I'm currently reading MADEA LIVES! by Evan Saathoff, and it's an intensely in-depth analysis of the films of Tyler Perry and how he is an immeasurably powerful auteur with a perspective unmatched by anyone else working in film. He just doesn't happen to be a very good auteur. It's a great great read so far! (I think…

POORLY. I imagine I'd start off trying the same "this statement is false" stuff everyone else is, and when that stops working I'm screwed

the climax of SPEED RACER and because I am white

my real name is my name because my dad is a huge neil young fan and I guess the novelty of having a 'young neil' was appealing to him, whereas my AVC name was actually another AVC user's idea.
I had been reading the comments here for several months but never actually signed up until the parks and rec episode that…

I want to be asked questions too, ASK ME ALL THINGS

design-wise, I think mothra is pretty much the BAR as far as kaiju go (though the design for gareth edwards' godzilla makes me THE HAPPIEST) and yeah, every godzilla movie I've seen featuring her tends to be my favourite.

writing a kaiju story, which (godzilla-specific) ones should I turn to? I'm pretty sure I've seen well over half, but some not since I was like..TEN.

I will never in my life be this good at anything.

FFFFUUUUUUCKKK OFF.

I actually got to see him on his last tour before he died, but I don't remember it being a spectacular show. his closer was PHENOMENAL but overall he was kind of more cranky than funny. I may have been at peak depression at that point though, and probably on medication that made me perpetually exhausted, so I can't…

it's one of my favourites for sure, I really appreciate how simply-but-savvy the story is. (I have never seen the sequels because I heard they shed some light on what the graboids are and NO THAT IS THE JOKE)

in fairness HE IS NOT FAMOUS ANYMORE according to him and no one

mitch hedberg, maybe? especially since the guy basically birthed the joke format seen a lot in Weird Twitter. he was CRAZY ahead of his time and died too young RIP obligatory hedberg sad post

no no no nono nononononono no OPTIMUSSSSSS

here we go wagain!

that's like saying horses are greater than misogynist aphids (I haven't seen either show but horses are cool and misogynist aphids sound just awful/just like sorkin)

it's MAYBE the best thing about my account, and by my account I mean my life.
