this is why Avery Brooks is so good in Deep Space 9.

actually avery brooks is so good in ds9 because he is the only begotten son of god and he cooks jambalaya for our sins and he will count to 4 after three days in the neutral zone

everyone always talks about avery brooks doing ham, but he gives a ton of incredibly sober and rational performances as sisko throughout the series. also his relationship w/ jake never feels over the top or cheesy. hes really good and sisko is definitely my fav captain.

yeah. sisko is a good dad and while i'll talk a bunch of silliness about him slaying demons with a fiery sword of justice, my love for him is mostly due to his very human reactions and relationships. most saliently, his relationships with jake, dax, cassidy yates, etc. he's the only captain that feels like a person imo

sisko is the best tv dad. it's not often you see a tv dad be physically and emotionally affectionate with their kids, especiall not older kids.

I love DS9, Avery Brooks is perfect for the part, and the hamming it up could be seen as in character, that it's actually Sisko Kirking it up rather than Avery Brooks acting Shatnerian.

i've only saw 2 of his movies. I actually kinda liked Midnight in Paris. it does a somewhat reasonable job of mocking "ah things were better back in the golden age of ___!" nostalgia lustfulness of a time-long-past with acceptance of the present; and also no pedo-creepiness to it. genuinely is a pretty solid romancey movie. but you do have to like Owen Wilson... being.. owen wilson.

however the second movie I did see sucked big time, Magic in the Moonlight, and that poo poo is pure creepy. some 70 year old falling in love with an magic pixie dream girl 18 year old poo poo. woody allen is worthless

the majority of his movies seem to have a pretty major arc of some old neurotic white dude banging hot young women :chloe:

I always got the impression Woody Allen was one of those directors only film critics and other directors like, and that his films are painfully mediocre but he somehow continues to be allowed to make them because it's been decided he's an auteur and thus above critism :shrug:

it doesn't really matter why you do, what's important is you refer to woody allen heads as "stanleys" and tell them you assume they must be big marble movie fans too

this explains why my incredibly smug and mediocre roommate, who was in a film program freshman year in college, so enjoyed allen (regardless of the film) and other particularly director-loved directors

that dude was the bane of his peers, so in a way i feel my digs are justifiable

midnight in paris is the most I've enjoyed a woody allen movie but it is also by far the least woody allenney movie he's made.

annie hall is pretty good. a few really good scenes in that movie.

i can’t stand wes anderson, it’s like ‘quirky affectation - the movie’. all his characters try to construct a personality around some dumb teenage fashion choice or idiotic habit

wes anderson movies are basically 80s cartoons with real actors and incredibly twee art direction, every character has one weird quirk that defines their entire personality
