In hindsight those scenes are quite sad as Tommen is obviously head over heels. To be fair if I was married to Natalie Dormer and she got blown up in a magical fire I’d jump out the window as well

Oh man the part where she countermands Margaery’s plan to FEED THE HUNGRY just because she doesn’t like her daughter-in-law.

(Cersei’s senseless vendetta against Margaery is probably the worst part of Season 5. I’m told the whole “ooh great idea let’s empower the church” thing is better justified in the books, but I…

Headey’s performance was great ... but nothing to date has been able to make me feel bad for Cersei. I sometimes rewatch that scene just to drink up her sweet, sweet maternal agony (and Joffrey’s, natch).

Fine? Headey has consistently knocked it out of the park with Cersei. Joffrey dying a horrible death was awesome, but Lena’s performance did manage to make me feel bad for Cersei. Like Tyrion always said, her love for her children was her only reedemable quality. 

I’ve never seen that scene. Is it good?

While not sci-fi effects heavy(not lasers and robots) Children of Men does have a ton of production design and traditional special effects(stunt work, explosions, squib work)

“It made me want to stop supporting the arts and start actively working against them.” I swear, this line had me laughing so hard I had to pause the episode until I was done.

Nah. We typically date Art Nouveau to 1894-1904. Art Deco’s influences are more generally traced to African art, Chinese and Japanese art and early modern movements like Constructivism, Futurism, De Stijl and the Bauhaus (which just threw Contructivism and De Stijl in a blender). #designpendant

But unless I’m very mistaken, “-zilla” didn’t come around until after Godzilla whose name was just an anglicized version of Gojira. “Reptzilla” would had people in 1919 confused by what the “-zilla” part meant.

The whole Wonderland is a homage to Dreamland that was a park in Coney Island around the time this film takes place. Disneyland is basically a copy of it.

They’re not saluting, they’re pointing at some fresh, bold artwork from an Austrian painter.

The earliest recognizably Art Deco works even predate WWI slightly, so it’s not a total anachronism, but I assume the review has it right that a set design from Tim “Always Makes it Look Like a Fritz Lang Film” Burton happens to look more like the mid-1920s.

Facts which seem to be mysteriously missing from this article.

Important facts:

Smollett agreed to do community service and forfeit his $100,000 bond.

Don’t worry, the Root is preparing an article right this instant.

“Reptzilla” in 1919? That’s even more of an anachronism than Art Deco elements.

So your brain gave you a whole bunch of material to work with. Now you’ll have to get to writing a series of books, that will be turned into an HBO series down the line. Have at it.

Kevin Dillon could be an extremely poor man’s version of Richard Madden.

I thought it was so-so. It didn’t hit a lot of funny highs but it had a sweet enough ending. Another nice episode where Loosie- erm Louise has her concerns about growing up while also inspiring an old crank.

- I really felt for Louise as she tried to get into her game.
