Not long ago I watched “Superman” with a friend from the UK who’d never seen it, and he immediately said at the the first scene with Luthor, in his vast underground lair, “Oh, this is just like James Bond! He’s like a Bond villain!”

I skipped it at the time. “Octopussy” was the first I saw in the theatre and it was really exciting - the shit parts didn’t bother me, even with them it was a Bond movie like I’d only seen on television: exciting, glamorous, beautiful exotic women, great music, etc. Then “A View To A Kill” utterly infuriated me lol.

Here we have the only known example of a Faberge egg contained inside of a curate’s egg.

Wow...I didn’t even notice. That makes me a little sad, that I didn’t even notice.

Ok. Why? 

I finally was able to watch this last night - the fact that he has a nickname for Vigilante that ISN’T CRUEL (“V”), and that he is concerned about his feelings enough to tell Leota to not tell him, those things are extraordinary.

When Chris is chilling with Leota in his trailer and says “I never thought I’d have any friends” - or tries to say it, but becomes so emotional he can’t get the words out. Boy, I get it...

You are not. I just returned to the office at my request about a month ago, after about a year and a half at home. I never loved it; though I did like the convenience a lot, by the last 3 or 4 months or so I was losing it. Completely immobile most of the time, smoking heavily (for me) all day, rarely seeing anyone or

I realized while I was watching the penultimate episode that the “band of misfits” cliche has been around forever, but this is the first time I feel like I’m seeing the real thing. Like, THIS is what misfits are - dorks who truly have trouble making friends, for whatever various reasons. They’re not people who are so

Seriously, he is so talented! I never saw him before his stint guest-hosting SNL awhile back, and was instantly taken with his next-level unselfconscious funniness. And he’s just blown me away on this show.

Yeah, Vigilante...man, oh man. And he’s such a caring friend - for a psycho killer, I mean. He’s the whole package!

And I’m about to leave it, so you can also believe me; I know what old isn’t.

Yes I think we all agree - thinking and acting like you should be hired even though you’re an asshole because of your talent just doesn’t fly. THERE’S PLENTY OF SERIOUSLY GREAT TALENTED PEOPLE THAT AREN’T ASSHOLES. And they will be hired over you.

I remember him from Smallville too...vividly. Vividly. 

Bugs Bunny never gave anyone a hard time who didn’t aggress upon him first, and then he destroyed them easily. But he was never the instigator. Anyone he made fun of deserved to be taken down.

This is not exaggeration. It’s literal truth.

I remember watching that and thinking, yeah he really means all those things. It was just starting to come out what a jerk he was about the show.

I think that his saying he knows who he is, people don’t like him, and he doesn’t care is honest, and even admirably honest. If he were to only extend that into “If my being who I am has cost me roles, it’s worth it, because I have to be true to who I am”... but yeah, he just doesn’t. He truly seems to think that,

I think Chase was utterly integral to what made Community so great. It was such a nuanced character, and they wrote SUCH good character material for him. It just killed me that he didn’t appreciate it, and that he just cavalierly said as much at the time. 

You know what I realized, I’m the one who assumed that it was a mild rape or gay panic joke. I guess because I remember when it totally wouldn’t have been anything else. Oh man, some things are so much better now than they were forty years ago...
