So it turns out someone has pointed this out already. I'll show myself out.

Oscar and the (state) senator
I interpreted that scene a little differently, although i could be wrong—I wasn't paying very close attention. Angela usually calls her boyfriend a senator, and then Oscar always jumps in with the correction: "STATE senator." But this time she doesn't give Oscar that opening, so he's…

All right, I'll be the idiot. What are the plot holes, and what are the unmotivated actions? I saw this movie last night, and I really can't think of any.

If someone asked me for every adjective I could think of that could possibly apply to TAXI DRIVER even a little bit, "whiny" would not be among my answers.

Just Fine
An irrelevant question on a point of style:

Nope, just you.

Also, Juvenile's not a terrible rapper. Way more entertaining than Ja Rule.

I'm not sure this is the question you're getting at up there, but Super 16 film definitely has high enough resolution to merit a Blu-ray release. The Hurt Locker and The Wrestler were both shot on Super 16, and you can pick up a Blu-ray copy of either at your local Amazon.com.

2. Sometimes (often) making a joke would just be redundant.
3. Lists with only two items are too short.

national association for stock car auto racing, if wikipedia is to be believed.

Obviously you don't have any Black Rob in your iTunes library. That's whoa.

The greatest spy tip of all:

Times New Roman hurts my eyes

In what universe is Madvillainy a long album? Or is it just jumpy-feeling?

Jorge and Netflix,

Hey, like I said, I go see movies in theaters. I also have a Netflix account, which I use on pretty much a daily basis. (I hate the iTunes store and will never buy anything from it, but that's a different story.) I have only downloaded one movie in the last, say, five years (because it was not released in my area),…

Jorge:
"Because the only way you see it is if SOMEONE pays for it. You don't get to get into a theater if you're only kind of interested and decide halfway through whether you pay or not. Why should you be able to do that at home?"

OK, I guess I was wrong. I don't really understand your point. Please explain to me the moral distinction between these two situations, from the perspective of the financial interests of the filmmakers:

Jorge, I do understand that these other options are legal, and that downloading illegally is, well, illegal. I just don't see where the legal distinction implies a moral distinction. In fact, it seems to me that all these options are pretty much morally equivalent, which is why I think there is a problem with the…
