I’m always confused by Onion’s grades. Here you’ve got a show that is not only continuously praised throughout the review (not a single criticism leveled at it) but absolutely sounds like an extremely awesome and intriguing thing to watch and it still falls short of an ‘A’?

The logic of the ‘Prime Directive’ is impeccable. ‘Hey, treating pre-warp societies like savages is immoral and bad, so let’s treat them like animals instead.’

Neelix and Tuvok did not have a right to anything because they were DEAD. Non-existent. On the other hand, Tuvix was at that point a living, breathing, sentient individual. Janeway did not have the right to, by your own argument, utilize Tuvix’s body without consent to create two other bodies.

I’m saddened to see the actor go. I was always a big fan of Gunther and his character, especially how much all the Friends put him down and exclude him. Particularly noteworthy are those moments where Rachel blatantly used his attraction towards her to manipulate him and get him to do stuff for her, like the time he

I went to see the Requiem with my frat buddies. Talked to one of them after the movie. He said he hated it. Why? It made him feel things. The moment that the mother was lamenting her loneliness and lack of reason to even live was way too real for him.

I was genuinely puzzled. Isn’t the point of movies to feel things,

Not to be contrarian, although I usually am, this being the second time on this thread alone, but I love stories which exist solely on an allegorical level.

Give me this, or ‘I’m Thinking about Ending Things’ or ‘Synecdoche, New York’ any time of the day. These kinds of stories convey a richness of ideas that

Semi-successful??? What the hell are you talking about? Where’s the ‘failure’ part? It’s a verifiable masterpiece! That final scene was a cinematic tour de force. Absolutely brilliant.

Going to a Rocky Horror Picture Show projection as a ‘virgin.’

(SPOILER ALERT)

Okay, I’ve seen the film and it’s... mediocre. An infuriating mix of things done right and things completely half-assed, like the writing.

For a start, who was the psychiatrist’s father? How did he react to the death of his wife? What was his fate? We’ll never know. Why does the Russian dude out himself

Tomorrow Never Dies: the one Bond without any redeeming features. Dull, forgettable, preachy and self-important in all the worst ways. 

Arthouse? Say no more! I know just the movie.

Bond cuts another agents hand with broken glass jealous of her success, then pisses his pants in public.

So what’s gonna be next?
Game of Thrones: Bond dies two thirds into the movie.
24: Bond uses torture to get info.
West World: The main villain is a robot manufacturer and his henchman a robot.
John Wick: Someone kills Bond’s dog.
Passenger 69: Bond and a bunch of hijackers bang a stewardess while his love interest has

‘’What a nice watch! My boyfriend has one exactly like it.’’

Ugggh! Nothing more painful than really hitting it off with someone and then watching in horror as she frantically scales back the interaction with you knowing full well you messed up somewhere along the way. And yes, this is experience talking. lol, fml. 

There are three things that made Sean Connery’s James Bond work so well that are largely absent in the post-Moore James Bonds:

1) Actual spying. There was tons of secretive stuff in Sean Connery’s Bonds, and countless examples of where he used social engineering to get into places he wasn’t supposed to get into. The

My vote for a black Bond goes to John David Washington. He really knocked it out of the park in Tenet. 

There are only two qualifications for Bond: one is to be extremely attractive and the other to seduce hot women. Thus, a lesbian Bond is definitely a possibility.

Here, I’ll write 10 things that made the original trilogy great, and we’ll see how much the sequels AND the prequels have of them:

1) A sense of wonder: The idea that you’re stepping into a completely new and immersive universe. I think the only one that managed something close to this was Avatar and even it didn’t

Die Another Day is good, campy fun. I have no idea why it gets so much flak.

He got over his cancer problem, but the malignant cells beat him to death anyway. So, he’s dead. That’s it. Bye. ;-(

‘’Studios keep making films in successful genres until the genres cease to be successful.’’

Yes, but in the process the studio forgot to CREATE new genres, and you do that by putting forth new, exciting and ORIGINAL movies which transcent existing genres or drastically redefine them. These studios are using sequels and
