The “Get Back” scene reminded me of the scene in the Sound City documentary where Paul starts fooling around on this weird 4-string electric slide guitar thing, and comes up with a riff, and then Grohl starts playing along and so does Novoselic, and very quickly Paul comes up with the verse to “Cut Me Some Slack,”

The other members of the band don’t even seem to notice her; of all the random annoyances they deal with she seems like the very least of their concerns. Personally I’m already sick of hearing it from the guy who wants them to play the concert in Libya and it doesn’t even affect me, he’s gotta be way higher up the

It’s also a little weird that people are all like “god, how annoying that she was sitting there while they were trying to work,” and meanwhile there are constantly people everywhere, and the band spends a lot of time dicking around and having afternoon drinks. But yes, things obviously would have done much better if

You’re the first I’ve seen still saying Yoko broke them up after watching this. Everyone else I’ve seen says what the review says: it’s a myth debunked by this.

I think it was less that Yoko was a clinger and more that John wanted her there right next to him every second. She could have been sitting next to the Hare Krishna in the corner if John didn’t make a place for her right next to him.

If Paul quietly noodling “Let It Be” in the background of another conversation appeared in a fiction movie I would say it was contrived, which is the fun of archival footage. I really couldn’t believe what was happening.

Oh man, now I gotta watch Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. It’s been way too long.

The first season was crap, the second season was all over the place and wasted Lucy Lawless, and the fifth season was a massive regression in quality. Season 3 was fun but the series peaked with the fourth, and the writers never seemed to grasp how much of an arsehole Fitz was.

Yeah, except for AOS being a little too high and Legion a little too low, that’s a solid ranking.

Youtube Vanced is the way to go if you want to watch videos on mobile. I genuinely don’t remember the last time I saw an ad while watching a youtube video, be it on my phone or my pc.

the bit about not talking to Dunst on set is misleading- in the NYTimes article Dunst talks about how they went to dinner together every week and how wonderfully nice he was. It was ONLY on set that he didn’t talk to her because only on set was he fully in character at all times.

The anti-Pratt thing was fun for a while, but now it’s mostly unadulterated assholery.

Sorry, that makes no sense to me and I've worked on sets with strict covid precautions. Do you have a source?

It’s George Bluth’s “it was just light treason!” defense all over again.

So they suggest that the crew who walked out over safety concerns deliberately put someone’s life in mortal danger to express “We’re disgruntled”? That’s pretty dark even for these ambulance chasing sorts.

I don’t buy this story for a second, but even if I did, “My client isn’t negligent, she just left real guns unattended for two hours and didn’t check them before they were used” may not be slam dunk defence the lawyers think.

On the subject of Final Girls, this was a great take on that trope, such a shame it didn’t get a sequel to date.

Shuuuuuuut the fuck up. Men of all faiths have killed their wives when they find out she’s having an affair. It’s called being a piece of shit, especially since they were “in the process of ending the marriage” anyway.

I’m sure someone else mentioned this, but the best Parks and Recreation Halloween episode is “Greg Pikitis.” A perfect, hilarious, endearing mystery where everybody wins. I love it. 

There’s barely a handful paragraphs in this article, ostensibly about the Brittany Murphy documentary, that don’t frame everything about her life in terms of Britney Spears. What a way to defend her humanity.
