I'm bingeing on Breaking Bad even as we speak (thank you netflix!). I'm only in season three now, but….
I just want to say that Cranston's "natural comic talent" described above, is never that far away when he's being Walter White.  I mean, the show's getting darker and the stakes are getting higher, but there are nice

Though I rarely catch Woody Allen movies in the theatre any more, it is still very comforting to know how steady he is.  
In his book Final Cut, Steven Bach talks about screening the then-new Allen movie (I think it might have been Manhatten) after going through the debacle that was working with Cimino and trying to

In order to avoid this type of thing, I'm going to start a site that reviews the theatrical releases of six months from now.  Might call Leonard Pierce in on it.

Damn, damn damn…

I liked the end of the third book a lot, mostly because it was a permanent fix, and left Collins with no way, or reason, to do any more in the series.

Oh, I kinda envy you, not having seen the Marx Brothers movies!  Here's my recommendation:  see them all except for Room Service, which was not originally written for them, and Love Happy, which is their last, and not great.

I'm struck by the shrink's utter inadequacy in his own profession.  When confronted with an actual, textbook  set of psychlogical problems, in the form of Kovacs, he completely blows it.  He thinks first of the book he might get out of it, how it will make him famous —only, barely, thinking of his patient.  Rorschach

I'm reading Wool, and liking it a lot.  It makes me never want to wash a window, for some reason..

Best twist in the middle of a novel anywhere, any time was in Ira Levin's A Kiss Before Dying.  None better, ever.

Scruffylove has just given us an example of the true potential of twitter.

The only time a Batman vs. Superman fight as ever worked for me was in Dark Knight Returns.  I think it's the only way it ever could work. 

Handsome, that's the only way this movie makes sense, and I wish they would do it that way, and I wish they would pay you for it.

Logo should be easy.  A "B"  and an "S".

But invisible planes never go out of style….

I like that Crabtree & Evelyn idea — little batarang-shaped soaps, Super shampoo and Super conditioner — you only have to lather and rinse ONCE, no repeating…  Oh, and some dainty hand towels with the bat and "s" logos.

I do.  I call The Great Gatsby Jay and Daisy.  I call Lethal Weapon Riggs and Murtaugh.

Many likes for that one, Insertwriter.  I laughed out loud.

I don't want to unduly influence anyone here, but I'm pretty sure that Nicolas Cage IS Batman.  (As he "was" Superman, at one point.  Maybe he can play both.)

I don't know, I would hide under an overpass if I was from Kansas.

Certainly there will be a considerable savings on pixels, because, you know.  Less imagery needed.
