- Comment on YouTube won't let me watch a video unless I sign in... 15 hours ago:
I’ve just stopped watching. Plenty of other stuff to do. If they don’t want to show me their ads that’s their problem.
- Comment on ‘Freaky Tales’ Trailer – Gory Violence and Music Collide in ’80s Genre Mixtape Anthology 2 days ago:
Not necessarily a bad thing, but there’s always the risk of overexposure/backlash. Doubly so when you start seeing the same actors play five different superheroes.
I also worry about a performer’s well being when they start showing up in just about everything. On top of the performance, they have to do talk shows and press junkets which can be brutal. Take some of that money you are making and spend it on a nice break and vacation for a change.

Oh look, it’s Pedro Pascal again. Dude is showing up in as many shows as Nicole Kidman these days.
- Comment on First Image of Matt Damon as Odysseus in Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' 3 days ago:
Probably the best he has looked in a long time. Beard looks good on him.

Pathetic.
- Comment on State Department Revises Plan to Buy Armored Teslas 1 week ago:
Gotta cut the budget of other departments so we can funnel that money to Tesla.
Grifters gonna grift.
- Comment on Pharrell Williams, Michel Gondry Scrap Their Movie Musical at Universal in Postproduction (EXCLUSIVE) 1 week ago:
Bizarre that they would scrap it so far along into production.
- Comment on Warner Bros. Free Movies Streaming on YouTube 2 weeks ago:
I wonder if WBD is remembering to pay residuals on these films?
- Comment on Films by Steven Spielberg 2 weeks ago:
Just a reminder of what bullshit the modern Oscars are. The man makes a wonderful version of The Color Purple, and doesn’t win a single Oscar for it.
- Comment on Got these two most awful yt reccommendations when watching the 50501 protest livestreams. 2 weeks ago:
You can click on that little ellipsis menu and either choose “not interested” or “block this channel”. It should improve your recommendations.
- Comment on My YouTube homepage after I watch one balatro video 2 weeks ago:
Yep. The algorithm is way too aggressive. Keep in mind you can remove videos from your watch history.
- Comment on The new Hulu Subscriber agreement just dropped - Don't like ads too bad. 2 weeks ago:
I’d say “sounds like a lawsuit”. After all, you can’t advertise something as no ads, and then show ads.
But then I remember who is in charge for the next four years and realize they’ll just get away with it.
- Comment on To whomever invented LED bus advertisements: I despise you. 2 weeks ago:
I’m surprised that’s legal. You’d think it would distract other drivers
- Comment on M3GAN 2.0 | Official Teaser 2 weeks ago:
First one was a fun popcorn flick. Hopefully the sequel will be just as enjoyable. 🤞
- Comment on Top 3 Worst Starfleet Uniforms 2 weeks ago:
I love the maroon uniform era, but I hate the actual maroon uniforms. They look anachronistic, bulky and uncomfortably hot. I would put them on this list before I’d list any of the others.
- Comment on F.C.C. Chair Orders Investigation Into NPR and PBS Sponsorships 3 weeks ago:
For running advertisements, which is against their charter. I’m honestly ok with it. I know it’s just more harassment for PBS and NPR, but advertising creep has been slowly settling in at both networks. It used to just be a quick “This program is brought to you by” but now it’s full on ads from the major sponsor at the beginning and end of each program.
- Comment on Backlash builds: why the architecture world hates The Brutalist 3 weeks ago:
There and a half hours about an architect sounds like dreary Oscar bait.
- Comment on Canon Connections: Star Trek: Section 31 3 weeks ago:
Thank you for doing this. I will probably never watch this show, but the connections list is still interesting.
- Comment on Google's AI is using past tense to describe a sporting event that takes place in 3 days. And it knows who won too. 3 weeks ago:
Or you could use a different search engine.
- Comment on Interview: Alex Kurtzman on Section 31 and the "evolution" of Star Trek 3 weeks ago:
Paramount is getting bought out. It will be interesting to see if the new management has any shakeups planned for the Star Trek franchise.
- Comment on Top 10 Most Streamed Movies in the US in 2024, according to Nielsen 3 weeks ago:
Looks like mostly children’s movies. Kids who watch the same stories over and over again are probably skewing the chart positions.
- Comment on Dr. Seuss Movie 'Oh, the Place You'll Go!' Sets March 2028 Release 3 weeks ago:
I couldn’t tell from the article but I hope this is traditional cell-style animation and not 3D CGI or live action.
- Comment on Is there a better sequel than Terminator 2? 3 weeks ago:
Empire Strikes Back Star Trek II
- Comment on YouTube not loading half the time. 3 weeks ago:
Why does a browser need to update to fix YouTube? Should that be the other way around?
- Comment on Were Sony and Microsoft Truly Worried About The Google Stadia? 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like a lot of Google products.
- Comment on "Section 31" early review round-up 4 weeks ago:
I’m still pissed they killed off Hemmer. And I refuse to watch the dancing/singing episode. 🙄
SNW is successful in spite of itself.

- Comment on The Stars of Star Trek: Section 31 Know Why You're Nervous About the Movie 4 weeks ago:
I think the dark humor is what kills this for me. A “mission impossible” style spy show set in the Star Trek universe would be fine. An empress from the mirror universe who gets her kicks killing and eating people isn’t anything I’m interested in.
- Comment on Star Wars: Ryan Gosling to Star in Shawn Levy's Movie 4 weeks ago:
Ya know there are lots of unknowns in Hollywood looking for work. You don’t have to cast the same action stars in every franchise.

“Avatar” has fans?
