But seriously, melon mixed with feta, mint leaves and seasoned with chili is really nice.

Yep, you can wait for "12 is not that old, she was basically a woman"-diatribes (even typing that makes me feel sick).

To the surprise of absolutely no one.

I think in Going Postal, which is also the best Pratchett adaptation IMO. It also has the perfect Vetinari in Charles Dance.

It still comes down to Hammond not paying Nedry enough although he claimed he "spared no expenses".

Dean Cain and Kevin Sorbo - two people who would get their asses kicked by the characters they played.

Yeah, he's in there for sure. Probably several times.

Which was very likely inspired by scientific accounts of the physical effects of radiation that Lovecraft had read.

Well, first of all, apparently this Superman, while still being the strongest hero, is pretty nerfed compared to his comic version.

Secondly, you have the same problem with the MCU. Why didn’t the Eternals intervene against Thanos? Why wasn't Captain Marvel called when Loki attacked New York with a Chitauri army? Why did Hawkeye and Black Widow not immediately get Iron Man armours when joining the Avengers? And so on. The answer is of course, it's a comic book movie. Don't overthink it.

Agreed, but I would say the quote from The Dark Knight is more about public perception than actual character. And Rowling definitely self-inserted with Hermione and I think readers also perceived her as such before Rowling destroyed her reputation.

 
 
 

(Besides the movie being hilariously bad.) Halle Berry's face is massively deaged through the entire movie for no apparent reason. What's up with that?
