IT'S PEACH COBBLERIN' TIME!

Sage advice.

On the other hand, who else is going refine all the best themes, ideas, expressions, tropes out of Wes Anderson, leaving behind the dross to come up with something greater, purer and less annoying? Because I'll tell you who won't be doing that. Fucking Wes Anderson, that's who.

The exact same thing happened to Susan B. Anthony.

He should have tried to drive casual.

Dead of Night? Unless there's some kind of bullshit 1 Max of British films or 0 Max of incredibly obvious picks.

Sorry, I'm already assigned to Clu Gulager Alert.

If it actively hurts non-fan enjoyment, by having people act in such a manner that's only understandable if you know the references then sure. Although there's plenty of shows that do that to characters without the rationale of expecting the audience to know source background.

And yet many people point to episodes of South Park as justification for them acting like assholes. It's almost as if assholishness isn't some kind of clear ontological category.

It only matters to the extent that people will use South Park as proving some point or other and Parker and Stone as the deep thinkers that the world needs when the target of the week is something they too hate.

You know what? I'm beginning to suspect that Trey Parker and Matt Stone don't really have a coherent ethical philosophy. As cultural snipers go, they're more Charles Whitman than Simo Häyhä.
