Nothing screams The Crow, to me, quite like the boisterous, jovial, and bulging Jason Momoa.
Unfounded? I gave a list of important plot points that prove my point. And the whole point is I want to be wrong. I want the Star Wars universe to actually grow.
Well I’m excited for how they find ways to awkwardly shove in existing characters into the new stuff that serves no purpose but weakening said characters, per Star Wars tradition.
They should bring him in to play Sam Beckett.
If i09 is anything like Kotaku, the writers each have favourite shows/etc. that they’ll focus on more.
Carlin was my favorite Doctor.
Deconstruction is fine, but first you have to, you know, construct the characters.
Star Trek Discovery is increasingly looking like something that is more ambitious than a mere prequel to the original series. It seems to me that CBS is positioning this show as a true reboot of the Star Trek franchise.
“Compliance.”
I think there is a certain personality type of fairly intelligent and perceptive person who goes through a phase in their life lasting maybe a decade, from about age 15 to age 25 or so, in which they realize that many people and many institutions of society are hypocritical and corrupt. But instead of continuing a…
But why would she say it was a disaster if the Twitter reactions were positive?
Just got done seeing it and I honest to god feel like Aranofsky was legit trying to alienate people with this. It’s like 90 minutes of an off-putting Brechtian chamber drama followed by some of the craziest shit you’ll see in a mainstream film. Who the hell was this weird ass movie for?

Maybe that could help make the…
They are just going to pay Ron Howard to live at Pine Wood Studios and direct Star Wars movies from here on out. All Ron Howard, all the time. It will all be pretty good. Not great, but pretty good.
I can understand your feelings... but while it definitely was overhyped, and was more a solid “good” than “great”, it’s still well worth watching - the London scenes are a lot of fun, the No-Man’s Land sequence has the potential to be iconic, and Chris Pine as Steve Trevor is a delight.
As far back as I can remember I always wanted to be a Joker...
...and amazingly it wasn’t cloudy. I saw it from the roof of an office on Oxford Street in London.
Last total was in 1999 in the UK
I want more female lead characters, like anyone else, but I’m not sure why so many seem to be demanding this male character be remade into a female one. Sure, it’s possible in the fiction, but why is it so important? Why not make a new female character and have her establish herself on her own merits? Would that be…
