I'm one of the people who hates this feature, although there have been one or two that I've enjoyed. But, for me, what makes a real rage-inducing Hatesong entry is when the interviewer is all, "Yeah, totally, bro, high five!" about everything the hater says. I'd be much more into this feature if the interviewers

Andrew Bird being a notable exception.

OK, so, I saw the last two Twilight movies in the theater. The penultimate one, my date and I played a drinking game in which we had to take a shot every time Jacob was shirtless, Edward was a dick to Bella, or…you know, I can't remember the other criteria, because just based on those two, alone, I was three sheets

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

Like the song, don't like the song, but there's no denying the chord progression touches a sweet spot in the human brain, as evidenced by the fact that it's used in dozens of hit songs from the past few decades (Google Axis of Awesome's "4 Chord Song" for proof).

And what about those Liverpool idiots just singing about how they want to hold your hand over and over again?

I have two answers for this: Spoon and Kurt Vile. Nearly everyone I know whose music taste I admire and/or respect, along with seemingly every member of the press, thinks these guys are amazing, but I have tried and tried (particularly with Spoon - it's really been a thing for a long time) and I just can't find

Ha! I should have known xkcd would have a window directly into my soul.

The most recent example is "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye. YMMV in terms of liking the tune or not (especially given its ubiquity for a while), but there's no question that Kimbra's verse absolutely elevates it, thematically by totally turning the original narrator's perspective on its ear.

One of my favorite movie scenes ever is the one in Apollo 13 in which the NASA engineers have to figure out how to make a square peg fit into a round hole (so to speak) to get the CO2 filters working using nothing more than, like, some socks, a plastic bag, and some duct tape…AND THEY GODDAMN DO IT. That never fails

This article could have been one paragraph long and gotten the same point across. It'd still be not funny, but at least it'd be economical about it.

The Simpsons is still on?

I had a great time seeing Chvrches live the first time, but the second time was less thrilling, because it was pretty much exactly the same show. I love their music, but this type of thing, there's so little that's variable in performance that there's not really a reason to experience it more than once during the same

Reading this news led me to watching the final scene of Warrior, again, and now I'm crying at my desk. THANKS, AV CLUB.

I want to go to there.

The thing that turned me off to Heroes the last time was Kring's insistence that he wasn't a comic book guy, didn't care about comic books, didn't read comic books…coupled with the show's tendency to rip off comic books directly left and right, up to and including the main plot of the first season being so heavily

I should've known someone would beat me to this comment! *shakes fist*

I mean, this

I think this may win the award for the headline I least care about in all of AV Club history. And, of course, I had to come in here and comment about it, because that's how the Internet works.

Please, please, pretty please let Snoop Dogg play Jacob Marley.
