@modern lichen a problem i did have with black adam well more so the rock || is how he's aiming to have black adam be like the next big bad right but to me it almost resolved itself sorta. So i can't see a real reason for him and supes to hash it out like what reason would black adam have to leave aside from the like "nobody tells me what to do" thing. Not fully confirmed but i heard that suicide squad 2021 was supposed to have black adam or supergirl instead of starro so i'm really curious assuming gunn even does that. I think if anything he'd have to do things with shazam but by then i still can't see him being a villain yknow? but i aint read a single mf black adam comic in my life i know nothing bout him aside from what we were shown in the movie and maybe that one animated movie|. I can't see him being a full on villain and even seeing him as the anti hero to an extent feels off since he did in some ways grow in black adam but yeah that's just my thinkin and ion really think gunn will make black adam a major player. big yes but imo not this like massive player unless it's for shazam then maybe workin into superman. sry for the ramble just been on my mind for a few weeks lol|| black adam
more like mid adam
State of Fear || @scenic frost holy shit dude. The tsunami waves thing in Resolution bay. The setup of first ch is finally coming to play
I had forgotten the Resolution bay thing they had mentioned way back was still important. Also everything's just getting scarier lol.
Tho I still can't see how this can end in a satisfying way. ||
Hadn't gotten time to read the past few days 
Also
|| That ch after the name drop, regarding the conversation between Hoffman and Evans about how law-media-university-politics create a state of fear to feed themselves and instill social control, was some real shit man. Probably won't stop thinking about it for a while ||
State of Fear^
Glad you like it

On the final segment now. Probably would read in one go tonight. Doesn't seem smth I should be interrupted while reading
The book blends thriller and sci-fi pretty well tbh tho it does get some science-y stuff wrong lol
I think it further helps one of the point the book is trying to make
|| Don't trust every bit of information without properly researching || State of fear
Well idr the finale exactly anymore so can't comment lol
I am excited for it
Yeah lol
Also
State of fear || Inclusion of Ted Bradley in these has been super good recently. Juxtaposing the reaction of his to things with Evans conveys the point even well.
Like the recent one was when they were about to land in resolution bay. Ted trying to glorify the place by praising thr natural beauty while ignoring the people's living conditions, and Evans noticing the poverty provides such a proper effects of what Ted and Kenner were previously talking about how environmentalists, and by extension rich assholes, not giving a damn about the consequences of their actions ||
Black Adam || yeah I agree, they gave him an overtly hero arc as the protector of an entire nation so seeing him be the antagonist or even as an anti hero is going to be weird. Not sure how it's going to factor into the future rivalry with Shazam as well if they're setting up to expand into that. Comics Adam def has a more negative streak so it's easy to see how he antagonized Shazam or Superman ||
Has anyone seen the boys
quite a few people here have yes
State of Fear || wtf!!! Morton's alive!!! ||
andor episode tomorrow 
@scenic frost Finished State of Fear. Haven't read the "Where I stand in all this" portion that the author has included.
State of Fear || The final ch, and by extension the ending, was profound. Especially the bit that Kenner says to Sarah about the history of earth thing. It was just exposition so was hard to view it as a dialogue, but played it like the ending monologue sort of thing so worked well.
Morton's conversation with Evans and Sarah was really the best part of this ch, and what a fabulous way to end it. Ngl had me tear up cuz it gave the honest, pure sort of vibe. It was quite powerful to read.
Also yea gripping thriller for the final segment. Finishing it felt like a massive achievement due to how intense it got with the topics it covered at times lol.
Also only noticed at the end but the whole thing took place within 10 days. Like wtf. Like I shouldn't really be surprised but I was lol.
It was such a cathartic read.
Also I really wasn't expecting cannibalism and people getting turned into dust described lol. Took me by surprise there. Was quite expecting a confrontation with Nick-Henley-V side and their truths being exposed sort of thing to be at the end, but that would have been difficult to end and would have felt like a slog to read given everything had ended. The promise the series had ended on was more than enough to like guarantee that what I was expecting would have happened in the story at later point.
Damn this was a great one. Already want to reread it again 😭 😭 😭 ||
If you feel state of fear was that great wait till you read Andromeda Strain
It's one of his very best tbh evn tho it's one of his earliest
I doubt any science-thriller would surprass this for me. Even his other works lol
But lets see

