I’ve commented on Ben posts before and it bears repeating: he’s just from Boston. This is what our city vibe is like. It’s not unhappy, it’s just resting Boston face.

“James Bond” is a code name! Every Pixar movie takes place in the same timeline! Harry Potter is an abused kid imagining all his adventures! Bruce Wayne is in a mental hospital imagining all his adventures!

How can two guys and a girl even afford a pizza place in this economy?

The early ‘Fast & Furious’ films featured a competition called Race Wars, so it’s kind of on brand.

The score to Killers of the Flower Moon is among Robbie Robertsons best, also his last.  I wouldn't mind if it won.

Why would anyone make a show about a regular human bartender?

This is a good run and I could sort of tell it might be winding down since Guillermo’s storyline essentially ended last season

The way Che's voice jumps an octave on the “all the turmoil in the Middle East right now” line when he sees what he's in for kills me. 

I feel like Michael Bay went to see BHC2 and was like, “Holy shit, that’s my style!” and it all went out of control from there.

Here’s the biggest crude oil producers in the US. A “western alliance” would certainly align with oil interests. If we’re talking nineteen states.. well, there’s ten. Not hard to imagine those larger states getting NV, AZ, SD, and NE to fall in line, not to mention ID, MT and WY. Then you’ve got WA and OR cut off from…

The first was absolute lightning in a bottle. Just so well put together and just pure fun. You can tell that some of the funniest moments are pure Murphy improv.

Same trajectory as the Rambo franchise - an 80s story

We also don’t talk about why poor Lisa Eilbacher is the only person phased out after the first one.

I guess I don’t understand what y’all are seeing, because this made me sick to my stomach at how believable it is. By this time next year, we’ll either be in the midst of an armed uprising, or preparing to inaugurate America’s first real autocrat. I know it’s comforting to pretend otherwise, but it was also comforting…

I was thinking that the best possible outcome is that some other studio releases it and it makes something like $150M domestic, and then HBO’s board of directors get stern looks on their faces and call an emergency meeting.

I’ll be watching him from now on.

I know it is unkind to gloat, but I’m an Ohioan and GODDAMN does this feel good tonight. Republicans in Ohio have had their boots on the necks of us women for far to long, and it has been excruciating listening to their whinging for the past few months about how “extreme” and “radical” it is to ensure that women can…

From what I’ve read, I’m not even sure that there’s anything that would prevent someone from being an extra, finally scoring a breakout role on a TV show and becoming famous (it’s rare, but has happened), and then having their likeness used as the second lead in that Kirk Cameron movie.

That’s the whole point of the push for top-to-bottom automation — so the wealthy can completely eliminate any dependence they have on the rest of humanity, once and for all. Sure, it won’t be ‘as good’ as what actual people can do, but it’ll be good enough that they won’t care anymore, because it’ll be infinite,…

I believe you left Babe off the list entirely, no?
