I thought Cage was great in Leaving Los Vegas.

It sounds like you're really saying you LIKE most of the people in the Lord of the Rings movies except…let me guess…whats his face who played Frodo and Liv Tyler.

It was Romans who killed Jesus, and as such its pretty funny how after the (Roman) Catholic Church came into being they took to calling the Jews "Christ Killers".

If you want to call the Oligarchs "lizard people" that's OK by me.

Speaking in purely RELATIVE terms it actually makes more historical sense that a woman SPY would be good with weapons because it would be a 'secret' skill.

It just amazes me that in recent times a new version of the 3 Musketeers seems to come out about every other year.

Since Good Wife rarely features  happy outcomes for a client that aren't double-edged swords, I have to think this week's case is setting us up for a reversal in  future episodes where the law firm will have to deal with the messy reality that many  of the pro-bono clients will be guilty.

If Shakespeare had written plays as critical of the Tudors as he was critical of the earlier English monarchs he would have been in big trouble.

You tell me

If the most recent episode of "Two Broke Girls" merited a "B" - this episode should have gotten at least an A+++++

No film has done that brilliant book justice - yet.

The saddest thing about GWTW is how it reaffirms a racist POV.