Indeed
state of fear is a good thriller but is horrible with data
I do believe airframe won't tho sadly
Andromeda strain wasn't in the used bookstore
i dont really find it to be the best, for me it doesnt hit the highs of JP, Andromeda Strain or Sphere

It's okay as a thriller and it's more like a science-y thriller than sci-fi
Ah
Airframe i mean
Ah
For me it was one of his weakest books iirc
I am on self imposed book buying ban so I hope Andromeda strain or Prey or Sphere is available till then
But idk was a few years ago so maybe misremembering
Is the Jurassic park novel same as Steven Spielberg's movie?
Wanted to attach these two with it but forgot so here it goes.
State of Fear
Well, got them in different order but w/e
universe starting to make sense
hey I know him from a DC movie I saw recently
Mister Terrific?
Bee and PuppyCat ep1 ||what the heck is this? I am co fused and intrigued||

yo that would be cool
That is a perfect description of Most Marvel fans.

||Victorian|| mistborn era 2
I FORGOT THIS WAS COMING OUT
I NEED THIS NOW
RIGHT NOW

Fuck
Deliver shows December 8-10

And it's expensive as fuck
Kindle mate
Yeah that's what I am gonna have to do
The Kindle edition costs as much as what i normally pay for a paperback 
This is the first time i feel bad about pirating something
Speaks volumes about Sando that does

Probably should be in your nearest bookstores 
Sanderson's stuff usually are everywhere lol
Btw since I remembered now, which was the stand alone cosmere novel that was getting a sequel?
Shang-Chi ||I'm so glad marvel reinvented their take on the Mandarin, man. Iron man 3 take was not only undignifing, it was also disappointing that there where no rings. And now im sad Weng Wu will never fight Iron Man
||
Elantris and Warbreaker, but latter isnt confirmed
2/3 way through Iron Widow. This is getting so much better than what I was expecting.
Andor episode today boys
Good idea will check tomorrow
@young compass how much of Aibou have you watched btw?
time for andor 
andor latest ||maarva...

andor latest ||love the interaction between cassian and the aliens where the common hatred for the empire drives the aliens to let the two live and escape||

I'm really excited for that
just rewatched batman begins and the dark knight, begins is good, but dark knight is actually friggin amazing. rises tomorrow.
prepare to be disappointed with rises
I finished Morgana and Oz, super cute webtoon ||that backstory with young Morgana and the vampire hit hard like a truck. Unexpectedly good. || I’m gonna add this to my good webtoons list. I want more, I want more Morgana. 😭
Anyone watched ancient apocalypse on Netflix
aint watched netflix in a good min tbh
@modern lichen since the dceu has missed their chance to do batman right basically fucking up robin, do you think it;d be better to bring in damian and like already have nightwing
saving time and moving forward story
bc we seen robin done in the animated shows and comics so we know
saw casablanca
and damian been v popular lately so i think it'd just be better at this point to get the ball rolling
Casablanca || it's so crazy to me to see movies about ww2 made during ww2, i don't think ive ever seen one before. the france song moment was real nice ||
My fav moment
@lone bay Iron Widow is totally worth it.
Best fantasy I have read this year other than rereads
I desperately need a part two of it now

Also @primal mason if you were waiting to hear opinion of someone you know about this book
It's a quick read too btw. Like around 4 hrs of read.
Flows really well and has very less exposition
Should probably read a Christie now before starting another huge one

