    The ending was fairly redemptive tho. It's actually one of the few Cormac McCarthy books that actually has a happy ending... and it's one of his bleakest ones.

    I got stuck at "Theoretical Humanities"... is it like a clickbait discipline? Has clickbait headline culture finally penetrated into the academy.

    Bill Burr VS Louis CK

    I prefer Bill Burr by a long shot, but yeah his netflix cartoon needed teeth. Plus Louis CK was phenomenal in Trumbo.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    It can't have been as bad as Lost Dinosaur's marketing, though. Point is, for whatever reason, Disney must've tested Lost Dinosaur to death across every market and age group and based on that decided to budget its marketing the way it did and released it in the ass end of the year, perilously...

    Yep, like any pareto spread they've got a bottom 20% too. Curious why they'd allow a Pixar title to slip down there tho. Last Dinosaur looks like disaster.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    It's more than just the exposure. The Chinese test audiences must not have shown any more enthusiasm now than they did before. Disney is the most disciplined media company in history, they have a monster regionalization group that just sits around and maths up shit like why releases should...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah D&D said Shireen was straight from GRRM. It sounded like GRRM is making her death have more weight and consequences in the books tho. Shireen's death and the setup for it over a few episodes definitely hit pretty hard--but that was because of Davos being there, which he isn't in the...

    China suffers worst wheat harvest in 55 years

    China has ALREADY been importing millions of poor immigrants for most of the last couple decades. They just happened to be poor Chinese from the hinterlands instead of foreigners--and they've been funnelled into the shitty working and living conditions just as poor immigrants have been in every...

    He knows he shouldn't finish it. Storm of Swords was the real ending. There's no way there could be a satisfactory ending now.

    Burn?

    Just like how there's a version ofthe Art of Warpublished with annotations from Cao Cao, von Clausewitz and even Napoleon, they should publish a version with all the annotations from Pol Pot, Augusto Pinochet and Ayatollah Khomeini, all of whom published commentary on Mein Kampff. They could...

    Burnt: Bradley Cooper Foodie/Chef movie

    Screener's out for this. Alicia Vikander (the hottie from Ex Machina) has a small role where she just shows off how hot she really is when she's not some CGI'd-up sexbot.

    The Big Short: Pitt, Bale, Carrell do the subprime crisis

    CDOs weren't illegal. Securitization still isn't illegal. As bad as the mortgage bubble was, the same mechanism is behind thesecuritization of student loans, with roughly the same toxic brew of Ratings-Agency shenanigans backed by a state fiduciary (Sallie Mae) combining to snowball a...

    Already retracted. Apparently he's never published a mea culpa about anything ever, so we shouldn't be shocked that he let some snark about merchandising and theme parks sneak into his first attempt.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    The concept art leaks were all legit at least. I remember the concepts for Vader's ruined helmet, the wrecked At-At that was Rey's home and the crashed TIE fighter from last year's leak. I dunno about the script/outline leaks but the bit about the movie starting with Luke's hand floating in...

    Bespin figures pretty prominently with the new trilogy actually. It's kinda weird but there are a LOT of callbacks to it. I dunno what that timeline was, but apparently the spoilers from a year ago that had TFA open with Luke's severed hand floating with his lightsaber was actually in the...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I dunno about "getting away with it" even back in the 80's. His claim to pushing the technical envelope in filmmaking is fair, but his impact is actually more pronounced in sound than visual effects back then since the visual effects weren't ALL Lucasfilm until much later. Not even Lucas at...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There's an excellent chance his entire existence will be as a plot device to show flashbacks to R+L, the Harrenhal Tourney and the Tower of Joy. So actually, yeah.

    That's Lucas/Charlie Rose interview was an HOUR LONG. If you were outraged by his hypocrisy from that ONE line, wait till you get a load of an hour of him comparing himself to Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola and regarding himself as an "outsider" artist. With a straight fucking face the...
