I want to give an honorable mention for Time Chasers, because it’s just charming. It’s not good, but it’s also not one of those so-bad-it’s-good, it’s just very earnest and very incompetent and I love it for that.

> Are..Are they really going to call it Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots?

Which, she’s too “big” at this point, but she would have been an amazing Doctor, and it would have carried on the loose tradition of one-episode guests taking over the role years later.

I mean, it’s a great idea. Especially with the “making sure they’re well-qualified”. It’s not unusual for actors to direct shows they’re starring in, but LoT really seems to be baking it into the DNA of their behind-the-scenes work. Lotz, MacCallan, and now Richardson-Sellers. I guess I also appreciate that they’re…

It’s charming how pretty much everybody on the Legends of Tomorrow cast gets to direct if they want. I dig it.

… there’s no Grave of the Fireflies? That’s a pretty glaring omission. It’s one of those movies that’s so good that you dread ever rewatching it because you know it’s going to absolutely destroy you.

Knowing that there was another season of LoT coming was one of those things that made the isolation of the pandemic bearable.

Yeah, it 100% got by on being a hollywood movie painting hollywood as big damn heroes, but like, being cool about it, the whole time. Uggghhhh.

Honestly, I hadn’t paid much attention to the awards, but I’m more offended by the pile of Oscars Argo got. That script was okay, at least until the airport chase “climax” at the end, which is one of the dumbest sequences ever put to celluloid. I understand you want to have some sort of ticking clock sequence, but…

Well, that’s actually a selling point for a Gunn-ified Superman, though. Superman is a huge misfit. The character’s a huge fucking weirdo.

Rewatching The Red Shoes in black and white would be an extreme disappointment, or really any film made by the Archers. I want somebody to make a filter that makes every film look like it was shot on a juicy technicolor process.

Let’s give a shout out to Furie, AKA “Taken, but with a Vietnamese mom instead of Liam Neeson”. What it lacks in the originality department it more than makes up for in its well executed stunts, and made on a budget that would make Roger Corman proud (without looking like a Roger Corman movie).

I’m very disappointed that the trailer didn’t have him say, “I’m gonna have to beat the devil out of it.”

I mean, I just described what is in essence throwing the entire script they used out and replacing it with one that understood the basic premise of the film. I think I would go so far as to say “just by having a decent script, it would have been good.” At least, vastly improved.

WHICH IS WHAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE THE FIRST TIME. It boggles my mind how you can screw up that premise so bad. Take 3 parts Dirty Dozen, 2 parts Kelly’s Heroes, 2 parts Wild Bunch, blend until smooth, serve in superhero spandex.

There’s a place for those kinds of games, but L4D’s style of gameplay isn’t one of those places. The “grind” in L4D was learning the maps and finding the tricks to each one, and just “git gud” in terms of overall gameplay.

See, I feel the opposite- it’s discarding what made L4D great by making it a class shooter with an XP tree to climb. I’d much rather just have polished gunplay, great maps, and every character playing exactly the same. Drop in with three other randos, and survive the apocalypse together.

Confirmed: they’re the CW version of the Wonder Twins, they get a monkey in S2.

Instead, Roddenberry boldly went with any female castmember that was down to party.

As much as Roddenberry gets the credit, it was Coon and Fontana who really did the heavy lifting to create the world of Star Trek. On the creative side, they really made the show we recognize today.
