My favorite part of that essay was that it got me to read Gaddis finally.  Very few things equal my love for The Recognitions.

I also enjoy her movies.  Even Somewhere.  I think it's my secret longing to be idle, wealthy and constantly struggling to feel a connection to anything.  Currently I'm idle, poor and struggling to feel a connection to anything.  

You're killing your eyes, Carl.

If his only output was shitty kids movies, then maybe there would be a stronger argument for giving him shit for being in them while also being snarky about other people's work.  But those are projects for money.  The things he's created on his own have much more validity and worth.  I guess if Scott Stapp was just…

To be fair, super fans of anything are the worst people.  Take a look Jesus' fan club.

Those snooty french think they're better than me? ME?? Do they even know who I am??

You had me at Amy Acker.  Is she in some new movie or something?

Who nips the Nippler?

Jalapenno and cheese for you!

if not the greatest, at least the coolest.

I really felt bad adding A Day in the Life to my Hulu+ queue, but it was because I was tired of searching for it if there happened to an episode i wanted to see (I watch via my blu-ray and spelling something with a remote is timewasting).  Mainly, I just watched it for the Maron episode and, more recently, the Batali…

The clown show is on indefinite hiatus for retooling.

This last year I finally began my trek through Mike Watt territory.  I'd heard Brave Captain in that Natas Kaupas video via YouTube, and so went got myself a copy of Ragin' Full On.  Then If'n.  Then by coincidence, last June 16th I listened to the Sound Opinions where they talk to Watt and found out there was a song…

Well, considering it's a larger budget contemporary sci-fi/action movie, the chances are good they'll explain it all for you before the credits role.  I'm not saying you're a dummy for not "getting" the Verhoeven one, but the people that bankrolled this version probably think you are.

You had me at "BWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMM…"

Yeah.  But I'll probably still see it.

I'm probably gonna buy myself an Xbox for my birthday next weekend, so maybe I'll have something interesting to say about the first Portal or how the Halo series is going by then.  I went to see Goon this weekend.  Funny.

Shit.  The first thing I thought of when I read this article was Paul Revere and The Raiders.  Which means I should probably take a look at the Grand Casino, Hinckley concert schedule soon.

I hate it when people like things I like.  (See: Onion t-shirt re: Muppets)

I totally knew about Dark Place, like, 7 years ago.  My friend's british boyfriend showed it to me.  Then I tried to download some from Limewire, that's how long I've known about it.  So eat, you sacks of shit!  Nah, I'm kidding.  Don't eat it, you're good people.
