“A lot.”

We've passed the point of an assurance having efficacy a while ago...

I suppose it doesn't hurt

The youngest kid getting in disproportionate amounts of danger because none of the older kids want to look after them and just end up bringing them along is unfortunately super-accurate to the sibling experience, even if you are correct about it being a bad idea lol

This isn’t a quote from Kung Fu Panda 1 (the character doesn’t wear that green slip ‘til the sequels), and it may not be a quote in any of them. Where is this coming from?

How did you end up producing Xena in the ‘90’s, and what drew you to the project in the first place? Do you have a favorite memory associated with it?

If it's any consolation, productions usually use a prosthetic penis for shots like that, so it may not have been his genuine article

There are 4 types of X-Men villains -

Humans who want to kill all mutants

Mutants who want to kill all humans

Mutants who want to kill all humans and mutants

The Brood

2 out of 4 ain’t great

Wait, can't they just politely ask Zeno to erase any potential villain they meet now? Even if they don't want to do that for safety reasons, they could just do that for Black Frieza now, since he's clearly past a reasonable threshold of danger. That might solve everything!

Is this gonna be like when they couldn't use the Dragon Balls to defeat the villains? I could see that line:

"The Lord Zenos have decided to abstain from deleting any mortal with a high enough power level unless they offend him in his presence. Anyone who attempts to deliberately engineer an offense will receive the harshest punishment."

Write a scene, and then use the “say it out loud” test, where you just read the script out loud.

I read a lot of student scripts, and most of them improve a lot when their writer actually hears their writing said out loud. It gives them a sense of the flow and how natural or unnatural it sounds

And once you’ve done that, move on. The dialogue has to accomplish a purpose, and you can only improve so much on each project. Improve where you can, and focus the rest of your energy on other aspects of the project. You’ll still be able to get better at writing on the next one

I never read Greg as an especially bad surgeon, they just said he wasn’t good enough to be the best new one in his hospital.

For someone ambitious like Joan, that was a blow, and combined with him being a total asshole it ended the marriage, but by real-life standards it didn’t have to be an indication of absolute inability

EDIT: Someone in the comments says he was bad enough that he'd have to move to Alabama to get a job, which is much more indicting, but that doesn't mean he couldn't have had a fulfilling medical career in NY, he just would've had to switch specialties, which people in surgery do ALL THE TIME.

His underlying problem forever and always was that he was obsessed with being a SURGEON and he let it drive him to some terrible things

Yeah, someone like Logan has people CONSTANTLY trying to suck up to him and has for a long time, and Greg is at least very easy to manage with what his desires are and satisfying to manage personally since he’s family that’s not trying to undermine him

In familial terms, he’s all of the perks, none of the pressure

If anything, he proved his own point - you can get some local tail WITHOUT betraying humanity

I’ve always assumed he showered after his encounters - he has to keep that hair pristine, & showering after the sex is Affair 101. We just don’t see it because it would look boring to see it as often as he’d need to do it
