Why didn’t Spielberg or Lucas ever get into producing Hellboy movies? He’s just Indiana Jones but from actual Hell. It’s a no brainer.

Much like John Nada, Iranian citizens are fighting against a cadre of bloodthirsty and corrupt monsters. Please keep them in your hearts and thoughts.

Every once in a while I see people debating which of the Ninja Turtles would get duped into the manosphere (usually Donnie) but I reject this premise cuz they all grew up with an emotionally available father who was extremely present in their upbringing and made their education his top priority.

Iran is still in darkness so I’m still drawing posters. My latest one is of Samad, an icon of Iranian comedy akin to the Marx Bros or 3 Stooges created by the legendary Parviz Sayyad in the late 60s.

Iran and the Middle East at large would have turned out infinitely better if Truman had allocated all that money to Kermit the Frog instead of Kermit Roosevelt Jr
production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

The premise of Send Help makes me angry that I didn’t think of it. Such a simple genre twist that’s also really funny. Goddamn.

I do not get the grumbling about Wonder Man, it is a goddamn joy.
Some of the sharpest scripting and best acting in a Marvel series yet.
I was not as big a fan of LOKI and WANDA as many other Marvel-heads, but this one I adore.
