New trailer for Thor: Love & Thunder:

Russell Crowe as Zeus seems like it's going to be a riot.

I love Taika Waititi

Better Call Saul continues to be better than Breaking Bad.

Questlove's The Summer of Soul is not without faults as a documentary but the source material is superb.

Better Call Saul continues to be better than Breaking Bad.

It was an excellent episode. People complained about the "boring" episodes in recent weeks, but I thought they were anything but, in a slow burn kind of way.

And Howard is easily one of the most tragic characters of both series.

Possibly my favourite film last year.

A company I work for is shooting a new El Zorro show for Amazon and I just realized it's probably not the best of times for the white "Z" symbol

Better Call Saul continues to be better than Breaking Bad.

I just love the way that BCS manipulates the viewer into rooting for Saul and Kim over Howard.

Howard is clearly a sympathetic character, maybe a bit sleazy (especially with wanting to use the old woman in the wheelchair as a prop), but is a good dude who is poised against the protagonists. In any objective sense, Saul and Kim are the villains, but we see them more and get to follow their struggles much more intimately, so are naturally inclined to cheer for them even when they are up to no good. It's incredibly well-done.

Not to mention that their cons are usually funny - until they suddenly aren't.

Little detail I loved in last episode (no spoiler really): when the new guy drops the soda cans, Howard shows him how to avoid them exploding. He adds that it's something that he learned from Chuck - and that it was a habit at Chuck's. And as a viewer you immediately connect the dots: almost guaranteed that Jimmy used to shake Chuck's soda cans all the time to the point that Chuck was so paranoid that he treated every can as if it was about to blow in his face, thus forming a life long habit.

Ah, well.  Dammit, I still love Zorro like I was that little kid again, white Z or not!  Make it pink if it must, but bring it back!

  The Pentaverate

Started out with a passable dog paddle but drowned somewhere along the way, washing up on shore as a bloated corpse. I'm Maria Menounos.

[Admiral Yi]

I saw the trailer for that.  O how the mighty have fallen.

Trailer for the Willow remake/sequel/whatever TV show:

[Gups]

Questlove's The Summer of Soul is not without faults as a documentary but the source material is superb.

The Stevie Wonder drumming at the beginning was particularly great.

[Darth Wagtaros]

I will watch Willow.
