the New Gods are Jack Kirby madness and I love it. Ava could have done a great job with them

Totally beautiful and totally boring Kirby. I don�t care how amazing the details of the panels are when you�re high but if Kommandi and OMAC are more interesting than just loving hang it up.

Then again if I had a better weed hookup and less of a life I might like New Gods, given that I read the entire run of OMAC.

8 issues I guess I don�t even like comics lol.

That �I can�t hear you can you hear me� was the best scene I n any Starr Wars since the 80�s. When that came out I was having non-stop video conferences in stupid meeting rooms and was ALWAYS doing that. I kept laughing until my wife elbow-jammed me as I was �getting looks�.

My whole childhood I spent watching scifi movies and TV shows where people effortlessly communicate over a big screen TVs with a camera and a mic. I�m in that future, and it BARELY works.

Tonally, sure its nuts, so it�s clearly a late change or something dragged in from someplace else. I have no idea what brilliant punch-up artist did that, I hope they were well paid.

I�m curious about Waititi playing at auteur and how that manifests in the film, because I find it weird and off-putting in interviews, but maybe Disney reined him in too much for any problems with the movie to really be his fault.

I liked it. Wasn�t as good as Ragnorak but had jokes, spectacle, and a relatively interesting villain munching all the scenery. A fun, pretty, dumb, popcorn movie. I don�t know what people were expecting, but it�s not really fair that this got the weight of the overdue Marvel backlash, it�s the best one in some time - and I literally have a child with the first name Raimi.

Sorry, capitalism means they need to keep putting these out for constant growth forever. Even if it would be in the interest of the long-term health of the Marvel properties to put a pause on them and give it a rest for a few years.

The Newsroom is by far the most epic show in the history of television. I especially liked the episode where Will had each individual Tea Partier call into the nightly news so he could pwn them in the marketplace of ideas.

I liked the one where a WOMAN tried to tell a MAN what to do. Boy she got hers!

He's a hell of a movie maker and understands the technology and crafts of film-making probably better than any one person on the planet. The only person comparable is probably Jackie Chan.

Yeah but the actors worked so well we got the second-best DC series ever out of it (Batman 66 being the best). And keeping dangerous/unpredictable people around for missions where they will likely die seems to be her thing (my retcon).

Bringing Out The Dead is another great Scorsese movie that fell off the cultural radar for some reason.

I loved After Hours so much, but the last time I watched it I got kind of a misogynistic vibe from it.� that bothered me. That was maybe 2007, I should watch it again.