What anime OP is it parodying?
Cause I am not a weeb

You are
Read stormlight
Only catching up when book 5 is nearly done
Would do Mistborn Era one hopefully within this year tho
And the stand alone cosmere ones too if I find them in a nearby bookstore. Not finding them nowadays
Its nearly done
How much %?
You could have caught up on stormlight for the secret projects 😔
18, which is like 100k words
He was planning 2023 but then he accidentally wrote 4 novels
Yeah I now remember the video
So that year it will be the 4 novels
Did you read the secret projects?
The samples yea
They come out every 3 months next year
Yeah I had listened to that man transported to medieval age one too
Which was secret project 3 iirc
Brandon tried to keep the novels secret
Then torbooks comes in with their shitty gifs and spoils the titles and synopsis
Where are you now? US?
Ah
Where did you get US from 
Thought you are there for college
Better late than never
Sorry for the late reply but for them to do that, they need to setup Ra's and Talia Al Ghul plus Damian, they need to setup and show Dick doing his Nightwing thing and then bring all of those elements together. That in itself is a movie or so.
Best buds
scorsese might be my favorite person ever
Look at the affable old man and smile
i look up to him so much
wow
Does it count as a film....?
so that is his last thing?
probably not
lmao
Holy shit
man should i watch el camino or skip it to bcs
watch el camino
Forget it even exists
el camino is good
watch it
❌
gonna watch a scorsese today for the big mans birthday
wolf of wall street maybe ive never seen that
El Camino was alright
moreso feels like an average episode with the budget of a movie
an average breaking bad episode is pretty great

@feral kettle you seeing this?
i wish i didnt
you're welcome
best buds for life
schrader got shorter or martin got bigger
Dark knight rises gets more shit than its deserves, its really good
Today I learned Cate Blanchett is Australian, for years I thought she was British for some reason 
Don't worry I thought Orlando Bloom was from New Zealand despite him sounding very English for a long time. Lol
really good movie
He’s so real
richard ayoade's debut too, such a good movie
I like the jokes very much
Submarine movie
Crying in the club
Todays the 17th
and Kevin Conroy died on the 10th
you watched it?
phenomenal film
Hows 1899 series ? Worth the hype?

I did actually just start reading that webtoon recently though
i just finished
The Autopsy of Jane Doe
solid. pretty scary
|| i love how in sync the dad and son were. no stubborn boomer being in denial, as soon as shit hit the fan the dad was like "lets get out of here".i cried when he died||
It's from the creators of Dark. Which is one of the greatest show ever made. Hopefully this one is just as good
Yup i have heard that
Have high hopes too
Can't wait for fantastic four mcu
And blade
Blade 1 and 2 really good
Hopefully bring back og blade actor too when the ||multiverse war|| happens
You'll have to spoiler tag this bit ig
MCU phase 4 || The multiversal War is a loki spoiler ||
Wesley Snipes?
Unfortunately I am not interested in the MCU but I still gotta watch the Batman movie
It's very good
I'm very interested in the mcu
Gotta watch
I'm suffering from long term MCU fatigue. Lol
So many hype movies coming out in like next 3 years, very insane
Finally we're out of phase 4 trash
The most recent one I've seen was Dr. Strange 2
I didn't watch strange 2
It was fun. A bit trippy like the first one.
The hype for superior iron man was insane
Its a comic
Its basically like evil iron man or something with one of the infinity stone as his power source
People were expecting Tom cruise to play superior iron man in MoM
And ofc he didn't appear in the MoM and now people are calling it a horrible movie
It's kinda funny because ||Spider man no way home could've had the same stuff happening to it if The two other spider man didn't appear||
||Atleast fantastic four reed Richards appeared but... Fuck they completely destroyed such a great casting and made one of the smartest man alive into the dumbest man alive||
Especially with Charles Xavier
Finished two trilogies (in home cinema set up)
Godfather 5/5
Godfather 2 5/5
Godfather 3 CODA 3/5
Batman begins 3/5
The dark knight 5/5
The dark knight rises 4/5
Hoping I can get my hands on lotr and mad max trilogy next

now i am forced to watch some mid...
s2 has been fine, just started it, s1 was not fine
I heard it gets better as they find the right notes to hit
yooooooooo
only the modern stuff ofc, not gonna watch the old stuff
just like the latest 12 seasons i think? thats the new stuff
S3 and 4 are the best seasons
quick, say you are reading batman too
S10 and S8 are both better than any matt smith era series
9 is trash tho
7 is too mostly
S4 of the Office is the best too
Prime comedy
Also, the perfect episode of The Office is in S4
Yea from the interviews it sounds like Schur learnt a lot of storytelling stuff from writing it
then went on to create peak fiction with the good place
Season 1 was trying to emulate the British office with the cringe humor but for the most part that didn't land
Is ricky gervais not funny
thank you
@fading lagoon was banned!

