All of that is like putting frosting on dog shit. This is a kids’ toy commercial you’re discussing.

Are you twelve years old? Why don’t you look up everyone who’s worked with Abrams and come back when you’re ready to correct yourself?

There is now a ban in place on the word “deconstructionist” in movie discussions until writers stop applying it to Zack Snyder movies, a Star Wars movie that was slightly different from the last Star Wars movie, etc.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It’s bizarre that some people continue to assert that FF7 “made no sense” because of the localization issues.

“Sacrificing logic for plot” is not how plots work.

Surprise! It turns out they never mention Seven joining with the Borg again!

What the comment’s saying is that Dowd used the links between the four principal actors as a writer’s device in the article, and it’s a little weird to stop before he gets to Prinze, since he literally married Gellar because of this movie.

Especially since Hewitt’s the least talented of the four

Duncan was a true believer that stuff. She believed she was in regular communication with her daughter on the other side.

Hewitt’s the weakest actor of the four, and it’s weird to me that no one wants to admit it

It’s probably sometimes a good thing and sometimes a bad thing...?

It gets pretty dark when he starts slinging rock

What about that comment offends you?

This studio policy of “push an IP through more and more channels until that fails miserably, cancel projects with the Grim Realer scythe until one project meets expectations if one ever does, switch back to hubristic overreach mode, repeat” is kind of nuts, like, even on the end of the Hollywood suits who get shuffled…

For peace and justice, I will eat this entire cake that fell on the floor

Dude, I remember your comments from this site, years of them.

This is insane, paranoid reasoning on your part. How can you not see that? Do you not understand what the fuck a TV critic does?

Why is that “weird”? It’s fucking normal. TV critics do not exist to advertise a TV show or to agree with you on it. Their job is supposed to draw eyes to ads through skilled expression of an opinion of interest whether or not you agree!

It’s because you still remember the idea of a TV critic, of critically engaging with something in a mode that’s not the new A.V. Club commenter mode of “here for it, as the kids are saying recently” vs. “FAN RAGE”.
