I can see where you're coming from, but for me, he's just so easily ignored.  Unlike, say, Eddie Murphy or Adam Sandler, Martin Lawrence never had a huge amount of goodwill that he later squandered on a series of shitty movies.  I put him in the same category as Rob Schneider. 

Has it?  Because I've been glued to my television set for at least 15 years and I've often asked myself, "Whatever happened to that delightful Martin fellow?"

Leaving out Dawn, I just got the idea that, yeah, it sucked for a little bit, but we eventually got things under control.  Sure, we have to be a little more careful with our dead (which, in times of plague, isn't so ridiculous), and we have to cut our mouning time down by quite a bit, but otherwise, we'd get a grip on

@avclub-6562c5c1f33db6e05a082a88cddab5ea:disqus My Zombie Apocalypse plan is the closest thing I have to a retirement plan right now.

Legally, apoligizing is a very touchy thing.  The theater owners (and Cinemark, assuming it's a franchise) will already be on the hook in a lawsuit for negligence, and if they don't word their apology correctly, any slimy lawyer will happily twist that apology into an admission of liability.  Even the back of my car

The issue that O'Neal is pointing out is that the quote from the families implies that Cinemark has been silent about this whole thing, and only now comes forward offering free movie tickets, which is pretty far from the truth.  Whether they should have been happy with the original response or not is one thing, but to

This isn't relevant, but I sort of miss that show.  Belle and Sebastian.

This might have been at the end of the new one, but didn't Ben, after he goes into the basement, find the gas pump key and start laughing?  I think that was the new one, but it did address Ben's failure to see reason as the answer to all their problems was actually in the basement he so steadfastly refused to enter.

But nothing says self-inflicted religious oppression like a big ol Creepy Jesus statue in your living room.

But Cooper is only right after hindsight.  It's easy for us to say what the right course of action is, because we all have zombie apocolypse plans mapped out.  Not only did they have no real idea what was going on, the authorities on the radio and television all told them to get to the shelter.  Ben was correct is his

I feel that the movie is really less about zombies and more about how people would react to zombies, or really, any apocalyptic scenario that falls outside of the norm.  We never really learn anything about the zombies that the characters didn't learn on their own, or hear from news reports.  We get some speculation

Really hope that rapping thing works out for him, cause he won't be getting that McDonald's gig as a fallback now.

But you pay a monthly fee for cable and get commercials there too.  Personally, I never found commercials all that offensive, and I've never really jumped on the "ads are evil" bandwagon.  Sometimes, I need to be told what to buy and when to watch stuff.  I didn't notice how much I relied on commercials until I went

Hulu has it, doesn't it?

His Blaze TV noise keeps popping up on my recommended channels on Roku.  I clicked it once, but the giant baby-man wants me to pay for it! With a credit card! Can you believe it?  If Roku really loved America, it would have added a slot to its device that lets me pay with the gold coins I've been hoarding.

I hear you on Mad Men.  I'm not sure what my adversion has been except that it seems like a big show to try to take on all at once.  I have friends who still haven't started The Sopranos, so I guess I know where there coming from now.

I think it's nice that animated feature films have become such commonplace in the mainstream that nominations for Outstanding Animated Feature doesn't just include The One There Was This Year. 

I always thought producers had big jobs like securing film locations and funding and basically hiring everybody.  I was always under the impression that Executive Producers were the ones just buying a title and credit.
