To be watchable Don doesn't need to be "good", he needs to connect to some unexpressed part of the viewer. Most people live relatively "good" but boring lives. The down side of this is that we don't have a way to express those other sides of our humanity, the impulses we suppress for one reason or another. The…

How bout we charm Felicia Day shirtless instead of some drunk guy.

"Oh shit, the oil's coming right AT me!"

Just go for broke…
So when are they going to make the Crank of chick flicks?

IT WAS ALL A DREAM!!!

A jump cut is what you can find in the opening credits sequence as Louie is eating the pizza. I know its on purpose but it always bugs the fuck out of me.

I will punch you in the fucking face.

Now coming to AE…Stephen Root Begins

You're right, I lied. I slept on the movie and now I think that Inception is really the proof that we are seeing the great director of this generation develop and push his own boundaries and the boundaries of the big-budget movie. Nolan has managed to make a film that will make a ton of money (it should be the…

Fuck you Broyles. Fuck you in a way that you are uncomfortable being fucked.

Just saw it.
This movie is very good. Very good.

I really liked Joan of Arcadia. I remember that it got cancelled on a big cliffhanger. Anyone know why it was cancelled?

I love this show so much, but in a very specific way. It's like I can't believe it is really on television. It's too weird. Too personal. Too vulgar, both in the sense of it being so crass and in that it is so relatable to real people.

Depressing Elfin Nightmare Lady?

I went to see Avatar as a part of a big family outing with my girlfriend, her mom, her two uncles and their wives. After the movie, at dinner, everyone was gushing about the movie (I was trying to think of nice things to say, like 'The effects work was really innovative') and girlfriend's mom exclaims, "It is just…

The only pop culture thing that I like that my girlfriend hates is the AV Club.

Oh my, Truth Teller! What the fuck will it give birth too?! Are we a mere nine months away from Smell-O-Vision?

The reason Obama was elected is because he had a great "story". There is a reason his memoirs sold so many copies. He has a great life narrative and that includes his family and, yes, his race. It is very compelling and he also tells it very well. I think this is directly connected to why the media treated him…
