Maybe not, but my kids didn't know who Travis Scott, Ariana Grande or Billie Eilish were either, and they sure as hell do now. Besides which, the songs they've picked for this are peak pubescent boy tunes, and so pitch-perfect for the playerbase

The answer rhymes with “benormous bolygon brack.”

If this is bait, it’s nigh-irresistible

The TV shows are way too concerned with fleshing out and addressing prequel-era material (Filoni’s whole bag is redeeming the prequel era) to really redeem the sequel series.

It’s an interesting comparison, but it really puts into relief the fact that Phantom Menace never got its Wrath of Khan follow-up. Lucas fumbled the ball on the first film, and just kept fumbling it. 

well I guess the important thing is to promote the interview by linking to it and making claims to be concerned for this woman's mental health

Was that when he told Variety that his show was “emotionally 100% true” but that “you can’t do the exact truth, for both legal and artistic reasons.” He explained that “obviously, we were very aware that some characters in it are vulnerable people, so you don’t want to make their lives more difficult. So you have to…

He's moderately attractive and deeply unthreatening

The Doctor becoming a giant mope because his 20 year old girlfriend left was one of the worst developments in that era. Making 11 baffled and offput by Amy's advances (and human sexuality in general) was a much needed corrective

The Percy Jackson people are going to figure out where you live smh

This. Most of the novels above are pretty straightforward adventures. Any of Wolfe’s Urth output is basically unfilmable.

It’s not remotely Irish, so probably not? 

and that’s been the case for a long time now. it’s a systemic issue that will persist until the whole network is sold off and dismembered for parts.

on some level, this is probably because editing is no longer a thing at any of the Kinja outlets. most of these pieces seem to get a single look over before the author hits “publish,” as anything else would slow down the churn of content. the writing itself hardly seems to matter anyway, as all anybody needs to do is…

kylie’s surgeon deserves a lot of credit for leaving her looking pretty much like herself 

Turning every piece of content into a culture war site independent of its quality is the worst tendency of this post-Ghostbusters era in media. If it looks bad, don't watch it. Consuming stuff doesn't make you a good person.

By most accounts the movie was neither fun nor good (i.e. the things I said were important), so.... me, I would think? 

Oooh, you’re *naturally* obtuse. That makes so much more sense!

I can’t tell if you’re being deliberately obtuse or not? What I said was being fun and good will be a greater factor in its success (i.e. box office take) than its DCEU connections, because general audiences only care about the former, and only terminally online dipshits care about the latter. The movie is apparently…

No his point was that it would do poorly “since it’s the dying breath of a now irrelevant universe,” which is only a factor for a small segment of the audience; if people turned up to DCEU flicks because of inter-film connections, they'd have done better. My point is that other factors (fun, quality) are more…
