Thanks for reminding me about one of the dumbest scenes in the show. Arya and Gendry get it on the night before they expect to die (makes sense). Gendry falls for her, his long time friend who he finally got to bang (makes sense). After a sudden turn of fortune he realizes he's now in a position...

And while Idris Elba is a great actor, his casting as Heimdall was fucking absurd and his casting as gunslinger was an over the top parody of SJWism. When they cast a movie about African warriors, notice how they cast 100% black people to play them? All I ask is them same attention to detail...

Lets be clear. Valkyrie's character in the movies is cool, I like her. And the black chick playing her is a good actress. It was still goddamn ridiculous casting an African chick for a Nordic goddess. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e2/Valkyrie_by_Mike_Deodato.png This isnt a grey...

Now just hold on one second. Hiring an African chick to play a Nordic goddess isnt some kind of grey area where you have to have your SJW detectors finely tuned to detect it. Its full on, over the line, so ridiculous it can't be parodied, SJWism. Its hiring a legless person to play the flash...

This is so funny, I'm picturing having to have that conversation with my son one of these days and wondering how I'll keep from cracking up

Tolkien doth protest too much. He said that because so many people read the obvious meaning in his story. It's not 'my take' - its such a common reading of the story that Tolkien had to go on record saying 'no, thats not what I meant'. Tolkien hated direct allegory, and was ashamed to realize...

The scouring of the shire was an important moral epilogue to ROTK. It hurts me that apparently so few here liked or understood it. The moral of the scouring of the shire was clear: you don't leave evil alone to fester. You dont give evil a second chance. You kill Saruman when you have the...

No. Big retarded earphones don't sound better. But please do tell me all about how you can totally hear the difference. I hear they sound even better with a gold plated audio input cable. What, you can't hear the difference this cable makes? Clean your ears!

Saving people from death is evil because they'll later face struggle and discomfort? I know its just comic book movies but thats pretty dumb. Would they have preferred to come back right away? Sure. But that would doom all the people born during that five years. Stark wasnt the only one to...

Watched it on HBO Now on a not-top-of-the-line TV. Reading all these complaints about "its too dark" and "you need to calibrate your TV" is like listening to a bunch of people try to convince me the music sounds better on big retarded headphones instead of earbuds like a normal person uses...

Ultimately this show suffered the same fate as Gervais last show. He gets these great ideas for how to take a sad situation and find the funny in it. He does amazing things with it for a few episodes. Then he completely runs out of funny but keeps making episodes. Two series in a row now with...

Bzzzt wrong. They were obsessed with killing their babies long before stem cells was a thing. That just gave them a new, only slightly less horrible motivation to sell.

I basically want to buy tickets to support it, then not watch. Since I'm not a terrible human being and already know how abortion works, the thought of abortion already makes me physically ill, and have no desire to watch even fictional footage of one. Very glad they made it and I hope it is...

Its such a funny plan, because logistics dictate it'll only work in dense urban areas. Which should work out great, because the people who live in dense urban areas would never do things like steal Amazon boxes off of porches. I'm sure theyll be even less likely to steal flying amazon boxes...

... I gotta admit, it appears I have mis underestimated the amount of twist endings in classic TZ episodes. Think I need to watch some of those again now, I'd forgotten about several of those.

I'm trying to be open minded here but I dont see the big flaws you guys are obsessing over. I've heard people calling it predictable. I dont recall watching the original and being surprised by a "twist". It was never that kind of show. The formula was "change this one thing, and watch the...

Youre probably right, but if so, what an idiot. Doesnt want to be typecast as badass, relentless, and clever? I look forward to the 'challenging' and 'interesting' roles she takes on in the future instead. Arya is probably the most universally liked character in GoT and she doesnt want to be...

It wasnt perfect, but it was good. As a long time TZ fan, I wanted to watch the second episode as soon as the first ended. I don't recall the original TZ being about super surprising twists, more about the experience of watching it play out. and I didnt mind the bad comedy about 2A because...