Just finished bojack s4

Who's directing DW this season(s)?
Russel t davies is returning
Ohh
Episode directors are Rachael Talalay (Heaven Sent, Death in Heaven, The Doctor Falls, etc) then Tom Kingsley, Chanya Button for the 60th

TWD s5 ep4 ||bruh she thinks she’s Luffy 💀||
actually getting emotional that next week is going to be the last andor episode
i love the show so much
Ms Marvel was one of my favorite newcomers from last decade ||so watching her series so early in the mcu feels unreal. Her power seems weird, but stretching cgi may be super expensive so i dont mind.|| Ms Marvel ep2
Is Knives out 2 already out? 
wednesday i think
Nice. Hopefully it's available in theatres near me
He is, yeah
what're the theatres like there
Uh, I mean it depends. There are multiplexes with a lot of screens and there are single screen theatres which are dominant
Indian theatre culture is pretty diverse and different
Is that the season with || Roast of Michael Scott? || Office
The Office S4 || dinner party episode ||
Ah
That episode is my favourite in the series
Just the right amount of cringe and just hilarious inter character relationships and tangles
I try to watch The Office but I can't get into it.
That's fair
The first two seasons are really weak
It's cringe humor
The memes are great tho
bones and all wasnt as good as i thought itd be but i still really liked it
The show or is it a movie?
Masterpiece. God I love it.
Movie
Ahh

TAR ||the ghost is an amazing detail||

absolute banger year for film
This year has been a miracle for movies
A lot of stinkers but goddamn the movies have come back swinging
Cuz no covid
That's just an aspect that relates to the logistics of the industry, I'm talking about the quality of filmmaking
TV has had a great year as well
Just quality storytelling
Well if there are more movies made, chances are more are good
Das what i was referring to
Yeah, that's what I said about it regarding the logistics of movies being made by movie industries throughout the world, notwithstanding that, I'm talking about the specific return to good form for movie making and the type of stories being told
@jolly heath

and so many future projects lined up thay look amazing

🙃
ninja turtle cover goes so hard
Saga 
best comic that isnt saga
you're wrong but thats ok
Thanks a lot. Probably would go with this first as I had asked in some subreddits too and this answer came up multiple times.

Also do you know of an story with an uninformed narrator?
Kind of like in The Fall of the House of Usher by EA Poe
Or misinformed narrator working in tandem with a reliable one.
Had read The man in the brown suit the other day so am craving for one with such
Recently watched the movie the net from 1995 starring sandra bullock. Decent movie. Has a good villain.

How is that weird
Ohhh, that's toward to that weird post on here
Which is apparently deleted. Lol
Great book, read if you have the chance and the stomach
I’m sorry for being weird and annoying. I partially hate myself when I post stupid shit like that
Robert Pattinson looks like a vampire
well, the look in the batman is pretty damn cool
Yes it is
Lol that's funny given his big claim to fame was being a vampire

He looks more like a vampire in the Batman than he looks like one in Twilight from what little I've seen of Twilight

@sage remnant you mean you want books that deal with unreliable narrators?
Ms Marvel ep3 ||i have to admit that if i try to pair this story with the comics I get heavily confused. Like why Kamala has Amir powers, and why the mcu didn't try to fix the inhumans fiasco with this perfect opportunity? Why bring a third failed xmen clone into the mix?||
Not exactly that. Not the unreliable narrator due to bias, but due to narrator being uninformed or misinformed.
Like the most unreliable narrator I remember are ones withholding info or telling lies because they are biased, but uninformed as in they aren't telling lies, but it comes off as ambiguous or misleading due to the narrator not being competent enough
If that makes sense
Basically want stories with some really creative narrators
I don't know whether you have read The man in the brown suit or not. Huge spoilers of it || In that, there are two narrators, one being our main character who is reliable, and the other being a journal of some other person who was in her journey, which later is proved to be an unreliable narrator due to them being big bad ||
|| Which makes the read interesting, as there are inconsistencies which makes you doubt it, but it is shown to be trustworthy over time just to do the reveal in the next chapter. || The man in the brown suit
ok immediately these come to mind
rebecca by daphne du maurier
the wind up word chronicle by haruki murakami

