I like Scott Pilgrim, except for Michael Cera. And I’m definitely #TeamKnives.

I love Random Roles, but there are times when it’s glaringly obvious that an actor is only doing it because it’s a chore for their interminable press junket. This is one of those, sadly for us and for Gwen. SJP’s responses were about as deep and entertaining as a sidewalk puddle.
Or “disruptor.”
Same. The film basically peaked at their ship’s first flight, with the Jerry Goldsmith music at peak soul-stirring - and then it fell flat on its face for the remainder of the runtime. But I could watch the hell out of the whole thing right up until that moment over and over.
Because space travel - all of space discovery, really - is a triumph of mind and science, and there are extremely few visceral thrills. The space program caught the public’s rapt attention first when it was a Cold War proxy for an actual war between the US and the USSR. Then, it was a race to see who would land on the…
I watched Cliffhanger years ago and I came out of the theater on the cusp of soiling myself, it scared me so much. Free soloing? Just the idea of watching it on a screen any bigger than my smartwatch gives me the heebie-jeebies.
COME ON - no inclusion of Les Freres Heureux? “The Innkeepers” is second only to “Ham Radio” in terms of best pure farce in the catalogue.
Oh, man, the original Twilight Zone had some absolute howlers.
It’s “pumping the brakes,” not “pumping the breaks.” Good lord.
None of this is new, though. Cast members breaking and surprise cameos have been a feature of SNL since its origins.
He is legitimately amazing in the first Kung Fu Panda movie.
Rian basically lived out the dreams of many frustrated Star Wars fans after The Force Awakens and blew J.J.’s cutie-pie dance-arounds to shreds. Resistance? Nope - Rebels! They’ve always been Rebels. Snoke? A mysterious shadowy emperor right out of Palpatine’s playbook - well, guess what, bitches, HE GONE, and Kylo’s…
What about “We came in peace for all mankind” does Fox not understand?
That episode should have been the series finale of NewsRadio. That is, in fact, the last episode I watch in my periodic DVD binges.
Pleasantville has aged extremely poorly, IMO. While I am an enormous fan of Jeff Daniels’, Joan Allen’s, and William H. Macy’s work in it, the farther we get away from it, the more ham-handed the execution of its message seems to feel.
For me, the movie was kind of a “monkeys on typewriters” situation. Nothing Jared and Jerusha Hess have done before or since the Napoleon Dynamite movie has captured anything more than my morbid curiosity. But something - maybe it’s the John Swihart score, maybe it’s the grating authenticity of the setting (I have a…
I never got into D&D that much, because my social circle preferred Top Secret. I did play a lot of Star Trek: RPG and Robotech: RPG, though.
I would subscribe to CBS All Access in order to see Colbert and Manganiello playing D&D for a couple of hours.
