Whining From Whedon

So Joss Whedon finally decided to answer the accusations levelled against him. Frankly he should have kept his mouth shut because now he looks like the biggest crybaby in Hollywood. As someone who believes both JL cuts are garbage I'm not taking sides in this debate. However the stances he takes are...

Re: My Personal Favorite Adaptation of A Christmas Carol

My first Xmas Carol was "Mr Magoo's Christmas Carol". As you can guess in this day and age that sounds problematic. Surprisingly it's played mostly straight except for the opening and closing scenes which are not part of the actual story and are typical "nearsighted" jokes. Muppet Christmas Carol wo...

Re: Ghostbusters (2016) Reboot: Does Anyone Actually Remember This?

I'm genuinely puzzled Leslie Jones defends this disaster. Her character is a one note racial stereotype I'd expect to see in Michael Bay's Transformers movies. If Paul Feig believes he wrote a "breakout" character when he wrote Patty I have to seriously question his racial opinions. Also, what was t...

Re: Controversial fandom opinions?

I have no opinion on "Tuvix". He never felt like a real character as more seemed like a plot device.

Re: VOY: What was the deal with Michael Jonas?

So is this all a result of ST:Voyager's poor storytelling? DS9's long term plotlines seem to set up Eddington's turn as a surprise since his presence was seen prior to his defection. Jonas just shows up as some disgruntled Maquis grunt who lost a friend(by this point who hasn't?)and we're supposed t...

VOY: What was the deal with Michael Jonas?

Why would a Maquis member trust a cardassian masquerading as a Bajoran? I never understood it.

Re: AU Question: Justice League 2017 Snyder Cut Reception

I have seen alot of people criticize the whole idea of fans 'forcing' WB to release the Synder Cut. That it opens up the idea of so called toxic fans to demand things they shouldn't like a different cut of a movie or something. Problem is that door has been open already its just rarely used. Superm...

Re: Paramount Taps Noah Hawley to Write and Direct the fourth Kelvin movie

Quick recap of what we know to date regarding why Trek 14 was originally cancelled: Chris Pine was more or less a nobody when first cast to be Kirk. Now he is a megastar and wanted a salary to match it. He backed out of Trek 14 when they refused to up his salary. No Kirk, no film. This was in part ...
