If David Bowie isn't building a cloning machine, I'm not interested in your dueling magicians movie.

The Blind Assassin is my favorite, though as far as where to go next, I'd recommend Oryx and Crake, since, depending on how quickly you devour whole book series, it'll put you on track to be up to date when Book 3 comes out later this year.

I'm not sure how "OF COCK" fits into that post.

If someone hasn't set finding his belongings and stray body parts to the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" theme yet, it'll happen by the end of the day.

The show's had its ups and downs obviously, and there might have been other episodes (or more likely other single moments in episodes) that were more enjoyable, but this was probably the best. It really did feel like a different show than what I've been watching. Or not so much a different show as the show that the…

In one of their older episodes, a listener email pointed out that their final judgments always just come down to whether or not a movie is boring, but that actually seems to me to be the question most worth answering. I have no problem watching a bad movie that keeps me engaged.

If you gave me a 5-minute writing prompt to come up with the script to a raunchy college comedy, I would probably write that trailer word for word. It's one of those trailers where every single sentence, sound effect, and edit is a cliche for the genre.

"Skyfall" was the best Bond theme in decades. I don't think there's any competition there.

If there's one trend I despise about modern action movies it's lazy spatial awareness. That goes both for geography (even if it's a fictional geography) and movement within the space for an action scene. Considering Die Hard was been such a model for the modern action movie in every other way, you'd think more…

Prince's "Let's Go Crazy"? That was my closing song and it was fucking perfect, but I think it works well as an opener too.

If someone picks Josip Broz Tito, we're going to have words.

Did this disabled child inexplicably appear in hologram as a commentator during election night coverage? No? Then your simile doesn't hold up.

Oh Britta's in this?

I was very firm about forbidding this song at my half-Jewish wedding last year.

For Our Consideration: Is Every Black Eyed Peas Song the Worst Black Eyed Peas Song?

"A-B-C… bounce…. easy as 1-2-3…. bounce"

I think your complaints about Carlin are much more pronounced in his later years than his early ones. There's a very playful nature to his standup that doesn't get acknowledged very often (and that someone like Hicks didn't have at all). Sure, he could be too harsh or too reductive at times, but for my money the…

"Soma." There, now you're wrong.

City of Angels gets remade? (Cage is still the lead.)

Yeah, that's what happened to me. It's brilliantly written, but it's hard to keep up with at the pace it's being written. It's probably better to wait until the whole thing's done and start from the beginning, because checking every day for at best one or two new gags doesn't really work… but waiting for a month to…
