The only British series I'm watching at the moment is Red Riding, but that's more of a "miniseries"-type deal - 3 2-hour episodes, with a definite end point. Before that it was The Devil's Whore, which started off pretty silly but grew thanks to the awesomeness of Dominic West (again, another miniseries). Aside from

an album-length collaboration?
Screw that. I want a videogame where Fall Out Boy fight a Middle Eastern nation for a diamond encrusted skull. I say fight, but the player's amusement would derive from watching them die horribly. I'd call it "Fall Out Boy and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skullfucking".

Oh, if I was an actor I'd watch my filmed performances, just to see if I'd hit the mark or not. I just liked him casually mentioning that he hadn't watched his own films. It added to the "Yes, I'm awesome. What of it?" air he gives off throughout the interview.

I like how he's completely upfront about not watching his own performances. This was a great interview, and I've now got a list of crime flicks I need to watch.

Well, I thought that repurposing underutilized content for non-linear delivery methods to maximize growth in unexploited demographics pretty much spoke for itself.

You forgot to mention the tagline for the mobile site
"Imagine Smaller"

"Imagine Greater"
I liked it better when it was "Embiggen Imagination".

The Distinct Lack of Anger?

Not "and space mom"? Now that would've kept me watching!

To be followed by a remake of Sunshine, where the family has to take Alan Arkin's corpse on wacky life-affirming trip to set off a nuke inside the sun.

The plot sounds vaguely similar…
…to Laurent Cantet's Time Out. Sounds like they do more with the premise though, which is good because I found Time Out to be pretty dull.

I liked him as the dimwit deputy in No Country For Old Men. And wasn't he in that Terminator series as well?

Maybe it's the Mamet influence, but I liked the fact that almost every episode featured a plot twist of some sort. They weren't really shocking or "game-changing" like 24 (which led to diminishing returns on that show), more like the characters using a neat ruse to further their plans.

"You definitely have to read the full run of Mr. District Attorney."

Recommendations?
I am straight stealing this idea from EvelKareebel, because I too need guidance in my comic buying habits. First off, thanks to the commenters who recommended all those Grant Morrison titles in the last Comics Panel. I will take the plunge into one (or more) of those very soon, time and money

The story I was referring to is called "Procreate, Generate" and it's by Anthony Doerr. Read it, philistines!

Yeah, Mcfly27's comment just made me think of the "non-apology apologies" we get from public figures. The phrase "My bad" just carries too much honesty and responsibility for a lot of people these days.

I knew the story sounded familiar! It was in that "Best of Young American Writers" collection, right? It was a prety great story - I'll have to look out for the book. The collection as a whole is fairly hit and miss, but it's got a story about a couple trying to concieve that is just heartbreaking.

I'm glad someone else didn't get it the first time, because I felt like a mouth-breathing pleb reading this article. I mean, the film had a lot of atmosphere, but very little happened. In fact, the ending was the only part I liked - if only becasue it seemed like a parody of what had gone before. I might have to watch
