Video game giant Electronic Arts to be taken private in historic $55B buyout deal | CBC News

I have some concerns about EA moving forward. Kinda feels like an attempt to continue to hold sway over the male college student demographic that the bro podcasters stirred up.

Gorilla Grodd showed up in the first season of Creature Commandos, albeit in a premonition that seems likely to have been averted... But still, he's for sure in this new DCU world.

I'm surprised you guys didn't make any mention of Brolin's character being named Archer. Feels like another not-so-subtle allusion to weapons. He's the one who characterizes the behavior as weaponization, because he saw the children and Marcus running the same way. Perhaps that's the value of the dream-hallucination of the weapon in the sky. Oh also his son's name is Matthew, not Michael. He says it about a dozen times at the end of the movie.

With respect to the notion of a horror move sequel centered on the villain or monster, that's pretty consistently the case. I feel like every horror sequel I can think of is inspired by the theoretical interest in the monster, rather than the protagonists. Maybe Halloween and Alien offer counterexamples by returning the original protagonist along with the antagonist, but I would guess the overwhelming majority of horror movie sequels are a continuation of the menace at the center. Frankly, this usually has the effect of diminishing the original horror by over-explaining the thing that was scary and mysterious in the first film. Nevertheless, that seems to be the formula.
