Because obviously the “rational” response to any mass shooting is to nod your head gravely and say, “Well of course these dead people are the price we must pay for our Constitutional rights” and then buy another gun. Anything else is a nakedly political ploy to exploit a tragedy for nefarious purposes.

But what I really want to do is crisis-direct.

Come on, man, you know how: the DEEP STATE. It’s how Trump can continue to be the anti-establishment hero even after taking control of the establishment. It turns out there’s ANOTHER establishment even higher up than the establishment! Kind of like how it turned out Cobra Commander was actually taking orders from some…

I stopped watching while they were stuck in that town that was having zombie gladiator fights or whatever because I realized (way later than I should have) that this was going to be the show’s formula until the end of time. Group finds another safe haven, get comfy, some asshole fucks it up, big shootout/zombie rush,…

We need “incredibly high standards” for anyone who would be packing a gun in a school? Doesn’t Mrs. Kushner know that having “incredibly high standards” for gun ownership is, in fact, socialism and the worst type of treason against the ideals of freedom and liberty a tyrannical communist government can inflict on its…

You’re right, of course - Steel was me being snarky more than anything. Batman & Robin makes for an interesting comparison with the 1989 Batman because it contains many of the same elements - controversial casting of big-name actors, emphasis on production design over plotting, massive merchandising and marketing…

I figured Spawn might be the obvious choice, but Steel is interesting because of its status as a kind of vanity project for Shaq. We were all about giving NBA stars their own movies in the 90s.

I enjoy the MCU movies well enough, but I miss the overwrought production design of 90s comic book movies sometimes. Nobody wants to raise the spectre of Schumacher’s “nipples and codpieces” aesthetic, and now costumes are all military surplus and backdrops are all concrete and rebar.

1995 - Tank Girl(?) probably Batman Forever, though

“I have a particular set of spidey senses...”

There is a man in complete control of his body, the perfect living weapon.

So their business model depends on the people who enter their usernames and passwords into Yahho.com? They’ll be influencing elections in no time.

I’ve read that, yeah, and honestly that shit doesn’t bother me. Snipes was allegedly pissed off that he was being stuck making a back-door pilot for The Ryan Reynolds/Jessica Biel Vampire-Killing Hour Sponsored By iTunes, and I personally don’t blame him. His weird anti-charisma as Blade is the main reason those first…

So MacFarlane wanted to keep Stewie’s sexuality “vague” because “he’s a 1-year-old,” but it was cool to make a joke about Stewie being raped in a closet by an adult because...of something, I assume.

Elba is great, but man, I don’t want to hear about a Blade revival that doesn’t come with Snipes.

I saw this a year or two ago on TCM at 2 in the morning and it’s something. Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t Abar win one fight by using mind control to make a cop not racist anymore? I’m pretty sure it happens during that gunfight at the end in the Watts Towers.

The only superhero whose superpower is staring at bad guys and bellowing “KILL EACH OTHER...KILL EACH OTHER” over and over again until they do. You have to admit it’s efficient.

Buddy, you’d surprise me more by telling me something in 2018 DIDN’T have Nazis in it.

Consider this echo chamber...

You start training kids karate active shooters, and then any who end up dead have only themselves to blame! Hey, we taught you how to judo flip the next Adam Lanza, kid, don’t look at us. Oh right, you’re dead. Well, maybe your parents will take your little sister’s karate classes more seriously.
