Bust Rodd posted:Mike, Rich, and Jay really do not at all strike me as people who hang out in film subreddits and they absolutely do not strike me as people who seek out hot topic Hollywood drama to weigh in on it. The evidence I have for this is “literally their entire body of work”. In general, they don’t seem that “online”. This is what I like most about them. They never stop in the middle and say smash the subscribe button, they don't get caught up in twitter/youtube beef, they rarely have hot takes on recent topics. Just a bunch of dudes chilling, watching bad movies and making auto erotic asphyxiation jokes. Uh hey Simpsons, Marvel already did it. It's a little late to jump on the openly deaf actor train. I haven't watched almost 10 years, is Apu back or is he still cancelled? https://twitter.com/Variety/status/1512126149387862019

watched The Pattman and enjoyed it for the most part notes: -the "evil car waking up" scene was excellent -the makeup on Colin Farrell for the Penguin character was really good -looks like they actually did a lot of stunt and practical effects work so hell yeah on that -after the movie is done being Se7en and we launch into a whole other big action act I was kinda like "ehhhhhh" but perhaps only because the movie is so long already -on that note there had to be someplace to trim some fat to get the runtime down, mercy -lotta silly accents in this movie and I loved that

I hate the character of Lisa Simpson so much She’s just the mouthpiece for 23 year old Harvard grads in their first screenwriting job who want to talk down to the audience

the Penguin makeup in the film is incredible, I've had a few people ask me who Colin Farrel even was in it because they didn't realise it was him

I have no idea who still watches the Simpsons. Like people who grew up with it (like us basically) don't care. Older people??? Kids??? The only reason I can think for it still going is that merchandising and brand names make Fox enough money to justify making a show nobody watches.

What kind of person calls themselves a ‘fan’ of a series and then quits, simply because it’s been on a long time or has changed some?

AARD VARKMAN posted:there's a lot of really dumb people out there who never noticed or cared about the quality drop, amazingly That's silly. I hate the idea that being a fan implies any loyalty. Like I've bought the first 10 seasons of Simpsons as DVDs just so I can rip them with the commentary on my computer and I love them. But as much as I rewatch and love them doesn't mean I have to ever see anything they've done since 2000. Same with Star Wars. I love the universe and I've played many of the games and I've read/listened to more EU books than I care to admit, but I can still hate most of Star Wars. And I think RLM has had a healthy relationship to things they love, because they often freely love and poo poo on things at the same time. If you feel like defending a pop culture franchise at any point you are too deep.

I wish it was but I also know there are some incredibly weird people out there who probably get some kind of odd pride from sticking with a show that descends into garbage. And also remember Mike was surprised that S30 was actually pretty decent (I won't bother checking but still)

Clear cadence. Perfect control. Consistent projection. Nearly no vibrato (which most singers waaay overdo). Perfect pitch. Effortless transition from pop vocalizing into a key change and then into jazz vocalizing. As the Borg queen would say...Perfect. Brava.

Lisa stopped being good when she became the Brian Griffin of the Simpsons and they stopped making episodes pairing her with Homer. The Homer and Lisa episodes are usually excellent.

Hasn't been on the show for like 5 years at this point. They didn't even recast him with an Indian guy like how they recast Dr. Hibbert and Carl with black guys.

If only they could work their way into headlines by having good writing… Edit: actually serious ASL question if anyone knows. Would it work well with only 4 fingers on each hand? I don’t know poo poo about the language so I’m genuinely curious whether that would be some kind of impedance or not Gutcruncher fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Apr 8, 2022 |

If you make something new people might not like it so the safe bet is to make something expensive and bad.

Kirk because he was drinking a mug of tea when he applied for Starfleet and the recruiter was obliged to fill in a middle name on the form.

The "T" in James T. Kirk stands for "Tiberius". The dashing Starfleet captain is actually a direct descendant of a line of warlords who terrorized Iowa during the Eugenics Wars who were all perfect genetic copies of the 1st century AD Roman Emperor Tiberius.

AARD VARKMAN posted:Spock kisses a woman in this trailer at 1:09 There's a shot of him doing the ritual combat poo poo from Amok Time as well. I guess that would make sense because he'd have gone through a Pon-farr cycle before Kirk took command of the Enterprise. There was no mention of the word 'family' in the trailer so that already makes the show light years better than Discovery.
