So this was basically treading water for 45 minutes. Which is nice.

I liked the spin on trolling mainly because it fits with actual research, and because presenting trolling as the preserve of the pathetic is an easy answer, not the truth.

Impressive range of denials and excuses in response to this article.

You really didn't research this at all, did you.

It's funny because you're so genre-savvy/meta that you're basically saying it's a copout to NOT do the copout… even though it would also be a copout to do the copout.

I'm fascinated as to how - if at all - this will be resolved. Honestly though, of all the ways that a series could end, this is not the worst one.

On the plus side, I was surprised by how little I minded Reyes being back. I don't find the idea of her getting close to the Smoking Man that hard to deal with - it would actually make for an interesting episode to just show how that went down - "Musings Of A Cigarette-Handling Woman"?

I'm even later to the party - I put off watching this the same way you put off having a wee so that it can be a really big satisfying event.

Can someone talk me through why you would rather have Idris Elba than Patterson Joseph?

When I love with Mallory's beating is that, as far as we know, Mallory didn't know it was scopolamine. There's no indication of that. As far as she knows, Krieger could've spritzed her with *anything*… and that absolutely deserved being beaten into a corner and then impaled with a stiletto heel.

Taking Angry Birds out of the equation, I feel bad for kids who grow up with this kind of slick, un-idiosyncratic film-stuff that comes off like someone trying to fill the time between start and end credits as easily as possible.

"So my dream game would be Deus Ex meets Crackdown or The Division but about actually building up society again in a post-apocalyptic city. Fight off the gangs of looters, but also help settle homeless people in safer areas, restore utilities, negotiate trade between scavengers and rebuilders, make peace between…

Belle is pretty damn passive. She also - as has been pointed out - isn't a princess.

I'm not gonna pretend that I've watched a Disney film in a while, so I only know who, like, three of those are. I'm not sure why you'd include Alice here though, as while I love the stories, she's about as passive a female character as it's possible to be without just putting lipstick on a camera.

The thing is… okay, this is going to sound a bit wanky, but: gay visibility is an issue. People turn to the media for their role models when they lack them in "real life", and as much of a generalisation as this is, there are fewer gay role models in "real life" than there are in the media because we're basically…

Eat a buffet of dicks.

They are "princesses", even if they're not princesses. They're women who inherit a role largely through being passive, and then do nothing of consequence afterwards. That's what a princess is.

"(I am not a religious person and this is not a religious issue)."

So…

Honestly, I think most people would have been fine with Tilda Swinton playing the role (because no movie can be better *without* Tilda Swinton), but knowing that this douche appears to have thought that it would be a great way to piss off the "SJWs" just makes it feel grubby somehow. It's not just pissing off "SJWs"…
