"What I like best about being dean is the peace and quiet that comes with being the head of a University… [buzz]… what's all this then?"

I assume the party scenes will be like the party scene from the Mr. Show "Boogie Nights" parody. People swallowing a lot of sugar and then being spun around in circles!!!! Crazy!!!!!

I like both, but when people cite them as their favorites, I guess I just don't see what it is about those movies that they are responding to. When I think about…

I've longed hoped for  A Bug's Life 2, not because the film needs or deserves a sequel, just because I feel bad for Dave Foley.

I agree with both, but the Williams song that I find to be the most rousing is the 1941 title theme. I've still never seen the movie, however.

Robert Osborne.

I'm glad to see that Nathan Rabin didn't take all the Weird Al plugging with him when he left.

That. That is the exact scene they keep making me watch.

Yeah, I remember the AV Club calling this the first real disappointment at Cannes. Now I just don't know what to think.

Is this the only television adaptation to win Best Picture and/or the Palme D'Or?

Even soup! Is nothing sacred?!!?

Mercury Rising is not a good movie, but it does feature this hilarious character who apparently exists for no other reason but to remind people that this is a movie from the 90's. She casually uses the catchphrase "Don't have a cow, man!" and while shopping at a flea market she asks her soon-to-be-dead boyfriend "What…
