The Comeback is one of the most brilliant and clever shows ever and does not get its due. So ahead of its time, and the commentary on how aging actresses are treated in hollywood omg. It deserves to be part of the conversation of fantastic shows

 

Also this episode where Frasier says his expensive pretentious door knocker will lead to world peace is the sort of out of touch delusion that makes this show great.

 

The Comeback > Peak Arrested Development

(Only comparing since they were cult shows canceled too soon, not that they’re super similar otherwise)

 

I also think the comeback is one of the few revived shows where the new episodes didn't suck. The series finale is so beautiful I wanna cry just thinking about it!! Ugh it's soooo good.

 

Wait so are Sophie Turner and Priyanka Chopra sisters now?

 

extremely in

 

Omg

 

Why is it always a white guy who comes up with something like that?

 

Folks, there's a trailer...

 

Imagine making that and still not being the worst J. Saville.

 

Oh no

 

How was no one in the room at any point to say that's a bad idea?

 

Hell yeah. Just listened to a podcast recently about lobotomy. Very in.

 

I just saw that Mel Gibson is remaking The Wild Bunch and I want to scream.

 

Give the the guy a break already

fuck him forever and hope he dies

 

The Wild Bunch has one of the best endings in history. Such an audacious shootout, especially for the time.

 

Definitely. Remaking it now is totally unnecessary anyway, but with Mel Gibson in charge it’s another level of terrible.

 

I’m not a fan of the site at all but this feels like it’s a step in the right direction:

Rotten Tomatoes Revamps Movie Audience Scores to Focus on Verified Ticket Buyers

 

Sounds like a good move. I've never paid much attention to the audience score, though.

 

Me neither. The only time I ever pay any attention to it at all is when there’s a particular controversy. I love the site for how it aggregates and links to every review. It’s been one of my go to sites for years, especially since they added the functionality for looking up showtimes and buying tickets.

 

Exactly, it's a good aggregate for critic reviews. I'm always interested in the general consensus of reviews for a new movie. It's also good for checking what's in theaters currently, what's releasing this week, or what's coming out in the coming weeks.
