Same. Also would like to add an all-time classic:

So the reason why black people were enslaved and a civil war and Jim Crow laws and lynchings and screaming at schoolchildren and murdering activists and busing crises and you know what? I’m just going to fast-forward as otherwise this would take all day. Police shootings and public racist rants and all the rest....all…

One of the things about de-aging is that just planing down the wrinkles on the face isn’t the whole thing. DeNiro’s face still has that old man set to it. Plus all the clips I’ve seen is that he moves like a 70 year old. You can throw as much rendering time at him as you want, but he’s always going to have a senior…

Given the track record of everybody involved, I’m going to guess that it will develop a cult following and possibly even become a critical darling. But it will continually struggle in the ratings because no laugh track to mark the jokes and the boomers need those desperately. (Plus in this case, we have a show about…

I thought it was fantastic too. Watched the first season over a week then the entire 2nd season on a slow Sunday. The cast is phenomenal. And that last moment of the finale. Perfect way to finish it.

I’ve read a few reviews of the movie and they have been praising. It’s not the film itself that’s the issue. It’s not the text of the film. It’s the subtext of the film and how it plays out against the larger context of our society. This is just a debate we have to have in the United States in this day and age. We…

Just going by the comments, you can tell that Republicans are so in our heads right now. Nobody on the Left can see eye to eye. We’re all wringing our hands about the next step to take. Here it is: President Trump broke the law. Congress needs to fulfill its responsibilities and impeach. That’s its job. Checks and…

You could probably take a couple of minutes to watch the trailer (or even read the article) to get your answer, but I understand the rush to post the hot takes.

This is a lot to unpack. Stanley Donen sees Michelle Johnson in a magazine ad and pursues her for the role. They find out she’s underage and instead of just recasting with an actress of legal age, they go to court because dammit he’s found his muse and he’s going to show her breasts no matter what. Found this article…

Ivanka and Don Jr. clearly loathe one another, which is perfectly reasonable considering they are locked in an epic and ultimately futile battle for their narcissist daddy’s approval.

From all I’ve heard, this is a great movie with an award-worthy performance from Joaquin Phoenix. On the other hand, it would be disingenuous to not at least contemplate how a film like this could inspire copycats. Especially since we have an infamous example of such a thing vis a vis Aurora. (People have said that he…

Best way I’ve heard modern libertarians described is that they’re basically Republicans that want to smoke pot. You can go down the rabbit hole if you want more details, but that’s the gist of it.

Exactly. All that money I gave to a guy who died before I was born. Just the same as all the money I gave to a guy who personally benefited off of it. We live in a society, amiright.

Next guest:

We tend to focus on the artists (actors, directors, etc.) who worked with Weinstein as to why they didn’t do more. I can imagine even big time celebrities would be wary of risking their careers taking on someone as powerful as Harvey. (Although their consciousnesses didn’t stop from them from taking his 30 pieces of…

I hear you about season two. That production value though.

This feels like a gag trailer they’d put in a movie about the entertainment business. Having said that, I’m all for Emily Dickinson: Devil Whisperer.

Gaetz has been angling for awhile to be an heir apparent to Trump’s crazy fascist legacy. He’s probably the future of the Republican party. They do love their frothing blockheads.

So it sounds like the whistleblower is going to have to come forward. We’re in Pentagon Papers/Watergate territory now.

She must love that comfy feeling in the morning when she wakes up and he’s standing at the foot of the bed just staring at her. Also, she likes to tell people that Stephen does this charming thing during meals where he unhinges his jaw to gulp down a live rodent. “Ratachewie, he calls it,” she beams to her friends.
