mind you :D ). So much of that is because of Chris Evans’s portrayal.

That moment where he just *changes* right in front of our eyes is a more impressive transformation than almost any big budget CGI trick. With nothing more than acting and physicality he really makes it believable that no one sees the truth.

A few years ago, I rewatched this film for the first time in about two decades. It gave me a new appreciation for Christopher Reeve, because to me, he’s the only actor who has ever convincingly peformed the “secret identity” trick. His voice tone, body language, posture, movements, and speech rhythm are completely…

FYI - Superman doesn’t reverse time by making the planet spin backward. He flies faster than the speed of light, and the planet going backward is a visual representation of time reversing.

Just plain, simple Gambi.
