The only way that Batman 2 poster would rule harder is if Ox Baker was playing Bane.

I've said for a while that any Red Dead Sequel should take place during the Depression. Your character is a bank robber of the John Dillinger sort - will you be a beloved folk hero or a feared monster?

Aliens is basically a western. Settlers under siege from the hostile natives, the cavalry comes in but are trapped in the fort…

Star Wars. The original trilogy is basically a fantasy novel in outer space.

"What do we do?"

Hasn't Tarantino kind of said he wants to do it eventually? And actually follow the plot point from Kill Bill Volume 1 where Vernita Green's daughter is actually going to grow up and come back after The Bride?

Wayne's World?

1: Yes to more Buckaroo Banzai.

Taking it outside TV and film, I'd love to see a next-gen revisit of the Interstate '76 franchise. Keep the general 'faded 1970s' aesthetic, update with modern gaming technology. The same resource management style from the first game, with a modern physics engine? Holy shit.

That is a… peculiar reading.

Easy favorite song on this album. Easy.

It's exactly the kind of twist I'd expect from VB to have the Sov come back and be like "you really can't tell the difference between a Bald and Golden Eagle?"

My personal disappointment does not imply any moral imperative. I think it sucks, but I'm not quitting the show over it.

I didn't say they had to. I said they don't seem to WANT to.

Yeah, I commented on this elsewhere in this thread - part of it is budget, part of it is that this is Hammer & Publick's fanfic about themselves, more or less (and they've said as much w/r/t how different character pairs represent aspects of their personality) so either they don't know how to write anyone not like…

I have literally no idea what Amber Gold is like beyond "Secret Agent Barbie, possibly Southern."

If I had to chalk it up to any one factor, it's probably Doc Hammer & Jackson Publick themselves. This is a terribly intimate show - about the only thing on TV that is more a portrait of its creator is "Louie" - and it reflects the fact that ultimately, this is two white guys telling a story about a world they…

Look, I fucking love this show, but I am also open to discussing its flaws, and one of them is how incredibly bland the core cast is, demographically. There's literally one black dude of any note, and he shows up maybe once a season.

Shiiiiiiit.

I am trying to think of an episode that has passed the Bechdel Test and I am failing miserably.
