I realize you're being sarcastic, but the first movie is actually pretty good for what it is. I can't really think of how Bay could do anything better in either concept or execution. Just re-release that shit, I say. And again, sarcasm, but technically, if not artistically, it was very accomplished—those Henson…

Didn't Eastman sell away his chunk of the turtle pie a few years ago? I feel like he should be shut out of creative ideas after making Heavy Metal: 2000 aka Julie Strain: The Animated Movie.

Producer is a very generic credit and can mean a lot of things but, yes, the showrunner is usually listed as producer.

@avclub-740bc18f68a7140f7e82b025080d8c28:disqus Mirkin seems like such a cool guy on those commentaries. Too bad his directorial efforts have sucked.

They had a fake baby (meaning Jenna Fischer was wearing a fake bump) and then Fischer actually got pregnant so the writers wrote in another pregnancy. It's all very annoying.

It's funny that Kaling was the one saying that The Office should go on and on like ER and have a bunch of different bosses and cast members (I think she mentioned Danny McBride as a potential boss) and now she's jumping ship.

Funny. Pretty. Redhead. Great body. I am in love with this woman.

If you'd written for a hit TV show (even one on its critical decline) would you go back to the AV Club? Maybe not the right audience for this question, but you get the drift. (And no offense to the other AV Club staffers, I'd love to have your gig)

It's funny that The Office just now seems to be commenting on what an incredible body Angela has (save maybe for Michael giving her the "Tight Ass" award at the Dundies).

I don't know why people continuously trot out the idea that message board commenters are representative of anything other than crazy people with too much time on their hands.

Ann Coulter and others have actually come to De Niro's defense, interestingly enough. Gingrich just saw an opportunity to get his face on the news and took it.

I like how his tongue is sticking out ever so slightly.

I remember she had a role on Sister, Sister when they made the awkward transition to the college years. She was all late '90s styled out, with pixie cut hair and a vest and a hat and, most importantly, no glasses. Didn't even recognize her until she spoke.

A few filmed in Baton Rouge (Twilight: Breaking Dawn, Battleship, Jeff, Who Lives At Home and Battle: Los Angeles for instance) and Shreveport too. Louisiana offers great tax incentives.

I think in that same Elizabeth Moss interview they said Armisen and Elliott had since broken up.

Well, considering the kinds of videos they were playing at the time, it would probably be Rod Stewart's "Sailing," but, yes.

I call it the "Penn Jillette announcer, pre-South Park" era. And yeah, Bravo used to be kinda good in a weird way. IFC and Bravo used to be owned by the same people, right? I remember being like 13 and watching edited for TV Henry Jaglom movies on Bravo. Weird time.

Yeah, the Mulcahy stuff was interesting. Can't believe how much stuff he directed. Saddened me that his movie career wasn't better, although I will defend Highlander.

Serious answer: it'll probably cover the first few years of MTV when it was still something of a ragtag operation and only broadcast in a few cities and the execs brilliantly strong armed the record companies into giving them free product.

Kinda wish Fincher was doing this since he was there for so much of the good years and was a major part of videos becoming artistically viable (and expensive). But seeing as how he didn't participate in the research for the book—despite being discussed quite a bit, I think he even has his own chapter—it would seem…
