Don’t feed the trolls. This one comes complete with talking points approved by the incoming Republican House of Representatives.

It’s a stupid comment to make at the trailer stage, but I kind of understand what he’s going for. For example, when Zack Snyder’s Watchmen came out in 2009, I experienced the “who is this for” feeling because it was often fetishistically faithful to the comic, containing a bunch of details only someone that’d really…

Well said. Hopefully, these guys will do enough with their careers that Batgirl isn’t featured in their obits, but it’s surprising how hard a professional failure can hit you emotionally, even if it isn’t a high-profile public humiliation. It feels stupid to experience grief at the failure of a work project—no one’s…

The way I hear this works is you have to find the park bench where Kathleen Kennedy hangs out, feeding pigeons. You have to sit near her—not right next to her, you have to at least be on the other side of the anti-homeless divider or preferably the next bench over. If you do that, Kennedy will offer you a hard candy,…

Marvel teaser trailer disclaimer: quality of special effects subject to change.

It’s probably revenge for the time he made her appear on Flea Market Flip.

About 10 years ago, a Cincinnati lawyer actually outbid Easy Rider’s producers for the rights, and made a sequel:

Back in 1985, Albert Brooks did the best possible revisionist take on Easy Rider: Lost in America, where he and Julie Hagherty are a pair of yuppies who, inspired by Easy Rider, quit their jobs to travel around America...in a Winnebago, because they’re yuppies and motorcycles are noisy.

Is this the same guy/people who already did 2012's Easy Rider 2: The Ride Home? I’ve never seen it, but it was directed by Dustin Rickert, whose filmography seems to be “Hallmark films about Christmas.” And it stars Jeff Fahey (in a supporting role) and a bunch of people I’ve never heard of. I only know of this movie…

That Weinstein joke was dumb and insensitive but the piece Wright is complaining about isn’t incendiary or out of line if you actually read it. It acknowledges repeatedly that Wright is an outlier both in terms of the severity of her scandal and her Oscar chances.

She was a breakout star of 2018's highest grossing movie in the U.S. And her character was the rare black woman represented as a genius scientist. You might not have known who she was, but a lot of people did.

He would’ve taken great pleasure at ordering those student rebels teargassed, so he could hold a bible upside-down in front of the Porte St. Martin.

I think in this case, “original” means “of the original show,” not “of the first iteration of the cast.” I’m not sure six members of season 1 cast are even available to return, given that they killed Patinkin’s character off and Thomas Gibson is persona non grata.

“Why does he keep calling you Lana?”

Particularly in this case. I’m not sure that anyone credited as “Girl Clerk #2" ever got as much media attention as she (and Smith’s daughter) got for their roles in Tusk (and later Yoga hosers), or had been photographed so much at fashion shows and galas before actually having done much substantive work in…

Do we actually know that? I mean we have no idea if Depp auditions well or poorly generally (the Idol people rave about her audition tape, maybe because this “nepo baby” thing seems to bother her), or if she even auditioned at all before her first movie roles (the first in a movie starring her dad and written and direc…

These same guys: a bankrobber drops his gun, you pick it up to keep him from using it in his escape, “Why don’t you keep your hands off someone else’s property? That’s not your gun! You have zero right to be touching it! Give it back!”

I think to go to “gender based” on this is a bit out of line. I’ve never seen anyone out there defending the armorer in any real way (outside of her lawyers, who’re paid to do so). The closest anyone came to that was NM OSHA, because she documented her requests to the department heads on Rust that she needed more time…

The people he’s suing are mainly the ones whose job it was to ensure that the guns he and other actors were handed weren’t loaded with live ammunition. Given that they failed at that job, resulting in someone losing their life, it’d be weird if he didn’t sue them.

Exactly this. Baldwin’s taken his avoidance of responsibility to unpalatable extremes, but it’s very easy to volunteer someone else to “take the hit.”
