The artform of the AVClub gimmick account has reached its apotheosis.

You said everything I wanted to say, except perhaps:

"Grossly overrated The Descendants"? Fuck you, A.A. Dowd.

Riiight, it was JEJ's AWACS plane that rams Air Force One! For some reason I was remembering Powers Boothe and Rebecca DeMornay's B-52 that did the ramming.

Photo Hunt is a coin-operated touchscreen videogame version of "spot the difference". Which, it turns out, is quite fun to play in bars.

I personally think it's one of the sexiest movies ever made.

The trailer for this movie confuses me. Where are the rabbits?

Aw. I wanted to hear about Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

Slylandro probes, y'all.

Not so much generous, but trying to be cognizant of the complexities involved in big-budget Hollywood filmmaking.
