He also has a producer's credit, like Kurtzman, Orci, and Chartoff, and that probably means some cut of the profit and/or back-end (no pun intended). The guy has been working in mainstream entertainment for a long time and lives in SoCal; it's hard to believe his lawyers didn't work out a sweet deal for him that went…

I liked Graham rising like a kaiju out of the surf. It was both disturbing and a good gag.

Agree with your first point. I find most Shakespeare to be terrifying by
modern standards, at least in terms of the personal behavior of (many)
of his enduring characters, though I think in terms of broad themes
there is some resonance to be found. Then again, I find a lot of modern
cinema and TV to be populated by…

It's the only thing I remember from that movie besides the scene at the hockey game.

But lots of Silicon Valley, BMW types… Also, too, lots of "moderate liberals" and Reagan Democrats.

I respect that, Dwarf, I really do. Lots of people genuinely like his work. I read him in the late 80's and early 90's, and I just found some of the violence in the stuff I read pretty gratuitous, almost gleeful. I also found that the religious themes of his work didn't really mesh with my sensibilities. Just my own…

A fucking horrible person. Actually, I didn't think it was pretentious either, but I can see how it might make someone (who is a cynical asshole) roll their eyes.

Many SF writers are pretty conservative politically, but I've never liked this douche's work. It has all the cruelty and sadism of a truly repressed mind, and I don't mean that sexually. He's always seemed like an uptight little prick gleefully spewing his pathology onto a page. I have Clive Barker for that shit,…

I like that idea, but could we add Grylls hunting them as they tried to reach their goal?

She doesn't show up on film anyway. Not because she's a vampire, but because a Zooey Deschanel who people would pay to see in a live concert is a figment of your fucking imagination.

David Byrne just recommended we try to experience a few hours of our life without a screen in front of our face, but he wasn't a prick about it. Pretentious, maybe, but he still didn't care if we took pictures.

The greatest sin of this show was that it was boring, even with the piss chugging.

According to Bear Grylls, that's not a bad way to hydrate yourself when all you have is dirty water.

As a young teen, I learned a lot about swearing from this film.

It's called an "original thought," Hollywood. Try it sometime.

That has to be the first time that combining wits with Arnold Schwarzenegger has paid off for anyone.

Any trailer that tells me "life is a journey" can go fuck itself.

Someone should blame Obama.

Every time Lisa was on screen, my balls retracted like I was freezing to death. I think if I had married someone like that, I would have long ago stolen some NSA data and fled to Ecuador.

The first time I watched season three, I found the character of Lisa so smothering, repressed, and repulsive that now I cannot watch Lili Taylor in anything.
