Man, I love Derek Jacobi, but once he fell in with that whole Shakespeare conspiracy bunch even the barest mention of his name leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

Elle Kiddo just saw Flash Gordon for the first time and wouldn't not/refused to believe that "the wingy shouting fella" was the same actor that played Augustus. I've always considered young Brian Blessed and trademark Brian Blessed as two wildly different actors.

Hmm…is wondering what the Commentariat thinks of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival about to "translate" Shakespeare into modern English. I already think it's a bunch of horseshit but I'd like to know where the fine gentleman and gentlewomen of The AV Club stand on the issue.

I've always thought that Travolta was a legitimately terrifying individual.

I'd watch that. I don't know why, but I know I would.

It's the literary equivalent of disappearing up one's own asshole.

A porn collage with Idris Elba, be still my heart….Oh, oh, I see. I'll see myself out.

I've always pronounced it "more". So it was a little jarring to hear them in the movie say "mort"

Yeah, but Trump is so dumb he'll probably just call it "that song from the monkey movie."

Nugetry. It's a movement.

My sincerely held beliefs do not allow me to consider Willie Nelson as country.

I'm always amazed that religio- conservo types even use music. I mean, isn't it their goal to turn America into a hyper-christianist corporate empire where, I assume, self-expression would be violently suppressed?

That's actually the subject of the dystopian novel I'm working on. I know that the zombies are in vogue but I find religionists endlessly more terrifying.

That fucking sucks, dude. But I can understand over hearing it.

He's so Chris Evansy it's adorable. He's almost as charming as Hiddleston.

Eva Cassidy's cover of Fields of Gold takes my breath away whenever I stumble across it. And I usually plan on stumbling across it regularly.

"Pounded in the Butt By My Own Butt" is a trans-humanist masturpiece! Chuck Tingle is now GOD!!!

Adam Goldberg was the Hebrew Hammer, why does he need a lame super hero name like Spiderman or Batman?

My mom had a thing for him, as I think most women who had eyes in the 60's, did. She took us to see LOA when it was re-released back in the 80's (?) and I remember thinking how sex and charm and cool just oozed out the guy. The world is a lot less sexy and cool today.

Ah, the Internet, the #1 reason the ex and I don't let Elle Kiddo use the Internet.
