Magnolia, the one where he plays a cocky, over-confident character who’s humbled by a sudden event in his life? I mean, it’s a great performance but it’s a variation on the persona he built in Top Gun, Rain Man, Cocktail, Jerry Maguire, etc.

Yep, early morning is a time when nobody wants anything, and goddamn that can be nice.

He’s pissed, mostly because he left WB over their treatment of Tenet (which he persists in being a whiny baby about given the state of the world at the time) and he sees Barbie’s scheduling as their retaliation against him (and knowing current WB management, he could very well be right).

He’s using legitimate-sounding language to couch his gross demands in a veneer of respectability. Setting oppressive restrictions on a person’s autonomy and making extreme demands of them isn’t negated, excused or justified just because “My boundaries are -” is put in front of them.

it almost feels like a meandering fan fiction past its prime

The Thai children’s soccer team that got trapped in a cave received breathless attention and there were multiple films made about it, so... maybe?

Mostly I wish he’d get back to co-writing his movies with Owen Wilson. Something major was lost when that ended, even if all the superficial elements were still there.

Zelda has always been a series focused on environmental puzzles with a series of unique items and abilities. This is a natural extension of that.

Fucking hell, why not just make this a “13 Times Robert De Niro Let Us Down” listicle while you’re at it? If you’re going to fish for engagement you might as well use a net rather than a rod.

Same as millions of others: they have social media and are gonna use it, goddammit.

Say what you will about Man of Steel, at least Supes had the excuse of being new to the whole thing in that one. Returns was absolute character assassination.

i could spend eight dollars a month or i could just squeeze the bags of juice with my bare hands

The free grab bags are very clearly gifts. There’s no implication that the celebrities bought those things themselves, and there’s no public-facing markers involved that announce a celebrity owns a thing without also indicating how they got it, without any input from the celebrity themselves.

Just because Big Man Moneybags buys the community center everyone loves and wants to turn it into condos doesn’t mean you let him. Sometimes you need to have a catchy chant and a bikini car wash to raise enough money to kick his butt back to the big city and leave us alone.

You’re so frequently ridiculous that I can’t tell if this is a joke or not.

“In the headline.”

I’m sold.

Which is odd because I don’t even remember “I Will Always Love You” being in it.

Edit: Wow, no idea how I wound up this far back in time. Ignore this!

The game sold extremely well, the play sold well but got a mixed reception, and Fantastic Beasts has been on a steady downhill slide both critically and commercially. Harry Potter still sells, but cracks have started to show.
