The scripts and writing are shit and thus, the characters are shit. The new films are built upon a foundation of wet shit. 

“What if there’s a guy in the control room wearing an old-school Jurassic Park tshirt?”

after all this time, there is still only 1 Jurassic park movie worth watching.

LOVE the casting genius of having the insidious secret inside agent be played by a fat loud-mouthed ham in lurid Hawaiian shirts. And, if it wasn’t for the mudslide washing his truck off the road, he was actually a really competent spy whose plan worked.

I once read that, for one of the sequels, Wayne Knight pitched a return of Nedry (mangled and disfigured) to Steven Spielberg with the line: “It was a very big meal and a very small dinosaur” explaining his survival, but it was deemed too unrealistic.

Its too bad they’d have to do a pre-quel or something in which Nedry is still alive just horribly disfigured. I want Newman back, dammit, but I hate pre-quels.

Colin Treverrow is still allowed to unleash his evil on the world? Haven’t we suffered enough in this annus horribilis?

I write romance novels and erotica for a living and, while I don’t write the weird rapey kidnappey books, there are a lot lot lot of them. I’m not surprised this sort of ‘love story’ is leaking onto tv.

Happy to hear that you don’t want to meet black people with opinions you disagree with about a horrifying social evil that effects them everyday. I hope they don’t ever have to meet you, because that sounds like it will an interaction that will be, at the very least, exhausting.

I’m fine with big name actors doing voice work, it’s just that they rarely do the actual ‘work’ part.

Wouldnt hiring a black actress create the same issue they have with Bell? Or ...are we saying mixed race people are to be defined by whichever half is the minority? 

It wasn’t a decade ago that the big ‘pop-feminism’ talking point was. “Its our bodies, we can sleep with whomever we want and its none of your damned business!’ The one caveat, apparently, is the guys you’re choosing to bonk should have a less skeevy agenda than you about it. I jokingly called this ‘drunk college…

It is really incredible, how much internet-addicted people overestimate the popularity of progressive causes. Twitter has broken your minds and left you thinking that almost everyone believes as you do, but there’s a huge number of people who don’t agree but simply don’t constantly shout their political opinions…

Well, except that she’s right. “People who menstruate” is a ridiculous jargon phrase.

Apparently the bulk of his scenes was taken out. Here’s hoping he gets more to do in the Snyder Cut.

He did a lot with the nothing he was given to do.

NANDOR TURNED BENJI!!!!

It would be nice if you could bold the original programming. Makes it easier to find brand-new stuff that might be interesting to check out.

The legal discussions about whether this constitutes a whole new movie are sort of funny — because it was Alexander and Ilya Salkind, producers of the Christopher Reeve “Superman” movies, who were responsible in the first place for the legal clause in Hollywood contracts specifying how many movies you’re working on.…

Surely the primary audience for this is also the one most likely to pirate it rather than sign up to HBO.
