Oh yeah I really like all those movies! The thing about dudebro taste, like a lot of young taste, is it's limited in scope. Those are all good movies that happen to be stuffed with the kind of thing that appeals to young macho dudes — violence, guys acting like "badasses," transgressive acts, anti-authoritarian…

Oh yeah that's a biggie. Just forgot that one for the list. Probably because it's awful.

It both was and wasn't. I think critics thought it had the potential to be the next indie crossover success, an arty genre film with enough style and thrills to become a breakout hit along the lines of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, say. It definitely didn't become anything near that.

Well, Mr. Will Harris himself liked my comment, guys. Read into that as you will.

So, is Treat Williams the crying actor who gave up his movie career?

Don't know about True Detective, but Fuller has explicitly stated that his goal in developing the show was to ask "What would David Lynch do with a Hannibal Lecter character?"

The Kanye interview was great. Imagine almost any other late night host getting that good an interview out of him. That really impressed me more than anything.

Yeah, this was weird. So far my take away of Meyers' show is that he's the anti-Fallon — strong in interviewing and at monologues (Fallon's clear weaknesses), but less outwardly warm and likable, and so far with less memorable comedy bits (but hey, it's only been a week).

Even then, they didn't shoot him saying "fuck" and added it in post (his mouth doesn't even move). They also cut about 20 minutes out of the movie, including the entire pre-credits action sequence that featured heavily in the trailers.

True. Not illegal, she just needed parental approval as a minor, and got it.

But isn't the question what's your least favorite, not least deserving? I mean, I like Fargo much better, but The English Patient is still a good film. There are at least twenty other best picture winners that are far worse.

The Quiet American and Gods & Monsters are good!

Bingo.

Hahaha. Yes it is.

That's how I feel about a lot of the winners. They're rarely hateable, they're just usually the "wrong" choice. King's Speech is fine, worth seeing even, just not anywhere near the best movie of 2010. Even The Artist, which I thought was mostly an empty gimmick, was fun enough to watch that it's hard to hate.

For me it's TITANIC. I'll never get over the disappointment of seeing that for the first (and only) time, expecting a masterpiece, and getting a cringey, embarrassing, ultra cliched soap opera with a few fun boat sinking effects at the end.

Shakespeare in Love sure as hell wasn't the best film of 98, but it's far from the worst best picture winner. Way too much great Tom Stoppard dialogue for that.

True. Also an easy lay for films based around boobs. I remember after his positive review of Tomb Raider came out, someone on the 'net commented that that was to be expected from "life long titty fan Roger Ebert." That particular turn of phrase has always stuck with me.

I've sort of come around to semi-liking American Beauty again. The photography/score are genuinely great, as are most of the performances. It's just that the script is such a crock. But yeah, I was a junior in high school when it came out and it was a very important for all sensitive teens of the era to love that…

Well, Becca James is the wrongest. Dull, ultra-generic biopic MILK is inferior in every way to TIMES OF HARVEY MILK doc, and WAY inferior to SLUMDOG. MILK isn't even Van Sant's best film of 2008 (PARANOID PARK is). Jai Ho is also a much better song that that dull Wall-E number (and I love Wall-E).