Not implementation. I object to the idea that I'm gonna carry around some fucking piece of hardware in order to access my information. This is fundamentally backwards, the opposite of progress. We used to be able to access our information using information. Now we need fucking hardware. I go...

I've been married 11, and I completely relate. Solid marriage life skill. Listen attentively, then put it out of my head completely and don't worry about it. In very much the same way that I don't actually spend time worrying about my parenting skills after my 5 year old tells me I'm the worst...

Seriously. She was cute before in a weird way. Thats quite a transformation.

People making stupid decisions with their passwords only hurts them. TFA inconveniences everyone to a ridiculous, unacceptable level. Why the fuck would I voluntarily accept a system that forces me to carry a specific electronic device around with me everywhere I go, and lose access to all my...

I like the idea but no way in fuck I'd pay $100. Double the ticket price, at the absolute max. And I'd question that.

Yeah, its called sufficiently long passwords. The idea that my access to information is going to be dependent on the physical location of a device, or the battery life of that device, is so asinine I know a progressive came up with it. What a dumb fucking idea. There was nothing wrong with...

Two factor fucking authentication. Future societies will look back on this as barbaric, with the same horror we reserve for infant sacrifice. I need to kill someone

Does any of this alt history stuff exist in text form somewhere? Its interesting enough to read about, but no way in hell I'm gonna subject myself to hours of youtube vids. Sincere question.

Would this reasoning also work with other areas we try to avoid getting shit? "This wont get any shit in your food. At most just a few specks of shit. no biggie" (not an anti-anal post, just a call a spade a spade post)

I'm pretty sure I'm old enough to be your dad, and I did say "arguably". Lynda Carter was hot but yeah, Gal Gadot is hotter. Halle Barrey hot, WTF. Gross. She could play the Penguin and she wouldnt even be the hottest Penguin.

Aside from the lame CGI villain (and he takes several points off the movie's score, its true), whats there to even complain about? Great casting, tolerable writing, a Wonder Woman arguably hotter than Lynda Carter kicking ass. What more did anyone want from a WW movie?

What a great trailer. Can they really pull off a third season as good as that trailer?

When I meet people that didnt like these movies in RL, it makes me sincerely question their quality as human beings. I am gonna hold out and be foolishly optimistic. I hope they dont prove me wrong. Look, at lease they didnt recast Bill as a black chick, OK? It is already doing really really...

Laughed out lout throughout the first several episodes. Good shit.

Since its currently not possible to like a post, I'll reply and say +1 I think about it this way. I don't dislike dogs, they're cute. Sincerely. Outdoor dogs are pretty great. I just hate anything that 1. shits on my yard 2. eats shit and vomit 3. then proceeds to lick me 4. chews up anything...

Um, I suggest reviewing the source material before claiming Hollywood invented details about Jewish history. You can take issue with the historical accuracy of the source material but Hollywood didnt invent this detail.

The first book is great. Season 1 vaguely corresponds to the first part of book 1. Book 1 is great. Season 1 was surprisingly watchable despite making Lynch's Dune look like a faithful adaptation. Its hysterical how many fundamental details they changed, its like they were trying to...

Combat veteran has a captain america glass eye for an eye lost in a service-related injury? Do I have this right? I hope someone is working on the future presidential campaign, the shit writes itself.

These were so good. Somehow I didnt even hate Ellen Page. Just the right balance between revealing enough details and keeping some mystery. Is there any news if it gets a second season yet?

I am so tired of the bullshit that single income cant support a family anymore. My dad supported so many kids on a single income, you suburban fucks would think I was shitting you if I named numbers and AGI. I'm half the man my dad is, but I've supported 3 and and a wife for about a decade. I...

They pick a D-list unknown Marvel heroine, pick an unattractive and outspokenly feminist actress to play her, dress her in the least sexy possible iteration of her comic book appearance, and write what appears to be a generic and forgettable story about her. Then they blame the results on...

God Emperor of Dune is possibly the best sci fi book of all time. Keep going, its worth it.
