What absolutely irrevocably ruins Titanic for me is Rose jumping off her lifeboat. That is such a piece of hackneyed pablum that it spoils the entire movie for me. As many have already satirised in many places, this decision directly kills Jack. Without her, he’d have a nice giant door all to himself and would have

White women mocked incessantly? Almost spat my tea on my computer... You mean like in literally every commercial out there where the white ‘WOMAN’ is always shown to be the butt of the joke, the one that is stupid and incompetent and very often the one for whom being a victim of violence is played for laughs?

Game of Thrones all over again... people flooding its imdb page with viscerally negative reviews like the movie killed their dog or something. Why do the most amazing movies always have to be pilloried like this? This movie is neither mainstream nor for the mainstream audience and it is 100% honest in all it’s

But didn’t we find out when fantasy girl talks to her creator. To the real life version of her, the janitor was literally nothing. Just some unattractive schlub lusting after her who didn’t even have the guts to talk to her and become more of a nuisance, one of many, far too many to ever remember any of them. The

A ‘creepy old man’? Why is he creepy? Has he stalked someone? Harmed someone? Done something wrong? He’s literally a lonely old man just doing his job whilst fantasising about the love and companionship he could have maybe had, even though he himself realises it was always gonna be a long-shot. So fantasy is now off

A Serbian Film.

‘’If you can find me a civilization - or even a tribe - anywhere on the planet that somehow managed to evolve from caveman days without a shared belief system, I’ll wear one of those stupid grey latex jumpsuits -complete with bellend hat- for a year!’’

It’s a classic trope of not just movies but pretty much all of culture that atheists are miserable grouches who experience no spirituality, or even worse, experience it, but are in denial, and that ‘naturally’ a kid would resort to praying to the supernatural.

It would be entirely possible for an alien disease to affect us in horrific ways. Just because two species haven’t evolved alongside each other doesn’t mean they wouldn’t interact with each other in some way if they come into contact with each other... in fact in such cases very often it’s extremely bad news for one

Just saw the first episode and I have to say... tour de force!

Haven’t been this excited since S1E1 of Game of Thrones.

Just hope they have a tonally consistent story to tell and don’t turn the robots into 1D psychos like what kind of happened in Westworld.

Oh, don’t get me started on the mechanics of backwards travelling things... how does someone travelling backwards in time even get warmth from the Sun as this stellar giant vacuum cleaner sucks in all the photons around it? They would freeze to death in seconds!

The main problem in the movie is that there is simply way too much carelessness in it for people to feel any motivation in trying to decipher it. 

Look, every extremely successful director sooner or later enters into his ‘self-indulgent’ phase where he starts churning our sub-par material. Doesn’t take anything away from his previous achievements. The list of great movies Nolan has made is astounding and even an outright dud, which is far from what Tener is,

I’d have to say this is just about the weakest movie Nolan has ever made. I was expecting some compelling sci-fi and instead got a lazy mash up of James Bond and Back to the Future 2.

Instead of the crisp mechanics of, say, Inception, here we have the biggest gobbledegook imaginable... an object going back in time... t

‘’You ignore that this woman has far more experience with this man than you previous to the scene, and he blithely continues being casually contemptuous of her.’’

As opposed to her being openly and belligerently contemptuous of him. What a catch! The woman even a multi-billionaire should end up pining for. Pure

It’s kind of obvious that the reviewer had to type out this review with one hand as the other hand was firmly holding his nose shut. At least, commendably, there was considerable restraint in that the usual talking points of how ‘problematic’ this movie is were deftly avoided, as they really wouldn’t have added much

Okay, so I actually went and watched the scene in question. The only asshole I saw was the one in possession of two X chromosomes.

Even at the start of the interaction she looks like she is one breath away from biting his head off. Her very first words are essentially telling him he needs to get medication because he

Well, if a man said something like that to a woman, he’d be labelled an asshole in a heartbeat. Where in hell does someone who can say something like that to a person with the pure intention of hurting them and damaging them psychologically get to determine who is an asshole and who is not?

The greatest irony was Gene Roddenberry forcing the ST:TNG actors to wear them imagining these suits to be the clothing of choice in the far future utopia and them actually ending up being a nightmare for the crew to work in. Ultimately, they were replaced by more standard pants and shirt combo.

As we explore space, the need for a standard year will be increasingly apparent, and no apparent reason not to use the year from our home planet. In the Foundation series, despite all knowledge of Earth’s wherabouts lost, the entire galaxy still uses the standard year and even speculates it might be the orbital period
