Okay, but that was a GREAT episode of ER.
Plus they never had to drop a helicopter on a major character to maintain the audience.
Agree, I find the blow back Marvel occasionally gets for the interconnected universe they’ve built is kind of funny. I first recall reading complaints when Tony Stark played a large role in Spider-Man Homecoming (even though we already had FIVE solo Spider-Man movies). Have people forgotten how cool it is that these…
Made from genuine gorilla chest?
Mandatory blurb about how Lundgren was a chemistry whiz (and world-class karate competitor) who had recently received a Fulbright scholarship to MIT when he met Grace Jones, became her bodyguard, dated her, and followed her advice to quit the egghead route and become an actor. The guy has more going on upstairs than…
the absolute high point of this show was morty explaining to his sister that he’s a version of her brother who buried his own body in the backyard.
It’s funny you make that allegory because if there is one toxic fandom above them all, it’s Christianity.
I’m so, so happy that I now know Lucas said that to Iger. It was literally the same goddamn movie! I felt like I was taking crazy pills!
I watched the series today and by the end I couldn’t believe anyone inclined to watch a superhero series could possibly dislike it. The writing was solid and every actor was beyond charming. While making fundamental (and necessary) changes, it captured the essence of what made the comics great.
Star Wars *might* have the most toxic fandom, and I say that because I am at least accepting that as a possibility. That said, anyone who thinks there isn’t a huge amount of toxicity among self-proclaimed Star Trek fans is viewing the galaxy through a rose-colored VISOR.
Jake Lloyd, who alone in this world is justified in bitching about how Star Wars ruined his childhood.
and doing a really good job of it, too! Ahmed Best knocked it out of the park with what he was given.
Yeah, I mean, I never blamed anyone for Jar Jar besides George Lucas. The poor actor was just doing what he was told.
Exactly this! Before they released the last season on Netflix, I did a rewatch (because I really do love Shameless!) but they really should have ended it at season 7. After then, it felt like the writers were doing whatever they could to keep the Gallaghers hustling and poor, even when they were finally making…
There’s lots to like about the first Thor movie. Never understood why it is so lightly regarded. I also enjoyed the bit where he carried the very drunk Selvig back to the RV with the quote “We drank, we fought - he made his ancestors proud”
Detlef Schrempf would definitely have to be in there.
In the Dark Tower series King spent 6 books building up the Man in Black as the ultimate antagonist. And then in the 7th book he gets taken out like a bitch by some new villain and it’s such a disappointment.
I’m still waiting for the Benny Hill biopic so I can get the eerie, slowed down Yakety Sax that’s been missing in my life.
Yeah still waiting on how Leia knew her mother was beautiful, kind and sad in Return of the Jedi, when she died 2 minutes after giving birth to her in Revenge of the Sith.
