Bad Comparison
By comparing it to Al Green, you set the bar way to high for most mortals. If this was sung by Al Green you wouldn't have to take off your pants, your pants would come off on their own (on this scale, if it was Barry White your pants would come off and have amazing sex with you). I admit Cee-lo is as…

The ending should have made me sick. Instead it made me feel nothing at all. The heroine is made into a torture slave and the audience is left feeling something like "oh, well ok." It holds less emotional and ethical weight than "Hostel."

"nobody has done movies more safely than Michael Bay"
That's part of the Paramont statement on the incident. And I agree. Compared to Bay most other directors have staggeringly high injury and death counts. Woody Allen had 12 critical dance injuries on "Everyone Says I Love You." Lars Von Trier has personally…

Ah, what the hell.

We are missing the big picture.
Philosophers and cosmologists have theorized the whole of history has taken place to bring us to each individual moment. That means all the good and the bad - the enlightenment, cultural revolution, great awakening - indeed all of everything has been preparing for the unlikely moment…

Dam, she ruined a perfectly good blouse.

I'm just thrilled that Megaweapon had a career after "Warrior of the Lost World." I hope he got a part in the upcoming Mad Max remake.

The 90 Minute Format
I think this time they understood how to use the 90 minute format to their advantage. For the first time in a while Tim's workroom visit was not cut down to a sitcom "fabulous gay man with catchphrases." I understood why he was saying what he was saying and they really showed the real breakout…

Nice R2D2
I love how they never really came down on the side of creationism or not.

"All God's Chillun' Got Guns" is slightly racist, but boy is it a great bit of social satire and a heck of a song. Let's not forget at at the time, Jews (aka the Marx brothers) were not exactly the most welcome people in white middle class society. Nor were the Irish… Asian… oh seriously we were all a bunch of…

Absolutely criminal that you didn't mention Dumont. She's more important to the movies that work than Zeppo, who gets a mention. If any straight man ever had perfect timing, it was her. Her reactions, especially the one at the end of Duck Soup, solidified and extended the laughs. There is no way a straight man…

Other Political Stands at Dancing Events
Tracy Turnblad's brave fat acceptance stand and sticking up for interracial relationships on The Corny Collins Show.

Shakira. I could watch that video for hours and hours and hours and hours…

Fearless
When the plane crashes in Peter Weir's underrated "Fearless" Jeff Bridges leaves unscathed. He walks through the destruction, carrying a baby in a pure white blanket, but doesn't even notice anything around him. He is almost completely disconnected with the world. It's a powerful scene from a film more…

Starting to be Influential
There is a direct line from The Dixie Chicks to Miranda Lambert, Gretchen Wilson. They pretty much paved the way for the current outlaw women of country.

Bringing Out the Dead is one of the great forgotten movies for both Cage and
Scorsese. I'm glad to see you all giving it the credit it deserves.

Kilmer is a great actor who is often underutilized, but he has made some very bad film choices. Maybe that direct to video stuff is the only thing he's being offered.

Short People
Oh, I get it. Problem is Randy Newman did it in a subtler, smarter way around 40 years ago.

Remove the Daleks? Dear lord, man! The Daleks are essentially Dr. Who's mortal enemy, his Luthor or Green Goblin. (Some may argue it's The Master, but I'd rank him as a Venom or Darksied - major, psychotic, but just below mortal enemy.) In a way it's not the Doctor without the Dalek's hanging around to bother him.…

Did I just stumble into A Prairie Home Companion's annual joke show?
