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.

Even most people who read the books come away with the hilarious facile impression that Tom Bombadil is just a cheery joke-y guy who is maybe kind of powerful.

My son and I have been watching one episode of Knuckles per day. We have two to go. The show is ridiculous, light fun but Idris Elba’s voice acting is providing a charm that’s just working.

“Heroes could be making a comeback”

The last season of Heros was unwatchable.

I struggle to believe that the morons at CinemaSins could possibly have come up with a line as succinct and accurate as that.

“In space, no one can hear you say ‘no,’”

On the strength of Russian Doll alone, or maybe the pitch was that strong? Like, I don’t need or want Star Wars shows to be helmed by people who have only worked in sci-fi/fantasy. I’d rather watch spectacular failures that tried something different than boring failures that played it safe.

Garland: Politics should just be about reasonable people rationally debating the issues.

No, what SBI said is that companies come to them for an extra polish, as well as consultation for their already existing characters to see if they read properly (this even includes a finnish company like Remedy checking that their white male american character consistently comes across as intended)

I think that's why he turned hard right. It's the only way he gets attention anymore.

Disgusting. Jon Stewart didn’t even fix every problem with America in this 20 minute comedy show. And he didn’t spend it earnestly staring into the camera and saying “Trump is not normal!” ad nauseam. Both-sidesing piece of shit, I hope he dies.

Just thought I’d get that comment out of the way ASAP. 

Gareth Edwards is just two Neil Blokamps in a trench coat. As you said, the dude makes visually beautiful films (though is look is very 2010ers) but these films are so devoid of wonder and elegance. Like Denis Villeneuve but without the understanding of what makes a film good.

The fact that Lopez has taken any of that hilariously baroque season one dialogue and repurposed it should DELIGHT Pizzolatto.

In Season 2, Pizzolatto literally wrote the line, “I will come back here and butt f*ck your dad with your mom’s headless corpse.” I think whatever mantle he held regarding quality or “classic dialogue” ended right there. Also, so much of what made season 1 what it was the acting and direction. Many of the ideas were…

For a show that coasted so much on *vibes* Pizzolatto sure has a high f’ing opinion of his own fun but stupid writing.

Give me the party member that shoots you down not because of gender or sexuality but because “You’re making it weird, just because we’re friends and adventuring buddies doesn’t mean I’m DTF”

People are noticing that they are upset about noticing that the method of making things noticeable is working, they don’t notice how upset they’d be if they couldn’t notice something because it wasn’t noticeable.

It’s definitely not a reboot. We’re not trying to recreate the story from the first one. It’s a completely original story.

Well, you come off like a cunt. So you’ve got that going for you too!
