IMO, it’s like adapting Douglas Adams. A huge part of the humor comes from the perspective of the narrator making observations of the situation, which often dictates how the characters behave/react/etc. I’m not going to say it’s totally unfilmable, but it’s EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to get right

I have never yet heard a convincing explanation for Nolan’s implacable hostility toward the idea of comprehensible vocal tracks. People claimed that he was mixing for IMAX/Atmos but I’ve seen some of his films in IMAX and nope.

You guys have a fucking weird obsession with Whedon bordering on the worrying.

What in the world according to Garp!?!?

I’m a tabletop rpg veteran of the 4th Corporate War, I MEAN CYBERPUNK 2020. The rpg itself had a life generation system, called Lifepath, but was affectionately known as The Strifepath.

Yeah the shallowness is what turned me off on the game. That and them intentionally adding an unskippable sequence that’s based on a diagnostic tool used to induce seizures. It’s fucked up that they would put that in the game and than bury the seizure warning in the user agreement.

For the love of god don't include criminals please.  I've seen too many trailblazing women lists that include people like Bonnie Parker or pirate Anne Bonny.  Please no.  Please instead show off people like the only woman to win the Medal of Honor.  Or the founder of Country Music Maybelle Carter.  There are so many…

Bondi is so shit. It’s seriously the most overrated beach in the fucking country and all these absolute poser cunts from Sydney spent all their time instagramming pictures from there about how special it is in their ugly activewear. Fuck off losers. 

Was Johnathan Banks not available?

You almost sound like Sam Elliott could have been a good casting for Lee!

Can’t believe that the Queen with her enormous staff, wouldn’t have known all about the parade ahead of time. Apparently, in real life, Thatcher held it when the Queen was in Australia so she wouldn’t be competing with her on the dais for recognition/credit etc. This was really the lamest part of the episode.

Is the Governor-General on Twitter?

I’m not going to blame 9-11, but it didn’t help.

Thatcher’s spirit animal Ronald Reagan did the same thing on the island of Granada a year later. Phony “wars” to distract people from what’s going on at home. The press can’t resist, either.

You deserve to be free from the grey prison. I found everything you wrote really fascinating.

Not sure how shoes will fix Rudy’s brain damage. 

This is where I’m at as an autistic person. I completely get the argument with race-washing, and casting cis people in trans roles, but with autism I just don’t understand it. As long as it’s sensitive towards the people it’s portraying, and those people are consulted rather than just being a caricature, I have no…

Thanks for the all the cool facts! I’ve been meaning to read up on some Australian history, so thanks for all the tips on where to start

Well, I’m sure there’ll be some uproar gainst Riz once they hear of it.

I have always hated Thatcher, and watching Helena Bonham Carter dress her down was my favorite part of the first four episodes I’ve seen. God, Helena can do AMAZING things with body language and tone of voice. I want to see Princess Margaret be snooty forever.