shutter island is the same as the movie yes

apparently it was suicide too so extra sad

Did you read the lost metal yet
pc's having some issues, will prolly watch s2 once its fixed tomorrow 👍
What happened
Jason David Frank died 
Was that confirmed anywhere?
I mean given his age that certainly seems likely short of a sudden medical incident
As sad as his death is this spelling error from the AP got a chuckle out of me
All that time we thought they were fighting evil demons, monsters, and machine they were all just tripping out on Morphine 
Lol
all things considered, what happens in The Menu is pretty tame as far as “traveling to private islands with Ralph Fiennes” goes

Third trilogy done, went with matrix.
Matrix: 5/5
Matrix Reloaded: 3/5
Matrix Revolution: 2/5
i agree
the first matrix movie is a work of genuine mastery
the wachowskis popped off with that
For real, its perfect
Reloaded is a bit uneven but theres some gold in there, revolution was just kind of boring
you didnt watch matrix resurrections?
no such thing as a bad matrix movie
resurrections is directed just by one of the wachowski sisters, lana
BOOOOO
Shame they never could properly build off of the first matrix
both avatar fans disagree, says a lot about avatar and its fans
(very boring)
the third one nami swan seems like they left
I admit the most recent Matrix was fun, but I think it could've been better
oh shoot nami swan left huh
resurrections had issues but its still a cool wachowski film and theres some real good stuff in it
both are just ok
called superior taste
its concepts are pretty cool, just dragged down by the filmmaking
like 1/3rd of the reason i defend resurrections is because alot of the people who dislike it are annoying
I'll give resurrections a 7 out of 10
based
cant wait for the andor finale
but i'm also sad its the finale
cant wait to write a long ass review about it
Ah Andor is a masterpiece
Better than ROP
ROP really disappointed me ngl
I was hoping for a good portray of middle of the in second age
i dont know what warranted the comparison with ROP tbh lol
Ah then yeah, Andor is just so much better than both ROP and House of the Dragon
Seated waitin for the movie :)
They put it in the whack auditorium where there’s only one entrance so everyone can see I’m alone

