What my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today:
• I’ve been a critic of Disney’s story tropes, but this is stretching a bit to find something to complain about. (Warning: Contains a spoiler for *Wreck-It Ralph* that I can’t believe some critics have thought nothing of ruining.) ‘Wreck-It Ralph’ spins up some controversy
• New Yorkers, so clever… 5th Avenue is Closed to Traffic
• I don’t know who a few of these people are. I guess that makes me a bad pop-culture commentator… 30 Twitter Users Now Have More Than 10 Million Followers
• I’m with IndieWire’s Matt Singer on this: we can truthfully acknowledge the abysmal quality of a movie while also enjoying it, and mere enjoyment does not make a movie “good.” From the Wire: On ‘the Myth’ of So-Bad-It’s-Good
• David Tennant as a robot Jedi Master. You’re welcome. David Tennant To Bring A Little Who To Star Wars: The Clone Wars
• Would you like to see Han Solo die in a new Star Wars film? (Cuz Harrison Ford wants that to happen.) Harrison Ford Might Return As Han Solo − And Die Happy
