the dc universe making a green lantern show created by damon lindelof starring kyle chandler seems oddly desperate to win over the alan sepinwall demo.

tragic news: a cinema i've been going to for 25 years is at this point having issues with projector dimness so severe that i keep thinking films other people are saying look great are ugly. time to break up.

is it the joker. i bet it's the joker.

the opening line of star wars is and always will be "hello, i'm leonard maltin".

has blank check ever done an episode where david tells ben about british dennis the menace. feels like a character he'd get a kick out of lol.

I feel so bad for people who can’t eat gluten. They’ll never know that it’s one of the best-tasting substances ever, better than even the most decadent of chocolates. It gives life purpose and meaning with every bite

being a dog must be a life of constant disappointment. all those times you think you're getting a walk but the human is just doing something else.

people keep trying to tell me parks and rec is realistically depicting the slow and hard grind of governing and i'm just like, the show keeps telling us leslie is superwoman. it's a fantasy aimed at exactly you.

The lib brained sitcom that secretly has Good Politics sort of for my money is Superstore. Good example of form following function: the writers were not more radical than those of say, Brooklyn Nine Nine, but if your protagonists are service workers than their concerns become your concerns.

parks and rec is secretly a more mean spirited and cynical show than a lot of "edgier" sitcoms that dislike its main characters.

If Parks and Rec has a million haters, then I'm one of them. If Parks and Rec has one hater, then I'm THAT ONE. If Parks and Rec has no haters, that means I'm dead.

parks and rec utterly despises the ordinary people of pawnee. it deeply resents anyone outside of leslie's inner circle. deeply nasty work that thinks itself hopeful and optimistic.

Parks and Rec is, like Hamilton, well made entertainment, but the criticisms of it are with merit. They are for better and ill extremely products of their time.

My dad's girlfriend once tried to persuade him to see a hypnotist to quit smoking, but he refused because he "knew a guy who recovered a terrible memory under hypnosis and couldn't stop screaming". It took my sister to point out that he didn't; that was something that happened on The Simpsons.

what do i know, but i feel like you can't jump from "even new york city is swinging much further towards trump now, that's how far left the democrats got" to "obviously a socialist can win in *new york*, that's totally different to everywhere else" without explaining some things.

i like my tv episodes the way i like my beef ribs: short

the true story of an ardent anti-american shitposter who falls in love with a girl from rural illinois

leadership says this, but i do not think the people still voting labour see themselves as voting for the right bloc

are people just expected to buy a whole tub of creme fraiche for this and have the rest of it sit in the fridge? classic bad recipe writing, using economies of scale that make sense in restaurants but not at all in the home kitchen.

There is no suvh thing as "levels looking good for only 6 months on HRT" Your levels, including T suppression, is gonna stabalize with in a month. The only reason the numbers should look different to a girl who's been on HRT 6 years is cos you are being underdosed. Whereas she defeated her doctor

*trying to show off* my constant posting got my girlfriend back on this app

...and less than 24 hours later Condé Nast has fired Lex and the rest of the Teen Vogue political desk, even as stories like this were bringing huge numbers of readers to the site

this is age-old discourse, i can't believe i'm seeing someone say this sincerely in 2025. this is a fake problem located entirely within a specific type of fandom. there is plenty of non-gay art about male friendship and being gay continues to be much more stigmatized than "men being friends"

just now realised when people call the fantastic four "marvel's first family", they're meaning "first" in terms of rank, like the us president's "first family". not that they were the earliest family to appear in marvel comics.

feel a kind of sadness every time i see a street called "station road" that's right next to a train line but doesn't have a train station anymore. this is what they took from us.

the other day @ravennoises.bsky.social said "idk if you know but twin peaks was really big in japan", then i immediately went to youtube to get the georgia coffee ads she had never seen.

Well-meaning Americans in my mentions: kindly do not recommend extremely illegal actions that could land people in the UK with a ten year prison sentence

A huge part of the impetus for Dorley as a story is the history of centralised healthcare apparatus in the UK coming for every provider of private/independent trans care and shutting them down by any means necessary, shunting patients towards an NHS system designed to keep them from transition.

guy who gets glen powell mixed up with glenn close

tbh i was kind of rooting for nominative determinism when i named myself

right after i just kissed her: "you didn't want to hear about pokemon tcg pocket".

it's universal

just thought of an x-men question that i didn't ask her to avoid another whole lore dump

raven has realised i can shut up her nerd lore infodumps by kissing her, so now she's trying really hard to make sure she continues the train of thought afterwards.

Last genuine post for a while: If you’re debating starting HRT but are worried about the fallout it may have on your life, just fucking rip it. Get on hormones and figure that shit out later. It’s what I did 2.5 years ago, and I’m better for it in every way.

halloween name retired

nightmare scenario. netflix doesn't want anything but the ip. destroying a giant studio to get an 8 episode batman show.

his lifelong anti-union stance should really kill the "based leftist george lucas" stuff tbh

all the narratives of star wars' productions are about lucas' grumbles with the british crews who didn't "get" it and wanted to go home on time. like, those guys made the films! the production values! the below the line workers were everything on the original trilogy.

amused me that in bbc's original review of star wars in 1977, the critic barry norman cracks a joke that while a lot of the work was done in the uk, none of the profits will be reinvested in british cinema. that's every hollywood production shot in uk now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSKJ...

harry osborn does not know anything about how to make an omelette. low heat, harry. low heat!

is this... is this anything?

going to get cancelled for telling people actually it's fewer

harry osborn in the raimi films is the most entitled unpleasant rich kid on the planet, except for his very sincere frienship with peter, the one person he genuinely likes lol

the case for t4t dating right here

there is something vaguely distressing about 20something hangout shows still existing while i'm in my 30s.
