Pretty sarcastic, Sweet Lou. Not everyone can be a 56 year old African-American retiree.

Are you talking about the scene where he's flying the plane and gives an awkward, forced "thumbs up" despite the constraints of his rubber suit? Yeah, it's hard not to feel bad for the guy.

"Jon Hamm has officially been cast as Batman in Warner Bros. upcoming adaptation of 'The Long Halloween,' joining previously announced cast member Bryan Cranston as Commissioner Gordon. Though not explicitly set in the 1940's, the film's world will hearken back to the retro, 'dark-deco' design popularized by the

He's probably still holding out for a Batman Beyond live-action adaptation.

I'd also like to see that face pasted haphazardly onto the Batman TAS logo.

Now who's trolling? If you like plot development, your favorite is Breaking Bad. If you like character studies, your favorite is Mad Men. To each his own.

Yeah, I've heard that argument that it would "take people out of the film," but I'm not really sure I was ever "in" Skyfall to begin with. I was pretty conscious the whole time that I was watching a Bond movie, from obvious references like the Aston Martin complete with ejector seat, to other heavy-handed stuff like

People are weirdly defensive of Breaking Bad.

I have never seen anyone use a Vaio laptop in real life; just in movies and tv shows. It's only from product placement that I know they exist, and are apparently favored by the tech branch at MI6.

Does he still have his subscription to Ebony magazine?

Remember when she used to steal shit?

You guys are thinking of Megan Draper and Bob Benson, in a bizarre cult-induced murder-suicide, and also one or both of them are FBI agents.

Film classes in general always seem like a fun idea, but at a certain point you realize that the professor is only telling you facts and theories you have already read on Wikipedia or seen in a film doc you watched once. And then it occurs to you that all of the things you are learning in college (and, indeed,

Don't forget Andre De Toth, whose eyepatch cruelly prohibited him from enjoying the 3-D images in his own horror film, House of Wax. For him, it was just another Vincent Price picture with a very reddish tint.

I think I agree with the basic premise that this is one of those movies in which the 10 second one-liner that everyone knows is far more memorable than the rest of the film, but I do recall seeing some documentary in which Scorsese actually cited the scene with Cagney sitting on this mother's lap and particularly the
