@avclub-1f93a5d50953fac07d7e6f54827ce9bc:disqus Between end-of-year discussion of MK and the Newtown shooting, "exploit" has been getting a lot of incorrect usage lately.

Not trying to play devil's advocate here but I have to imagine it's a pretty small subset of people that will ever jack off to the girl in that scene.  And if they're jacking off to that, I mean, to what degree do you want to tailor what's put on film to that subset?  I mean, it would basically rule out any sub-15…

This is the closest I've ever come to being in exact agreement with an AVC list, even though I disagree with the number one (I'd keep the same movies in the top five, shifting The Master to four).  I'm happy to see Lincoln, Life of Pi, and Beasts of the Southern Wild appropriately (in my opinion) ranked and not…

@avclub-37fbc3a475dad8f4729a4825ab147fde:disqus The bizarre thing is that when I was checking sources on the $25m, I learned that he's approximately $11.5m in debt to the IRS, so I'm not sure how he justifies his retired state.  He should probably at least get RH4 banged out while it's still a feasible option.

Kind of surprised no one's mentioned that $25m number yet.  Is that a figure that's pretty well-known and I'm just out of the loop?  I know the $20m threshold doesn't mean quite what it used to anymore, but still, I would have never pegged him as having made nearly that much for a role.  Nevertheless, I don't begrudge…

Just a general mention for anyone interested in Letterman, Alec Baldwin's "Here's the Thing" episode with him is one of the first times in a long while (probably since 1996/7 or so) that Letterman has really opened up about himself (far more so than his surprising-in-themselves appearances in the last couple of years…

Yeah, I agree, it seemed pretty clear that there was no seriousness there, and despite the fact that I have yet to encounter anyone else willing to admit it, that was a fairly killer toss-off joke.

Thank you for articulating my precise thoughts regarding Malick and The New World more eloquently than I could have hoped to have done.

That stemmed from it being the way Dave had always conducted business.  Carson always had strict stipulations in place to keep Late Night from being too similar to Tonight, and one was that the monologue could have no more than four jokes, and couldn't officially be called a monologue (hence, "Opening Remarks").  Not…
