Hil-Liar-y.

I'm partial to "Hilliary" myself. It's got bones.

Trump would probably make a fantastic late night host. We'd still all know he was a terrible human being, but he wouldn't be responsible for the free world and e could channel all his snark and problems with authority into something constructive.

My reaction to Hillary officially securing the nomination was basically one monumental, thundering, Arrested Development "Her?" This would have been the same deal.

That's absolutely the case. They interpret the principle of "Supply and demand" to mean having total control over what people will demand by only supplying three or four distinct options. By limiting the entire market to slick, blue-filtered thrillers, toothless raunchy comedies, CGI animated children's films, and…

Most people didn't pay enough attention to learn what actually happened; they just heard "Pete Townshend" and "Child pornography" sharing enough sentences to think "Huh. I guess he's a pedo," and move on.

I haven't seen the film yet, but my understanding is that it isn't even a musical.

I mean it was pretty definitively demonstrated that he wasn't a pedophile, so if everybody wants to pack that joke in, I'm down.

Or grain silos.

Whatever happened to Saturday night? When you dressed up sharp, and you felt alright?

Apparently the director pushed really, really hard to call it that, but the studio refused. Showing once again that Hollywood sucks not because they pander to the lowest common denominator, but because they have no idea what the lowest common denominator wants.

"When Homeworld sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're bringing bubbles, they're bringing swords, they're fusions, and some, I assume, are good people."

See, this is why our politicians never get anything done: they're always just sitting around when they talk about stuff. The only way to accomplish anything in Washington is if you plan it while walking very quickly through hallways and offices, with no clear destination in mind but a tremendous sense of purpose.

Well, as we know from Guardians of the Galaxy, Kevin Bacon was one of earth's greatest heroes.

Yep, and it only took nearly two decades of successful Pixar movies to demonstrate that. And as for the aesthetic of Broadway, well, I'd say they've hardly Let It Go.

It's not just the songs, though. Disney totally fell in love with the style/substance spectacle and stock storylines of modern Broadway musicals, leaving behind the enveloping quality of their earlier films.

I never even cared for Lion King. It has a serious case of comic-relief syndrome, and it marks the point for me at which dissecting the politics of a childhood favorite goes from being fuel for a clickbaity buzzfeed article to being genuinely troubling. Mulan is a much more balanced popcorn movie overall; honestly,…

I agree across the board—except on Rescuers Down Under. That movie kicks ass, and that's not nostalgia talking, since I grew up with the first one and I think the sequel is a definite improvement.

Yep, and then their writers discovered Broadway and didn't think about anything else for fifteen years.

Which is odd, because in my book The Great Mouse Detective is leaps and bounds better than anything from the so-called "Disney Renaissance".
