It occurs that an issue with the philosophy / movement that LGBTQ+ characters and stories should only be performed and told by LGBTQ+ individuals, while perhaps well-meaning, is that it assumes that the sexual identities and preferences of the individuals involved should be and even must be made public knowledge, even…

Comics Wonder Man is an interesting character, because popularity wise, he is a total c-lister (unless something has changed since I was reading comics about 20 years ago, but I doubt it) but power wise he is a heavy hitter as strong as some of the big guys like Thor or Iron Man. They could definitely do something…

Different strokes, I guess.

“Mr Simpson, don’t you fret. I watched Matlock in a bar last night. The sound wasn’t on, but I think I got the jist of it.”

I had the Amiga Batman (1989) game, and it was pretty good. I enjoyed the platform levels, as well as the puzzle level where you figured out what combination of cosmetics activated Joker venom.

I was never able to beat the Joker in the NES Batman (but my brother did once). I might have to give it a try again. I recently pulled out my old system to play some Double Dribble and try to score 1000 in a game like the old days. Defeating the Joker is next on my list.

There was also the case of expert Jamake Highwater. He wrote dozens of books about his Cherokee heritage, pocketed slightly less than $1 million in public grants in the seventies and early eighties, before people started to have their doubts on him, and he was first exposed as a fraud. Yet, he still remained, out of…

Yeah I really enjoyed Man of Steel.

The fan service definitely worked for me - so I guess the target is other old farts who’ve been watching for decades. Getting to see old companions return, played by their original actors, and have a place in NewWho was great. Especially in the case of Ace and Tegan getting to have emotional moments with their Doctors…

How the fuck are motherfucking ad-bots not in the grays?

whoa-oa wait? The Rock in his most unlikeable role? Call the fucking Safdie Brothers I have a Best Picture film idea.

I never knew I wanted a Doctor Fate movie until saw Pierce Brosnan playing him.

I’ll (probably) never get to serve on a jury because I’m a lawyer, and lawyers never want lawyers, but that’s really beside the point of the general consensus in these United States of America being that serving on a jury is a nuisance that only the stupid can’t get out of. (And it’s not necessarily that they don’t…

God I love that. Twister is such a ridiculous movie, I freakin’ adore that there’s a cabal of evil tornado-chasers in shiny black vans being led by Carey Elwes. It creates a whole alternate universe where people go to college for a decade to get advanced degrees in meteorology for the money, because we all know that…

Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams.

I think your logical mistake there comes from the word “despite.”

What’s “proper” for a character that’s over 80 years old? Is it a Superman that destroys the car of a wife beater and fights for the oppressed? One that’s a propaganda machine for the U.S. during WWII? A right-wing Reaganite? Sporting a mullet? A Superman that laments that he’s the only one of his kind and questions…

I thought the good guys were sponsored by Pepsi, since that’s all the cans they used for... um... whatever it was they were using them for, it’s been over 25 years since I watched it, OK?

Starred for this

The problem is that the science is this case is not digestible, so it’s very hard to provide the audience with a payoff. In the first film, the ending featured (the very moment the devices hit the tornado) a crude computer drawing of a tornado and numbers rolling across the screen (because, um... science), and even…
