Dr Strangelove?

Gangs of New York is the last Scorsese I enjoyed, and I actively disliked Shutter Island so much I can safely say I'm checked out on him going forward.  I won't start loving Goodfellas or Taxi Driver or After Hours less, but I'm never going to go see a new movie just because his name's attached any more.

I liked it a lot too.  And as with Shakespeare in Love, I think the backlash is silly.  Oscar wins are farts in the wind, but better minor, maybe flawed but essentially fun movies get recognized, than bloated self-important bullshit.  Movies like Forrest Gump and Dances With Wolves winning make me a little angry, for…

I can only assume that that particular subplot is germane to the sequels, and therefore couldn't be wholly cut.

Does no one else out there have a strange, abiding affection for "Blast From the Past"?

"Maybe Tomorrow"?  I haven't seen the movie, but that has to have been the Canadian in-joke.

I'm with you.  I was really hoping for a Harbaugh Bowl, I fucking hate Eli Manning almost as much as I hate Belichick's Goddamn Fucking Hoodie, and the absolute last thing I wanted was a Giants-Pats rematch.  Extra-especially because I think the Giants will win, goddamn sonofabitch motherfucker scum whore hell crap…

Usually I never have anything to add to these threads.  I've got a toddler and an infant at home, I'm lucky to see a movie in the theatres two or three times a year, and I have to earmark my small allotment of choosing-what-to-watch-on-tv for sports.  So I'm kind of inexplicably excited to be able to say that I…

Oh, CaptainFUN.  Being Canadian I'm usually on board with slagging Canadian culture, but you're being a little silly here.

I like to think that early, adorable Beckinsale (Cold Comfort Farm, Emma, Much Ado) and the Beckinsale from Underworld on are two completely different actresses.

He could crush your head like a nut.

Phil Nugent, you're my kind of man. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go wake up my wife with the poignant tale of Ko-Ko Joe — or maybe the Preacher & the Bear.  Lord, if you can't help me, at least don't help that bear…

Hey!  Leave Ru Paul out of this.

"…is more powerful than a king."  That drove me nuts.  The person responsible for that line does not play chess.

Hide your shame!

You'll get what you get and you won't get upset.
