What Would Jack Burton Do

Having never seen either of the "National Treasure" movies, my initial reaction to seeing him in "Modern Family" was "Hey, it's the asshole from the 'Dawn Of The Dead' remake".

"Mark Twain: The Water Retention Years"

Did you know that fruit-smashing comedian Gallagher had a heart-attack?  Well you would, if they were running stories today.

Ugh.  I've never seen that, but just reading it made me angry. And yes, fuck that guy.  He's just pissed because time has been kind to the Monkees (as well it should have), while Herman's Hermits will always suck.

Where the fuck was he when the Ataris were recording their one album?

Yeah, I'm pretty surprised by the grade on this.  I'm not nearly as hard on the show as a lot of people, but I can see why they are.  However, I actually thought this episode did a great job at not falling into the same issues the show typically has, and it's one of the few episodes where I can actually say that about

Agree on that so much.

I genuinely hope that one morning in the near future you wake up only to find that your right eyeball and your asshole have swapped places while you were asleep.  Get over yourself.

I personally really liked it.  I know a lot of people found it hit or miss.  Aside from South Park (and Chappelle's Show, which they didn't actually cancel) shows I like on Comedy Central tend to get the axe.  I'll never forgive them for cancelling Stella and TV Funhouse.

Archer's drunken giggle and the way he says "Phrasing" when Gillette says "I'm coming out" killed me.  H. Jon Benjamin is a national treasure.

That goddamn scene…jesus, what an effective shot.

Without giving anything away to anyone who hasn't watched the show, "Pick A Number" contains easily one of the creepiest moments in the history of television (or anything ever, really).   Like, I literally shivered the first time I saw it. And I'm a horror-junkie, so that's saying a lot.  I really need to break this

Good news (if you're serious)…there is a Killer Klowns sequel coming out, from the creators of the original.  Supposedly in 3-D too.

Who are you to argue?  Thou shalt not adapt.

He's the epitome of that belief.

Yeah it is.  And I think it's funny that the guy who's known to the general public as the director of "Christmas Story" got his start with some legitimately great horror films.

I love watching him in that.  He'd done plenty by that point to have earned his stripes and prove that he was a great actor.  You can tell he's just having a great time with that role in every scene that he's in that movie, and it's so fun to see.

Trigger Man is OK if you go into it knowing it was made for like $5.  I originally became a fan of West because of his first film, "The Roost".  I really like that one, but I'm in the minority on that as far as I know.