DW S11 || just finished Demons of the Punjab. Easily my favorite of the season so far and theres no competition. This episode was really powerful, i liked the aliens too and i didnt even mind that they took such a backseat this time because the rest of it was so good. thats the first time ive ever seen the partitioning covered in a show too.||
DW S11 || so far Demons of the Punjab >>Rosa>Woman who fell to earth > Arachnids in the UK> Ghost monument > Tsuranga Conundrum
I’m glad there’s been at least one truly standout episode though ||
Bruh
Didn't know this has already advanced this much
People actually using these...
||9 is another standout, genuinely a hidden writing gem|| doctor who s11
Wut this
Like If you are at a point where you have an AI helping you write, why even write at all
Writing is the most bland part of writing honestly
Second one is somewhat alr thing. It is just like having a friend role play as one of your characters
Its the barrier for a lot of potential creators
Depends for me.
Its just demotivating most times
That's everything at the start
That’s interesting, could be a good way to come up with ideas I guess
Eh
You have to work to achieve a level where you can enjoy writing.
I am still not on that. And the only way to reach there is to write
But I would think fully letting an ai write a story can’t really come up with anything too unique? It would be pulling from existing patterns and structures, tropes etc.
The future is soon baby
Isn’t that what authors do as well
Using AI to write is like having someone else to write a part of story for you.
The discourse is same as it was for Midjourney AI art
??
I really dont think it is ever enjoyable lol
Your mindset just changes
We are about to reach a point where in a few years you can ask an AI "Siri can you play a movie where Ace was the protagonist of One Piece and it is a gothic story" and then a story plays lol
I would wholeheartedly deny.
But if you have depression it is very painful
Sounds sick as hell
Eh
I wouldnt blame anyone for using AI assisted tools when it takes that much of a toll on you
Well that's the difference there. Putting on effort stops counting at a point
Besides, for people like brandon most of his best writing is done through bigger plot and revisions
Didn't understand what you mean
Like
A first draft wouldn't ever be the 'best' writing
Well, your issue seems to be with revision and rewriting rather than the process of writing itself
Opposite
So the struggle that comes to getting words into paper is where your issue lies?
So the issue is about putting in effort to learn?
I dont think its about effort there
Well, the first draft is essentially depends on how one is able to put the idea into paper
Just think having an ai assistant tool for the first draft can be very beneficial for everyone
It just cheating in my opinion
It's like having someone else to write your whole book, add a few touches and revision, and say you wrote it
I mean ghost writers do exist
Well, yeah. And I hate that whole thing lol
It's just replacing human with AI to maximize output
Basically evolved plagiarism
30+ short books in 3 months is the key part here. Using AI generated text to just cheat
Tho I guess the discourse is the same as it was for AI generated art. Using it for experimental purpose is fun. Beyond it is unethical imo.
I mean, were they self published?
If not they did go through the quality check
So at that point i dont see the issue
I am still surprised by the fact that 1-2 years ago, the most AI art had progressed was Wombo Dream. And we already have Stable diffusion, Midjourney, Dalle and other shit
That could easily be maintained by a few revision
@copper phoenix was Textsynth the thing you told me about back when midjourney was in discussion here?
Oh
So adaptations and tv series arent included
He wants to do an adaptation of Stick apparently
What's that
Idk a book
I don't think tarantino will actually stop after 10 movies
but he's also got kids now so he probably won't be making a lot of movies
1899/Black Silence || https://twitter.com/marycagnin/status/1594190866041610240?t=YJ_S8fJBlqInDefLBGEFGw&s=19 ||
The author of Black Silence talks about how 1899 plagiarized her work
So December 18th I think is the 400th episode of Family Guy...
family peak
Shit still airs?
Congratulation to our Outstanding Contribution to Film and Television winner Peter Capaldi ✨

no one seems to be going near me so it should work out perfectly
Oh that was for 3 days later
Rewatched tenet, i still dont get everything lmao but its such a cool action movie
Tenet js so awesome
you dont gotta understand you gotta feeeeel it
tenet soundtrack adds to the experience of watching the movie for sure
ludwig gorannson was perfect for the movie
This is nothing more but a stunt by the author to sell more copies of her work.
|| the only similarities they have is they both have black pyramid . Its like saying 1899 plagiarised titanic because they both have ships ||
has anyone seen arcane?
No whats that
its a netflix show ive heard it was very good
i watched a couple episodes and it indeed was

Quite a few people here

Lyrics:
His name is James, James Cameron
The bravest pioneer
No budget too steep, no sea too deep
Who's that?
It's him, James Cameron...
James, James Cameron
explorer of the sea
With a dying thirst to be the first
Could it be? Yeah that's him!
James Cameron

That aint much tbh. Thats like your typical marvel movie budget
Your typical marvel movie has insane budget
@modern lichen just watched the Carpool lane episode of CYE and I'm pissing myself laughing

