I’m surprised they weren’t tossing buckets of pigs blood at him.

Well, he was originally supposed to play Pennywise in It but dropped out. So he’s pretty good at predicting whether or not something bombs. Because that movie went nowhere. No one wants to watch evil clowns in this day and age.

It’s not an award. It is title that just means the person had the biggest impact on world culture that year. It doesn’t matter if they’re good or bad. Hitler was a TPoTY.

Can we talk about the Burger King ad campaign spoiling The Rise of Skywalker?

40 years ago, people were so desperate for SW merchandise that they spent money on a box with some fold out cardboard, a few 3PO and R2 stickers, and a certificate they could mail off guaranteeing them they’d be the first to get four SW figures. But yeah, this is solely a 2019 thing. 

I don’t care for MCU movies per se, but it also drives me nuts that the “other side” of this discussion is a 77 year old man making his fourth or fifth movie about organized crime with the same cast.

I mean the headline is literally: “Read this: How nerds became bullying PR stooges for the Marvel monoculture”.

And at this point, what with it being the highest grossing film franchise of all time, it’s not really accurate to describe the Marvel movies as a part of “nerd” culture. They’re just pop culture in general.…

So... It’s a divisive film? For every person that likes it, there’s another that thinks it’s a cringe-y Scorsese knock-off with some Batman thrown in.

You’re being really unfair. Fox is still the home of a lot of one-season wonders/failures. And now that Disney owns Fox (the film and television studio) I expect Fox (the network) to start really throwing things against the wall in a desperate attempt to make something stick.

And if you look to your left, you’ll see the concern troll.

But there’s not only one episode left. It’s coming back after the Holidays. This is just the first half of the season.

That’s at least partially wrong though. He doesn’t start dating her (at least from Laurie’s perspective) when “Laurie learned that her real father, The Comedian, attempted to rape her mother, before they got together consensually, and conceived her[;]” She doesn’t even know about the sexual assault at that point.

In…

When I saw the previews for this episode, I thought Rick was going to end up fucking the dragon. And I was kind of right.

Larry Niven does not know much about the future, based on “The Jigsaw Man”, in which he foresees the rapid expansion of the death penalty in order to provide organs for transplant.

I don’t think we’re getting a whole lot of mileage out of Anne’s family being in the house, but I honestly really liked the way they turned them into an audience for the telenovela energy of Frank and Carl’s baby daddy drama with Ingrid’s husband. That was a bad storyline that’s still a bad storyline now (also the…

Not really. Twin Peaks: The Return is pretty straight forward narrative wise with the exception of “Gotta Light?” but I think even that makes sense, more or less, by the end of the season. Saying it’s a puzzle is a bit like saying all of fantasy/magical realism/science fiction is a puzzle. The things that confuse…

They’ve said it ties directly into the Doctor Strange sequel. So it’s probably just a one season show.

Clone Wars and Rebels started out very childish. Specifically, I’m thinking of Jabba the Hutt referring to his kid as his “Punky Muffin” (and the kid becoming a walking fart joke nicknamed “Stinky”) and Ezra’s stupid lightsaber/blaster combo.

Him getting back in bed with DC for America’s Best Comics after what went down with Watchmen is hard to reconcile with his and his daughter’s statements.

and that Donald Trump isn’t just a three-card monte street hustler with a better suit.
