I’m liking it, I think Marie’s story has some nuance with her being very self-aware about the dynamics unfolding, but also making choices that surprise you. Black women are allowed to be messy too.

Did you ever give Angel a try, I felt it ultimately surpassed its origin show.

I enjoyed the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it Freudian slip from Cliff about producing: “If it’s not one thing it’s a mother!”

Two things about this episode that my wife and I found funny: Cliff’s “stress dancing” prior to calling MB, and the Ferris Bueller callback when Charles and Oliver were telling MB to leave (you’re still here? Shoo...).  This show is very good at meta

Where were they supposed to find artists who know Fallout?

I’ve been playing the Arkham Horror card game with a buddy and we just did the one based on Dreams In The Witch House, don’t talk to me about fucking Brown Jenkin, Brown Jenkin can go straight to hell.

That fetching bitch is my daughter. You may lay with her”

I’m pretty sure Rudd is talking to a cookie in the video, listen to it again “you shouldn’t be here, GO! no you’re just going to sit just there, acting all sweet, you’re bad” I’m guessing he’s talking to a cookie that may or may not be poisined

The thing with Chapel is we don’t even know that, initially, she was the only survivor - she was the only one we saw, but she never checked any of the nearby bodies nor did she explore any of the ship. As soon as she saw Spock, she took the only visible EV suit and went after him. There could have been a dozen or so

Okay, so I don’t do scary because I’m a wuss but also I have a fundamental problem with the fact that one of the foundations of horror is PEOPLE DOING DUMB SHIT THEY WERE SPECIFICALLY TOLD NOT TO DO!!!

Cara Gee is awesome, and this is a great example of a character that was made better by adaptation.

Cool to see you guys are employing 68 year old Lutherans to write your articles for you now. 

or uncutscenes.

Not who she is or what she stands for, but what her job is, the job that in part was frustrating her earlier in the episode when it restricted her from being part of the away team.

Pretty sure it’s the only rendition on this list that was followed nine months later by an anthem-inspired Baby Boom.

I’m 34, and that pitch for a Barney movie sounds absolutely awful. First off, if I want a dark satirical takedown to Barney, I’ll rewatch Death to Smoochie. But more than that, Barney was a show for little kids, and as such, any nostalgia I have for it is tied into nostalgia for being a little kid. A cynical version

I clearly remember when my dad called my brother and I down to the family room because Marvin Gaye was about to sing the National Anthem. That’s the top one for me.

The most egregious snub to me: Ginger Snaps, the greatest feminist werewolf movie! And one of the best horror movies of the last 25 years. Directed by John Fawcett (also the co-creator of Orphan Black)

Well, they had to leave a slot open for colossal talent Shawn Levy and his beloved classic Free Guy, a movie that absolutely wasn't just predominantly coasting on Ryan Reynolds's appeal. Nope, in 50 years, we'll be talking about it in similar terms to Citizen Kane and The Godfather.
