He really doesn't lose anything by trying to fulfill his insane, racist promises. If he doesn't at least try, he comes off as a wishy washy liar. And if he tries and fails, he can just blame Congress for not supporting him (although so far, no worries there — they are gleefully on board with any excuse to steer this

Consider toning down the unnecessary insults. I also don't see the point in boycotting the Oscars — it's not like it's the Academy who's responsible for the ban. They're actually making an effort to recognize a great filmmaker. And I'd imagine that the president would be quite happy if his actions had the effect of

It may also be the greatest headline in AVC history.

Speak on that!

Whoa, a conservative who hates the New York Times? You're blowing our minds over here!

Civilization has always been based on conflict between progress and regress. Even in a country where it couldn't be any more goddam obvious that the good things we enjoy stem directly from the former, there will always be those who embrace the latter thanks to fear, superstition, envy, and good old fashioned

It isn't even Trump who's repealing the ACA, though. Both the House and Senate are so giddy with their newfound power that they've already voted to repeal, even without a replacement, even without a Republican president in office yet. It is, I promise you, simply because they want to say Fuck You to Obama (who has

And on top of its pervasive influence in horror, it was just such a cultural touchstone across the board. For instance, I'd already seen the vomiting scene spoofed a bunch of times before I actually saw the movie, which of course lessened it's impact big time. But my point is that, even in the 2000s, the book itself

I've never really gotten into the movie — I think I saw it too late in life, and was already too desensitized (and non-religious, I guess) for it to have its intended effect. But I read the book just a few years ago and loved it. Great horror story; genuinely creepy and unsettling.

That's already started. And it doesn't help that lower-case "trump" is already a fairly commonly used verb.

He then asked, "Who is your daddy, and what does he do?"

Yeah but it doesn't really matter what Trump specifically does, if his cabinet appointees are all approved by Congress (and they almost certainly will be). Trump could effectively retire on Feb 1, but 4 years of Perry running energy, Pruitt running the EPA, Carson running Housing, etc … these are the worst possible

I think this is the rare situation where a reboot is a pretty good idea. The original is great in lots of ways, but far from perfect — there's a fair bit of sloppy animation and lazy storytelling mixed in with some really original and compelling episodes and characterizations. A solid team of creators and performers

Seann William Scott worked consistently in fairly high-profile roles for a solid decade. His career may have fallen off now, but it lasted longer than I think anyone would have expected back when American Pie first came out.

I'm sure they want that. But baby steps. They've been on defense for a while now, but they'll be pushing for more extreme stances once the political climate shifts in their favor (ie, next month)

Isn't the whole point of the Dark Side that it allows one to shun discipline? Its power comes from giving into the basest human emotions, like fear and lust for power, and not bothering with the more challenging aspects of being a fully formed human, like fairness and forgiveness and selflessness. As I've always

This is just … I can't believe how willfully stupid these people are. I mean, how do they even make a living, or hold down a job?
