I read the original comment as drawing a comparison between the dismissal of rape claims and ignoring the need for due process, not between the act of falsely accusing and the act of rape. Those are very different comparisons, whether you agree with the comment or not.

Nobody's ever going to accuse Hillary Clinton of being slick.

It does matter inasmuch as CGI has born a great deal of the blame for the suckiness of the movies, when it was the writing and direction that made them terrible.

Which would take way more energy than it would ever get out of you.

But that wouldn't qualify, since it was itself adapted from a film.

Not even when it tackled the hot-button subject of playing ball in the house?

My family adopted a golden mix last year. Singing/rapping "Who's that dog? Mr. Peanutbutter! Knick knack, paddy whack, give a dog a bone!" to him is just about the best thing ever.

I'm in no way a partisan in the Marvel/DC rivalry, and you definitely won't hear me defending AOU, but it's problems stemmed much more from its shaky plot than from excessive stylistic self-regard.

I was thinking "Bad to the Bone".

I think the DC film style is well-established by now. It's those movies that look a videogame cutscene went up its own asshole continuously for two and a half hours, right?

Might there be some connection between the filmmakers' continual failure to meet fan expectations and the fact that fans are resigned to seeing these movies, good or not?

Ronald, holding his gun on a cuffed, smirking Hamburgler: "What's in the Happy Meal box! WHAT'S IN THE BOOOOOOOX!"

The "long form" as it were?

I dislike Lost in Translation but enjoyed this episode. Does that count?

The score is what reminded me most of a video game, particularly the underwater levels of a computer game from the early '90's.

Also he guarantees them there is no problem. He guarantees it.

I, too, have Floridian in-laws. Some years ago they took my prepubescent nephew to hooters. He got a Hooters shirt signed by all the waitresses, one of whom wrote "Call me when you're 18!" So, yeah.

Ugh, no, the Daredevil court scenes were the least believable part of a show that featured undead ninjas.

At DragonCon a couple of years ago a friend pointed out Urbaniak at the Hilton bar macking on a young woman who looked very much like Dr. Girlfriend, while sitting next to a guy who looked very much like Rusty Venture. No word on whether he woke up as a caterpillar the next day.
