Bushwick Bill as the Scarecrow is legitimately brilliant.

Not only that, but his superpowers were all based on him getting very angry and screaming. Fuck Tyroc, man.
For some absurd reason you mentioning Sisters dropping tonight made me think of Queen Latifah and Monie Love’s “Ladies First”:
Falcon was the first African-American superhero in a comic. Black Panther was definitively the first black superhero.
Thank you for writing about this. In a five year span, Boseman is going to play arguably the most important black athlete ever, arguably the most important black entertainer ever, the first ever black superhero, and the first ever black Supreme Court justice. Hollywood has officially found its Negro To Play All The…
The thing I’m scared about is that the racial dynamics will be exactly the same as they were in the original Ghostbusters: the three white people will be highly educated, Ivy League professors, and the black person on the team will be someone who just walked off the street looking for a job, and is a borderline jive…
Also worth noting: after the game, he went and saw the kid again and gave him the sneakers he had just played in.
To be fair, damn near every Mark Millar comic is hot garbage.
Honestly, I had no idea who Saint West was either until someone sent me this article thinking I’d laugh. I knew Kim had a kid, but I had no idea what the kid’s name was. I also had no idea Kim and Kanye were in a relationship until after she had their first kid.
“Sounds like some opinion from a nerd’s blog.”
Exactly! That’s absurd!
When I saw the trailer, and Clark says to Pa Kent “What was I supposed to do, let them drown?” and Pa Kent says “Maybe,” I decided I wasn’t going to see the film. I did eventually, and it was every bit as awful as I thought it would be. Nearly everything about Pa Kent is wrong and disturbing.
For what it’s worth, Nolan was opposed to the idea of Superman killing Zod, but he got overruled. Apparently that was too dark even for him. And I while superhero films definitely did get darker because of his trilogy, I don’t hold it against him, in the same way that I don’t think it’s Alan Moore and Frank Miller’s…
Batman Begins is an overrated movie in general, but the third act is hilariously dumb. Batman looking at Ra’s and saying “but I don’t have to save you” completely misses the point of Batman, in the same way that Superman snapping Zod’s neck does.
“it’s hard to imagine any team refusing to follow through and choosing a very stupid hill to die on.”
The security is going to “some” private schools. Some.
And each one would feature the word “thug”.
It is stunning to me that people would rather eat at Chipotle than go to an actual Mexican restaurant. People in California who eat Chipotle make even less sense than people in New York or Chicago who eat Dominoes and Pizza Hut. At least Dominoes is cheap. Chipotle is bland AND expensive. What is wrong with people?
“He got it exactly backwards” more or less sums up all of his comic book adaptations. Man of Steel willfully and arrogantly misses the point of Superman.
You might as well just come out and say “Any place that isn’t overrun by obnoxious young white people is a terrible place to be,” because that’s more or less what you’re saying.
