Tucker & Dale was amazing. One of the funniest movies in a long time. "Oh hidy ho officer! We've had a doozy of a day. There we were minding our own business, just doing chores around the house when kids started killing themselves all over my property!"

Only four years late, but did anybody see this movie and think, "THAT'S how Anakin Skywalker falls to the dark side!" No doofy speeches, no bullshit about prophetic dreams and something-something stop death and something something murder children. Just a good man's gradual descent, brought on by pride, power,…

Sandra Bernhard was one of those "why the hell is she famous?" people. Was she a crappy stand-up comedian? A piss poor musician? Or a shitty actor?

When I feel lonely . . . when I feel blue . . .

I personally love, "it's not going to be a boring soup! It just, that's just the base! You put the chicken in, you gotta add other flavors. Carrots and celery are just a base of a soup!" Sadly, I don't get to use it often.

Yeah, those are pretty bad. "Request" and "Solution" are perfectly serviceable.

Just commented on that one.
I KNOW it's fucking irritating, it annoys me, too, but there IS a separate meaning. "Moving forward," means that anything you did previously on whatever particular thing wasn't wrong and we don't need to talk about it, just do it this way, now. "From now on" implies (to a lot of people)…

I find myself using these terms that used to make me cringe more and more often. They all have a purpose and can be useful shorthand but they're still irritating. "Moving forward . . ." (anything related to this thing in the past is forgiven and we don't have to talk about it, just change what you're doing) "Synergy"…

Matthew Perry was never really fat, he just got SUPER skinny and then went immediately to "slightly overweight", which read as getting fat.

That was a little trick that they discovered (maybe starting in that Vegas episode). The writers realized that whipping out Matthew Perry's "sincere voice" was a quick and easy emotional applause moment, and trotted it out more and more often as the seasons wore on.

I think the core of that breakup and why it was so painful to watch is that you can absolutely understand both sides of that fight. From Ross' perspective, it's a massive change and he feels like she's drifting away and spending all her time with a good looking guy with whom she shares a passion he's not a part of. He…

I got a kick out of the episode where Chandler cleans the apartment as a surprise for Monica, then increasingly freaks out as everyone tells him what an awful idea that is and how everything needs to go back EXACTLY where it was.

"Oh, God, LOOK WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO CHANDLER!!"

Yeah, saying that static shots are "wrong" (even restricting it to animation) is also saying that "Dr Katz" is inherently bad because it's almost all static shots with lots of dialogue.

It also has the two lines: " You are the master of your universe, and yet, you are dripping with rat blood and feces, your enormous mind literally vegetating by your own hand." and "Because the thing about repairing, maintaining, and cleaning is: it’s not an adventure; there’s no way to do it so wrong you might die."…

Arya: "How come everybody in this family grows except me?"

Well, yeah, watching a shit-load of people get burned alive by dragonfire should probably be a little unnerving if you have any sort of soul.
Also, I love how there are all these characters have been told their whole lives how Aegon Targaryen conquered Westeros with three dragons, but still were TOTALLY unprepared for…

It reminds me of that one guy we've all known at one point or another who thinks it's HILARIOUS when you believe some random bullshit lie he tells . . . even if the lie is completely credible and not inherently funny. Like, "I went to Spain this summer . . ." "Okay, cool, How was that." "Ha, Ha, fooled you! It was…

I agree, but it's got a lot more material than 13 episodes. I think 10-13 episodes would cover most of the first two books, then it'd be basically a season per book through to the end (though they'd have to do something about Wolves of the Calla. Not sure anyone would stand for a season-long extended flashback).

There will be a reboot in three years into the HBO series it should've been in the first place.
