What’s weird is even Disney/Hulu does this sometimes now. I’m rewatching some of the Netflix Marvel stuff, and while most of the ads are at proper act breaks, every now and then it misses by less than thirty seconds. Even some D+ original stuff sometimes does it.

Look, I’m not going to get into a knock down drag out with the “Subtext is for cowards” guy. I don’t even know what to say to someone who apparently can’t understand anything not explicitly stated. But I haven’t watched half of those things, and I certainly haven’t read any supplemental materials, and I don’t have any…

The problem with this framing is that you could just as easily say Wonder Woman 1984 was so bad that it made Morbius look like a masterpiece in comparison. And Morbius was so bad that it made Black Adam look like a masterpiece in comparison. And so on and so on, digging a deeper and deeper hole for 95% of movies to…

Here’s the problem with your argument: You just agreed it was stupid. To be explicit, that’s your framing that’s stupid, not the show’s. It’s your bad perspective that’s driving your bad experience with it.

George III still causing issues in the modern age.

“The Jedi have not outlawed anything. The Republic has, however, and the planet they are on is outside Republic jurisdiction. It’s a stupid set up.”

It’s a bit of a disappointment to me that so many people are bad at just enjoying movies in this era. Like, oh no, did Madame Web not live up to the full potential of the premise and deep character lore? Guess it’ll be more productive to hatewatch it than to bask in the utter ridiculousness of it all.

Buddy, I fucking love the Avatar movies.

My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullsh*t. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to f*cking want to see those.”

Thought the episode was just fine overall, but anything involving the background witches looked like “The Witches of East Arlen”

Wait just a little longer, and it will be Son of Blade, costarring Justice Smith

Blade? More like Belayed

What about Tower Heist?

Some of the designs bear a passing resemblance to Avatar, but it reminds me much more of Samurai Jack

I don’t know, if I was in charge of Disney and every other decade or so I was able to wring out 40%+ of the annual box office by jamming the same button over and over again, I’m not sure I would stop even if I knew it would eventually come to an end. Especially now, when a bad year for Disney means they only collect…

They should rename it A.

I seem to remember a cool little network of blogs that was struggling for years to find a devoted userbase and dozens of talented writers until a kindly old group of billionaires stepped in to help them out. And that little network of blogs, whom nobody liked, grew up to be... sold off piece by piece until maybe one …

Trolling doesn’t change any minds either, so I’m asking why you do it.

I don’t know, why do trolls troll, troll?

I think Moffat really nailed the hanging in the TARDIS aspect of the show. RTD often started and ended inside, but didn’t really explore the space so much. Capaldi alone probably spent more time monologuing around his TARDIS than Eccleston and Tennant spent fiddling with levers and dials.
