Particularly if they’re antique guns or quality replicas, I can see where people might want to do some shooting when the guns aren’t in use, particularly if they’re filming in a remote area where it’s as simple as setting up a target and firing, rather than having to take the guns off-location to a gun range.

In case any New Mexico cops are here, we have a suspect for the cowardly dipshit who loaded a live round into a prop gun...

Moments like this, one misses the ability to downvote comments.

I disagree, mainly because I was already an adult the first time I watched Buffy. I think the main thing that diminishes it with time is that Buffy has been imitated so much since it came out—including by Whedon in other shows he’s done—that stuff that was groundbreaking at the time is standard now. When the show…

She never does identify the person with the third-degree burns. Could be the same incident...

The thing I remember about Thelma and Louise’s marketing, and it’s so weird I sometimes wonder if I imagined it, is that it featured the words “life affirming,” which seem to be from Janet Maslin’s NYT review. (SPOILERS) It’s a movie that ends with a double suicide.

To be fair, that was the story at the time, that Rose was miserable throughout the whole season and that it showed in their behavior on-set. Also, Ruby Rose was part of the “sweeping under the rug,” claiming that they left the show voluntarily at the time and now saying they were fired.

There’s a “throw everything at the wall and see what sticks” element to Rose’s accusations. I mean, it makes sense to mention other on-set injuries if her main complaint is being pressured to come back to work after a serious injury, although it’s kind of weird that she tries to make the guy getting third degree burns…

It’s steady work, in a field where that is far from guaranteed, and where actors can often have relatively short careers.

If he was in fact forcing women to grope him to “flatten wrinkles” you’d think Ruby Rose in scorched Earth mode would actually say that instead of “steam.”

If Justice League had made money, none of this happens. Ray Fisher didn’t seem to realize he’d been abused by Whedon until after it became pretty damn obvious the Cyborg solo movie was never going to be made.

Age of Ultron had both a lukewarm reception AND a diminished return, hence why Marvel had already tapped the Russos to direct Infinity War by the time Whedon was hired for JL. They saw the writing on the wall.

It’s pretty well known that the thing that Warners did to take care of Gadot’s situation was that they convinced (or probably just told) Whedon to let Gadot’s stunt double do the scene where the Flash lands on top of Wonder Woman, and Ezra Miller does an exaggerated “I’m touching a g-g-g-girl!” reaction. Instead of…

Hey! It looks like Kinja’s working again, sorta!

If you have to start your film with an extended narration, Lynch at least had the good sense to put it in the hands of 22-year-old Virginia Madsen, delivering it directly to the camera with just a backdrop of stars. Beats a slideshow any day.

The official name of it is the Alan Smithee cut of Dune, because when the director disowns your movie, Alan Smithee is the director (or at least was—I think DGA retired the name).

One of the weird things about the 90s is that back then a lot of actors and actresses were a borderline household names even before they’d accomplished anything, just on the strength of studio hype and the entertainment press. So, even though his filmography is really thin at that point, by the time Brody was cast in…

I don’t think it would’ve been that hard for Brody to play older, unlike Stuart Townsend (who still, 20 years later, doesn’t look old enough to play Aragorn) he has the acting chops to pull that off. But I think he would’ve been an insufferable pick as Aragorn, anyway, because we’ve seen Brody play reluctant…

Most significantly, Brody is awful in King Kong, so I’m glad he didn’t go to New Zealand earlier to try to bring down the LotR films, as well. Brody seems to think that the way one plays is a sympathetic character is to make them pathetic and droopy. I’ve only ever seen him bring real energy to the table when he’s…

I was mainly playing off the late night commercial where people try to use q-tips and wind up screaming as if someone had tasered their privates (I think the product is some sort of ear vacuum cleaner). You’re right that those are all very efficient ways of cleaning out the ears, although I’ll posit that it isn’t at…
