    You’re kind of proving my point here. “Antisemites have depicted Jewish people as having large noses, therefore ALL characters with large noses MUST be antisemitic slurs.” If a character just happens to have a prominent nose, and someone looks at it and says “Hey, that guy’s got a big nose, he’s obviously supposed to

    I find that these days most people* either remember this movie as an awesome lightsaber fight and some cool world building held back from being truly good by some bad acting and character decisions, or as two hours and sixteen minutes of Jar-Jar Binks and bad child acting kept from being literally unwatchable by a

    Agreed. After seeing one or two episodes of season one I really started getting into it this season and I was always glad when the dice NBC rolls to decide what to actually air any given Thursday night came up in the rare combination that equaled this show.

    Yes, I said that in my comment, but like I said, it would be nice if they at least addressed it, if only to dismiss it. I mean, there’s no way everyone would just accept that. Anyone who wasn’t actually there would assume he was just badly injured and not really dead, or even that he’s just lying. Literally everyone

    Eh, it makes sense to me that no one suggested Jon Snow as the new king. The question about who was the new king literally came up in the course of discussing whether he should be executed, so “let’s let Jon Snow decide what to do with Jon Snow” probably wouldn’t have been the best way to convince Grey Worm to hand

    Great post, great sentiments and ... I don’t have anything clever to say off the top of my head, but as someone who’s been here since the days when we didn’t actually have to have accounts and could post under a different name every time so no one can prove I wasn’t here from the very beginning (I’m pretty sure I was

    When he got crucified I totally knew he was going to get resurrected because I’d already seen pictures of him fighting zombies and that hadn’t happened in the story yet.

    The next time this guy tells the story, he needs to add a detail about seeing the movie twice and taking pictures the second time. Adds three hours and the price of a second ticket to what he spent on petty revenge, but it lends credence to the idea of him knowing when to take pictures and removes the part about him

    I’m generally not in favor of vigilante spoiling, but at least this man has a code.

    A human can’t jump with enough force to explode through ice thick enough for someone to walk on and continue with enough momentum to clear the hole and land on their feet. Ergo something that can do that isn’t bound by the rules of what a human could do. Doesn’t necessarily mean they can punch through rock but it does

    My feeling was basically this: The series finale of Justice League Unlimited ended with all the heroes who’d been on the series running down stairs to respond to a call in groups that corresponded to different eras of DC publishing history, characters created by certain people, etc., with the core seven members

    I can honestly say that every zombie I’ve ever seen in real life could use weapons. And the ones on GoT have always been able to.

    The last time they animated skeletons they were able to just explode up through a layer of solid ice, so I don’t think they’re really constrained by the amount of meat left on their bones. If anything being lighter seemed to make them faster. I think there might be magic involved.

    I’m sure he’ll be pleased with whatever profit he turns, if any, but at the end of the day, out of all the things this guy could chose to spend his vast fortune on, he picked “make an action movie but in real life.” That probably means his interests lie in that area, as the fact that there isn’t a glut of simulated

    ‘Cause it’s people running around shooting each other for a prize. If you use your vast wealth to stage a Mortal Kombat tournament I’m gonna assume you want to either be (if you plan to take part) or hang out with (if you just plan to watch) Liu Kang (or whomever the main character of the more recent sequels is). If

    Geez, I REEEEALLY hope that “Rise of the Skywalker” doesn’t mean that Rey is going to be “revealed” (i.e., retconned) to be a blood relative of Luke. One of my favorite things about The Last Jedi was the idea that Rey’s parents were just ... Rey’s parents, and not some long lost royalty or descendants of a sainted or

    I agree that it’s a badly handled pair of scenes and a smart director/writer/editor/whatever would have put the mobile zombie encounter before the frozen ones to remove the question entirely, and I do think the odds of running into a scenario like this - with frozen zombies a short distance away from mobile zombies -

    This is just my cynical gut, and I don’t have any science to back this up or anything, but I’d wager the kind of person who spends millions of dollars to recreate an action movie in real life is probably hoping to see crazy, exciting action movie stuff and not ordinary, uncoordinated, drunk tourists stumbling around

    I wonder if BvS would have gone over better if instead of - or in addition to - the reference to the Joker killing Robin, they’d referenced Two-Face, saying that Superman reminds Batman of pre-Two-Face Harvey Dent, and that’s why he thinks Superman’s dark side coming out is less of a “what if” than a “when.”

    I’ve seen so many iterations of DC’s Captain Marvel that I can’t remember where I saw this, but I could swear there was a version that got around him having the Wisdom of Solomon and still acting like a kid by implying that it was less an attribute than an actual power, as in something he had to consciously use, or at
