“That is just not true”

Or maybe just lazy. The fact that the two most-watched shows of 2018 were Big Bang Theory and NCIS speaks volumes.

Oh, for fuck’s sake, with the goddamn polar bear already. Why is that always the default question when someone brings up all the things they missed on the show and/or didn’t bother looking up? I know this stuff isn’t obvious, but come on. It’s all been readily available online for nearly a decade.

Lost was always about its characters. Everything else was window dressing.

I’ve been thinking about it a lot since these articles started, and I’m going to go ahead and make my call: The Winds of Winter is the best episode of the show.  It’s hands down the best “post-book” episode, but I think that in general it is also the show at its strongest.  The Sept explosion is only one of several…

I get that you have strong opinions on abortion, but the topic of the discussion is not relevant to my point. Would you feel empathy for her if she agreed with you? Would you feel Hasselbeck’s embarrassment if it was Walters on the wrong side? Can you put yourself in her position? Can you imagine feeling strongly…

Or the next day. Or the next or the next or the next. Or one of the many, many days after that. 

I can see like 5 other people in that video recording the same thing in landscape mode, but of course it’s the only person recording in portrait that uploads it.

Everyone likes to comment and pile on about the “lasting cultural impact” of Avatar (basically echoing verbatim a popular Forbes article from five years ago that in itself seems to strangely have had a lasting impact on how the internet perceives the movie). The reason why this, Titanic, and presumably the next Avatar…

Snuffaluffagus could feed an army for a year. Enough time for the island to transform into an agricultural economy.

The only answer is the Regal Beagle. 

It’s not going to offend any of the regulars.

I think I’m at a 6 on a 1-10 scale. I’ve been lukewarm with my reaction to many of the movies in the MCU and I remember my thoughts wandering off during Infinity War. I’d say I’m curious to see what happens and just do not want to miss out on this as a piece of culture. Luckily, these movies tend to get so convoluted…

Oddly, or maybe not all that odd, I feel almost zero excitement for this film. I only feel a vaguely grudging obligation that we are all being required to go.

It does...

Electric Vindaloo?

Life of Brian

A Shane Black movie where Riggs & Murtaugh have flying robot suits and are played by Robert Downey Jr. and Don Cheadle? What kind of asshole wouldn’t be excited about that?

I saw Song of the South in the theaters back in the early 80s when I was young. I’m curious how many people have actually seen it? This is by no means a, “if you haven’t seen it, you don’t know” defense. It’s been out of the public sphere for so long, I am legitimately curious the number of people that have actually…

Yes, but as a combination of the two shows, it’s “Yeeehaaaaw?”
