I know this will never happen so I feel safe making this statement: If they went with tying Agent Cooper into the Agents of Shield (fuck your acronyms) mythology, I would actually watch a few episodes.

Seriously. Are there people who read this site and haven't seen Buckaroo Banzai at least a half dozen times?

Fear of a Black Hat was pretty damn great as well.

My question is this: Where did the idea of Edgar Wright as wild-eyed madcap auteur come from? Don't get me wrong, I love all of his movies, but these are not the work of an unmanageable rebel. If anything, his hallmark is clever, well-executed fidelity to a source material and/or inspiration. Shawn of the Dead hits…

Anyone have stats on the actual success rate of bullshit phishing scams like this? I mean hasn't the target demographic for the ridiculous nonsense long eliminated itself from the gene pool by sticking their tongues in light sockets?

Deliciously. Duh.

Oh for fuck's sake! I want someone to calculate the amount of money spent every year on stupid ironic bullshit: everything from bullshit kickstarter campaigns and handlebar mustache finger tattoos to "Who Farted?" T-shirts and used Debbie Gibson CDs.

I have this theory. After 1 or 2 huge budget (50 mil +) movies, filmmakers should be required to make a movie for under 5 million, just to keep them sharp and to avoid CGI/Fix-It-In-Post-Itis. I mean, the team made Bound seems to be stuck on some batshit carousel of overblown nonsense, it would do them good to ground…

I think "deserve" is a dubious term here, as jukebox musicals generally suck, BUT if were trying to elevate the genre, my top three would be:

Interestingly, Tom Waits' album "Frank's Wild Years" captures the music from the stage show based on the song from Swordfishtrombones. The show was staged at by The Steppenwolf Theatre and was directed by Gary "Lieutenant Dan" Sinise.

I think the problem here is the word "Deserve." I think Zevon would see a jukebox musical treatment of his work as a punishment. As in "What the hell did I do to 'deserve' this?" But yeah, if there were such a thing as a good jukebox musical, Zevon would be good source material.

Fuck the idea of "cupcake pieces" once it's in pieces there is no reasonable way to determine if it's pieces of cupcake or of a conventional cake. The mere use of the term "cupcake pieces" fills me with incoherent rage.

Atlas Shrugged: The Ultimate Battle Between Wish-Fulfillment Caricature Heroes and Straw Man Villains.

Warner Brothers seems to be over looking the fact that Mystery Incorporated is already the fucking tits, and that all they need to do is bring that level of bat shit weirdness to all future Scooby Doo ventures. I mean, you've got Scooby hanging out in a faithful recreation of the Black Lodge waiting room from Twin…

How could you not mention the giggling baby in the sun, looking down on the futile lives of the Teletubbies laughing like some deranged but mirthful god?

Brian Viglione. Not only is he an excellent drummer, but he has a knack for joining awesome projects: HUMANWINE, Gentleman and Assassins, Martin Bisi, World Inferno Friendship Society, etc. Seriously, if you're ever looking to find something new and interesting, just find out what Viglione is up to.

Trying to imagine another comic book property out there that's not under Marvel's control and would make for a good Edgar Wright vengeance vehicle. I'm thinking Transmetropolitan or Preacher. Maaaaaaaybe Tank Girl.

I love that Michael Douglas quote. It just absolutely reeks of Hollywood old guy cluelessness.

And with that, I suddenly remember that Randy Quaid is out of his goddamn mind. Thanks for the reminder.

So…they're going to trim down the manuscript dramatically, change the names and characterizations so they no longer share names or distinguishing characteristics with members of a shitty boy band. That sounds like a fuck-ton of work to put in to a book that you're spending somewhere around a half mil to purchase.
