The visuals, but also the storytelling ambition, the scope, the energy, and the way the cinematography is specifically used to pull viewers in — all of these things are particularly significant for me in film. Prometheus hasn't aged well for me as a story, but I found it to be a compelling experience while I was in…

If you hated the book, I wouldn't recommend the movie. It's full-immersion sensory overload and it's very beautiful, but it's the exact same story.

@avclub-7fe30f83b8e5444c948077a061740793:disqus That's exactly what the space is for, but we call it Spoiler Space to make it clear that it's a place where people can feel free to talk about major plot points, the end of the film, etc. because they're ostensibly talking to people who have already seen it, or aren't…

I'm a straight woman, and I always see Desire as female, probably because the art is so directly inspired by Patrick Nagel's art nouveau images of women, which I've never seen as all that androgynous.

My second favorite bit in Sandman (after "Nobody clever be's cardboard boxes") is still the thing in "The Hunt" about the small bone Vasilly had carved into the shape of a small bone. "But it was a small bone already." "He carved into the shape of a different small bone, all right?"
