Denis Rader’s daughter wrote a whole book about her struggle to deal with learning he was the BTK Killer. It’s pretty interesting, if a bit heavy on religion.

One of the twins killed himself, too. Good luck getting people to not think of that.

Just remember, if you do anything to explain why you like this movie, you’re just as bad as the guy mansplaining The Godfather. I don’t make the rules.

They also REALLY lucked out that Alec Guiness went a bit rogue and delivered the line about Vader killing Luke’s father with a regretful tone like he’s hiding some darker secret, because at the time Vader really was just a guy named Darth Vader who killed Luke’s father. Lucas was very open at the time that the

So...did you just completely miss that whole thing where Peter Morgan told us years ago that this is where the show would end, because he’s not comfortable with fictionalizing events with less than this much historical hindsight? He also said it’s very much a possibility that after that time has passed, he’ll do one

It’s been incredible seeing Timothy Omundson find so many ways to keep his career going after his stroke, and his playing Hephaestus here may be the best yet.

For anyone unfamiliar, here’s how badly the Percy Jackson movies screwed up: the titular “lightning thief” isn’t the same character, and left the series without its main villain. So the second film tried to make up for that by bringing him in...but then has Percy soundly defeat him, meaning there would have been zero

This announcement seems to have instantly turned Black Panther fans into the new Snyderbros, furious at the idea of focusing on a single thing about Wakanda besides a recast T’Challa. One guy called me a “white incel” for saying he wasn’t the only interesting thing about the country, which I’m going to be eating out

For everyone just now learning about The Night Agent, a major selling point is that it has maybe the most satisfying comeuppance for the mastermind of a government conspiracy I’ve ever seen, and the kind of thing I’d been wishing someone would write for a while.

Frequency is hugely underrated. I totally understand if anyone refuses to check it out because of Jim Caviezel, but there’s no right wing stuff in the story at all and it was made before he did any of his really bad stuff as far as I can tell.

Saw X was the best of the series, and I’m amazed that it took this long for them to go that direction. Very much looking forward to more like it, since as far as I’m concerned, it’s just about impossible to screw up a story about assholes inexorably marching toward their painful comeuppance.

What’s Up Doc actually ends with O’Neal himself mocking the signature line of Love Story, saying it’s the stupidest thing he’s ever heard. And that was just two years later, to give an idea of how quickly the movie evolved from beloved romantic classic to campy mess.

And keep in mind, every bit of this is the stuff his lawyers DIDN’T think was so bad that no one should hear it.

I had the privilege of seeing him on stage alongside Carol Burnett. 150 combined years of classic TV.

If anyone knows what that symbol means or even resembles, I owe you a coke.”

A bunch of people are saying “Let’s remember he deserves presumption of innocence.” To which I keep replaying “Did you give it to Harvey Weinstein? Because if not, who are you to lecture anyone else about it?”

So did Treat Williams finish all his scenes before his death? Seems like kind of a big thing.

Good luck with that now that The Morning Show is known entirely as the show that convinced Juliana Margoles she has the authority to speak for the lesbian community.

We are not doing a Black Christmas 2019 redemption tour. I refuse to let this happen.

One thing that never made sense to me: how did William H. Macy get away clean in all this? From everything I’ve read he was an equal partner in everything.
