Don't hate
As far as vanity projects go, this is one has a good cause: teaching people recent history by suckering them into learning it during a romance movie.

Huge bummer
Here's hoping his afterlife is a dream beyond his excellent, fantastic imagination.

Almost certainly Gwen, Black Cat, or Betty. Probably Felicia if they're keeping it a secret.

I wouldn't have read this article except that it said "30 Rock" in the RSS Feed. So, for the AVClub, it was a good business decision to say "30 Rock" to get me to view the ads.

For ease of reading, he wanted to combine "huntees" with "hunters," and for clarity's sake, he couldn't use "predators" instead of "hunters." Not the worst thing in the world.

I dislike the ending of Micmacs. I also disliked most of the rest of the movie. There was nothing to any of the characters, except the businessmen, who were cool.

BRODYQUEST
Still can't see a picture of Adrien Brody without thinking of the best day of his life, as documented here:

Wrong crowd, Coldstream.

Also, anyone who can't enjoy Norah Jones probably has trouble enjoying their life.

@Kyle - I'm with you on Blueberry Nights. I liked it, and I totally agree on the "who cares what they're saying" angle (except the scenes with Straitharn and Weisz, who I thought were really good).

Gimmickry
"playing full Spector-produced tracks over static courtroom shots while running Mick Brown's critiques of each song in subtitled text"

Let us all rush to the internet boards to criticize the review of the movie that none of us will see.

For me, Kill Bill went from awful to embarrassingly awful when Lucy Liu and Uma Thurman said "Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids," and we weren't supposed to laugh at how stupid the movie was.

Adolf Lu Hitler Marak
Hitler is still politicking in India after unsuccessfully running for Congress:

Blagh
This movie just didn't work for me. I get that it's supposed to be cute and childlike, so maybe I'm supposed to forgive the fact that there aren't any interesting characters. And the social commentary feels like it was written by a freshman in high school.

Africa
Apartheid is not even close to the worst thing that has happened to Africa since apartheid.

Music Box is always fun
This should be good. If I'm in town, I'll be there with my film snobbiest friends.

As a redhead who has always liked M.I.A…
My opinion hasn't really changed much after watching this video.

Also, I have the t-shirt that the guy in the picture is wearing on the left, and Hardy signed it for me. Really nice guy, that George Hardy.

Troll 2 is fun, The Room is sad
Having seen Troll 2, with guests Stephenson and Hardy and The Room, with guest Wiseau at the Music Box in Chicago, I can say that Stephenson and Hardy had a much better sense of humor about the whole thing than Wiseau, who just made me feel sad.
