That's precisely what he's NOT doing with Clay.

And that he'll probably introduce a Toric proxy to continue the arc that had been established before he had to let Logue go.

And it wouldn't have explained anything. With Jesus, there's a part of religion but also a part of historical fact, as there are existing…

@avclub-9cd818ea56273170b63f339aa6f34bca:disqus It won't happen. They've switched to Microsoft for product placement and Tom and Donna were basically in an infomercial last night.

There's also a new fake entertainment show à la Entertainment Tonight, created by Derrick Beckles, at 12:45pm. It's called Hot Package.

Sorry, I'm French and I didn't know about the particular connotation of evolutionism.

Talking shit about Prometheus: never not OK.

And Jack and Juliet's son was retroactively aborted.

The main difference may be that Gilligan dropped bread crumbs sparingly. Compare this to Prometheus, which is supposed to be a somewhat self-contained film, not an episode which will be followed by another one the week after.
Most of the main mysteries introduced early on in the film (and there's a shitload of them)…

Charlize Theron NSFW.

@The_Guilty_Party:disqus At one point, the guy was asked to say one sentence in French, to contribute to a promo video for the event the screening in Paris was a part of. It was one short sentence, with something like eight syllables, five or six words in all.
It took multiple takes to shoot it, as Wiseau couldn't…

Sestero is officiously in charge of the whole The Room business now, he's more or less Tommy's right hand/booking agent/babysitter who enjoys traveling all across America and Europe, meeting people and having a more interesting experience than he would have by being an extra in Hollywood blockbusters. And he has…

Wiseau is teetotal. He's mostly high on himself (and Redbull).

I'm French and I spoke with Tommy Wiseau. He doesn't understand French. Greg Sestero actually speaks surprisingly good French as his mother is French and he spent a few vacations here.

@avclub-937e75210593007e96790d1566a03f21:disqus Jesse's being threatened was a necessity because the writers had to find a way to put him out of the game while Walter was spending six months away in New Hampshire.
If the threat was purely verbal, everybody would wonder why Jesse didn't try repeatedly to escape, as he…

By the way, I don't know if this has been mentioned but Jesse gets something like two lines in the entire episode.

@avclub-d116ae13554d47530ed800aef8ed5755:disqus Even the regular "cheap" Bowmore is excellent, and is now a frequent choice for an evening drink. I'm not even sure that the older, less common versions are that superior compared to the regular one, as I tasted few differences with the 12 year old version, while other…

First, I don't hate Boardwalk Empire. I just find it has been disappointing lately. There's some heavy talent involved in this, there are some great scenes and some great episodes, it's just that it lacks something that would make it coalesce to be a great show and it's been more and more obvious since season 3.
Second,…

Short version: Boardwalk Empire has great production values.
But it also lacks personality and cohesion, despite the many talents involved. If it were a musical, it would desperately try to be Cabaret and would only be Cotton Club.
