If there's one subculture I would love to hear more about, it's the Juggalos.

Oh my gosh, the showing of LOOPER I went to (which started at 10 pm, by the way) had some idiot parent in the front seats with her 7-year-old girl. This is a movie with explicit child murder in it!  ***SPOILER*** ***SPOILER*** During the scene where Bruce Willis shoots the first kid, the 7-year-old started crying and…

Not enough "likes" in the world for this. Maybe you and I should collaborate on my "Black Plague as zombie plague" story idea that I mentioned above, @avclub-83de02c3cfc3634de1279cbc17a8fbae:disqus ?

The problem with setting an epic-level zombie movie in the present day is that it's just too implausible to me that the epidemic would get beyond the borders of whatever nation it started in. Especially if they're of the turbo-variety, turn-into-a-zombie-seconds-after-the-bite kind of thing. You can have a modern-day…

I like fast zombies, but it's an insult to the source material to stick them into a World War Z adaptation.

I think The Dark Knight is generally quite good, visually speaking. The fight scenes are edited all to hell (I don't mean that the cutting is too quick, just that none of it is framed so that you can tell what you're looking at before the cut comes), but it's not as if Nolan just sticks his cameras in front of some…

This is, no exaggeration, one of my favorite movies. I think it actually gets better with repeat viewings, because you can stop concentrating on the plot mechanics and start thinking about the significance of everything that happens. In the end, it's a supremely disturbing portrait of a person whose quest for meaning…
