The Batman movie in the works is supposed to be The Long Halloween.

 “Hey, listen, all these girls showing their a*$ and all kinds of crazy s*%t and I have underwear on in Bali and they took my pic down. It’s discrimination. Like, I understand, I can’t help my size, but you can’t take down my pic.”

Everyone knows that. Why do you “Well, actually it’s not Yoda” people feel compelled to make that comment? No one thinks the baby is Yoda, it’s just that saying/typing “Baby Yoda” is a lot less time consuming than saying/typing “Baby who is the same species as Yoda”.

Counterpoint: One of the celebrities directed an episode of The Mandalorian which heavily featured Baby Yoda. So it makes sense to ask her opinion. And another is national treasure Laura fucking Dern.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, his top ten of this year features a lot of nudity, illicit substances, and devil worship, but for a few fans, one of his selections may give them an initial pause: Joker.

It wasn’t just that it was an Oscar nominee. It had a lot of buzz surrounding it because it was based on a work by the author of Let the Right One In. I’m pretty sure it received a glowing review on this very site.

Oh it’s definitely been a bad year for pets beloved by the internet. Boo the World’s Cutest Dog in January, Grumpy Cat in May, and now Lil’ Bub.

(Ned instructing Rod to literally turn his back on his younger brother is about as ugly as Ned’s Christianity has been allowed to be.)

I’m a little surprised and somewhat disappointed that baby Yoda didn’t turn out to be a McGuffin and dumped off on that planet before setting out for the Mando’s next adventure. Clearly, the writers have a long term plan this season for the little guy.

The point is that Lucas was (surprisingly) able to exercise restraint by postponing merchandise to avoid spoiling the movie. I don’t think you can compare the timing since RotJ was released in May and The Mandalorian was released like four to six or seven weeks before the Holidays. And that’s just in the US. There’s…

Not really. Lucas made Kenner cover over the Ewoks and the Jabba the Hutt playset on the packaging and in the catalogs for RotJ  merchandise and they weren’t released in stores until August of 1983, three months after RotJ’s release.

So - despite Lindelof’s claim that this is a one-and-done miniseries - they intentionally kept the other Minutemen blurry in case those characters get recast in a second season, right?

1.) I feel like Musk had more lines than Sam Neill and Kathleen Turner combined and that’s a travesty.

2.) The Lynchbot or whatever it was called fell flat because nothing it wrote (aside from Rick swallowing the bird and spitting out an egg) felt like they were from a David Lynch film. But maybe I just want to watch…

Or he was using June as a beard? You know that was a common practice among “straight acting” gay men before the gay rights movement and still happens in some rural and conservative communities. Also, it seems pretty intentional that they had a scene of Will in bed with Captain Metropolis and June back-to-back. One…

Too bad Virtual Marge and the Pierce Brosnan A.I. from “Treehouse of Horrors XII” couldn’t get together.

He’s doing more a Roman/Bellamy salute in the concept art. But maybe they were worried that would look a tad too fascist?

It looks like they’re doing The Long Halloween. The problem is The Long Halloween had multiple issues to play out, not 2 1/2 to 3 hours tops.

In the case of Krabapple where her voice was literally just Marcia Wallace? Yes. In the case of Phil Hartman where he voiced a handful of occasional guest characters? Absolutely. In the case of Russi Taylor who voiced half of Springfield Elementary’s student body? No, not really.

Yes. This is all Disney’s doing. George Lucas would never flood the market with any and every piece of Star Wars merchandise imaginable like... Whatever the fuck this is:

But I thought The Fast and the Furious movies were written and filmed as gay porn.