The batman/tenet || https://twitter.com/Factsonfilm/status/1594999668798148608 ||
avatar is one of the few movies that makes good use of 3d
i can only imagine avatar 2 would be better with it
Doctor who day tomorrow 🔥
New announcements
Spin-off announcement 90% sure
Wholesome 100
@glacial jetty Sequel
Cute
triangle of sadness is fuckin bonkers
about to watch it later
you lucky man
might see the fabelmans later rhis week
REEE
lmfaoooo
is he calling scorsese and tarantino racists
those 2 have done more than disney ever has for preserving and promoting world cinema
these people are catching onto scorsese for the comment he now made quite a while ago and has moved on from
they never stop being mad ab what he said
quite a cope
i dont recall tarantino saying those movies are bad just that he wont work with marvel?
he said some new stuff today
talked about how the leads arent movie stars
ppl see it for captain america not chris evans he said
well tarantino definitely despises disney lol
the hateful eight incident was some despicable shit
whats wrong with this at all lmaoo
taratino is right to dislike disney after they tried to shut out hateful 8 in theaters for star wars
its like the era of westerns but neverending
that shit was so sad
the problem is, its not about disney either
he's specifically talking about superhero movie culture and in particular the monopoly of the mcu
which is true, any product that is churned out is accepted by people and is the biggest front runner for movie audiences these days
What is even the point of this comment? Are movies with movie stars better?
Stupid ass Tarantino
I don’t think thats what was meant by that 
Are movie stars a thing of the past?
Would that be a good thing?
I’ve always felt weird about seeing a film for the actor and not the story itself
And ig the whole appeal of movie stardom has somewhat to do with marketing than anything.
I dont think that’ll ever really change tho. People get attached to stuff and wanna see more of it
I think series are the future and movies are gonna slow down
not gonna happen
I think the way in which we consume movies has changed and will continue to do so
The internet has made things more accessible for good or bad
What i’m really excited for is to see how many new and creative ways people will tell stories using technology.
Tiktok and vine and youtube really changed the game
It’s insane how people found ways to express so much with so little
Simu liu hates Asian women lol
they lowered the bar to be considered a "celebrity"
every time I hear about some tiktok or insta celeb I find it so funny
never heard of that person before but they have millions of followers
we'll never have that celeb craze from the past like michael jackson for example
Ok but who cares?
Idol worship is shit in any form
Which is a good thing
Because that mans life was plagued by peoples obsession with him
Also im never gonna be against regular people doing a thing and getting an insane amount of opportunities for it. As long as theyre not assholes of course. Altho im not a fan of what that kind of recognition can do to a person. Or to some extent that kind of people getting it that would abuse it
Also i say this but im probably guilty of it as well 😭.
But i absolutley love the idea of some kid saying they like corn on a vid. That vid going viral and now they’re in ads getting paid thousands. (Altho there’s a whole discourse to be had about child actors and if it’s healthy for them) or some lady saying “its a chicken salad” and now she’s putting together a dish for weight watchers.
😂
Unless it's david tennant
he deserves all of it
I take it ur a dr who fan lol
understatement if there was any lmao
Ms marvel ep 5 ||im not crying, you're crying
||
DW S11 || Kerblam! Is finished! Very solid episode, I think I enjoyed this the most out of every episode, only one being competition is Demons of the Punjab. Probably one of the weirdest messages in any episode of doctor who though? I wouldn’t have thought an episode set in literal space Amazon would end with the system being the good guy, and the bad guy being a super young guy who thought that more people should have jobs? Which is what ended up happening anyway at the end since the HR lady said she’d try and make Kerblam more people focused
It was a nice subversion of expectations though, just needed a bit more time to hammer out the nuance. It might’ve been a little boring if the message were just “corporations bad” . other than the resolution it was really fun though. And poor keira 😢 that scene was mortifying. Solid 7.34/10 😀 ||
DW S11 ||The message in that episode is pretty wtf but it's super enjoyable for me ||
DW S11 || it’s definitely the most fun I’ve had with an episode this season. It also just struck me how little the doctor cared about saving Charlie at the end lol. A simple “those robots are about to blow up!” Would’ve done.||
DW S11 ||She did tell him to "get out of there, last warning" iirc||
DW || yea but she didn’t really tell him why. Dude was super confused and he probably could’ve been saved I feel ||
DW S11 ||Well he was the one that made the bubblewrap explosive lol||
Saw love death and robots for the first time hit or miss but the animation is cool
That said the segment beyond the Aquila rift was prolly the most. ||Haunting thing I’ve ever seen in my life, I’m gonna have nightmares about that||
It's an anthology series so yeah its gonna be hit or miss depending on the content of respective ones
from a round table with all of these people
is there a video
in the article yeah its 55 mins, this is heavily edited down
Tom Holland will be the next movie star 
Yeah its really scattershot but theres some awesome episodes
Idk why netflix works like this but i ended up watching the 3rd season before I saw anything else
because when you just click "watch" thats where it takes you
Girl get over that frog eater
What kinda insult is that against my man? 
Lmaooooo
Guillermo del Toro 's Pinocchio looks amazing
quentin tarantino apparently directed 8 episodes of some limited series tv show
he didnt say the name tho
hype 
LUFFFFYYYYY
Tarantino did an episode of ER back in the 90s
damn
RIP Jason David Frank. You made power rangers in the U.S a staple throughout the years. You will be sorely missed. 💚🤍❤️🖤

