I actually forgot that Rick Moranis was in Ghostbusters and can't remember if he was any good. The rest of his history is a mess, I guess Little Shop of Horrors was OK but otherwise the bigger his part the more terrible the movie. Cruise has Magnolia, Collateral and Minority Report, and all the Mission Impossibles…

See, I kind of want the opposite, something like Hannah Coulter, a grounded story of mature love, which is why I mentioned On Golden Pond, but I'm having a hard time thinking of a perfect example. Probably because films are usually either tragic or in a romcom struggle then reunite structure.

I feel like more than most movies that one could be very dependent on your mood when you saw it. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of watching it but there wasn't much to it and it wasn't really worth thinking about afterwards. But if you see it when you're receptive to it it has some pretty obvious charms. It's…

Maybe I need to watch that again because I absolutely hated that movie, I haven't liked any of Gondry's movies but that one least of all. Maybe it was just Jim Carrey, haven't liked him in anything but Man in the Moon, but I still liked Yes Man about 10 times as much as Eternal Sunshine.

Romantic comedy is my favorite genre and The Apartment is my favorite film but the romance doesn't really work for me nearly as well as the tragicomic stuff. But I'm having a hard time coming up with anything better, In the Mood for Love is a good choice, but otherwise I'd pick Love Actually over any of the examples…

I feel the opposite of that, Adele is terrible and Beyonce is clearly less terrible, but still pretty mediocre. Sturgill Simpson is quite good but this year's album wasn't nearly as good as the last one. In any event the Grammy is always going to go to some middle of the road piece of shit. The last deserving album…

That really depends on your interests, I love Archie, Sabrina was kind of crap but I still liked it better than any of the non-Netflix superhero shows, at least for the first two seasons.

I couldn't care less about awards shows, there aren't any that are relevant to my own judgement and the Grammys are by far the worst in that respect. And I don't think I've ever watched it either, but I'll watch tonight for Cynthia Erivo, same reason I watched the Tonys.

Marmite's kind of the same thing, right? Fermenting stuff makes lots of glutamates, that's why David Chang built a lab in the back of his warehouse.

VanDerWerff said basically the same thing but his review gave me some real 2 Broke Girls flashbacks. Which I guess means this will go eight seasons but be lousy.

Feinberg liked it well enough, or he's hopefully optimistic. I'll check it out because it's such a weird adaptation but it seems like it might not last long enough to grow into its potential.

You really better be posting this from the airport or you're the most pathetic hypocrite I've seen in ages.

I'm sure he'll get it pretty soon. About half the EGOT winners now are composers, Miranda has also won for writing and has two Best Musicals, which is a big deal, but I think he needs a performing award to go up with Mel Brooks as a triple threat. Actually I guess Brooks also has a best comedy album award, that would…

Arrival was the only movie I saw in the theater last year, it was OK. Like a C/C+. The premise is strong and Amy Adams is good but the way the story unfolds is infuriating bullshit. Totally lost my goodwill by the end, also I'm way over Renner.

I'm sure I said this a number of times during the first season of Glee but Popular also took a sharp turn about 3 or 4 episodes in. It was still a lot of fun but I always wanted to see more of the show they'd made the pilot for.

The Killer was the first HK movie I saw all of, after catching the end of A Better Tomorrow II on the broadcast Chinese channel. Hard Boiled was the first one I saw when it was new in one of the Chinatown theaters, and I went on to see all the HK films mentioned in this article in those theaters. That was a great…

Damn, I just bought this book a couple weeks ago, somehow it bothers me when that happens. I've heard he has better ones but this seems timely.

Try it tough guy, and then you can sit in the nice wheelchair section.

Thing is, nowadays for most people with jobs they need to be able to check their emails 24/7. If movie theaters can only cater to the unemployed they're in trouble. You all need to get the fuck over yourselves.

I thought that album was disappointing because I thought it would be like a cross between BS2000 and Mix Master Mike's solo stuff, still bummed they never even let him do any remixes, Anti-Theft Device is better than 2/3 of their catalog.
