Tyra Banks is like a much less articulate Lewis Carroll character.

I actually think the Season 2 finale would have been a really cool way to end the show.

Seconded Boi Gringo's suggestions. Manhattan, though an example of pretty much everything on this list, shows how these limitations work at their best. And Love and Death is kind of a magic point in his career - the best of both worlds between the inspired silliness of his early movies and the intellectual satire of

I kinda liked the soundtrack, and of course the oggling.

You hope Woody Allen reads this AV Club inventory? The guy who disdains popular culture and does all his writing on a 60 year old typewriter?

An inventory of egregious trifectas could be really good.

If he understood, you think he'd be less annoyed?

If you're going that way, you may as well narrow it down to the Upper East Side, and during the 1970s.

To be fair to Mr. Allen, Sarah Palin is wildly popular.

The air-conditioning is on in those scenes. They're hot, anyway, because everyone in the South is a fatass.

I'm with you, vinraith. I actually kind of judge people who didn't think that finale was stupid.

I think that good writers could easily overcome the constraints you see in a compelling way, but I also think that the BSG showed that Ron Moore has no problem with creating problems he doesn't have the answer for, and is lame at coming up with ad hoc answers.

I wasn't able to decipher a word. Of course, I don't actually speak Japanese. Maybe you had the same problem?

Got stuck on the spire of the Empire State Building during a thunderstorm.

Didn't Winona Ryder have sex with a wolf in the Dracula movie? Did I dream that?

Ok. I'm an American. My degrees are in philosophy and in physics, the hardest of the hard sciences. Thus, I feel I am especially credible in saying that philosophy is not bullshit. "Philosophy 101," at most universities, sure: bullshit.

Perhaps the movie wasn't trying to take you where you assume it was. "Whimsical," maybe, but I don't think "artsy" or "deep" is what they were going for.

The best way to understand this movie
is as the equivalent to broad, Will Ferrel-esque comedy for philosophy students. Grasp that, and your hate will melt away…

She transforms into self-esteem issues.

Instead of using my free refill to get another 20oz of soda, I fill that sucker with mayonaise. They haven't made a rule against it yet!
