Invitations to the Met Gala

Yeah but it’s pretty much a given that if a Jedi dies by just vanishing and leaving nothing behind but a robe (or a cover in Yoda’s case) in Star Wars, they’re coming back as a Force ghost.

Weird you’re replying to this days later but whatever...

Actually I was juxtaposing Hollywood’s reaction to raping a child with Hollywood’s reaction to mail fraud. Not the crimes themselves.

You’re not going to seriously try and tell me that Hollywood was hard on Polanski? Major studios still give him financing and then…

My fetish is country punk performer Mojo Nixon being transmogrified into a human/dinosaur hybrid. Will it cater to that fetish? 

And the part where (depending on the person’s age) they try to shift blame to rap music and/or video games.

Good point, but I have to admit, I was actually talking about Fiona Shaw’s outfit. Incorporating spandex into a business formal outfit is... a choice.

Damn. What the Hell was going on in the 90's?

Yeah. If a child is being neglected or abused, you take them out of that situation. There’s a very good argument to be made that a parent who is letting their child skip school is being neglectful. If it says it was rarely used, then it was probably under the most extreme circumstances.

Probably not many because all of Dark Horse’s big titles are being bought by rival publishers.

They’ve got the Hellboy universe, Elfquest, Alien and Predator (maybe not for long since Disney owns them now), and manga. Admittedly, it’s good manga. Lots of 60's and 70's period pieces like Lone Wolf & Cub and Samurai…

Nick Kroll is guest-starring next week with a member of his vampire gang named “Count Rapula”. “300 years living in New York, son. I didn’t start rappin’ ‘til 1991.”

Reminder: Exit polls show that Clinton won active duty members of the military’s vote by five points. Trump did well with veterans, but (unless there was a huge uptick in Trump supporters signing up for service in the last couple of years) he’s not too popular with active members of the military.

Well, if you had just the teeniest bit of reading comprehension, you’d understand that I was mocking how most countries (not necessarily just Japan) go about this by designing CGI brand mascots and spokespeople via motion capture who are intentionally cartoon-ish, but the United States (not necessarily exclusively…

I think they dumped the whole thing in a single week.

Japanese Company: We’re going to make our computer generated spokesperson look like any cute character from an anime or video-game. We don’t want to make our customers uncomfortable or creep them out.

American Company: Two words: Uncanny Valley. We weren’t or mascot to be disturbingly realistic, but just not quite…

See, I thought it was strange that someone in Japan and someone in Hallmark came up with this plot simultaneously and somehow it had never been done before.

But what about a football player who has to enter the world of ballet (for reasons) and falls in love with his dancing partner? Has that been done before? Because…

Wasn’t there some controversy last year where fans of a manga/anime accused them of stealing the plot for one of their movies? I think the plot was a hockey player has to become a professional figure skater (for reasons) and falls in love with his skating partner.

“Girl, it was camp. It was Leigh Bowery. I was channeling Leigh Bowery.”

Yeah, it definitely had some Heathers vibes. I mean, several of the main characters are part of a mean girls clique called the Chanels, they’re actually the best part too. Billie Lourd is great as this absolute weirdo who may or may not be Charles Manson’s illegitimate daughter.

Sort of. But it focused more on the comedy than the horror. It was basically Popular or Glee with one gory (by network standards) death an episode.

“He drugged and raped that underage girl 42 years ago.”

That’s what you sound like.
