To be fair, American corporations would never allow this to happen because they’re terrified of workers comparing their pay…

It’s a beautiful table, but I admit that I zoomed in so I could judge your game collection…

Honestly, even if it did cost 5x more minute-for-minute, it would have been money well-spent…

Paul Atreidies, for that matter. Though one could argue the Reverend Mother is a monster by choice and Paul is a monster by necessity.
Other monsters-in-contention:
Andrew “Ender” Wiggin.
Baru Cormorant.
Gulliver “Gully” Foyle.
John Gaius, Emperor of the Nine Houses.

My solution for hanging cables in the closet without having to thread them through the bars is shower hooks plus elastic bands.

Emily Burns created a stage adaptation that puts this take up-front by keeping Elizabeth alive and drawing parallels between her and Victor’s child and the monster.
I thought it was a fairly brilliant reframing, while keeping very much to the themes of the original.

Dixon should have been fairly compensated for The Dark Knight Rises, but I am extremely skeptical that his input would have improved the movie…

The CGI was created on a computer with 2 MB of memory and animated by pointing a film camera at a CRT as individual frames were displayed.
It’s basically a technological miracle that they were able to use CGI at all…

“…people whose ancestors fought in the Civil War have a hell of a lot more claim over America than the people who say they don’t belong…”
So, descendants of people that were willing to kill to leave the country have a stronger claim than descendents of people that risked their lives to come here?

One thing I don’t get about LLM-fever is how these people think industries will work once you’ve eliminated all of the “junior” positions? Where will the future “senior” people come from?

I will forever maintain that Larry Hama’s much-maligned “implanted memories” background for Wolverine was actually brilliant. It gave writers a framework that they could use to tell any story about his background, even if they were contradictory, while still maintaining the mystery.
