I'll side with you on this one Jordo. I'm actually a pretty big season 7 apologist, but this episode just didn't work for me. The twist ending felt cheap, and while I have no problems with the actress, the character of Cassie just felt like a collection of angsty teenage cliches. Look at how dark she is! She listens…

Holy shit the amount of douche in this thread is unnerving.

Everything's coming up CRICKET!!!
Nice to see my favorite street-rat getting some work. Maybe his life's finally turning around!

I think we're all forgetting that Russel Crowe's character had to be pretty studly in A Beautiful Mind. After all, he wound up with Jennifer Connelly in that movie, and a quick google image search shows that that's quite an accomplishment.

I don't know, I feel like almost any band receiving any attention at all is stealing it from Frightened Rabbit. I irrationally love those guys.

Quiz Show isn't a "hell I'd give it to them" example. It was just a terrific movie.

But the Gordon Levitt hallway fight from Inception was nominated, which kind of makes up for it. Because if there's any form of internet justice out there that would win over anything ever made.

The Social Network was excellent, and I didn't see a better movie than it last year. But you're all entitled to be wrong.

The Power Puff Girls also featured original music from Frank Black, such a remarkably awesome kids show. And back in the day, The Fairly Oddparents had some terrific episodes with Adam West, Jay Leno, Justin Timberlake, and Ben Stein all doing significant amounts of guest voice work.

I just read the whole story thanks to 2soon, and I have to say, I can't believe I never heard that the "hostage" was in on it the whole time. That makes it even more bizzarely fucked up, if a little less sad.

Gotta agree with the rapist. Based on that logic, The Pineapple Express and Tropic Thunder are irredeemable because they were insensitive to victims of drug wars. Scenarios that are depressing in real life can be inspiration for hilarity in the context of a comedy movie; I don't see how that's even really debatable.

Yeah, I could see the consistency argument if they stopped at three, but the final few just don't quite measure up. Four was just a million times more ridiculous than any of the other films (Can you imagine Pauly getting a robot maid/wife in the first movie?) and the final two just didn't have that same spark of life…

I doubt I'll be swaying you or anything, but, I interpreted that penultimate episode where Buffy went catatonic way differently. I thought she only got out of it when she realized she could still fight, that she had to stop feeling sorry for herself, and that she needed to step up to save Dawn and the world. I feel as…

Not to mention how prescient Season 7 turned out to be. With a young minority political unknown riding a campaign of borderline naive optimism against an Alan Alda character that clearly based on John McCain. Pretty impressive for a show that ended in May 2006.

First, I'd like to repeat that just because I think ending with season 5 would have been best does not mean that I especially dislike seasons 6 or 7. I don't even necessarily believe that season 5 is even better than season 6 on an episode by episode basis. But it ends the series on the perfect note.

I agree completely.

I mean he's happy, but the guy who's body he's taken and who's girlfriend he's trying to screw really gets fucked over in that movie. Plus, whenever Jake Gyllenhaal doesn't know where his house is or who his family members are or how to get to work, people probably will get a tad suspicious.

mratfink, glad to see someone else was thinking my thoughts. We'd probably be kick-ass double's partners in tennis.

The thing about those Christmas episodes is that they were so much more than a tacked on happy ending. They actually have some of the darkest moments in the series (David Brent begging for his job back and his gradual discovery that his celebrity came from a place of hate and disdain were two of the most difficult…
