So, another review by the running-dog Capitalist press that begins with the lines, "Never before, either in his solo work or as a member of ______, has _____ sounded more pissed off." Pissed off? This could be applied to anyone over the last 20 years. What do the puppets that dress themselves up as pimps and drug

Most movies have plot holes galore, but for me Prometheus may be the only movie I can think of that literally, scene for scene, makes no sense whatsoever. You can stop at any point in the movie and not a single character is doing anything that remotely resembles how a human would react under said circumstances. It's

The years go by and yet no one has made a mashup or “Wonderful Christmastime” with “Funky, Funky Xmas,” by New Kids on the Block. Just think of the awesome.

In John Wayne's death-movie, The Conqueror, his Fu Man Chu/ Genghis Khan facial hair changes length depending on the shot. When his stunt double is riding a horse it's short but when he's wooing Susan Hayward ("she is woman, much woman") it's in its glorious cheesy long state.

What else is there to say —- Marilyn Hacker's Elegy for Janis Lyn still gives me chills:

You say that but there was that whole week when Clint Eastwood was filming Gran Torino in Detroit and suddenly all those years of obscurity and grinding poverty were worth it.

According to the Encyclopedia of Arabic Literature, the word, "Mufaraqa," is used to mean, "an ironic or humorous situation." As in: Isn't Moore from Flint? The refugees are going to land at Bishop International and think that this is some sort of sick joke. "Great, we survived drones and IS only to end up in a city

O! jimbles, we've missed you!

What I love about Schulz is the rabid misanthropy, his despair of humanity, that he embodied in Charlie Brown, especially as he got older. As a child I hated Charlie Brown, he was so hopeless and whiny, bullied by virtually everyone and everything for reasons that were never clear, but he also scared me because

Darn you, you made David Bowie cry and no amount of cocaine is helping.

Voice of Iron Giant?

The lady shrieks, and well-a-fear
Does fall in travail with her rear …

Isn't the whole point of D&D that people shaped like Gary Gygax can pretend they're shaped like Vin Diesel? I would totally go see a movie where Diesel let himself go for the role, like Mickey Rourke did as a skinnier, handsomer Charles Bukowski in Barfly

By Grabthar's hammer, by the suns of Worvan, I don't have 13 year-olds, I don't have to worry about this shit!

Did the reviewer go to Cal Arts and is so depressed on how much money he spent on a failed education that he's taking it out on his readers? Because only drunken bitterness would explain why someone would use "longueurs" in a tediously written passage, which, by its very usage, defines the word for those of us without

So what is the single memorable moment, the spectacularly gross and harrowing death scene that here, and only here, Roth comes closest to achieving the primal horror of the genre he’s attempting to revive that the original review so coyly hinted about?

Prayer Warriors: when Office Ninjas are not enough.

I looooved this episode since it clearly wasn't an issue of if BoJack was going to fuck up, it was knowing that whatever was going to happen at the end of the season this was going to be the crowning glory. Sure it's pure schadenfreude —— the reviewer forgot to mention the alcohol poisoning and ditching the two kids

"Dad, was Paul McCartney in a band before Wings?"
