Not just that but describing her as a 'whore' was incredibly misogynistic. The dismissal of Harley as just eye candy ignores the episode "Mad Love" where Batman tells Joker that Harley came closer to killing him than the joker ever did.

Exactly. Myers in the original had a normal family background but he just snaps one night and murders his sister. That's far scarier than the back story Zombie gives him in the remake. The idea that a killer's persona could be lurking beneath the guise of a seemingly ordinary kid is waaay...

This idea that people had unreasonable expectations about the show keeps getting brought up to refute criticism. But the complaints that I've seen (and share myself) have nothing to do with the lack of big name superheroes but rather with how poorly written the show is coupled with the flat &...

Bob has used "Zulu" as a reference to racism before in his Warm Bodies review so it looks like he's still persisting in his ignorant reading of that film. I'm not sure how someone who claims to be a movie critic could look at a film like "Zulu" and claim it promotes an imperialistic or racist...

After seeing Black Dynamite I had the exact same thought - Michael Jai White would make a great Luke Cage. Pair him up with someone like Luke Goss (Blade 2, Hellboy 2) and you've got your 'Heroes for hire'. There have been too many denials coming from the show creators for me to believe that...

Republic Commando is crying out for a sequel with co-op. Players could take the role of the different troopers in Delta Squad each with specific abilities/gear. It could have been something like a "Rainbow 6" game set in the SW universe. I was surprised that XW vs TF never got a remake/sequel...

Totally agree. Bob's use of the film "Zulu" as a reference to racism is a really lazy, shallow reading of the film.It smacks of someone who took a look at the dvd cover and just assumed because it was made back in the 60s it must naturally be racist propaganda. There is racism & classism in the...

For me Spider-man 3 is still the worst third film of a trilogy because it was preceeded by two really good films (and as Dan says arguably the second film was even better than the first).But with the Pirates & Matrix films the trilogies had already started to come off the rails in the 2nd films...

Yeah, I was disappointed that Bob felt the need to invent this strawman of an imagined Red Tails backlash just so he could go on a rant about anti-Lucas fanboys. If Red Tails had been directed by Lucas himself then maybe,maybe I could see the scenario that Bob depicts happening. But Bob's...

Obvious/over-used macguffin? Really?

It was enjoyable to see Yahtzee answering questions in his 'normal' persona. I'd rather have that than him trying to emulate a 'ZP' standup show. For future talks where there's no audience mic it'd be helpful if Yahtzee repeated the questions.
