The Reavers - a band of notoriously vile and violent savages who will eagerly inflict any and every kind of depravity and torture on the people they capture - as a stand-in for Native American tribes was also not the best concept.

I cannot believe that The Big Bang Theory is on any serious list of good television, let alone the best television. And it’s ranked higher than The Good Place, which is truly offensive.

That said, I’m overjoyed to see Babylon Berlin on here. Please, can more people watch this so I can finally talk about it with…

If I had to pick one of those shows, it would absolutely be The Last Airbender over Legend of Korra. Love them both, and might prefer Legend of Korra’s animation style, but TLA is more cohesive and consistent, and LoK gets very crowded with significantly fewer episodes in which to develop their many characters.

Turns out they can take the sky from you.

It truly is a shame that both Natasha and Clint get their own solo outings - Clint even getting a multi-episode series where there will presumably be plenty of time to develop characters and relationships - but one is post-Infinity War and one is post-Endgame, and so neither of them appear in the other’s story.

The ability to shrink or enlarge anything could immediately give us a post-scarcity world by enlarging any of the world’s resources. It would completely change the face of every industry, from transportation to waste disposal to medicine. Entire economies would collapse and new ones would be rebuilt. And that’s all…

Agreed. I loved when I thought that Dreykov and the remnants of the Red room were just a sad excuse for a KGB replacement, with a small, petty man turning young women into killers mostly for his own sense of self-importance. The fact that he’s “only” killing hundreds of people over the decades, by making slaves out…

And Shakespeare in Love, too. I think he’s good as a leading man, depending on the movie, but I think he definitely shines as a supporting role.

Truly. It was called Throwndown, and it sucked. Unlike Iron Chef, Bobby Flay showed up and challenged them to a surprise cooking challenge. I’m sure they submitted an application, but it still seemed like bullying.

Even if Flay lost, it was a hollow victory, because he was trying to best them at their trademark dish.…

It says a lot about the franchise that a tank chase through the streets of St. Petersburg is pretty damn grounded, relatively speaking. 

Craig is hands down my favorite Bond. There’s something about his ice-cold demeanor that really sells how he would kill a man, and then bang that man’s wife while the corpse was still warm, with equal dispassion, as long as it meant getting closer to completing his mission.

It’s a different than the cocksure bravado…

I’ll always be bitter than they took the amazing insanity and drama that was Iron Chef, pasteurized it into Iron Chef America, and then diluted it even further to make Beat Bobby Flay. 

Fully agree, and I get on this soapbox every chance I get.

I don’t consider myself a particularly skilled gamer. And yes, Dark Souls is hard. But the difficulty is hyped in a way that suggests only hyper-skilled players can enjoy or beat the game. And having played through it several times, I confirm that isn’t the…

I’m pretty sure that Loki was abandoned as an infant and left to die due to being a runt, and Odin saved him by adopting him, rather than him being kidnapped.

Which raises the question of how Loki ends up as a regular-sized giant (as in, giant-sized, which is regular for giants) and happily serving as prince of…

Casting a teen to play a teen isn’t always necessary. But it’s all about context. If Platt is a 27 year old that looks believably 34, opposite a 24 year old that looks believably 17? You’re off to a bad start getting me to buy into the premise.

It gets worse if the story then hinges on him making a huge mistake and…

This might be something of a hot take. But I think one of Shang-Chi’s big flaws was that Wenwu and the Ten Rings weren’t scary enough. I loved Tony Leung’s performance and I love that they gave him nuance that Fu Manchu never got. But Fu Manchu was terrifying. For a thousand-year-old warlord with a global criminal…

I can understand, on some level, people being disappointed that Kingsley’s Mandarin isn’t really the bad guy. He’s a tremendous actor and had an incredible air of menace.

The thing I don’t buy is the fans that are pissed about the character not being accurate to the comics. Nobody gave a shit about the Mandarin. Most…

Not a joke, but maybe my favorite one-liner is from the first Iron Man. Tony ordering a drink by saying, “Give me a scotch, I’m starving.”

Honestly, better than the Jack White/Alicia Keys nightmare that we got.

Totally, though the current lawsuit between the two parties in question makes things a tad trickier than usual.
