“…she worked on a kibbutz and eventually joined Zionist paramilitary organization Haganah, where she was trained as a scout and a sniper. After sustaining a serious injury in the 1947-1949 Palestine war, Westheimer left what was, by then, the State Of Israel…”

Commenting is free on Jez now, and they still haven’t returned lol.

The Matrix, as well. Prime late-90s rock and techno - they got the damn Propellerheads “Spybreak! (Short One)” for the iconic hallway shootout, and Rob D’s “Clubbed to Death (Kurayamino Remix)” for the woman in red sequence, plus RATM’s “Wake Up” and Rob Zombie’s “Dragula”. 

Awww, belated/upcoming happy 50th birthday!

The Wallflowers’ cover of Heroes is certainly essential.

The prequel trilogy is as despised as it always was by the people that despised it. The difference is that the opinions of 8 year olds who loved the movie at the time didn’t count and now they’re in their 30s and are counted as part of the conversation. I would guess the number of adults who saw it in theaters and…

You can’t fool me, AV Club, that’s just two pictures of Armie Hammer

Dude, even those BMW ads- er, short films were killer. Clive Owen...The Driver.
