This is absolutely correct. The only way to hit any of this media companies is in the pocketbook. There is literally not other way to get any response. So if a newspaper or TV station or website is not doing the job the way you feel they should, your only recourse is not to patronize them. Even if you get a million…

You know … Trump voters.

But he had such an enormous schnitzengruben

Screw you. I'm working for a famous director.

I'm not watching a lot lately, so this was the first legitimate A episode of any show I've seen in a while. After getting better every week, this one made made me really eager to see the next. And I do think it's a comedy. It's just rather a poignant one, which you don't see a lot anymore. It has genuine affection for…

So I remember it was drink. I'm stream of consciousness-ing this post until I can remember. It was something I used to watch a lot. Fuck, this is driving me crazy. I'm breaking down now. I'm going to have to go to google.

To be fair, I always thought the whole take place over no more than one year rule was a steaming pile of horseshit.

Right now I feel like Y: That Last Man represents sort of best case scenario for our world's future.

It's not impossible, but you have to be able to tell a story in which the known ending works in your favor. It can be done, but it is really, really hard.

I'm pretty down on prequels. You have to be pretty fucking brilliant and original to pull off something that has a predetermined ending, not to mention a predetermined following story. And GOT, while I enjoy it, isn't even that at that level of brilliant, so I cannot imagine the prequel being anything other than a…

I agree. It's been enough to keep my interested enough to watch it, then to watch it again with my wife. And to like it better the second time through. I'm not slighting it as its own thing. I was just observing how this thing that I like very much is prevented from being a thing that I love based on this one…

The other thing for me is that over 5-7 years, plot is entirely beside the point. Plato would freak out about the idea of a 7 year plot. Or maybe it was Aristotle. I forget now. One of the dead Greeks who like to knock off little boys.

Everyone loves what they love. Movies can work for me as something entirely plot driven (Nolan's Memento is brilliant), but long term investment requires detailed character work or I get bored.

As am I. I wasn't being literal.

I'd like to preface this by saying that I enjoy Westworld, and that I enjoyed it even more when I recently rewatched the first six episodes as my wife caught up.

His catchphrase "Diversify this, negro!" sounds disturbing, but don't we have to see it context?

Shouldn't we wait and give the Pepe the Frog series a chance before we condemn it?

It's definitely not LOST. It's only half as good. I enjoy it, but we're seeing a drawback to being so focused on executing your plot: the characters are getting short shrift. And the character work on LOST was what I cared about. The mysteries were always secondary, even tertiary, for me.

Voting for Trump in a movie should automatically make it X-rated.

Man, do I have a weakness for Guarding Tess. How much are the Le Sueur Baby Peas again?
