I know there’s a famous story where after the final episode was finished, Max Wright (the dad) walked off the set and left without saying a word to anyone.

ALF was by all accounts absolute hell to film, with the sets being a maze of dangerous trapdoors for the puppeteers, and just about all the actors hating each other. You’d never know it from his performance, which hit the perfect ET-lite note throughout the whole show. And good for him getting out of the business…

Genuinely bummed about this. I really liked Chapter 1 and was excited for Chapter 2. From the first moment of the film you are reminded why Costner has a Best Director Oscar for a western. These films deserve to be seen on a big screen. I hope he gets a chance to finish it. Honestly the weirdest choice was releasing…

I like going to the movies, so, selfishly, I hope theaters survive. But I think audiences have made pretty clear that there are really only a handful of movies per year that they’re willing to pay for a full theatrical experience to see. And I don’t think that makes them assholes or philistines.

She’s going to host a goodbye party for Ellen that Ellen will later deny being invited to.

Dakota Johnson is celebrating somewhere right now 

Annie’s Boobs is not holding up its end. Fucking monkey

*You don’t actually need us to say who this footnote is about, yeah?

That’s what I love about the series. In the movies it is implied that Daniel. Johnny, etc. are obsessed about Karate, but presented as if that’s just their particular hobby. The show depicts a Southern California that’s more obsessed about high school karate than Indiana is about high school basketball.

It’s pretty jaw-dropping just how many of the movies’ actors they got to come back for this show, including many who you wouldn’t blame at all for never wanting to think of it again. Though they still haven’t touched The Next Karate Kid, and I’m still holding out some hope that Hilary Swank, Michael Ironside, and…

This is the man who gave us Grover, Elmo, Oscar, and Kermit Tully. 

She was good in Ben & Kate. Give her more comedy.

Or Bronny James. This is going to be ugly. He’s nowhere near pro caliber and his dad is going to get him utterly humiliated.

I’ve seen him in plenty of things and I still can’t tell if Clint Howard is good at acting or just crazy. It’s a lot like the Nic Cage dilemma.

I think “nepo babies” aren’t as much of a concern in sports because we have statistics for that. Ken Griffey Jr. never had to fight off the nepo baby rep.

Or Bronny James.  This is going to be ugly.  He’s nowhere near pro caliber and his dad is going to get him utterly humiliated.

What’s a little ridiculous about this specific callout is that Clooney DID get shit-talked about his connections. But it was, you know, 30 fucking years ago or more. I get her point but she really should have chosen an example from THIS era, not the release of Revenge of the Killer Tomatoes.

He didn’t have a lot to work with given the terrible script, though.

Starting the episode at The Wall just reminded me of how awful and rather meaningless the White Walkers became. I’d rather not think about how that ended so I definitely could have done without that opening. A tour of Winterfell would have been just fine
