Gone Girl the movie is actually as good as Gone Girl the soundtrack; for The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the soundtrack wins.

But will she push the button???

I mean its just every classic Hitchcock movie rolled into one but its fun.

Well I know this is a nine-day-old post by now, but I'll just add - I actually thought American Honey was great (and yes I think Sasha Lane is cute but that's not why I liked the movie - there are plenty of terrible movies with perfectly cute ladies in them, after all).

Well, how else will kids be able to learn that the humpty dance is their chance to do the hump?

Did you know that Tipper Gore used to play drums in an all-girl band called The Wildcats? The only reason I ever looked that up is because of some punk lyrics (I think maybe by Bratmobile) - "Tipper Gore's surf band never got to say 'fuck.'"

I hadn't thought of it like that… I forget what the deal was with the actual time machines (if they were built by humans or machines, how many of them there were, if there was a limit on how many could possibly exist, etc.), but if those limitations were intentionally in place as safeguards, then surely the machines…

It doesn't make sense in the first one, either. Like, if the terminator were built entirely out of organic matter - and if only organic matter could be sent through time - that would be one thing, but it's clearly a metal machine with organic stuff wrapped around it. So with that in mind, couldn't you also, like, pack…

I applaud you for your sacrifice. Or as we used to say in the 90s, "Whoomp, there it is."

This year I've been watching a bunch of Ghibli films for the first time: Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, The Wind Rises, Only Yesterday, and My Neighbors the Yamadas (yes, I've already seen Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke; no, I haven't seen Grave of the Fireflies yet). I was…

I sorta-randomly follow some hardcore Taylor Swift fans on social media, and the combination of adoration, devotion and obsession is both sweet/endearing and unsettling. Sometimes people post photos of themselves getting to actually meet Swift, and they just look overwhelmed with happiness.

I know this isn't a new complaint/observation, and I know that this kind of thing is standard Hollywood practice, but I just want to mention how silly and frustrating it is that films are so compelled to cast exceedingly beautiful people as ordinary-looking folks, even when the roles seem to explicitly require someone…

Wow, that second paragraph really threw me for a loop.

Even though I'm one of those people who takes pictures with ancient film cameras and who'll spend extra time and money to see a film on actual celluloid rather than DCP, I still think it's OK to call films "films" even if they're technically videos.

They cancelled the show because he associated with a bad person and made a bad gesture?

Do you want to kill more zombies? Sure, we all do!

What about Tony Randall? Mary Tyler Moore?

Also I think Scrooge bangs like ZERO chicks in the entire story. That's beta as fuck.
