They are trolling us all with the typos at this point. 

Hell yeah. Working at a shoe store is the perfect front for a coke dealer.

Imagine you go to prison PRE-9/11 and then you finally get out today.

At the beginning of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, there was a very real concern that mistakes on the part of the US and NATO could lead to escalation and potentially WWIII. At the time, there was a consensus among the more experienced and competent foreign policy experts that the ideal resolution would be giving…

Well, the Secret Service determines the President’s security, not the man himself, so it wasn’t dickish. Most other heads of state aren’t also the head of government, and also in direct control of nuclear weapons. And it’s a state funeral, so I have no idea why using the state car is a problem. It’s not like it’s an…

Well that’s a no brainer. No US president is going to be allowed to ride in an unarmored bus crammed with group of other world leaders. Don’t have to be Secret Service to figure that one out.

Weinstein personally owns the rights, independent of Miramax. I remember looking into this a while ago when I couldn't find the movie anywhere, then I remembered I got the movie a long while ago as part of one of those 8 Dvd's for a penny deals from Columbia House or something lol.

It’s not a Sam Barsanti article (which I purposely avoid), so it improved the odds of it being snark-free

I read the Fletch books after seeing the movie when it initially came out. I was actually somewhat disappointed in them, because I had been spoiled by the singular amalgamation of peak Chevy Chase, Harold Faltermeyer’s best overall score (sorry, Beverly Hills Cop and Top Gun), and made-for-Hollywood script.

This site just gets more and more depressing, lazy, and awkward. These days I think the only thing that brings me back to the AV Club is muscle memory.

“In a new interview with Harold Stern”.. Come on, even if you don’t like him you know his name Howard Stern. The laziness here is astounding.

Criticizing pop culture vs. blaming it for society’s woes are two different things. For instance, blaming a cop TV show for enabling bad cop behavior is not a far argument from blaming violent video games for violence in society.

One of my best friends was an ER doc for 27 years, and all I would say to add to your apt description is that you left off the people with “pain” looking for some “pain meds” to make it “go away.” Also, endless administrative paperwork.

If they depicted these institutions accurately, boredom would be a bigger problem than outrage.

I’m pretty sure corrupt police unions are to blame for that, not a TV show, but since we seem to only try and fix societal issues through media I suppose Dick Wolf should get on it!

Wait till he finds out that the healthcare system bears absolutely no resemblance to “Grey’s Anatomy.”

Sept 2022: John Oliver has run out of things to skewer, or whatever.

I think we all know where Zemo is:

Zoooooooouk

Oh nooooo Jason Mantzoukas
