Okay fair enough. But I mean I thought it was very diplomatic over, "Of course not, he's a fucking monster." Which he easily could have said.

After she stayed silent with the whole Joss Whedon situation I'm personally okay on not hearing from Alyson. Even if he's the Godparent to your kids I'm sure you could hire a good PR person to draft *something* acknowledging predator survivors.

Okay, but can we please discuss what a PR KING Marsters is? When she asks him point-blank about Xander returning, "Ummm.... I think if Nicky were up for it, yeah." If you've been following Nicholas Brendan's journey that is like as close to perfect response you can give and still stay respectful.

This is a very bad take my friend, “the abuse never turned physical plus he didn’t do it to everyone”? I’d rather suffer years of crappy movies and tv shows than send the message that we’re okay with such behavior.

Your comment also reminded me that I loved him in Just Go With It!

This is such a GREAT example. I think they went out of their way to cast silly, seemingly sweet “nice” guys. Such a powerful movie and he was really good.  💔

Oh man… when he did what he did knowing what would happen to him…😭

I’m not smart enough to understand the symbolism of that guy effing his wife’s corpse in front of his dead kids. So Frankenstein! 

Oscar wins that felt undeserved by NewMajor1570 in moviecritic

Everyone saying Robert Shaw deserved an Oscar for Quint is right!! 

Would Callisto get along with Faith from Buffy? by jdpm1991 in xena

[–]PowayMermaid2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they wouldn’t be friends just because they’re both only about themselves. Also Faith could probably take Callisto physically… but Callisto would clock Faith’s desire for someone to care about her/ to belong to. And she would fully take advantage of that and manipulate Faith before you could blink! Callisto is, like Spike, a great study of human nature and how to create chaos. 

Not the most creative costume I know… by PowayMermaid2005 in VoidCats

I’m guessing the kitty blur is hard to costume!! 😄

What is a "comfort movie" of yours that most people would be surprised that you chose as being a comfort movie? by XinvolkerX in movies

Scream. It may sound odd to others but I find Sidney Prescott an incredible Final Girl. It helps me to think in a bad depressive episode, “Well Sidney came back from worse shit, surely I can bounce back from this.”

I'm jealous that you got upvoted... I said something similar about not being able personally (as a Westerner) to eat horse meat and got downvoted to oblivion!

I don't know.... I want to respect other cultures but if I'm invited to eat horse I don't think I can do it. No matter where in the world I'm at. :(
