In Marc Maron's WTF episode with Adam Scott, Adam explains why he switched from dramatic/tragic roles to comedic roles. When reminiscing about his drama days, he says something like, "I would drive into work every morning, thinking to myself, 'Fuck, I'm gonna have to cry about a miscarriage today.'" When he got the

I dunno. Depends on if you like a little junk in the…

I dunno, maybe there's still comedy to be mined here. What if—and I'm just spit-ballin' here—the twentysomethings sit around and make pop culture references with each other instead of getting a job? They'll refuse to grow up, but in the end, they'll learn a lesson about maturity…and so will we.

When I first saw the poster and trailer for this movie, it looked like just another "adult who can't grow up" movie that has been run into the ground by Will Ferrell, Seth Rogan, and Adam Sandler over the last decade. The 2000s obsession with manboyism actually creeps me out, apart from any potential annoyance with

Seriouspost:  it's all well and good to joke that these shows will never air, but if Andy Daly's show never happens, I swear I'm gonna kill myself. And then come back as a dragon.

B-but, if you're famous, it's not annoying, right? I mean, those other people/passengers/sacs of meat should be grateful to ride with you, and your outburst on Twitter will be the one ray of starlight in their otherwise dim, meaningless existence.

Um, this is a little embarrassing to say, but uh…a-are you…Malcolm Gladwell's gimmick account?

The logical thing would be to have a "jerk-off friendly" section of the theater. Do that, America, and I might actually pay to see The Smurfs 2.

I wish someone would make a film version of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. Best case scenario:  Fox News would find a way to call it Socialist, and the universe would fold in on itself in one final show of cosmic irony, putting us all out of our misery.

Holy crap, when you say Fred Armisen's Obama impression lacks energy, you ain't just whistlin' dixie! It's even worse than I remember from the last time I saw him do it. He's not even trying to do a voice.

I'd only watch it for the plugs at the end.

Ah, if only we could make this post a reality. With such an abundance of upcoming Snow White multiverses, the mind boggles at the possibilities! Imagine an infinite regression with Kirsten Stewart squirting on Lily Collins squirting on Ginnifer Goodwin squirting on Julia Roberts squirting on Charlize…

Saw this today, and it was a bit different from what I expected. From the coverage it was getting as "that movie about a guy with a sex addiction," I kind of expected it to be about the main character's struggle to rehabilitate himself. Instead, he doesn't even seem to think he has a problem until almost the very end.

I've seen it, and actually McQueen succeeds at doing what you say, mostly because Fassbender's performance is so expressive of his inner despair. Also, even Carey Mulligan's naked body (with everything in view) is shot in a remarkably non-sexual way.

Actually, the scene that precedes the beating up is even more awesome than you think.

Thanks for the confession. Just emailed this thread and all those like it to the FBI. Have fun in jail, you dirty pirate bums.

Metallica can finally rest easy!

You might even say that the grade…is…
