Kevin Smith did try to grow beyond the ViewAskewniverse, Jay and Silent Bob, all of that. And he got smacked around. Rather than deal with more of that, he decided to drop back and stay with what worked, as a filmmaker. Then he discovered that talking about it was even better gig than _doing_ it.

This is the first Star Wars property that has made the TIE fighter as awesome and fear-inducing as it was back in 1977, in my opinion. Too many movies and shows have made the TIE into easily-dispatched cannon fodder. But in Andor, they’re loud, they’re fast, they’re frightening, and just glorious.

...because overlords are sensitive to the concerns of the underlings?

spoken like a person who’s never had to work a food service job. 

Cactus Plant Flea Market-style four-eyed toys of the old McDonald’s characters

Considering where the Wanda plot went in the Doctor Strange movie - not to mention what happened to the rest of the community in WandaVision itself - it’s surprising to be revisiting any of the characters, including Dottie.  A good surprise, but surprising nonetheless.

Rehearsing for when this happens to you irl huh?

Honestly, just watch the first episode of Kenobi and the last episode, and you’re covered. That or go seek out the fan edit that condenses the show back to the movie it should have been originally, about 2 hours in length.

Nice to have another entry that doesn’t deliberately mimic Lucas’ awful, awful dialogue and has people who talk like... people.

Summoning this much anger on behalf of the world’s most cynically profit-minded production company is definitely a choice.

This is the first one I’m interested in watching. For one, Rogue One was by far the better of the recent Star Wars movies.

But I’m sure all of the extras had intimacy coordinators so that they could safely and modestly block out and rehearse their 69-ing months in advance.

^ This right here is the truth. I slept on the show for awhile because I hated the first episode, but everything else afterward is well worth it. 

This site once wrote about people making art of dragons fucking cars (to the point that "dragoning" was site slang for a bit), but how furries can help a DIY project is just too far for you?

You can’t explain how scary it is to be a woman walking alone at night unless you’ve been a woman walking alone at night, and there’s a particular kind of terror involved as a woman being attacked by a man or group of men. A guy gets jumped by a guy in an alley, his first concern is the other guy is going to steal his…

Good. Maybe Bane can get his pasta maker back

Daniel Radcliffe is easily having the best “post-massive franchise child role” career of anyone and it’s surprisingly joyful to see all these completely weird and wonderful roles he does for seemingly no reason other than they’ll be a laugh.

They are doing a victory lap on life - while they can all still walk and think straight. I am all for it. It may be old hat, but its always fun to watch

I know Jessica Walter is not with us (RIP now and forever) but I thought Mallory had just “retired” with Ron Cadillac? is she also supposed to be dead?

Unless alpine picks him up to fill the seat they thought Piastri would fill… I don’t think anybody will pick him up
