Fuck yeah that scene is a heartbreaker 

Yea, that’s a major miss. “Tainted Love” and “The Chain” are two highlights for sure. My personal favorite? “Twilight Zone” Hearing that song for the first time since I was a child was my “Ratatouille” moment.

“something smells off with this”
Probably the bathwater. 

I’ve been thinking recently which season of RTD’s Doctor Who is my least favourite, and as much as I like Ncuti I think so far I have to admit that RTD hasn’t gotten better with time.

Hang on ...where the hell is Umbrella Academy??

Thank you! The endless praise from the AV Club was the reason I gave it a shot a decade ago and I’m so glad I did.
The song choices they made throughout the series were really specific, and then in the finale they go with the biggest era-appropriate song imaginable, and it works. It works so well. I remember rolling my…

It’s very entertaining if a bit grim. Dude is... well, him.

There’s a three part podcast episode of The Dollop about the star of the moment in question that’s worth a listen if you haven’t already.

“I’m the author of two franchises.”

He literally only kills one (1, uno, singular) person in First Blood, and that’s mostly through sheer dumb luck. And not even with a gun or knife.

The bit that cemented Cruise to me as one of the finest actors around was when he swaggers into Brendan Gleeson’s office, all Madison Avenue slickness and Don Draper Charm, with the friendliest smile on his face, and then Gleeson tells him he’s not here for PR, he’s going in with the first wave.

I hate this, but I suppose at the very least a biopic might help people know Elon didn't found Tesla, no matter how much he tries to pretend he did. 

The Stink of Musk starring Barry Keoghan as Elon. Can’t wait.

This will give work to hundreds of Black actors as they’ll be needed to portray the slaves toiling in his childhood Apartheid emerald mine.
