2:19 is long as hell for a movie, you should only go over 2 hours if you’re about as good as EEAAO

the comic mans films seem to have long runtime but they roll credits 13 mins before the end and have that stupid teaser shot after credits, that doesnt count

they also spend 20 minutes on plot and characters that don't matter but someone in a committee demanded they be included because they're important in three films time

yeah season 1 was alright. there were just too many scenes jerking off the set designers that made what i watched of the second a drag

the lord of the rings was the last series of movies that should have been allowed to be long. nobody else has managed to make a movie over two and a half hours since that couldn't have been cut down to two hours or less without losing anything

TV shows and movies are too drat long. This guy's whole schtick is brutally editing down horror media to its good parts (plus relevant making-of features and occasionally decent jokes), and Stranger Things S1 took 68 minutes. And not a lot of it is great, just mostly plot with a few interesting scenes

(He calls them "kill counts" as a transformative fair use excuse, and while he comes off as a bro he's just a horror nerd who got his poo poo together as an adult & could've been a goon for all we know. I hate the bloatedness of horror movies and would gladly swap them for anthologies almost every time)

it’s very much a throwback to 80s kids adventure/peak spielberg movies so how much do you like e.g. the goonies

Hmm what should we use for our article tagline about a slew of new tv slop from the Disney Star Wars bucket?

Hey how about repurposing an 70s poem by a black artist about how societal change is incompatible with capitalism / consumerism?

rogue one was probably the only good new star war and ewan macgregor is usually fantastic, so i am cautiously optimistic about these things. however, see also: every other new star war/trek

been thinking about watching mando because of pedro pascal but then I remember I can just rewatch the first two seasons of narcos and get my pedro fix that way

ewan might get me to fire up the ol torrent client tho
