The Packers lost and then my wife turned this on and… well, the Packers lost.  Y'know? Was this awards show even really on? I figured it was just a fever dream of what Hell looks and sounds like after you have a stroke and died because the Packers lost. Sigh. The Packers lost. Of course the Golden Globes would come…

Rodgers… not yesterday… I'm sorry… I can't… whaaaaaaa

Masturbation working good over here

Opposite of this guy is true.

I wonder if the TV and Book rights to the name LA Noir are the reason Rockstar misspells the game as LA Noire?

Tasha,
I agree with your assessment of Greenaway and sex… But should you revisit Cook again you'll see it as an exception. I do at least. The sex is charged, erotic and, to me, the scene where she makes the cook reveal what he saw of their semi-public lovemaking is one of the most beautiful and affecting things I've…

Amazing Screw Top Head got here first. Props to Mignola. Also Aqua Teen's opening. Lincoln revisionism!

"I'm disabled!"

Glibby glop gloopy nabby nobby —- oh fuck it.

IT Crowd for me too.  The absolute highlight has to be the one with the Gay musical.  The pathetic "I'm disabled" line appears in my head way too often.  Also, St. Vincent, Kimbra and Community.

In fairness, she is AWESOME at pounding on keyboard keys.  Actually having her write "www.google.com" is a weird bit of over-writing too.  Oh, and that clip was really awful. Honest to real newspaper not a blog.

Come on…
That was a chicken, not a child, and you know it!

A cliche based on fact … and especially Hollywood executives.

I'm starting to think that age might play a role in whether you fall on the Frighteners = Yawn and Frighteners = Awesome divide.  Oh AVClub… I keep getting older, yet you somehow stay the same age.

Aside from Heavenly Creatures I agree with your opening paragraph.  The 2nd paragraph has one thing I agree with, Bloom, but in fairness Jackson hadn't seen Blooms all of Bloom's subsequent films and had no idea how dire things would become.

I feel like I should be getting the "oft fucked butt" reference here.  To me Andie and Mimi aren't comparable at all.  Both are sort of memorable but to me Andie is memorable for ruining movies and Mimi is memorable for having a weird facial expression all the time —- and big hooters that I remember enjoying in a…

Trini also likes being called

Again I agree with Lobsters… my head hurts. The icicle thing was a surprise but it was a bad one.   I never saw the movie, does Jackson "fix" this or is he true to the book?

Somehow you missed Heavenly Creatures though?
That's the one that got my attention.  Then I sought out the crazy early stuff - liked it a lot too.

I agree. I wouldn't go so far as to say "stinking pieces of crap" but I also wouldn't call this a "secret success" - the movie, for me, is just there.  Maybe Nathan is right about the CGI seeming fake, and that being the problem, but for me it's the plot problems and failure of the story that ruins what should be a…
