I feel like there are so many stories you could tell about how important journalists are and how journalism is under attack, including telling the real life stories about actual journalists, without resorting to an alt-uni version of the U.S. But I know A24 wants to make this big push into blockbusters, so maybe…

Yeah, I looked that up too and UGH, birds of a feather.

No I wouldn’t say that, I may be pretty smart but I definitely wouldn’t call everyone a ‘moron’. Why would you say something like that?  It’s extremely rude and uncalled for. 

Jesus Christ this industry.

In Season 2, Pizzolatto literally wrote the line, “I will come back here and butt f*ck your dad with your mom’s headless corpse.” I think whatever mantle he held regarding quality or “classic dialogue” ended right there. Also, so much of what made season 1 what it was the acting and direction. Many of the ideas were…

The people I know who are watching S4 don’t even know the creative team changed, they just know it got good again after 2 seasons they didn’t like. I tell them it’s a new creative team and they’re super surprised.

“Actual gay people aren’t offended by this” because Kristen Stewart *is* gay. Maybe take a hint that if “actual” gay people think she’s gay then maybe, just maybe, you are entirely wrong about her gayness. Or more to the point - that neither Kristen Stewart, nor gay people in general, give a shit what you think.

That’s not how being a lesbian works... It does not require that you have NEVER had an opposite-sex relationship - it just requires that you, as a woman, are sexually attracted to other women and that you have sexual relationships with women (although some might suggest that only the attraction is necessary - not my…

Whether or not it’s got a $70 base price I honestly am just not interested in another big live service game. I can imagine multiplayer being good for a game like this but it’s the main focus I’m not as interested. Just give us a modern Pirates!

So according to you, a lesbian can’t “really” be a lesbian if she’s ever had a boyfriend? I didn’t realize that you got to define who is and who is not a “real” lesbian. BTW - what you are referring to (i.e., never been with a man) are known as “gold-star lesbians” -- they are not the majority of lesbians in the…

WOW. You are one ignorant bitch.

Yeah, those got dire, especially when you had to fight the big BOSS ships at the four edges of the map that required you max out all the tedious upgrades and even then were difficult. I kind of preferred the laughably simple version of them that they put in AC: Odyssey.

Anyone who thinks “picking a side” is a realistic approach to this conflict is in a fantasy. Give this a read (really, do it! It won’t hurt you to read something you disagree with: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/10/why-israeli-officials-screened-footage-hamas-attack/675735/)

Getting past the security checkpoint is one thing, but how the hell do you get on the plane without a ticket? I mean they scan all of the boarding passes on your way onto the plane.

I mean... The 60s/70s were also a very different time than even the 90s or 00s...

> “pretending to be a lesbian”
Umm... if she’s only pretending to be a lesbian, she’s really dedicated to the hoax. I bet you think Andy Kaufman is still “pretending to be dead” too.

I didn’t love it. It was a solid show, and maybe I was taking it out of context bingeing it after the series had ended (it was a pioneer), but I’ve found it to be vastly overrated.

Everyone loved The Sopranos because yes, it was good, but it was also about the Italian mob, following a long tradition of beloved films of the same ilk. It was popular by doing a well-executed twist on the familiar. A predominantly Black show was never going to be as popular, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t better.

I usually don’t take too much stock in the order of lists like this because generating controversy is part of the fun. But this is honestly one of the worst lists of anything I’ve ever seen. The Wire and The Sopranos being one and two is fine, but everything else is bonkers. How could Curb Your Enthusiasm not even…
