Trebek had that barely buried contempt for the stupid players that neither Bialik nor Jennings can replicate.

Truly, it’s a bummer that she was fired for union solidarity, and not . . . . everything else. 

“ in Snyder’s words, “like, an hour longer and has a whole other opening that’s all Ed. It’s really crazy.”

So, why didn’t he do it in the first place? He was literally the director and...god knows why...got the do “whatever you want”-card for these movies.
Does he need his cultlike followers to pray for a “Snydercut”…

Jeez, I know Trebek was a legend, but is it that hard to find someone who can read from cue cards and make light banter with players?

Six seasons isn’t exactly a short run.

“Hey, techbros cosplaying as movie and TV producers: can we have another season of William Gibson’s The Peripheral, please?”

Not a fan of hers, but pretty fucked up if this is the show punishing her for standing with the strikers while Jennings didn’t (also don’t like him).

I miss the golden age of A.V. Club when comments like these were commonplace.

With the amount of creative freedom he clearly had in this, I think it's safe to say: this initial version is, by definition, good director's cut.

Snyder has confirmed that the director’s cut of the first movie will be R-rated

It’s strange how much controversy has surrounded Jeopardy! since Alex Trebek’s passing.

I assume that giving Zach Snyder any money at this point is yet another one of Hollywood’s ridiculous accounting practices so they can always claim a loss.

Sometimes you have to put out actual trash in order to maintain appearances.

This is somehow the fault of the Hobbit Extended Editions.

“makes them feel smarterer without having to actually ever say anything of substance”

Considering he is quite the snobby asshole I can see why people hate him.

So it will be a 6.5 hour movie, filled with unintelligible scenes, infantile dialogue, macho men and damsels in distress... no thank you. No, nope, no.

His writing prowess can only be described as Wiseu-ian. The only type of good this will be is so bad that it is...

trying to imagine kojima containing his over indulgent narratives and dialogue exchanges to a runtime, lol. the man loves cinema but has shown no aptitude for cinema. “What do you mean the 10 minute long scene of exposition didn’t test well? I couldn’t possibly cut it!”

OMG you took the words right out of my mouth. Tarantino, for example, started out his career with My Best Friend’s Birthday. Sofia Coppolla? Lick The Star. Be part of the process (because it’s magical AF) and then do the feature stuff.

I feel exactly the same way. Having someone ELSE who knows how to make movies adapt MGS or Death Stranding? Absolutely. But trusting Kojima to do that himself? No thank you. He should have been making smaller budget stuff to hone his film making skills for a long time now, not just jumping into the deep end with a big…
