Thank god we’re past the moral hysteria of days gone by.

This special is a lot of things: Cute. Pretty looking. Clever. Not dangerous. Emotional. An NPR Hard On. Horny for the Capitol Steps. But comedy? Ha ha ha. No.

Context Collapse sells advertising

It’s hilarious to be from St. Louis and see everyone just learning about all this and everyone having all the complete wrong takes about it. 

To paraphrase Red Letter Media, it’s a testament to how fucking boring this movie is that people started fixating on things like dead pixels

This fucking sucked, F

My thought exactly but I work in marketing where “moments” like this are painstakingly and cringe-inducingly manufactured every day of the year

“write him a letter and really unload on him. Tell him you’re angry, tell him why.”

*World’s longest, most exhausted sigh*

Where it falls apart, though, is in failing to recognize that Pac-Man is not, at core, a game about survival. Instead, it’s all about the points.

Jesus that crowdfunding thing depresses the fuck out of me. My friend, an ER nurse, died of a preventable infection because she couldn’t raise enough money online...not enough people saw it, her social circles weren’t big enough. Your life is a popularity contest in this country. Fuck all of this.

This is my favorite time to be alive. HI KEEBA!

Geoff Johns is one of the nicest dudes in the business. This feels like a railroad job.

I can’t recommend this movie enough, and I heard about it first on the AV Club. Thanks AV Club! It’s baffling how hard it is to find this within the HBO menu.

Well, well, well...if it isn’t the thing I’ve been saying for what seems like years and years.

That’s....the point.

Fun fact: Isaiah Whitlock is the uncle of Madison Ward from Kansas City’s Madison and the Mama Bear (on his mom’s side, I think). 

Yeah that brother knows what’s up. He’s PR savvy.

Hot Take: this movie sucked then and it’s going to suck now.
