“You know what? Maybe we all need some space to pull the knife out of the back of the most celebrated Canadian alt-rock band of the 90’s, you selfish, jaded ass!”

The Quiet American by Graham Greene. Well told story of a time (1950s) and place (Vietnam) few Americans know a lot about.

Like many DCCU stars, she was always horrendously miscast.  The only reason it showed less with her is that she's a genuinely good actress.

Holy shit it went insane. To every comment I've posted. 

Tahani showing off her fencing skills by whacking a demon dude in the head with a pool cue was nice too (which would be a points deduction, but it wasn't a formal match)

Yes, but blogs still spinned it like he’s a rapist or harasser or some shit for clicks and the dumb people that read these blogs now think he’s a rapist.

Didn’t the girl who accused him get called out for just describing what most would consider a shitty date and that all contact was consensual?

This news is only shocking to people not watching the show.

Professors of Moral Philosophy must have a lot of free time to work out.

As an actual Hispanic person, I’ve never met anyone who identifies themself as such. Apparently the hipsters held a secret ballot when no one was paying attention. 

Her Rah-tah-tahs had me ROLLING. It was the look on her face, with her eyes wide and bulging. Got me every time.

I agree 100% with this article, he is trash and he shouldn’t be allowed to Direct another film, but the reporting in this article does choose to use the vague term of “Hollywood” in place of “Feature Films.” All those women have TV credits (in some cases a lot of TV credits) in-between their film credits and some of

Well, Jennifer’s Body was a pretty bad movie.

OP’s post was a little all over the place but are we really still doing the “criticizing racism is why Trump won so don’t” thing?

Not to get too far into politics, but this double episode was the perfect antidote to the other stuff I was watching on TV earlier in the evening--intelligent, funny, and relentlessly optimistic about the ability of flawed humans (and demons) to make themselves better. 

That closing joke may be the greatest closing joke in the history of closing jokes.
