Someone in the comments asks, “Have you not watched The Big Bang Theory. Sheldon says that it does.”

And that is all the argument I need to accept that the transporter is not a kill-and-copy machine. The Big Bang Theory is trash that hates nerds and Sheldon sucks as a character.

I haven’t seen it in forever, remember Bill Nighy being the best thing about it, and only think fondly of it because Thomas Brodie-Sangster and the girl he had a crush on went on to be Ferb Fletcher and Vanessa Doofenschmirtz, who I also ship.

It's amazing how the post-Crisis depiction of Clark/Kal-El/Superman being a matter of code-switching is almost as old as the pre-Crisis depiction of Clark being a disguise, and yet it feels like a lot of people still buy into Tarantino's "Kill Bill" monologue.

I do wish we got more than a blink-and-you'll-miss-it shot of Jason Momoa as the Main Man, though. I have never been a huge fan of Lobo - he was supposed to be a parody of '90s grimdark but, as ever, fans didn't see the joke and embraced him for all the wrong reasons.

Excellent double feature. Would highly recommend both movies. 5/5

The endings for both are dark, but DeVito’s film gives us that moment where Dan Castelenetta chooses to try to patch things up with his wife, while Jay Roach gives us a glimpse of hope and the literally blows it the fuck up, so it sticks that knife in and doesn’t give any comfort. 4/

Both are excellent movies in their own ways. I loved seeing the ways that overlapped and differed - Ivy having Barbara’s talent cooking, but in most other ways being Oliver, save for Theo having Oliver’s fear of fat kids. 3/

Theo wins out between the two of them because he doesn’t feed Ivy’s dog to her (and for all intents and purposes, Barbara did do that to Oliver, DeVito including a shot of the dog alive and well was almost cowardly given how dark the movie was). 2/
