Now I'm mad about modern art again.

That is weird, since she's part of the official Princess lineup. Maybe Ming-Na Wen was busy or something?

Star Trek Into Ralphness

Wreck-It Ralph was great, Taraji P. Henson is great, this news is great.

Most of them are pretty nice girls. I kind of doubt there'd be much fighting.

I always find it funny that when both movies were in production, Disney was treating Pocahontas as their huge, prestigious blockbuster and The Lion King was "the other one".

Kidnapped by Kevin Feige for saying too much.

I've read several explanations of how to play it and I still think it is.

I guess I've just seen too many people being shitty about the basic existence of minority characters and I've lost some of my optimism.

Yeah, that's what I meant by "in the past"; they seem to have mostly left that in the Classic Era (which I'm a little disappointed about, since I'm asexual myself, but whatever, I guess), except for a couple moments with Eleven.

Are they also going to assault each other on-camera?

I think it's because it's easier to get an audience if you diversify an existing property than if you make something new starring a "minority" — it's uphill work convincing white people/straight people/men/etc. that something isn't specifically "a [minority] show" if it focuses on a minority character. But if it's…

I don't even think British people understand how to play cricket, they just pretend they do.

To be fair, the Harry Potter movies have featured half the actors in Britain, so…

The actors who play him might be, but the Doctor's been heavily coded as asexual in the past and doesn't seem to have a gender preference now. He's not explicitly queer (or wasn't when I last watched the show regularly), but it's pretty hard to argue that the Doctor is straight.

EVERYONE GIVE IT UP FOR AMERICA'S FAVOURITE FIGHTIN' TIME LOOOOOORD

Maybe we could talk Sandra Bullock into it.

I'm one of those people who uses "fuckin'" as a filler word instead of "uh" or "like".

I wasn't paying attention at first and read that as "When I lived near the bottom of the ocean" and immediately wanted to know all about that. But unfortunately your post doesn't actually say that.

It's called an Electra Complex, Crane!
