i get the sentiment and agree that the victims + families + friends deserve something, but it would have been weird and even more tasteless to have the victims casually mentioned in a “thanks” speech at an awards show (and this group of blogs would absolutely be all over it for the weird moment it was).

Counterpoint: Accepting that language evolves does not mean we have to like and accept every single new term that falls into common or semi-common use among certain groups in the population. Words appear and disappear, slang terms rise in use and then fall just as quickly, but some of them stick around and become part…

I’m a little bummed The Descent didn’t make the list. It’s a rock solid movie, and the jump scare at the end of the first act consistently made friends scream when I showed it to them. 

Periodically, everyone on the internet seems to lose their shit over this scene, but I don’t get it. The scare is so endlessly telegraphed that I wasn’t at all surprised by it, and the dude looks like Old Gregg from the Mighty Boosh.

Mel B spoke at a recent Tory conference in support of tougher laws against domestic abuse, but I’m not sure if she’s a party member.

I became a Tears for Fears fan (forty years late obviously) thanks to The Tipping Point. What an incredible band they’ve been all along.

I missed this album due to getting a divorce.  Lots of music I need to catch up on.

Took me way to long to find Orville Peck mentioned on this page. Bronco is easily my #1 album of the year.

Dude gets shot through a carton of egg nog, mid-gulp!  Doesn’t get more Christmasy than that!

“...though he gives an indisputably star-making turn, it still feels like a villain—even one as well-reasoned as him—shouldn’t be the most important, or interesting, character in this hero’s tale.”

Shut up, James.

James Corden has done nothing worthy of working with someone of Sally Hawkins’ calibre.

Spoilers: There is a scene where the Wasp dies because she refused to get a vaccine for the Time Flu.

If there’s one thing I know about the guy who masterminded the incredibly successful and profitable Infinity Saga, it’s that he has no idea what he’s doing!

You’re not as incisive as you think you are.

I don’t think anyone was clamoring to see Thor on the big screen, or the Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, the Eternals, or Shang-Chi.  Having a dormant movie franchise a lot of people liked, and a two-time Oscar winner eager to star in its revival, seems like as good a reason as any to bring back Blade.

Brick, his first movie, was also genuinely good. 

I’d argue Brick was his breakout, and Looper was the sci-fi bigger-budget resumé line he needed to get the Lucasfilm/Disney phone call.

Saoirse Ronan is just a joy in general.

it’s a trailer you fucking psychopath. A trailer posted officially online by A24 the company distributing it. Calm your tits dumbfuck.
