Kate Mara is black?

Upvoted for forcing me to laugh in spite of myself

Yes, the scourge of fun entertaining movies, jeebus save me!

I thought it was brave of him to log onto this board and admit it. He really went out on a limb.

Patch worked for me. Really, it's about getting over the mentality that you need to 'reward' every goddamn thing you do with a cigarette afterwards. If you need to satisfy the oral fixation, I recommend patch + tea-tree toothpicks.

'Marvel's Squirrel Girl starring Alison Brie'

ssshhhhhh

I do love the fact that Squirrel Girl is universally scoffed and yet also legendary for once getting the drop on Doctor Doom. That's a great gag.

Marvel Comics: The Untold Story is a terrific book— Well researched, tough-minded, and fair. Great, eye-opening read for any fan of Marvel Comics.

But you have to admit, Hiddleston's praise does seem a little too on Thanos.

Being a white fellow, I thought many of the directorial flourishes (like the slow-motion panic attack) were distractingly awful, but I assumed that a dude directed the episode so I thought I'd keep my trap shut.

Bored to Death, like The Leftovers, had much, much bigger problems than lack of diversity. Although yes, I think it would have been improved if they had cast Donald Glover instead of Jason Schwartzman. Almost anything would be better with Donald Glover in place of Jason Schwartzman.

I remember Jonathan Banks vividly from seeing him kill Axel Foley's best friend in the beginning of 'Beverly Hills Cop' in 1984— The first R-rated movie I ever saw (I was 8!) and it blew. my. mind. (cues up 'Axel F' on iTunes)

Thank you! I mentioned this after watching the pilot and everyone was like, 'pshh, he runs'. Well, I'm closing in on 40 and I run, too. But what a difference a six-pack (of Sculpin IPA) makes, and the chief seems to put down about 12 a night.

'Also, why in the hell do the laundry owners need an extended backstory? That's a joke.'

Dear Sonia; I may be caucasian and male, but at least I know how to correctly deploy the 'magic negro' trope in critical conversation. Also, I can't know if I've read more queer theory than you, but I'm increasingly sure that I understand it better.

You really deserve more upvotes for this joke. Truly, this is the real injustice perpetrated by this week's 'Leftovers'.

I think bad criticism is just as worthwhile a topic of conversation as bad art.

I see. I guess I'm just someone who hates Michael Bay's filmmaking AND finds it entertaining and useful to talk about exactly why and how it's so awful.

I'm left-wing and precisely the thing I hate most about terrible liberal writers like Sonia is they give ammunition to meatheads like this guy^^
