Aw that genuinely makes me sad. This dude is the only person I have ever thought sufficiently apologized for homophobic lyrics and stuff.

Had the change not been made: “there is something to be said for the fact that Marvel refused to replace a man with a woman in its promotional materials, especially in light of Scarlett Johansson’s lawsuit and Disney’s tone-deaf media response.”
Similar to the criticisms of White Lotus that say “It needs to have a more in-depth exploration of the impacts of colonialism and white supremacy on Hawaiian culture!” - like, that sounds like a very interesting show that I would watch, but that is not what White Lotus is trying to be!
That said, if the Coen Brothers stop making movies, I will be far more upset about that than I would be if Quentin Tarantino retired.
Weird to say an actor has been “wildly” miscast before we even know the premise of the movie. And just because Anderson movies aren’t over-the-top melodramas doesn’t mean his characters aren’t deeply human.
As an aside, since Gunn is taking elements of the Ostrander and Yale run of Suicide Squad, I wanna talk about one of the most long term consequences of Suicide Squad: Reintroducing Barbara Gordon as Oracle.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but was there a lot of samurai swords and martial arts in Blade Runner?

You don’t publicise Wes Studi, it interferes with his being terribly mysterious.
Why the F*&K do people like watching movies and tv series about bad marriages and divorce? I have hated this s$#t since I watched Kramer vs Kramer as a little kid in the middle of my parents divorce.

Fun fact from Kinja’s friendly neighborhood children’s librarian, there already is a Clifford origin story.
You know what my 3 year old asked me for this morning? A Clifford origin story.
As soon as he made the offhand comment, I was sure AVClub would be assigning someone to write 500 words about it.
Hey AV Club, I’m not sure whether anyone reads these comments, but here’s the thing.

I think I’m done too. Tried to make a clean break before, after the Kinjapocalypse and writer exodus, but the site still filled a niche in my life. Lately though, I just feel like I’m getting lectured by a bunch of snotty kids whose claim on the moral high ground is tenuous at best and outright disingenuous and…
I know this site’s been trending this way for a while, but this week especially, it’s stopped feeling like an entertainment site, and started feeling like a visit to the morality police, so I might have remove to my bookmark and stop visiting for the first time since 2001. That’s okay! Things change. I guess I just…
I love how the article tries to insinuate that it was terrible that she took a week to respond to this manufactured controversy. Y’all ought to be ashamed of yourselves.
How is Babylon Berlin not on this list?!?! You could make a solid argument that it’s better than anything on this list. I guess the last spot was between Babylon Berlin and Gossip Girl.
