Moore also arguably does a better job of finding the humanity in his characters, even amid all the horrific shit.

Hence why Moore’s Rorschach is a fundamentally broken man living a slightly above feral existence on the fringes who ultimately commits the superhero version of suicide by cop when he can no longer

It does feel strangely apropos in a way -
“I don’t just make movies - I FUCK MY AUDIENCE WITH THEM!”

...I hope you’re happy.
Now whenever I remember that Cameron is promising four more of these, all I can think is “THIS IS NOT AN EXIT”

I feel kind of bad for Stephen Lang in this. Not for any fault of his own, but after my first time seeing this, I went back and revisited Manhunter, forgetting he played Freddie Lounds in that.

So now, I look at him as the gruff military villain and my brain just keeps flashing back to red-haired Stephen Lang in a

Honestly, I’m kind of hoping after Endgame, the MCU starts scaling back to standalone stories more again.
Yes, the metaverse gimmick is fun, but individual MCU movies are often at their weakest when their narrative is subordinate to the greater metanarrative (lookin’ at you, Iron Man 2!)

Loosely dovetailing on your point re: remaking/rewatching Wizard of Oz.

One big difference between the two titles chosen here is - I think culturally we’re at a point where remaking Gone With the Wind is...pretty Goddamn unlikely.
Yes, for many it’s regarded as one of the old time Hollywood spectacles and widely

We’ve lost him forever...

To be completely fair, it’s not like what Streisand said here isn’t a sentiment that hasn’t been echoed by people in other walks of life.

The statement he was responding to was framed in bad faith there.
That view of molestation isn’t exclusive to celebrities by stretch, so using it as a ‘all celebrities are idiots’

I genuinely can’t remember - does AV Club no longer do Spoiler Space discussions?

Because Goddamn, there’s a lot of things from this I have to bite my tongue on because they would give shit away.

I can agree with some of this, but as far as not running through the head, I’m gonna part paths with you. This isn’t as potent as Get Out, but there’s still enough in it to unpack just on its own that I’m gonna be puzzling over this for a while. Not at the level of something like the accident from Hereditary (...I can

Part of me wants to believe this.
Part of me then also remembers how Michael Fassbender’s Oscar clip from 12 Years a Slave was the scene of him demanding Chiwetel Eijiofor whip Lupita Nyong’o and how everyone applauded as the camera cut to Fassbender in the crowd with a look on his face that seemed to scream ‘No, this

Honestly, their Halloween episodes were a big part of why when I first heard about Get Out, even before we had trailers, my reaction was “Jordan Peele’s making a horror film? It tracks and I’m already on board.”

Besides just the dark sense of humor, some of those sketches did well at actually creating a horror movie

This was part of why I felt kind of mixed at the end of season 6. When everyone was cheering Arya’s revenge on House Frey, I was just sitting there thinking ‘...and like that, a house famous for its teeming brood just got wiped out by a single child becoming a Faceless Man on ‘roids. I guess...?’

Like, the whole scene

The problem for the showrunners here is, if they knew it wasn’t going to serve the greater narrative, they probably should have just left it out in the first place.

Instead, we got treated to Jaime and Bronn in a murderous, non-musical version of a ‘Road To...’ movie that meandered through the better part of a season

“Who is this guy on our show, anyway?”
*watches clips*
“WHAT DE FUCK?”

For optimal effect, preface the read of Bad Blood with Live, Work, Work, Work, Die. The picture that book paints of the culture within Silicon Valley causes a LOT of the shit that Holmes got away with to make more sense (one part the weird adherence to pseudo-scientific nonsense, particularly when it pertains to the

Is he cool?

If nothing else, you can at least feel relieved that this won’t become a precedent (...not that it should have been in the first place. Cernovich already tried and failed to land this with Sam Seder, which Disney could have found out with an intern in Google in less than an hour and save themselves a lot of bad PR in

The only other movie coming to mind to pull something like that is mother!, though I’d be willing to bet money there are others besides those

After combing the comments, a few examples surprised not seen turn up:
