Dear FredDerf:

I mean, let’s be honest:  if you flew me somewhere and put me up in a hotel, I’d give the Smurfs a B+.

Sure, because people are more than willing to keep up the murderous ways of their dead grandparents. I mean, Mormons can’t keep their kids off coke yet these folks keep them murdering??

Well, inasmuch as she can control the monster by controlling her own mental condition, I’d argue that whether “real” or not, it’s still a function of her mental illness.

Your post is better than the screenplay for this movie. A+

Babdook seriously pissed me off when it revealed the Babadook wasn’t real. Monsters are fun, mental illness isn’t.

A DEMON taking HUMAN FORM is a let-down?? Again, is the ending of Rosemary’s Baby a let down?

Wouldn’t the “every 90 years” thing give you pause?  Who is alive from the last go-round that could remember how it’s supposed to go?

It’s worse than you think. I have not seen the movie, but read the script, and they sell the experience as a “summer festival” in Scandanavia. What does that mean to you? To mean that means a huge outdoor music festival, big party.

The ending results in a DEMON taking HUMAN FORM.  Did you think the ending of Rosemary’s Baby was crap, too?

Haven’t seen the movie, but I read the script, and I was incredulous at the stupid choices the protagonists make. I mean, okay, maybe we can buy that these grad students would travel all the way to Scandanavia to hang out with with Amish people for a week; and maybe we can buy that they stay there despite the fact…

How’d that work out last time?

Agreed. These folks are getting themselves worked up to pull a Susan Sarandon and end up voting third party (or abstaining from voting altogether) because the Democratic nom isn’t perfect, or is even far from perfect.  Which is to say that, like Suze, they’ll be helping to ensure Trump’s election.

And don’t forget, like this guy, your abuser will typically spend the next few days apologizing for their behavior and INSISTING they are going to change and get help. My ex was bipolar, and she would send me lengthy dissertations about the new treatment plan she was on, the new medication she was taking, her new type…

This story sounded very familiar to me, I went through a similar hell at the hands of my ex-wife, and then I hit the part about his bipolarity. She too was bipolar, and we could have the best Christmas morning with the kids, she would take a nap, and then wake up swinging, insisting I was the worst person in the world.

Sounds like a keeper.

Get back to us when you have kids.  You may be surprised to learn that they aren’t fully formed and sometimes make really dumb, self-destructive decisions that you might help them avert if you’re informed.

Yeah, MGMT’s album last year was fantastic, maybe their best. But I’ll you get back to being ignorant about their status.

Great.

Gee, I wish there were another Men in Black movie SAID NO ONE EVER.
