And they want that? Really?

I am right there with you. My wife made me watch it not long after we got married, and while I would say it was enjoyable enough, I never did and never will get the big deal about it, but also don't have the same utter disdain I do for, say, Braveheart. The worst I will say about it is that the framing sequence is…

So someone here tell me what's wrong with Kinja? (That article is locked to comments, which is really sucky.)

I hope this has a longer run than Conan's Serious Jibber Jabber, which had a similar premise and was great but only ran like six segments. I love when guys like Conan or Letterman (or dear old Johnny Carson) get time to just talk with people who something great to say, and the celebrity garbage (which Letterman…

Between drug-resistant germs, AIDS, Ebola, Zika, and the persistence of cancer, I can't imagine that Pestilence stayed retired, though it's not like Pollution isn't have a good time of it.

Millenials are killing germs with all their fancy hand sanitizers and soaps. When I was their age, I let the germs live!

I don't mind him golfing, or even being a hypocrite. It's not like we have too many presidents who are workaholics. And we've had plenty who took a lot of vacation time including FDR in 1944! Wherever the president is, that is the center of activity and in theory a president could handle any crisis from anywhere. …

Has anybody here seen Leatherface?
I heard he's back, and needs a place to lay down

At long last, the UK's answer to Kent Brockman.

And that actually disqualifies you from working for the GOP? Wow!

Boy, Fox News must be really in bad shape of none of its reporters are good enough for the RNC.

Firestorm would have made the team five members, and Prof. Stein would probably have been a nudge to Mr. Terrific.

And Mark Millar's role with Fox was over long before today's Netflix news.

Meanwhile, DC is launching a book with Mr. Terrific, Plastic Man, the monstrous Metamorpho, and a revamped Phantom Lady, and calling it The Terrifics. This might be the best job of trolling DC has ever done.

Don't watch No Ordinary Family, as it make you feel even worse.

High Fidelity.

I tried the first year's worth and, like most of Hickman's work, it didn't do much for me. But he clearly has great love for them, and I have to respect that.

The first two films were, by all accounts, merely mediocre. (I haven't seen them and don't plan to.) It's only the most recent one that can be called a body blow to the concept.

I have argued many times that the first Garfield Spidey was a pretty good film (and Roger Ebert will back me up). But the last Raimi film did well enough at the box office that plans for his fourth outing were in the works for quite some time.

It's not because the movies were bad. It's because Marvel Studios didn't own the movies. But if the movies were better, or more successful, Marvel probably wouldn't be trying so hard to pressure Fox into relinquishing the rights. "See what Sony/Columbia did with Spidey?" is their argument.
