Yup - he's at the top of my list for actors who deserve a big hit break, either in a film (this looks good) or on a really good cable TV series.

Well, it was either this, or to pick a piece of pop culture from the past 10-15 years that the public has generally settled on an opinion on (2 Broke Girls, while being wildly popular, is a fucking terrible show) and write a completely contrarian opinion piece ("For Your Consideration: 2 Broke Girls is the Most…
He gave a cover story interview to Rolling Stone about a year or so ago, and claimed that he wanted to retire from movie making at 50, and put together a new act for a big venue, aka Jerry Seinfeld … and then he made A Thousand Words.
… except that Turn on the Bright Lights and Antics are just about all home runs, in my opinion.
We all wish that … god, that series of posts was like a therapy session for that guy.
Well, you referenced The Simpsons right off the bat, so I can't see how the AVClub could pass you up …
Discoteque does have a pretty killer riff in it … Do You Feel Loved, If God Will Send His Angels, Last Night on Earth, Staring at the Sun, Gone, Please, Velvet Dress, Wake Up Dead Man … for an album considered to be such a misstep by so many, it really has a lot of great U2 songs on it. It also has two abysmally awful…

Trained, non-military shooters often aren't perfect shots, so the idea that Gotham…
Yeah, he hits the right note of Alec Guiness wryness in the role, with moments of genuine pathos (the duel with Anakin at the end of III in particular) … Completely wasted performance …
Yeah … I actually live next to a frat house (there's a large U in my town) …
I really like Samurai and Valkyrie … but it seems as if he only picks one middling sci-fi flick after another lately …
Yeah, Legos seem like that rare bit of timeless ephemera that transcends "coolness" … Who hasn't always loved Legos?
Made me think of the whole '69 Mets subplot from that movie Frequency … underrated movie, in my opinion …
Check out Ryan Adams' take on Down in a Hole.
Eh, I was kinda hoping that there would be a post-credit tease for a full-length "Man Getting Hit By Football" … I mean, it works on so many levels …
Agreed. I'd love for an AV Club Gateway to Geekery on the Star Wars books. There's so, so many, of varying degree of quality … where to go after the Thrawn Trilogy?
I still think they're pretty funny as Citizen Dick in Singles.
Evan Dando at the end of Reality Bites? Sadly, I still say I'm Audi when I'm leaving sometimes …
Ah, another good call! Again - the first two albums are so good … and then that third album is awful.
