Research also shows that poor people and people of color are more likely to be forced to deal with hydraulic fracturing in their community

Except passive voice isn’t actually “wrong,” it’s just disfavored by certain people.

Les Grossman, executive producer of Tropic Thunder, would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

While not necessarily a great movie, it was certainly good enough to get high-school-aged me to go to the theater four times to see it (which I’m pretty sure was more times than I’d seen any other film in a theater to that point in time other than TESB and RotJ and maybe Willow), and which I think was probably the…

I’ve given up at this point trying to understand what determines how actors feel about particular roles because so often the roles they identify as their favorites aren’t the roles that they receive the greatest acclaim for playing.

now I’m sure he’s trained his whole life to be the best at sports or whatever, but she’s a superhero, and he’s wearing hockey pads. There should be no contest here.

Yeah, when I saw that photo, the “Bow-chicka-wow-wow” music suddenly kicked in.

I remember that appearing as a full-page ad in Marvel Star Wars comics back when I was a kid!

Being someone we don’t like, as far as I can tell.  The gas mask bit is dumb, but Gaetz voted for the funding according to the article.

and the virus spread from privatized health care

I’m pretty much of the opinion that coronavirus is the “Joker movie shooting” of 2020. (Note: I do not watch Fox or frequent any Republican-leaning media websites. This opinion is formed entirely from reading sources like Gizmodo, Slate, Salon, Vox, etc.)

The drop in oil demand is a symptom of the economy slowing down (not the other way around)

I see you’re familiar with the oeuvre of Mr. Abrams....

Very nice! I’m curious about what other film you were going to reference in this sentence though: “Think Alien meets with a healthy dose of British snobbery.”  

That’s not the real Dr Emilio Lizardo (if you hover over the name you’ll see it’s “dremilioolizardo8"). There’s some troll who impersonates Dr Emilio Lizardo for some reason. 

“Frankenstein” could absolutely work in a modern setting, and I think it might be an interesting idea to make Doctor Frankenstein the more tragic character. Perhaps he’s a brilliant surgeon whose wife basically dies in a horrible accident, and he is driven mad with the idea of losing her and attempts to rebuild her…

But in criminal cases, the courts haven’t consistently been asking this. “What we’ve seen is in civil cases, where there are financial stakes, there is often a careful inquiry,” said Garrett.

I’m sure you think that’s a clever remark, but my increased understanding of paleoclimatology over the last couple years (from sources like When Life Nearly Died by Michael J. Benton) is, in fact, what has made me less concerned about global warming than I previously was. Once you find out that the scientific evidence…

I have no clue what this is a reference to, but LOL’ed at your acknowledgement of its obscurity, hence the star.

The same way that 11's fez became his trademark despite him wearing one for probably less than 15 minutes of total screen time — it’s a really lazy way to visually ID something as being associated with a particular Doctor.
