that’s not what happened at all but okay

No HBO is the reason that show was successful and HBO putting the right people around those hacks is the reason that show is successful and they just admitted it in that thread up above. Nothing else Benioff has ever touched has been good, I mean he was one of the screenwriters on freaking Gemini Man for crying out…

Yes, she pushed him into traveling the world ‘as men do’, which is to say by horse, foot, and carriage instead of teleporting around, so that he could experience humanity from within instead of just as an observer. This too was tragic, because if he had just teleported home from where he had been instead of walking…

Also, wasn’t Vlad absent when Lisa was killed because he was traveling around to experience humanity?

I get the feeling they just left huge sacks of money on Warren Ellis’s doorstep with a note saying “please make this old video game into something good” and then just left him to it. It’s insane how good this turned out to be, mainly because he cherry-picked a few elements from the games and spun it into something…

That show is so much better than it has any right to be. It took a video game that has almost no plot and gave it stakes on character, religion and world view that just don’t exist in the original castlevania universe. It’s so good, but also a perfect illustration of why it’s the video game movie exception and not the…

I was sad, I expected Tony, but not her :(

Boycotting Amazon for being shitty is just making you a hypocrite. Every company is shitty and exploitative. Unless you’re going to completely disengage from society, you’re just making arbitrary choices about what exploitation deserves your attention.

I know we’ve seen Harley before on Bob’s Burgers, but man, she was great in this episode as one of those minor characters who is specific and realized.

He comes from a showbiz family. They were all in Coke commercials back in the day.

Bojack Horseman had a great take on this in one of their Season 5 episodes. Diane calls out her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Mr. Peanutbutter (who’s about 12? years older than her) for dating and marrying younger and younger women the older he gets. His first wife was about his age, 30ish. His second wife was Jessica Biel…

His lawyers also claim that he did not throw her down the stairs—merely, he picked her up, tried to carry her out of the house , but slipped before reaching the stairs and caught her in his arms.

He’s a man dating a woman half his age. Of course, he’s a controlling douchebag.

As I get older I sense a following pattern with men, especially men of privilege *cough Johnny Depp* :

They’re young and beautiful and the loves of their early lives are equal-aged women of similar beauty and stardom, they wed, the next decade more or less (in Phillippe’s case a bit less) their careers continue to…

Good on Sesame Street for working to help kids tackle such a difficult subject.

Dennis is at his best when trying to make something ridiculous sound noble and high minded. 

What, you mean it ISN’T a huge trap, out to get everyone and ruin society and kill comedy and boners for everyone, everywhere for all eternity???

It’s just about respecting people and making people feel safe and welcomed?

Wow! Well I’ll be consarned!

Don’t be racist, sexist, ableist, or trans/homophobic. That’s pretty much the list. If you can’t make people laugh without being any of those things, maybe the problem isn’t the culture that surrounds you?

Lindsey Ellis has made a video on the problems with Game of Thrones.
