Alons-o?

Yeah, seems like a silly thing to argue about. Being objectified is literally the job description of a model. That’s the gig. I can get Markle both being aware of that and also being a little icked by it. Though I do understand the other models potentially being miffed at the “bimbo” characterization.

Right, but I’m assuming the first season is also on Apple TV+. Which makes it invisible. 

“How in the hell did I not know that Gary Oldman was in a washed-up British spy TV series?!?!?”

Aside from those already mentioned, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Up in the Air, Burn After Reading, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and Three Kings all qualify. In addition to the eight or nine already listed.

Just wanted to point out that the whole “Ohhh, America is soooo litigious,” storyline is an intentional, ongoing strategy to shame regular people from using the one recourse they have when they get screwed over by corporations and the mega-wealthy, and then discredit them when they do sue.

It’s not hard, people like the bad boy. Do they think women throw their panties at rock stars because they think they’ll make a good dad?

I think the trick with the other guys on your list is that they got their iconic role/s early in their careers, before they became “Action Superstar Guy”. The Schwarzenegger of the 90s wouldn’t have taken the role of a straight-up villain in the original Terminator. Stallone had to write a custom role for himself, and…

God I love that. Twister is such a ridiculous movie, I freakin’ adore that there’s a cabal of evil tornado-chasers in shiny black vans being led by Carey Elwes. It creates a whole alternate universe where people go to college for a decade to get advanced degrees in meteorology for the money, because we all know that…

Bill Paxton was awesome but for whatever reason he just never worked as a romantic lead. 

Agreed, Cavill is a really charismatic actor he could absolutely pull off the “big blue boy scout” Superman.

It’s hilarious that your identifying role for Rebecca Ferguson is Doctor Sleep.

In action movie franchises (or franchises that are action movie adjacent) it’s long been understood that it’s more exciting to do the new love interest than attempt to write an actual ongoing relationship. Even when they do decide to bring the love-interest back for the sequel, it’s almost always after being estranged…

One of the issues with the fake meat is that it’s really not any healthier for you, so the “I like meat but need to lose a few pounds/eat better” crowd is out of luck.

I remember when the movie came out I thought, “Oh my God, they made a movie about a Weird Al song.” 

I never said anyone made the BMI the “lone factor” of anything. I did use the word “obsessed” so, fine, GOT ME THERE. But the point I was making is an over reliance on a shitty metric. Which is well known.

Dude, at this point I don’t even know what we’re arguing about. And I really don’t know why you’re so invested.

Hmm, relentlessly bleak but visually beautiful story about constant misery that results in suicide. That’s very on-brand.

I had the same initial response, “How in the hell do you make The Jaunt a movie or, god, a TV show?” But thinking it through . . . if you use the short story as a first episode (or, if a movie, the pre-credits intro), make the experience itself more of a mystery, and then expand from there (what did he see?!?) and…
