American Hustle is like the film version of Boardwalk Empire. Beautiful sets. Amazing performances. Individual scenes that leap off the screen. Not nearly enough compelling storytelling.

I generally am a Christian Bale fan but my biggest problem with American Hustle was that I felt like my emotional investment in the movie hinged on my caring about the fate of Bale's character who, quite possibly through fault of the script and not his, was literally the 5th most interesting person in the movie behind

What an adorkable sign o' the times…

Walking out on movies and asking for a refund (short of a personal emergency) REALLY bothers me. It's like you are accusing your local AMC of having some fault in Movie 43 being terrible. Hollywood makes it, sends it to the theater, they put it on the screen, and you pay to have a nice, comfortable place to see it.

My favorite was always "The Strong, Silent Type." Chris's intervention ending with everyone just kicking the shit out of him stays so true to the character of everyone in Tony's crew. And Tony exploding on Chris after he hears about the him sitting on Adrianna's dog ("Losing a pet can be very traumatic!") makes me

Uma Thurman?

Wolves is one of my favorite records ever.Trying to phonetically type out Tim Armstrong lyrics is super fun.

Armond White really wishes everyone would just act like Grown Ups

I really hope there are graphic scenes of Marky Mark slaughtering the Taliban scored to "You've Got the Touch" in Lone Survivor.

My biggest problem with the show is the separate comedy and drama categories. I feel like none of the movies nominated for best comedy/musical were actually comedies/musicals….

Jared Leto has always (Chapter 27 aside) been a solid actor and was great in Dallas Buyers Club. That being said, if you are the Hollywood Foreign Press, you cannot separate the fact that he is responsible for some of the absolute worst music of the new millennium. 30 Seconds to Mars is so bad that it effectively

My screenplay for Free Willy Vs. Jaws is still just sitting out there waiting to make 100 million domestic.

Wow, you are clearly from Stillwater. I lived there while going to OSU. Nick's sister cut my hair for a few years, didn't learn of that story until I moved out of town.

Less adorkable, but undeniably more porkable.

I'd give it a C. My big gripe with not only this episode, but the season as a whole is that I have no investment in the Brody baby and I don't see how the show can do anything interesting with it in the future. It's just going to turn into a Dexter situation where Carrie has some nanny that works 320 hours a week.

For a minute, I thought that last scene with Carrie walking through the empty CIA building was going to be an homage to the Boy Meets World scene with Mr. Feeny staring at his empty classroom one last time. I halfway expected Carrie to sigh and say, "Class Dismissed".

I hope he releases prequels to "Marry The Pussy". "Engagement To The Pussy" and "Courtship Of The Pussy" are songs I desperately need to hear.

I remember when Nicky Katt shot a gun off in his classroom to scare the students on Boston Public and didn't get fired, because he cares goddammit.

"I've got you so wet, like a rainforest/ it's like Jurassic Park and I'm your Sexasaurus"

R. Kelly knows more about sex than I know about anything.

Lost in this discussion is the continued brilliance of Uncle Charlie (last name Wilson). That guy is this generation's Nate Dogg.
