As great as his voice work is in this episode, his readings as The Pull-Out King in Portlandia instantly became the funniest Goldblum performance of all time for me.

McArthur Parker the agent? McArthur Parker my agent?!

I'm glad this is finally being made; it was a few years ago that I read it but it was one of the more solid screenplays I came across at the time. It works as a sweeping drama on a crucial moment in time, but I was impressed that it's also a procedural, focusing in large part on the nuts-and-bolts that drive the daily…

John Green fandom seems to have become the go-to choice for the Tumblr generation to express how deep they are.

I've done a hell of a lot of masturbation in my days

The moray read, the less I like this thread.

Obviously nobody likes what they did with Ed Helm's character in the last few seasons, but the cold opening in Back from Vacation is one of the funniest and most perfect uses of him - a great glimpse at how the 'Nard Dog tries desperately but just. doesn't. get it.

There's no Moviefone app - don't you see?? They're doing it to fool Lloyd Braun!

Oh, the Hammock District!

I don't really agree with Podmass's contention that "people get more upset over animal than human mistreatment" was the takeaway from that Freakonomics episode.

I feel secure about myself in that I'm the type of person who enjoys reading the Talk pages on Wikipedia articles but would never involve myself in one.

When Rowan's not writing the review, all the commentators should be asking "Where's Rowan?"

Upvoted for admirable sincerity and lack of Hmmph.

Wait, wait - so the cops knew that internal affairs were setting them up?

That's it! You people have held me back long enough! I'm going to clown college!

To me it's an extension of the way the show itself seemed to drift that way. Except for the absolute bottom of the barrel films, during the Joel era there was to me a palpable sense of almost relishing the cheesiness of the movies they mock. Almost a feeling of "yeah, this is laughable, but it's SUPPOSED to be bad, so…
