I haven't seen it in a while, but I remember the people who liked it saying the real innovative clever part was the whole out-of-time-sequence thing, and it just made me think of Annie Hall.

This is exactly my problem. The nerd references seem aimed towards people who had Nintendos as children and haven't interacted with video games once until it was popular again.

I know Pauline Kael is a big defender of de Palma - anyone know how she feels on Scarface?

"but isn't really, because she's just trying to remember her next FUCKING LINE."

I have met exactly one person who wears fedoras and is not an epic dick.

HB=Hot Bod. So it's just ranking a woman's attractiveness on the scale of 1-10.

From what I can tell, they're the same people. The same guy would post on one section of the site talking about how you can emotionally manipulate HB8/HB9s into loving you (they were all 8s or 9s) and then go to another section complaining about how women are shallow cunts who don't see what a nice sensitive guy he is.

It had a bit of a diarrhea storm of notifications this morning, at which time it decided to remind me of every comment from the last couple weeks, but it seems OK since then.

I haven't seen the movie - how poppy and standard did they make the adaptations? For some reason the DVD covers made me think it was something more light-hearted and Out of Sight-y until I looked past the generic title and remembered it's a Thompson novel.

I've only done a little spying on either the "seduction artist" group on reddit and the Men's Rights Activists group, but there are some serious overlap, and given some of the sociopathic shit on there, I would not put this past them.

Since Robert Lincoln wasn't there for his father's assassination you're looking at "both successful assassinations".

I don't remember thinking anything of that movie one way or another (except that I'm constantly reminded of it since my sister's name is Kate and is married to a Leopold), but you've convinced me to take another look at it, you bastard.

Oh, always, I am always pro-shame.

Specifically, why can he blow up agents in the first movie but has to karate 'em in 2+3?

The most AV Clubby post is one that argues about whether or not it is the most AV Clubby post.

The shamed doesn't decide if there's shame involved. That's for the shamers to choose.

Anyone remember those episodes of Red Vs Blue when Church kept going back in time?… Just trying to reminisce.

Wow - I've probably read that review four or five times and I never noticed the absurdity of that phrase. This is like the end of The Usual Suspects.

A modern adaptation of those Pepe LePew cartoons, what with all the sexual harassment, would probably be edgy enough for a PFFR.
