Can a character who allows a war to start because she failed to keep her emotions in check qualify as a Mary Sue?

Most of the above movies have serious issues, not least Blade Runner. Classics often do. I’d put Jedi on the list just because it’s better than most of the films on the list. By 1983 the Star Wars team had well established how to do what they did. They didn’t need to innovate as much as with 4 and 5. But it’s a…

Empire is from 1980, so doesn’t qualify for the post- Blade Runner list

Interstellar is the hard science-fiction film that’s full of bad fictional science. I know, Kip Thorne and all that, but honestly: it’s like they wanted to present all these cool concepts from real physics like time dilation and tidal forces, but couldn’t think of any ways to shoehorn them in that weren’t wildly…

Yep, nothing sci-fi about Battle Royale, it’s just a fictional dystopia.
And Looper is nonsensical rubbish. It doesn’t work on any level.

Add Return of the Jedi, of course. Duh.

President of Earth.

Clooney had a whole string of flops before his movie career took off. John Hamm is still on the movie runway with Elba. The goodwill from their TV work will stand them in good stead for a while yet.

The bear felt the scene was integral to its character.

Michael Myers’ supportive spouse.

So we’re saying the first two episodes of this show are good..?
I have a horrible feeling that as the season progresses, and the lingering Bryan Fuller influence falls away, so will the quality. But it’s just a feeling.

Everyone knows that a space naval officer is only effective if his rank and surname are alliterative, whether human or tasty-looking lobster person.

Not to detract from the awfulness of his personal life, but may I just chip in that his work was uniformly terrible?

I’ve always regarded the first Kingsman as a straight-up parody, not only of James Bond-style spy shenanigans, but of the right-wing political subtext of those movies. Do we get that these are comedies...?

Hey, I’m not caught up on that show, Lancel got voted off the island?!
I had him pegged final four for sure.

I can’t stand Michael Showalter, but am conflicted on Walter Showmichael. Kumail who?

You’re doing all you can, I’m sure. But: as disqus is objectively better than Kinja, the best solution would be to look at disqus, and make it work like that.
