People from Ireland do tend to crop up in odd places , but yeah he’ll probably be American .

Gleeson has done it before but I have to think it would be a pretty serious challenge for Impacciatore.

I like it! The symbol looks great, the trunks are back. Everything looks good. It does look like he’s already been in battle from the scorch marks. I’m picturing him just now getting home and some alien starts attacking the city and he’s like, okay, fine, back to work I guess.

He made a career observing the minutiae of the 80s and early 90s, and now that his fussy, inoffensive schtick is old hat, he blames PC culture. It’s actually funny.

I dunno, this movie is 96 minutes long, all the reviews say it has a decent number of laughs in it...if SNL makes me really laugh three or four times in an episode, it was a good episode, so I’ll probably see this.  It doesn’t have a lot of competition for comedies worth seeing right now, in film anyway (can’t wait…

I’ll note again that Blackberry is easily the best of these product biopic movies, simply for having the guts to not just end at the high point of the product’s success but instead go all the way to the point where it irreparably ended. The final visual metaphor for the company hitting rock bottom, which has been…

Never thought I’d wish for some celebrity deaths, but if nothing else they could spare us from pointless nonsense like this.

It wasn’t that it was A joke about the NYP (which is itself a joke) but that it was a GOOD joke about NYP. 

I just watched it, it wasn’t bad at all, some pretty good lines actually.

Ok, but “The New York Post is like getting a summary of the New York Times read by a crackhead” legitimately made me laugh out loud. And leaving Michael Che out of the act in order to “Stand in solidarity with President Biden in also losing all his Black support” was a pretty trenchant observation. 

Did CB get to talk? I didn’t stick around to find out.

True story. One December in the ‘90s, I was at the mall, shopping for a pair of shoes to go with the dress I’d picked out to wear to the company Xmas party that night. A lady came rushing over with a toddler, frantic. The kid had stopped breathing and she was hitting the kid on the back. I said “no, you do the…

Is that why Kissinger died? He was no longer in a position to do enough evil things to top up his tank?

Apparently!

I occasionally think about why it seems like horrible evil powerful monsters always live to be a ripe old age. It might be a bit of selection bias: it takes a while to get to the point where you have the power to be a monster, and then it takes a while longer for your monstrous actions to add up to massive evil and…

More wonderful news for today: SCOTUS is waffling on striking down the POTUS immunity nonsense.

Jimmy Fallon could be replaced by just about anyone else who has been on the show at any point this century. He deserves all the hate. All of it. And fire. 

Totally agree.  

Kenan always makes me laugh.  I especially enjoy his game show host characters.

Thompson certainly has his own style. To me, his frequent ‘woodeness’ is almost a form of protest, a sort of resignation to the situation he’s in because his talent is being tragically wasted: “Here I am. The token Black guy and I’m going to do this Lorne.” I find it hilarious.
