Paul Rudd, Carrie Coon, and Finn Wolfhard. The three great “hey, they’re in everything!” actors of the last few years, all coming together in a single project. This movie is like a punctuation mark for the decade we’re leaving.

I never missed TJ Miller for a second. And I won’t miss Silicon Valley. They told their story, several times over, and unless they were going to discover some new arc for a season, it was time to wrap it up.
There was so much great stuff in that episode, but the ending with the cannon just didn’t ring true, somehow, and it took me a minute to figure out why.
I finally got Danny’s god damned Chumbawamba unstuck from my head and it was immediately replaced by Mr. Nobody’s even worse Hot Diggity song. So my pop culture weekend is probably going to end with me roaming the streets, begging strangers to kill me.
Better, or at least more functional advice, might be, “Make sure your name and @twitter (or DA handle or whatever) are featured prominently on any art you post online, so when it gets stolen, it’s at least still advertising for the real you.”
We went to see Wild Child at Meow Wolf in Sante Fe a few months ago and it was just fantastic. Never mind 2019, that was the best live show I’ve seen since Cosi fan tutte at the LA Opera, which was a few years back now.
I want to see Aya Cash! Apparently she’s playing Stormfront in season 2.
I liked ES Legends and I played it quite a lot for about a month and a half. Finally, though, I realized that I just didn’t like the artwork very much, and all the card games are so similar, I might as well be playing one with pictures I enjoyed.
No, I mean, I like most of them. (Not the hawk people.) But I’m spoiled now. The Legends of Tomorrow I know and love is the one with actors who are probably too good to be on network television at all, much less some cornball CW super hero thing. Garber and Routh are both so talented. The downgrade is just too real.…
Hear hear, Leah.
Maybe this will be year that NHL finally gets female pronouns to match the female players it’s had for like five years now, and I’ll be forced to buy it.
Lizzy Caplan should be at the top of this list for Annie Wilkes on season two of Castle Rock. Not only has her performance been amazing, she’s doing all the work for everyone in that cast. They piled that entire show on her back and she has carried it all season, like it’s nothing to her. While having to follow up…
Your work here has been stellar, Cecilia. That article you wrote about the women of Atari in the 70s was the only thing I’ve ever seen on kinja that was as fun to read as Joanna Rothkopf’s essay on wearing a tail for a week. (I really enjoyed your stories about the Gamestop and the strip mall, too, more recently.) You…
It’s a good show. It gets very silly, and never takes itself too seriously. If you find yourself complaining that super hero stories never take risks and always follow the same boring formula, LoT might be a good fit for you.
I came for Victor Garber. I stayed for Wentworth Miller and Brandon Routh. Once all three are gone, that’s a wrap for me and Legends of Tomorrow. There’s no one left that I’m willing to spend 42 minutes on. It was sure a cheap ticket for Garber, Miller, and Routh, though.
You know Auschwitz has a twitter account now, so that joke is far less absurd than it should be.
People have been cheering for corporations forever. What do you think professional sports teams are?
Translation: “Your ex, who set your standards so high that they’re now impossible to live up to, was a giant dick. Love, Dan.”
My instinctive reaction to that picture was, “wow, they all still look young!”
“Kyodo News adds that the voice actors were allegedly contractually obligated to live at Maki’s apartment.”
