I think Maeby pipped him just a tiny bit.

I saw that same criticism applied to Franco's As I Lay Dying.

I've found it very interesting watching the opinions of all the queer critics (that I'm aware of, anyway) I follow generally lining up, a lot of the time inverse to Mike's. Keith Uhlich's reviews are Time Out NY have been stellar, particularly for Stranger by the Lake and The Immigrant.

You say that as though men are the only receptive audience to onscreen sex. That's on men, not on her as a creator.

You don't interpret it that way because she specifically targets company control of female sexuality, not women who participate in it. Porn is a perfectly acceptable thing for women (or men) to do as a profession; that said, much of porn production is controlled by men. The problem of controlled representation is…

This is the one comment I wanted to make about this episode that I thought wasn't already covered. That scene. Damn.

@avclub-954aef1dd01f3d3bb8e12966116cfdd1:disqus Say what you will about those movies, but they had a consistent and sometimes interesting visual style. Plus, dude woulda gotten paiiiiiiiiid.

For a second I thought, "Hey, Lucy Punch is available! She could reprise her role!" and then I remembered how much of a horrible waste that would be.

It's pretty weird that the porn actor playing Adam has a less porny name than Adam Driver.

I don't know what else you're going to be able to do then. Perhaps just watch it with someone else so you don't have to sign yourself up.

That was the intended joke, yes.

I watched House of Cards "free", and I think most of the episodes were up within maybe 15 hours, from memory.

Mitch Hurwitz should not underestimate my ability to take a solid seven-and-a-half.

@avclub-c30b17b451a2d904d45a4c895dbd4a62:disqus I kinda loved the first episode, but I haven't watched beyond it yet. But when I watch that kind of thing I tend to just switch off my critical faculties.

That Linda Ronstadt line had me in absolute hysterics.

So glad someone said this. It's very easy (and pretty facile) to bash her for her music, but even if you're not a fan of that, you have to appreciate how thoroughly she's subverting expectations of pop stars. She's dirty, funny, crass and unapologetic, unlike all the other ones who are basically squeaky clean with the…

Yeah I had the same reaction to his nomination. It's bizarre. I think it's because it's overall a weak category, but then, he somehow got in over Alec Baldwin which is just…no.
