Terrible. It's just random people being killed in ridiculously convoluted ways for no reason whatsoever. You hope there'll be some kind of twist at the end to explain why they're being killed but nope, it's just a guy on the phone doing it for shits and giggles. They don't even bother to make it interesting. It's just a pointless series of deaths that means nothing to anyone. Oh look, a bunch of people I don't care about die for reasons which aren't explained. Absolutely atrocious crap. EDIT - I know realise this is a different movie called 'Escape Room' that I haven't seen. The other movie called Escape Room (2017) is the pile of shit I was talking about. LOL Yup. Profoundly fuckable. You're not fighting racism, you're simply getting sexually aroused by telling others that they're racist. Just one. But it was epic. Alpha Papa was great, so was A Cock and Bull Story, so was Philomena, so was Tropic Thunder, so was Hamlet 2. But otherwise, a solid thread. Depends what kind of funny we're talking about. Being funny has an obvious reward though -- sex. Since men already want to fuck pretty much all women, there is little benefit in women being funny (though it still occurs of course). The point however is that men are more inclined to compete with each to be funny because... there is a huge reward. I'd actually say the total opposite. Parsons demonstrated that he was the stand-out star. Cuoco's career was built on her looks. They ain't what they used to be. Then again, let's face... how many shows have an Indian star? That guy's gonna struggle. Now the real test. Any of you STILL here? I would suggest you'd probably like it if you bought into the premise (lost in space). That was the thing I always liked about it; the sense of community, of getting home together, of having families and kids, of building a community. Sadly, they never quite achieved any of that, only hinted at it. The two crews merged too quickly, the crew didn't pair up and have kids (only at the very end), there was never any real sense of danger about the journey. Worst of all, there was never any sense that they would actually be travelling for 70 years together. I wish there had been. I would have preferred that the show ended with them still in the Delta quadrant. They were never my favourite characters but they fit well in the overall ensemble. It has some good moments but I find it more comforting than funny. They were very wrong. Firstly, they claimed to want to be a democracy but then instantly fell in line behind Faith. Secondly, they claimed Buffy's plan was dangerous but Faith's plan got kids killed too (so what was the difference?). Ultimately, they had a bad loss and it gave rise to all the resentments about Buffy they'd all built up over the years (plus the principal was still butthurt about her relationship with Spike). I never quite understood what they were trying to say with this episode. I guess it demonstrated that Spike was the only one who had total trust in her but beyond that, I never understood it. How does he like her? They've literally just met. Additionally, if his 'touching behaviour' as you call it, is based on physical attraction then isn't that significantly more sexist? He isn't helping her escape because he's a good guy, but because he wants a reward. As I've said earlier in this thread, if the scene isn't specifically designed as an antidote to the 'man saves woman by pulling her away' trope then name another (pre 2005) action film that has a similar scene. Yes, it is quite marvellous. Point to a similar (I don't need you to hold my hand) scene from an equivalent '70s or '80s (even '90s) action/adventure film (where this trope is regularly seen) and I will happily believe you. I look forward to seeing the list you present. Can you give me the phone number of the other 99.9% so I can check with them? Also, my delicate political sensibilities appear to have... massively triggered you. Is that a form of irony? I'll ask the 99.9% when I speak to them. Agreed.
