I kind of disagree with The Last Samurai, it’s not really a typical “white savior” type movie. It may look like if you haven’t seen it though. It’s really about a warrior, Ken Watanabe, seeing part of himself in a fellow warrior, Tom Cruise, in this case enemy.  And that other warrior, Tom Cruise, finally being able…

That feels like some extremely important context.

The PA who got paralyzed was the safety person for a lift that was going up and down.  Her job was to let people around the lift know when it was moving.  She decided to sit UNDER THE ARM OF THE LIFT on the device and poke at her phone.  She was, I’ll re iterate, the person who was assigned to keep people aware of the…

On a positive note, at least it wasn’t sexual assault?

Unpopular Opinion: I’m fine with this.

Fear is the sequel killer

Of course Paul following his own way starts a multiplanetary jihad causing billions of deaths, but hey! At least they weren’t following the sinister she-Jesuits!

Children, welcome to stand-up comedy. Lenny Bruce would be amused by you. My suggestion would be stay strictly in the Jim Gaffigan comedy lane (which is great) and absolutely avoid a comedian like Anthony Jeselnik (also great).

Every few weeks or so, the denizens of film Twitter (and presumably other social media circles) whip themselves into curious frenzies over what beloved directors of classic films widely regarded as “proper” cinema have to say about present-day Hollywood’s obsession with superhero franchises. Though little ever comes…

“If you see a stranger, follow him!”

I want them to do “Toys In The Attic”

I’ll tell you how the kids version will go.  Lots of kids will show up to watch the first episode, and most will watch episode two.  By episode four, the audience will have halved, and by episode 6, halved again.  By the final episode, number 9, there will only be a handful left, and only these chosen few will get to…

I’m laughing so hard at this high school paper of a column, especially since this author just wrote a piece called “How to Patch the Dead Spots on Your Lawn” last month.

Yeah, me liked these books as young monster, but even then me was aware that, while Asimov have fascinating, grand ideas, he not great at writing interesting characters or giving plot emotional stakes. So me glad someone doing loose adaptation of this, just so long as it not I, Robot-level loose.

Someone probably should have foreseen this….
