Halloween is the only holiday for me that hasn’t tarnished with age. Christmas doesn’t feel like it’s for me anymore – it hasn’t since I was about 10.

Tom Hiddleston looks like a big British foot and has the eyes of a serial killer and I therefore can't care about his dumb SKULL ISLAND movie.
He's boring when he's doing gymnastics through a kaleidoscope in HIGH-RISE FULL OF DORKS, he's dumb as a lanky whiny vampire in ONLY DORKS LEFT ALIVE, he's British as that guy with the giant bug costume in THOR: THE DORK WORLD...now he's gonna fight King Kong. Or catch him. Or train him. Or sic him on an island full of skulls. Who cares? Who even CAN care? Not me.

Okay. Deep breath.. Everybody with me?
Okay. Alright.
Fuck Star Trek. Star Trek is fucking dumb.
It's the 50th anniversary of this goddam thing. Fifty years of this. Of starfleets and prime directives and time-travelling franchises that bob and weave in and out of each other and and and...I can't care.
