let's recast sherlock holmes as a woman, put a woman at the helm in moby dick,

"Spider-Man" was....ok. I haven't seen 127 Hours* but I heard he's really good, and Pineapple Express was primarily enjoyable because of him, but I decidedly didn't like him in "Rise of the Planet of the Apes." I just don't think I believed him as a scientist, as ridiculous as that sounds, and I think he routinely…

Wow, guy. Wow. Where to start. The Oz books, first of all, are not fairy tales as they're not rooted in any sort of folkloric tradition. More accurately, it belongs in the fantasy genre, and the last time I checked, there's not exactly a dearth of male protagonists in fantasy. Also did he watch any movies beyond the…

But don't you see that this is a missed opportunity on the part of filmmakers to portray sympathetic and genuine heroines that have great source material and are rooted in nostalgia? A male perspective doesn't necessarily make the story or world any richer, and what's the point when its operating on the cliched…

Because that's what the American film industry is really lacking. Male perspective.

Never forget.

He's not so much insisting, and I'm pretty sure he's amenable to my position. It's more of a personality difference in that I'm much more open to doing things the unconventional way, and he likes to have everything neat and orderly and done the way everyone else has done it in the past. We don't clash very often, and…

Yup. We've both got some serious conversations ahead of us. The other thing that's interesting in my case is that he is Sikh (whereas I was raised Catholic), and there is an interesting story in Sikhism about one of their Gurus who specifically says that no woman should have to take her husband's name, and that she…

I'm getting married in about six months, and I don't want to give up my surname. I like it. I like the way it sounds, I'm proud of its history, and most of my friends use it when addressing me instead of my first name, so it feels that much more a part of me. I've raised the issue with my future husband who is having…

Also, she was super high. I may not always like Girls, but I feel like that line was clearly lampshading. It's incredibly self-aware and self-deprecating, so, yeah. Lots of people missing the point on that one.

Gene Kelly's thighs were sculpted by gods, there's no other explanation.

He wants people like us to read it as satire and his 14 year old male viewers to take his jokes seriously.

I guess I'm one of those people who harbor some cognitive dissonance about this tradition. I completely agree with Judd about this custom, which has extended to those absolutely inappropriate purity dedication ceremonies that have started cropping up.

The responses to that comment, though....

Also, Arthouse Gorn cinema is actually starting to make waves in a meaningful way.

...but in fact their lizard brain, where all the real sexual attraction takes place, is attracted to something else that jars with that same sense of equality.

In her book, I think Tina Fey says that this is the episode that she and her writers alternatively referred to as "Goodbye, America!" When they wrote it, it was the last episode of the original 12 that NBC had ordered, and they were uncertain whether they were going to be picked up or not. So, they went balls to the…

I can't pick just one episode. I loved "Tracy Does Conan" and a myriad of others, but one of my favorite moments is "THIS IS HOW I CRY NOW" for its absolute absurdity. I missed most of the rest of this scene because I was too occupied with not Lizzing all over the carpet.

Captain Picard and I applaud your stomp-out.

Oh your comment is so yes.
