Well, now I feel like an idiot. I’ve always assumed that was just an expression!

Corporate be like “mandatory return to office aircraft hangar.”

“Yeah but what if someone wants to store their files in Onedrive?”

“Well, Bobby. We ask them politely but firmly to leave.”

They aren’t debating the definition of the word. They’re pointing out that Sony did not create the character. Marvel did. Specifically Stan Lee and Steve Ditko.

1. I didn’t “pick” the one with the highest rating and I don’t appreciate you implying that I am somehow being disingenuous. I just use Rotten Tomatoes. But, since you want to compare scores, I’ll just say Metacritic’s 58 critic score is based on 23 reviews while Rotten Tomatoes is based on 51 critics.

Well the first season is certified fresh on RT with a 75% critic score and did quite well with audiences so I’m not sure why you think that.

The Mummy at 25

Dangit… This makes me feel so old right now. Call me Imhotep because I’m downright ancient. 🤦‍♂️

Rugrats was always my favorite by a wide margin but I was also a big fan of Rocko’s Modern Life, Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Hey Arnold!, and The Angry Beavers as a kid. To be honest though I watched and enjoyed pretty much everything that aired on Nickelodeon in the ‘90s.

Change '90s to the '80s and you might have a point. Seinfeld debuted in 1989. His stand up career peaked in the mid '80s. Which makes me think you don’t actually know what you’re talking about and are just repeating something you heard from someone else.

Oh yeah, that was god awful. Fuck Crackle for releasing that garbage out into the world. I’m glad that streamer failed for Sony and the only buyers they could find were the publishers of the Chicken Soup for The Soul book series.

The article is about an interview he did on David Ducovny’s upcoming ‘Fail Better’ podcast… Which is specifically about people who’ve experienced high profile failures.

I think Ben Stiller just completely missed the mark with Zoolander 2 and it’s good that he realizes it. It happens, not everything’s gonna land the way you thought it would. But people really need to just stop making sequels to comedies years if not decades after the originals. It rarely ever works because comedy changes over time. Some humor doesn’t age well but more importantly some premises just don’t work well outside of the era they were conceptualized in because they were a reflection of that period. There are some exceptions of course but I’ve been burned too many times by shitty - purposeless sequels.
