My number one worry about this movie is that it's going to become the Buzzfeed listicle of sci-fi blockbusters - Star Wars Episode VII: 30 Things Fans Remember From the Previous Films. Nothing would make me happier than not seeing a single character, ship, or set from the original trilogy…which, given that they've…

Damn you for beating me to a Smoove B reference, you magnificent bastard.

The two movies this year for which I was most excited were this and Pacific Rim. If someone some day makes a film about giant robots trying to make it as folk singers, I will achieve a state of cinematic transcendence.

I am happy about/upset by this news. This is a great/horrible choice, as the actress in question is perfect for the part/totally the wrong physical type. Surely, this movie is doomed/will rock, and the comic books I have always loved will be celebrated/ruined forever. Well, at least, with Zack Snyder at the helm, we…

Did you…injure yourself…on that ski slope?

I fully intend to name my first-born son Ricflair.

Come on, New York's not even in the top 5? The rest of the state must be goddamn saints to somehow cancel out all the frickin' and the frackin' one hears in NYC.

I will always remember the Offspring thanks to all the time I spent playing Crazy Taxi on the Sega Dreamcast.

I have nothing but love for this film, warts and all. The performances are all great, the sense of place is outstanding, and it instilled in me as a young 'un the importance of always saying, "Bless you" when someone sneezes, because you never know how important it might be to them. Reading this makes me mourn the…

Holy shit, I never connected the two. Thank god he lost the soul patch.

Yes, but is Sir Mix-a-Lot's posse still on Broadway?

Yeah, it kind of blew my mind open, a little bit. I picked it up because I was a huge Pearl Jam fan at the time and it had two songs of theirs I'd only ever heard in bootleg-tape-bought-at-a-flea-market form, but immediately fell in love with the Pumpkins track, Alice in Chains, Mudhoney…in a time before the Internet,…

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

Bridget Fonda was a young Enrico Palazzo's #1 celebrity crush in the '90s. This movie and Point of No Return were pretty much peak Fonda, for me.

I feel much the same fatigue over all this as I do whenever someone gets up in arms over people posting racist tweets as if it's the sign of some sort of cultural Ragnarok. Yes, there are racist a-holes on the Internet. News at 11.

I'm from Kentucky, and live in New York City. One of the first times I returned home for a visit after moving up here, I was talking to a friend of mine's father at a party and he asked where I lived. When I told him, he said, "NEW YORK CITY?!" in exactly the tone of the guy from the picante sauce commercials.

Die Hard 3 gets massive points in my book for being one of the few movies to handle NYC geography, and the time and effort it takes to navigate it, at least semi-accurately.

You know, I agree with the sentiment, but it's *kind of* old news - that's pretty much what every film writer has been saying about Die Hard for the past couple of decades. I found the stuff about Hans Gruber in this article much more fertile ground.

Yep, I came here totally expecting to see Wilson's name on the list. He also wrote for Taylor Swift, Keith Urban, Pink, and LeAnn Rimes. The guy's kind of a machine.

My favorite part, far and away, was the resurrection of the gag involving Beaker, Animal, and the Swedish Chef performing as a trio. It cracked me up when they did "Danny Boy" back in the day, and it was good to revisit that in their performances this time around.
