I have nothing to add, except that I think "clown shoes" needs to be used more often as a pejorative. I thought I was the only one who used it that way!

Not that I'm complaining, but I've noticed a significant uptick in Face/Off jokes around these parts recently. I wonder why.

The "2 ________ 2 _________" structure for fake sequels will never get old for me.

"Tool's newest music video is a great career move, he tells me …. God, I need a new agent."

A saccharine French film gets remade by the guy responsible for Patch Adams? There are bigger travesties.

What makes it even worse is that she's a fine actress who deserves a much better career. She was easily the best thing about Captain America, and not just because she's drop-dead gorgeous. It'd be great if she could star in a film where she's NOT literally the only good thing about it.

Once again proving that there's no TV show or movie that's so beloved that it can avoid having its legacy eventually tarnished by terrible, unnecessary sequels/tie-ins.

"But way too many people take the not-remotely-nuanced political message of On the Waterfront seriously."

@avclub-5bbc67c39fbdf1c74e28b86c595f6e4a:disqus You're right, nobody watches Metropolis for the story. Just like nobody watches On the Waterfront for its nuanced politics.

I don't think there's anything wrong with didacticism as long as the story it's telling and the characters it's using are interesting in their own right. Metropolis is one of the most moralizing films I've ever seen, but it still works like gangbusters every time I see it. On the Waterfront is similar: maybe it's…

Nice one.

Don't forget that kid from Hugo … Asa Butterworth, I think? My heart yearns for him to be in the news more so that I can read Sean O'Neal's Newswires about him.

"Argo never pretended to be completely true"

That's where I saw the trailer, too. Our theater burst out in snickers at the part where Josh Hamilton's just standing still in the backyard with his back to the camera, then Keri Russell slowly moves around to see his face … AND OMG HIS MOUTH IS HANGING OPEN ISN'T THAT SCARY?!!!?!11!

Josh Hamilton was really disappointed when Christopher Nolan rejected his method take on Two-Face.

Hey, I liked that book! Though that might have had something to do with the fact that I read it long after my dumbass-adolescent days were behind me.
