A lot of 80s new wave stuff has aged really well in the past ten years. It sounded horrible in the 90s. But when cock rock got stale with Bush then Nickelback etc, indie artists started dipping in the 80s well and a lot of it is fucking awesome.

That South Park was awesome. I hope they make fun of AVClub one day!

It's funny and also oddly understandable when female viewers of gangster films get jealous over…

"When Nucky shows up to demand payment from the Mayor on an unrelated construction site, he seems genuinely aggrieved the Mayor wouldn’t have considered Nucky was owed a cut"

I found it confusing also. And I'm not a fan of seeing Richard act so carelessly as to accidentally leave behind a piece of paper that leads to his sister's whereabouts.

I liked Babette a lot. I love it when a pretty woman has that much intelligence. Exactly that much.

Here's a funny video on curing bat-related film-based phobias:

I was being deadpan.
