An example of two white guys who famously punched down on the queer community teaming up to do a "both sides" argument? Is THAT the example?

Resident Evil movie was good! As with so many movies these days I wish I'd gone in without seeing the trailer first, but still an entertaining time.

Books are over. Mail order books are now very, very good. You just don't know yet. [INSERT NAME HERE] meets Santa has solved infinite personalised books.
A page from one of those mail order Xmas books where you tell them your kid's name and age etc. and they put the same details in a book about meeting Santa.

Bill & Ted style movie in which bigots travel through time questioning historical figures about large gametes but they fuck up the timeline so badly they disappear into the void ushering in a new age of peace where they never existed.

I still remember seeing this opening week in Manchester and some of the audience booing at the end (weird for a UK crowd!). I had devoured all the viral marketing beforehand so I quietly enjoyed it. Is it a better movie with all that buildup, do you think?

We can never invent time travel because Robert Eggers will hijack the machine and use it to beam himself through the ages, picking up historical figures as he goes and finally to the 1980s to make a 100% authentic Bill & Ted sequel

- The Doctor is forced to merge with the TARDIS and subsequently can move through time just by thinking about it - The Doctor has sex with at least one companion per season, just like Reacher - K-9 is in every episode, and when he's not on screen everyone should be asking "where's K-9?"
