My favorite bit was when Giulani admitted he lied about those two in court, then ran full tilt to social media to claim he didn’t admit to anything.  Really just put it in full view that he’ll say whatever as long as he’s not currently in a court.

I know how lawsuits work but I really wish they worked different so they didn’t have to include so many adjectives. Like instead of saying “This event gave me emotional troubles, depression, shock, paranoia, anxiety, hot flashes, and light to medium despondence” it could just be “This event got me struck by goddamn…

BG3 is doing some of that a little too. Tell anyone from Baldur’s Gate that you’re also from there and they’ll immediately be all “Well... whattaya know... guess we ran in different circles. Let’s be done with that conversation, okay?”

Given that Dahl did modify his work (he changed the Oompa-Loompas to match the 1971 movie instead of just straight up being African pygmies, in 1973) that sort of seems like a slight. I guess maybe Anderson didn’t know?

I’ll be honest, I figured this was a standard AV Club typo, not a correctly quoted line from a Greek speaking dude.

She understood “that was needed”? Not “what was needed”?  Both are functional sentences but one makes it sound like the director was worried that Stone would be too silly to realize how imperative her getting her tits out post-haste was.

Ooh I can help. You got it from a tired, weary old joke about how MTV doesn’t play music videos anymore that has now been around longer than the actual time that MTV played music videos.

I assume that’s Yoda talking about them too?  Fine, he’s old as hell.  He can be a space grandpa going on about the jedi equivalent of fast-twitch muscles.  He’s already dead anyway, we can kill those darlings.

The reason he doesn’t just retire is the same as Feinstein, both sides have so thoroughly weaponized the standards of Senatorial process that if they retire, the other team can ram stuff through or make or start blocking committee assignments.  This would be a perfect time for the two to agree to retire at once, just…

Qui-Gon died before he could use that thing twice, and market testing showed that everyone hated midichlorians so they barely mention them after that, leaving him as the only Jedi who canonically ever gave a shit about them. Which means there’s still a path to fixing their existing by saying Qui-Gon was just a stuffy…

She looks like the cartoon, which is neat!  But the cartoon was very minimalist in look and so while everyone else is textured and has dirt and wear on their clothes, she looks like she bought herself a Hera Syndulla costume this morning.

Yeah, I wish people would quit trying to make Grey Jedi happen.  24 really wrecked a lot of brains.  It’s not super awesome and badass if your Jedi can shoot a little force lightning as a treat.  The whole point of the Force and the Dark Side (there’s no such thing as the Light Side in the canon, just the force and…

He’s a vat grown clone of Ezra, that has been altered with Sith alchemy to be faster, stronger, more force-sensitive, and tougher than his unwilling genetic progenitor.  In fact in all ways, he’s Better Than Ezra.

“It’s so popular we’re actually going to allow it be aired, at least the first five episodes, before canceling and deleting it for tax writeoffs!”

Man by that logic we’d never have to hear from weirdo right wing billionaires again.  We do though, so I think that there isn’t any real “I can relax and shut the fuck up” amount of money for these people.

He knows eventually he’ll become a right wing media darling and start being able to live off just that.

Because of puritanical credit card processing companies, OnlyFans will occasionally feint towards a pivot to no sex content, then retreat after they find a new processor, because they know where the bread is creampied.  Buttered.

So which part of Heavy Metal, I wonder?  I hope it’s the part where John Candy can’t walk around with his dork hanging out.

The stuff on screen in integral to any reshoot of the show.  If I think leather trenchcoat Joker with metal teeth and a thousand tattoos looks stupid, I don’t think there’s a scene you could have cut where I’d be like “Oh, I like that awful Hot Topic X Machine Gun Kelly vibe they were angling for now!” 

I love Howitt and am super looking forward to this, but what the heck is that PBY doing over mainland Germany?  There better be a real good monster style answer to my pedantic WW2 concerns!
