The reference to  John Dickson Carr gives me greater respect for him as an aficionado of classic mysteries 

I love that this article is all pearl clutching over the idea of this lawsuit but it seems pretty legitimate:

To call Tillman’s outfit a cult diminishes it in one important sense. The whole “constitutional sheriff” act is an all too real phenomenon in the US and is a source of serious local corruption, even tyranny in more rural parts of the country, and is deeply connected with white nationalist and “patriot movement”…

Ed Gein considered “lampshading” to be something different.

I think speedrunners savor more than anyone, we see the speedrun but not all the times they went through the puzzle or game to be able to speedrun it.

Does what exactly? The Watchmen show was better than anything Moore ever wrote. Moore is a curmudgeonly old bastard, and I can’t blame him when it comes to the many horrible adaptations of his work made it to film, but the HBO Watchmen isn’t one of them. The writers room for Watchmen was predominantly Black writers…

L to the OG, what a fucking show, what an ending. Easily one of the best pieces of television ever made. I can’t wait to revisit it, with the ending in mind, and see how it all pulls together. 

Hey, honest question.

Just a reminder that the creator of FNAF is a MAGA CHUD and supporting this movie further lines his coffers to continue making donations to facists.

No, it’s not.

Agree. When Gothic narratives set sail you know things will get interesting. When we read about Mr. Rochester and Bertha’s voyage in Jane Eyre - so tantalizingly brief - the imagination is really unloosed.
As it was for Jean Rhys, who wrote Wide Sargasso Sea!

The last contemporary Tarantino movie was Death Proof in 2007. For the Coens it was Burn After Reading in 2008. For Paul Thomas Anderson it was Punch-Drunk Love in 2002. For Wes Anderson it was The Darjeeling Limited in 2007. For Steven Spielberg it was War of the Worlds in 2005. For Guillermo del Toro it was Hellboy…

Hey, but at least we got a slideshow ranking all of the Looney Tunes characters for some goddamn reason.

No, my friend, it really isn’t. 

I have a solution that will work out for everyone: Have a scene where Kevin Costner’s character accidentally super-glues a Halloween mask on his face, and just film a body-double wearing that mask for the rest of the season.

Fuck the haters, I’m a millennial of a certain age and I am here for this shit.

He’s Greg’s grandfather.

I think Nan’s an interesting foil to Logan. She offers the nurture he doesn’t, but she has created an equally toxic codependent relationship with her heirs. Different types of emotional manipulation with the same result, a bunch of children who struggle with being competent adults and have to keep crawling back to…

The biggest snub of the night? Racacoonie. Unbelievable.
