Disney+ is definitely the worst offender. The short episodes of short seasons are absolutely a simple cost saving measure, and it has made Disney+ the worst value in streaming. They release a few short seasons of TV per year with bizarrely short episodes. There just isn’t enough meat on the bone. There’s a reason that…

Looks very cheap, which makes sense when there isn’t a single recognizable name in the cast. I get that the Harbour version disappointed critically and financially, but the first two were beloved hits directed by a respected auteur. Sad that Hollywood seems to have decided that Hellboy is a radioactive property for…

I am so glad they didn’t draw out this reveal until the end of the series. It was becoming pretty clear and the show didn’t insult our intelligence by dragging it out artificially. It was effective and satisfying, and Manny Jacinto was awesome.

I’m intrigued by this movie and am looking forward to seeing it, but every time I see the description with the bit about how Maika Monroe’s character “realizes a personal link to the killer,” I’m thinking, please let it not be her dad or something.

He hasn’t been funny since The Stapler (his best movie).

Mandalorian Shriek-Hawk Trainers and Mandalorian Shriek-Hawk? If the Shriek-hawk is the animal, shouldn’t the single packed figure also be labeled a trainer? Lucasfilm can’t just name the characters?

Hopefully it’s a quasi-remake of the Badlands directed by Terrence Malick, and Elle plays a young woman who goes on a killing spree with her new lover, a Predator.

My god... that pre-viz looking shot of a poorly rendered airplane crashing is so jarring. Why would they include that in the trailer? Nobody is looking for a shot like that from a Beetlejuice movie anyway.

I would have preferred Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me: A Knives Out Mystery

So sort of a ground-based version of Stealth (2005)?

This article is garbage. Galactic Starcruiser’s exorbitant cost turned off anyone with a functioning brain, whether they thought it was a hotel or something “resembling a fancy theater camp where you could wallflower it or actively participate in your own corner of Star Wars.” It would have been far better and more…

I’m aware of that and it has nothing to do with my point? Nor do I think it’s a “Brian Herbert thing.”

The mythology here is starting to make the Mad Max timeline make my head hurt. We first meet Max in the original as an adult man, in a world that is crumbling but isn’t the apocalyptic wasteland it becomes by The Road Warrior. So does it make sense that Furiosa, who appears to be his contemporary, was growing up in…

I mean, I’ve read the first four. I liked them but am not interested in reading further, certainly not the Brian Herbert stuff. The major time skip for God Emperor is only 3,500 years, and things have changed significantly. More than it seems they have changed in this 10,000 prequel.

I love Dune and am very open to watching and loving this, but being a 10,000 year prequel really kills a lot of excitement. It’s such an incredible gulf of time that it makes it hard to feel anything. If its so incredibly far removed from the world and story, why do I care? And if it doesn’t feel removed enough from…

I don’t recall any mention of birds, though in the reboot prequels the Simian Flu has replaced nuclear war as the reason for the apocalypse. There was mention in the originals that disease does wipe out dogs and cats, which leads to the proliferation of apes and monkeys as domestic pets and eventually servants.

We meet Max in the original as an adult man, in a world that is crumbling but isn’t the apocalyptic wasteland it becomes by The Road Warrior. So does it make sense that Furiosa, who appears to be his contemporary, was growing up in The Green Place 20 years earlier, amongst a tribe of women who seem to already be…

I haven’t started X-Men ‘97 yet, but the header image looks a lot more cell shaded and computer animated than I was expecting from this series. I thought they were going to try and match the style of the original series in this continuation. 

How did they “get it so wrong”? It seems like a win on every front. It’s a fun collectible for Dune fans and went viral because of the humorous sexual connotations.

They’re both doofuses, but at least Vin is something of a meathead artist, whereas the The Rock is just totally devoid of scruples, creativity, or any other redeeming quality, and completely business focused. Just completely detestable and phony. Nothing about him seems authentic. I always found him mildly annoying,…