Meet the Fourteenth Doctor on the #DoctorWho website ➡️ https://t.co/qMK2DhFIjz
So many announcements today wtf
Only ones I’ve known about are Tennant, the blonde woman, and tbh that one thst is 5 right of him looks familiar but that could just be because he’s similar-looking to Tennant
Only episodes I’ve watched of Dr who were ||an episode where like a 10 year old’s drawing has powers to whisk people away if she draws them and another one where, maybe a common reoccurring enemy?, was reproducing on Earth and some politician was trying to become their ally and it ends with them blowing up the home ship||

Capaldi or John hurt?
Also tennant is in there twice lol
looks it's probbaly tennant #2 i said look familiar
i meant my right and not his 😎
at least not according to his filmography. Only thing ive seen him is harry potter and not like he's a prevalent character either
Just... a huge fucking grenade lmao
Isn't this the plot of "Speed"
one of the greatest actors ever

I got burner series in the background to keep my head cool
Harsh, look at this cast list
like randomly watching Peanuts for no reason

While I'm here, I was gonna grab "Years and Years" as well as "Clone High" due to recommendations
clone high is iconic
I've heard
Years and Years 

yes
it was super interesting
and i just have a special interest in radioactivity so my opinion might be biased
im reading the book too
horrific stuff
I see


rawness and swag
The Flash #122
fabelmans tickets acquired
Finished Bojack Horseman
Howd you like it?
Great show really takes off after s1
There is no fucking WAY people want Jesse eisenbergs lex luthor back
Snyder cultists insane man
wait
And people want Robert Downey jr as lex… lmaooo
really?
Human rights need to be earned not given
I fuckin hate sites like screen rant but I just looked through comments
And like 8 were for fucking Jesse as lex
robert downey jr played a rich asshole so he must play another rich asshole?
Any big actor goes bald boom lex luthor
Man
Friend sent a pic of this black actor I was unfamiliar with n he’d be a good lex
Dude playing lex on titans currently? I like that interpretation just based on look
Time to watch Ninjago
Nah not him harsh I’ll find the pic later
But honestly the lex in titans is diff but I like him actually. His mannerisms are right too
Nevermind, Netflix doesn't even start in the correct place as a start
"season 1" my ass
The smell of this book istg
some gourmet shit
i picked up one of the first paperback copies of TKAM in an ADU thats about to be demolished
please let robert downey jr be in some quality films for once.. he was great in zodiac
LOL
I decided make use of my tapas points and read Beginning of the End again. It’s ok junk food overall.|| It’s got the veins of Mushoku Tensei, but the MC is mid. Dude is like a righteous justice kind hero from the start as he grows to become a king and there’s not much I can take out of his arc.||
|| What’s the point of being reincarnated if he’s the same person from start to end. And things go his favor easily when he fights against enemies with his growing OP abilities. So yeah I think I’m gonna drop it. I expected a little more for a series that’s highly advertised on Tapas, Tapas’ biggest cash cow. At most, this series generallly feels like fantasy wish fulfillment. || I gave it like three seasons before I dropped it.
Hes amazing
But i dont want him back
I like him but not as lex
Bro the riddler
Riddle me this how did that goofy mf get the role of lex
wasn't good
yeah I didn't like his lex
bro showed up as the riddler and was told last second he was supposed to be lex
he probably got lex bc he played zuckerberg
