“The level of faithfulness on display here is actually so high, in fact, that it’s not clear who showrunner Craig Mazin is necessarily making this series for”

I mean the fact that “most influential” is more quantifiable makes it also way less fun. The point of criticism is to argue, to build a case, to dive deep into a text and really set forth what makes it work or not. Granted that means listmaking can itself be sort of a folly- when you’re dealing with movies on the…
The article wouldn’t even have a purpose
Putting on my AV Club glasses, which involves taking a shit, not wiping and then contorting yourself to look into your own asshole, I think it means:
“They are justified, hell, almost required, to make up some details about this guy” but “they didn’t do it how I liked”
Keep this movie’s review OUT your fucking MOUTH!
Robert Gould Shaw was the white colonel’s name and he actually existed, led the 54th, died with them and was buried with them.
Well, this review is a real slap in the face.
I guess it will have to live with being the dead space at the top of this website for a couple weeks.
“…which appears to have been crafted by someone confused by the difference between “scary” and simply “wet.””
I mean, it’s a pretty big deal when the missing Monica Vitti from L’avventura shows up at the end of Taxi Driver to team up with Joan of Arc and take down Michael Corleone. It just won’t make as much sense if you haven’t seen them all in order.
To be clear, the quote given by Vaughan does not support what you’ve chosen to write in the article. He does not at all say that Stiller has heard his pitch and is interested.
What?
“Of all the threats from both your past and future, you’ve never faced anything like this”
Eh, it’s the movie version of being famous for being famous. If enough people engage then it eventually becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy.
Hopefully all of the hundreds of people who didn't adopt Fishtopher adopted some other animal who needed a home and wanted to be loved.
The bee stuff was real. Todd actually negotiated an extra $1K for every time he got stung, which was 23 times. The beekeepers on set used all newborn bees, as much as possible, and they had to time shots around that as much as possible. It takes about 12 hours for the honeybees the were using to have their stingers…
What? Do you even know what gentrification means? The “everyone” you claim it has “positive effects” doesn’t include the people that actually live there.
No, gentrification is an evil of capitalism, there is nothing good about it. “Investing in lower socio-economic areas,” without keeping it affordable for everyone does not improve the lives of the poor, it further marginalizes them. If they could revitalize areas while keeping it affordable, it’s not gentrification by…
The direct sequel done by Jordan Peele in 2021
It’s a really well done, imaginative movie. It did strike me as pretty of its time dealing with the racial elements. Black characters tend to be types, functional to the plot but not fleshed out, and acting as a sort hive mind at the end when they all parade out in tribute to someone who is, by that point, an…
