Have to give Marvel props for going for solid actors for their heroes rather than who looks great in the costume.

The what's her name thing is nowhere near as complicated as folks are making out. Her employer and her co-workers were pretty clear they wanted her to stop tweeting about conspiracy theories and other stuff. She didn't, so she got fired. It's Disney, if you want to be a controversial figure, The Mou...

Given what we've all learned about Whedon recently I'm glad to see his contribution, such as it was to this movie, is being bulldozed and concreted over.

This reminds me how companies make video games where its unfinished when they ship it then you get a patch later that may fix it. So true. Given that this is mostly a graphics update and some bugs in the storyline being worked out am going to refer to it as Justice League 1.1. It also helps that th...

I thought it was great. I love this version of Kong, have since Skull Island. They've created this expressive, smart, dynamic monster and he's amazing to watch. The bit in GvK where Kong sits bolt upright Tyson Fury style, then pops his shoulder back in before going to fight MechaGodzilla is just br...

Donezel Washington.

Was pretty clear Disney fucked it up when they started complaining about Scarlett being 'callous'. It's like, first off, these motherfuckers ran a themepark in the middle of a pandemic, the idea they can criticise anybody else for not taking the plague seriously is a joke. Secondly, contracts are ve...

You complained about me bringing up politics. Does anyone get to refute you on this or is this just you having a say. You brought up politics. Hey, if you think it's reportable then do your thing, bro. The politics I'm mentioning do happen to be directly relevant to the subject matter and not a ran...

This is a great thing, and here's why. When the religious whackjobs used Mastercard to go after PornHub, what did we hear about when it went down? We heard stories about child porn, revenge porn, women being abused and raped on the site. And a lot of people took this at face value, and a lot of peop...

I wasn't crazy about how they handled Harley Quinn. I think they made her way too uber-competent. Harley should succeed wildly a lot of the time, but she should also fail wildly a lot of the time, and it would be every bit as entertaining. She's a wild card, not an ace. She's like some kind of supe...

Bridget Regan is hot as fuck. Great choice for Poison Ivy.

Slight tangent but Shawshank Redemption didn't even get universally great reviews when it came out either. Lot of people uncomfortable about how it humanised criminals.

The stuff about how dangerous the set was seems to backed up by the number of injuries reported there, and the amount of pressure on Ruby despite the injuries she was carrying must have made it a properly hellish job. I'm more inclined to trust the word of an actor than production executives, becaus...

Hang on? It's contemporary?

That's bad.

Nobody has a sword now. You can't heroically fight people with a sword if nobody else has one. You're just stabbing people.

I mean. Seriously. This looks fucking cool.



I was wary at first, but it's Rocksteady. I should have been more trusting. And I don't say that often/ever.

Shakeshift wrote: ↑4 months ago Except that Lily James probably doesn't have any interest in being a Pamela Anderson wannabe cover band for the rest of her career. She'd probably like to earn her acting jobs based on her talent, rather than her likeness to a TV star from thirty years ago.

I know and it is the worst.

So it stuck the ending. It's getting a new season. I'm looking forward to seeing the new dance.

It's Star Trek lads. Space communists doing social justice. It's not even subtext, it's literally what the show has always been about. Bunch of pronoun-respecting anti-racist luxury communists travelling the galaxy fixing conservative/fashy/religious aliens and the problems they cause, sometimes by ...
