Am I missing something by not hating Ben Affleck all these years? I don’t particularly like him either, but that’s my point: I don’t get how he generates strong feelings either way. Last month Matt Damon said more awful shit than Affleck has said in the last 20 years, and yet people still seem to like him more. What…

Since she dropped a song earlier, I’ve been listening to Erykah Badu all day. “Back in the Day” is such a dope track.

You just summed up my problem with peanut butter M&M’s. They’re fine, but why would you get those when Reese’s are right there next to them in the aisle? It’s an odd choice.

She also has a kid with the D.O.C., but that’s one ruined career people can’t blame on her.

This month is the 15 year anniversary of Mama’s Gun, which is still my favorite Badu album.

“Rhymes running wild like a child in a walker.” Inspectah Deck is so, so good.

Familia came in tonight with a lead. He faced six batters, and got all six out on five pitiful grounders and a strikeout... and he ended up with a blown save. Baseball is so fucking cruel.

I’d say Man of Steel wasn’t even a good looking movie. The ridiculously desaturated color palette took an already joyless movie and made it damn near gray. It’s just awful.

This is completely off topic, but I just found this out last week so I feel the need to share it with as many people as possible: You know who was originally supposed to play Miss Scarlet? Carrie Fisher! She dropped out a few weeks before filming started because, unfortunately, she had to check herself into rehab. But…

Replay was back. The Royals used it a few innings earlier after Wright was called safe on a stolen base attempt when he was clearly out. The play was overturned.

And no one calling the game even acknowledged that it was a close play, which was a little weird.

I’m kind of shocked Terry Collins didn’t challenge the David Wright error. At full speed it seemed like Escobar was clearly safe, but when they showed the replay I honestly thought Duda’s foot was still on the bag when he caught Wright’s throw. Even if it wasn’t, it was close enough to challenge, especially when it’s…

You know what? I didn’t know he was in that film because his kids picked it. It still sucks that it was his last film, but you’re right. That does make it a lot better.

Seriously, has anyone ever started a comment with “Ummm” without then immediately illustrating that they didn’t actually pay attention to what they’re responding to?

No, I meant in the comics. Falcon is a much older character than Blade, even if the latter ended up on film first. He predates Blade by five years.

Falcon is older than both of them.

Falcon is much, much older than Blade and Steel. I’m talking about the first African-American super hero in comic book history, not film history.

I meant in the comics, not in the films. Falcon is, definitively, the first African-American super hero in major comic book history. These films were comic books first, you know.

Raul Julia’s last movie was Street Fighter, and Orson Welles’ last movie was Transformers. I feel like that’s the great actor equivalent of dying while sitting on the toilet.
