People have been talking about Oscar snubs since at least Citizen Kane.  This isn’t exactly a new concept.

I don’t recall anyone saying that it’s reproducing...

i guess technically Holly poses a threat, as a believer and a capable investigator. But yes, everyone else would have no idea what they’re doing without El Cuco pulling weird shit. 

We don’t know Terry didn’t feel anything weird.

Maybe El Cuco’s powers vary depending on how much he’s fed. Or he’s using a considerable amount because he knows somebody’s on to him and it’s wearing him down.

Lots of people are murdered mysteriously and we have no idea who did it. How’s Jack’s victims for El Cuco any…

Good questions. Not trying to defend everything, but this is how I rationalized some of it.

I'm getting a similar feeling. Maybe they think it's bad animation because they're used to CGI crap like Frozen? 

“I really didn't like the childish dialogue in Tarantinos 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' but it became much less childish when Jordan Peele did a shot for shot, word for word remake of it"

Yeah this is a really weird stance to make when discussing lyrical content. It's the same. The only difference is the performance. Which, whatever, if you like Rhianna version of it better - cool - but that's more on feel for her interpretation/voice. 

Warren Ellis.

As a fan of the show...I think it’s got good characterization, I happen to like the animation and character design, good plot, actual character motivations that run deeper than expected, humor, flawed anti-heroes, and it follows the premise of the games without feeling like a retread or like it’s beholden to following…

Nothing else comes close

You can say that again. (No, really please do)

Very strange that I just read the Pitchfork review, expected them to go all hipster runoff on this album, but they gave in an 8.0 and were almost entirely positive about it...AV Club...trying to be more relevant by being more critical?  Or saying the emperor has no skinny scarf?  YOU be the judge.

Did something happen to the Waynes that involved a gun? I feel like this hasn’t really been addressed in any of the comics, movies, cartoons, or TV shows.

it’s a super weird review. obviously mentioning weaker aspects of the album is a must, but focusing your entire Tame Impala review around his lyrics and ignoring everything else is like reviewing a Pink Floyd album for the drums. like c’mon - “A conversation about the nature of devotion turns into Parker telling the…

You’re taking me too literally; my point is that if you’re starting your Tame Impala review with “I never understood the big fuss over this band; their music always makes me cringe,” you’re obviously bringing that to the table with your first listen.

Couldn’t agree more. It Might Be Time made my decade playlist already. I can’t believe how much this review relied on the lack of profound lyrics when that’s never been what Kevin’s known for... hell, he admitted that Let It Happen was partly gibberish until he had to perform it live!

I found all the singles solid, actually going back and enjoying Patience more like one of those sounds better in the context of the albums thing even though it’s not on the album. Still a fan after Currents even though it’s obviously more pop, dance oriented. I’m actually just realizing how much this sound of theirs…

Shallow lyrics? ha ha.  This review fucking sucks.

While I never expected this movie to be good, I think AV Club reviews have officially crossed a line of cynicism to a point where they’re no longer helpful. They’re just the hipster at the bar, shitting on everything, even when it’s pretty enjoyable on its own terms.
