Do it. Hostel 2 is like an adult take on Hostel. The subtexts about misogyny, power-relationships within the corporate elite, American cultural naivete in the face of olde worlde quaintness and the overwhelming dominance of money as a bargaining tool over every other ethical consideration in the global marketplace…

Me. I'm saying it. Hostel 2 was in almost every way, superior to Hostel.

The DVD extras on Cabin Fever, which are mainly just Roth telling anecdotes, are more entertaining than the film.

I vastly preferred Hostel 2 to the first one. It ends with one of the most complex moral switcheroos in a mainstream film I can think of AND delivers the gore. The performances were pretty great too.

I like Tarantino's slow, deliberate pacing usually (it's one of the best feature of Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, the way he allows the atmosphere of a room or a street or a yard to just seep into the audience's bones), but it didn't work for me in Jackie Brown. The only scene that really works for me is the…

With Amy Irving? Way ahead of ya. I can't get enough crazy-old-man cock. Apparently.

Uh, Sydney/Hard Eight is a low-key noir with a handful of characters. It doesn't really fit into the 'massive, multi-character, multi-strand narrative' pattern. Just sayin'.

I lked The Last Movie. The last 10 minutes of endless looped shots of Hopper being 'shot' and twisting balletically around in slow motion while the camera-car tracks elegently past him is one of the best things I've ever seen in a film. Don't know why.

Kid A is their best album. By a long chalk. But then I hated Pablo Honey and (about half of) The Bends and thought that OK Computer was their first good album. I hate the fact that so many people just want Radiohead to be boring and pandering like U2. You people already have fucking Coldplay, let the rest of us have…

I thought Jackie Brown was boring and incoherent when i saw it in the cinema, and when I re-watched it on DVD years later, my mind hadn't changed. I know why people want it to be his best film (and I don't doubt for a second that the people who love it do so genuinely) but i really think it's terrible. I'd rather sit…

Best Inventory in ages.

In Utero was the album that made me like Nirvana again after years of getting beaten up by neds while 'Teen Spirit' played in the background. For me, the tragedy of Nirvana is that Cobain checked out just as his band had the chance to reach their full potential. They got better, more intense and more addictive with…

I liked The Brown Bunny. It's The Last Movie of it's day. And yes, I mean that as a (sort-of) compliment. It's like 2-Lane Blacktop with less plot and more erections.

Great interview Tasha
This is why I read the AV Club. You give proper attention and a proper platform to people who'd barely get a paragraph in most other publications or websites. That was a pretty long interview for a guy who's acted in one film, but you were interested enough in his background outside of the movie…

My two favourite contenders for 'sounds like a sweet love song but really, REALLY isn't' are You're Gorgeous by Baby Bird and Perfect Day by lou Reed, which are are, respectively, actually about child pornography and heroin. No joke.

I just need to ask: did you get my poems?

Is this….
….just a Hallmark Channel version of Alain Resnais' lost existentialist French science fiction movie Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime? Cos it's always fucking sounded like it to me.

I think we can all agree that the worst first dance at a wedding would be 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For'.
