The ticking clock in the future doesn't add much aside from getting to watch important dudes fight/get killed. I feel like instead of cutting back and forth we maybe could have just seen things going terribly in the possible future at the beginning, and then go through the past with the understanding that this is the…

I don't think i've ever been as afraid of any other movie as i was of this when i was 7.

Currently in development at CBS:

So basically Mystic River.

I can't tell if that's a joke or it actually happened.

That's a good point about how murder-heavy a lot of these things are. I guess that's not a new development (Murder She Wrote didn't do a lot of embezzlement cases with that title) but it would be nice to at least see a wider variety of crime on crime shows.

What, you're not on board based on a description that boils down to "Contains at least one detective" ?

New Girl pretty much gave up too. I'm pretty sure Jess is wearing a belt around the bottom of her sternum at one point this week.

Not Fox obviously, but Mike Hoffman's son on Angie Tribecca is ridiculously cute too.

Yeah i got it along with something else, tried it some solo and just hated it and wasn't any good at it, and didn't want to play something i sucked at with randomly paired folks.

I think it's a somewhat false premise that games aren't drawing from a wider variety of movies etc. Dating sims exist; mystery adventures exist; weird sci fi settings as metaphors for various aspects of humanity and relationships exist (although admittedly they only rarely integrate their gameplay particularly…

I know _some_ but i still certainly wouldn't advise it on the whole.

It seemed like that thing had some real evidence of what it looked like when nazi war criminals fled the country to South America and absolutely zero of anything that made it seem like Hitler was one of them.

They got pretty close to catching him, but then Dick Cheney suspiciously shot him in the face.

I didn't manage to see it until pretty recently myself. It's pretty impressive in basically every way i expected and a few i didn't. Nux (the most characterized war boy, which isn't saying much) is impressively relatable despite my not liking his actor and his having just as few lines as anybody else. I did not go…

The original has a surprising amount of breaking the 4th wall too. The narrator is all "shh, the main character is asleep, now hopefully I can explain his backstory before he wakes up"

They said my performance was thin!

Part of that is our fault and another part is, of course we've already decided, the campaign has already been going on for longer than the entire duration of some similar democracies' national campaigns abroad and our own in the past. It's not crazy to make up your mind in 3 months, it's crazy that those 3 months all…

I bet something good could be done with a a modern version of Dead Souls, but it would take someone a lot smarter than me to figure out the specifics. Obviously in modernity he can't be picking up serfs, but the satirical, episodic structure of schmoozing a bunch of different rich people in order to build what looks…

This reminded me to queue up End of the Tour, and even if i don't get around to seeing it, it will have been worth it just for "Other movies like The End of the Tour:
[…], Downfall.
