I think it’s a pretty terrible idea for Scott and Knives to end up together. Scott’s excuse, and later, Knives realization that she’s too good for him is pretty accurate. I like Scott as a character, but I don’t think the two are very compatible. Knives is on a very different trajectory, and I can’t think of what…

I love this movie. It perfectly captures that obnoxious limbo of your early 20’s when you’re ostensibly an adult, but still not quite an actual human being. It has problems, of course. The chemistry is a bit lacking and it obviously doesn’t have the breathing room the comic has. But it’s smart, clever, and aware.

It’s the only way my honor concerning this family-friendly franchise starter will be satisfied.

Yup! Really.

I really like the low frame rate. I think it both evokes stop-motion animation, and I think that herky-jerky quality works great for physical comedy.

If I’d known he’d worked on Rocko, I probably would have checked it out sooner. That show remains one of my favorites.

He faced an actual competitive senate race for the first time and has emerged victorious. He no longer feels bound by man or god’s law. That beard is his defiance against the natural order of the universe; his spit in the eye of the holy and sacred.

I was about 20. It looked derivative to me and I was watching other stuff. I’m not saying I was right, but being dismissive is not a particularly uncommon trait of one’s early 20's.

I was too old for Spongebob when it came out, and dismissed it as a kind of Ren and Stimpy also-ran. It wasn’t until my daughter started getting into the show a few years ago and I was amazed how wrong I was. It’s a rare balancing act that can blend sweet, good-hearted goofiness with absurdist, sometimes disturbing…

Libraries are just the best. I was able to reserve a bunch of kick-ass looking graphic novels from my home last night, both the kids love going there for books and goofing-off, and living in a mid-sized city means almost anything you’re interested in can be sent to your local branch if you’re just willing to wait.…

This is true.

Oh, no doubt. Jeremy Bearimy is funnier then Jeremy Jeremy by an order of magnitude.

The beauty of the gag, and it is such a beautiful gag, has a lot to do with how they wrote “Jeremy Bearimy”. Using big, friendly looping cursive that also arcs up in the middle gives everything a goofy, architectural form that perfectly reinforces the idea.

Edit: Also a really great looking Mean Machine and surprise appearance by an ABC Warrior. Those are the three good things in that movie.

I’m pleasantly indifferent to it. It’s lumpy, unnecessary, and has a bad third act, but a lot of the jokes a good, the chemistry is great, and as much as I love the original, it’s not such a sacred thing that it’s defiled by a reboot. And besides, it’s one of my daughter’s favorite movies, and one kid getting excited…

Yeah, I dunno. The one thing Stallone’s version got right was the depiction of Mega City one and that movie was garbage. I’d much rather have a divergent aesthetic from the comic in a good movie, than a visually accurate shitty one.

I doubt it will ever materialize, but a Dredd show would be pretty great. I really enjoyed the (more recent) movie, but the one element missing is the weird, black humor. I want Uncle Ump and Ugly clinic storylines, to say nothing of the Judge Child, and Judge death arcs.

Snyder knows how to frame a shot, no question about it. But he has such a fascist boner it undermines any story he’s trying to tell. Except 300. Which was a story about assholes.

No, but Snyder claimed it was a feminist dissertation and it... was not that.

Snyder has the Midas-like ability to turn any theme he works with into its opposite meaning. Watchmen, Superman, Sucker Punch all tell the completely inverted stories from their premise.
