This would have been a bad choice. I love Pfeiffer, but we’d have a really hard time believing the supremely facelifted Michelle Pfeiffer as this middle-class mother. Someone from that milieu just wouldn’t have gotten the extensive work Pfeiffer has gotten down, and she’d stand out against everyone else. 

there sure is a surprising amount of shite CGI in that trailer. pretty distracting.

why the fuck are you devoting weekly coverage to this utter bottom-of-the-barrel trash?

“12 Monkeys but stupid.”

Secret Invasion has departed so much from the source material

since Elon took over, Twitter.

fuck off slideshow.

Her role in this movie was plain weird. On the one hand, she’s supposed to be the reasoned voice, the lone good agent trying to rein in the violent tendencies of the 60s Nazis. On the other hand... she’s knowingly collaborating with the 60s Nazis? And then she just, like, gets shot and killed because she’s deeply…

Frankly I think it’s all rather despicable, and deserves a much more critical take than this lukewarm article. No, it’s not okay that late-stage capitalism has gifted us, apparently unquestioned by mainstream audiences, the following this year alone:

I guess you could say Mattel moved her... TO A BIGGER HOUSE!

Last Night (1998) > Armageddon (1998) and Deep Impact (1998) combined.

This is a weird list, more like “here’s some Hollywood films directed by Canadians” rather than, y’know, the greatest Canadian films of all time.

meanwhile this guy is standing there reassuring the park will remain open for the Fourth of July:

Twilight Princess ripped off Okami (Link turns into wolf) without borrowing its aesthetic, which would have been better.*

As someone who is extremely skeptical of “legacyquels”, I was pleasantly surprised. Fun, lighthearted, with some great chase sequences. I was also happy to see that the thing I most loathed in the trailer - the too-cute callback to the “boulder” - was actually cut from the final film. We don’t need something so…

No, it’s just stupid.

It is truly disgraceful that The Root has allowed itself to turn into the propaganda arm of the Majors defence team. It’s one thing to run stories nominally featuring both sides. It’s quite another to actively disregard a bombshell news report and instead put out this piece intended to further undermine the (most…

Québec: Les Invasions Barbares (Barbarian Invasions, Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, 2004).

I’m only interested in this is the vibe is as relaxed as the aesthetic. The last thing I want is some nonsense where you have to like “collect 15 bike forks to unlock the game”.

I 100% agree with this. I realized after day one - when I streamed half the season in one sitting - that I’d overindulged in it, and a lot of the details had gotten all jumbled together in my memory.
