Blackie is such an interesting character! she has this powerful femme fatale energy the first time she shows up on the series, it really comes across like she has complete agency and confidence. and then as the One Eyed Jack’s arc goes on, you realise that she’s just as under the thumb of all these despicable men,…

Rifftrax does a Kickstarter every year.

So if you’re calling Joel bad at business, what are they?

I am a big consumer of both MST3K and Rifftrax, and definitely agree that they have different identities. Rifftrax is really purely about the riffing, in the early going their concept was that they wouldn’t even pay for the rights to the movie, they’d just release an audio track that you’d sync to the movie. And that…

Jesus, two years later and I’m never going to stop feeling vicariously embarrassed by people calling Captain Marvel’s 90 seconds of air force content that’s entirely about how they’re a bunch of misogynist pricks ‘military propaganda’.

More like Middledick!

i once played “bucky” in a play about comic books! it was a story about captin america battling a female communist agent. i had prosthetic buck teeth!

“Chaotic good” as how I described Agatha last week, and her trajectory during this episode just hammers that home for me. There’s still a lot of the sassy-neighbor-next-door and hammy villain in the beginning of the episode, but by the end (for me) her words register as more the righteous indignation of a learned…

Is it wrong that I thought of Blanchett’s equally compelling turn as the villain in Mrs America first?

Agreed, 100%. One of the great things about the way that they’ve approached depicting Agatha is that, even if I’m right and she ultimately turns out to be good, it’s given Hahn a chance to ham it up as a villain. I think that she’s giving Cate Blanchett a run for her money (and that’s saying something, because I loved…

I mean, even taking Wanda out would accomplish a net good, though it’s also done on mercenary terms. Kidnapping and threatening Wanda’s children is definitionally bad, but so too is kidnapping an entire town in your grief. I think, and suspect, she might be trying to act on the greater good. That said, Kathryn Hahn…

I keep going back to that moment in the previous episode when Agatha, watching from her window, doesn’t intervene in Wanda’s showdown with Monica until the latter says “Don’t let [Hayward] make you the villain, and Wanda replies, “Maybe I already am”. In the basement and in her theme song, Agatha hams it up, almost…

I’m ready to be proven wrong, but I’m not sure Dottie is going to turn out to be anything. I get that she’s a genre actress we all recognize, but I kind of think it might just be a case of a minor actress getting a minor role on the show.

The last few scenes with Agatha did give me that feeling at times, but I am not trying to get my hopes up. 

S.W.O.R.D. Director Tyler Haywood (Josh Stamberg) is a more banal villain than Agatha, likely because he doesn’t have a viral theme song. However, he’s no less sadistic.

Debra Wilson was easily one of the best performers on that show, always consistent and commited, and if there was any justice in the world she’d be a huge star today.

Birds of Prey being better than Suicide Squad is like having your neck snapped being better than burning alive.

Put me down for liking the first Thor, especially the fish out of water stuff.

David Lynch already made this announcement before. He did it in your house. Don’t you remember? He’s there right now.

I am left now with the distinct impression that the cast of Justice League created a very toxic work environment for Joss Whedon.
