I've always kind of liked:
"Happy campers you are, happy campers you were, and happy campers you will always be."
I forget the context. But it definitely wasn't camping.

Candace Bergen and her character on this show struck me as unlikeable and not entertaining (I only ever saw one or two episodes). I can't agree enough with Donna's comments above. Murphy Brown was in many ways exemplary of the worst of sitcoms from that time—stagey, self-congratulatory, making jokes about…

At one point, I had all of their albums, either on vinyl or cassette. A few weeks ago I came across the tapes and played a few, and what had seemed like orchestra-meets-electronic-avant-garde now struck me as early 80s cheese. Definitely some good pop tunes here and there, but nowhere near as great as I thought they…

I'm holding a copy in my hands right now—haven't read it yet but the production is gorgeous, and on the surface at least it's very eye-catching and looks like fun.

I want to say that I am absolutely loving Superior Foes of Spider-Man, yet I haven't heard much about it. Are other people reading it as well? I enjoyed issue #2 more than any other super-hero story I've read in a long long time.

James Earl Jones did Alan Quartermain and the Lost City of Gold because he liked the idea of an all-expenses-paid trip to Africa. Just sayin'.

A seriously flawed movie, but unlike anything else I've ever seen. Great soundtrack. I don't know what point Haynes was making, or if he even had one. The reveal at the end? I dunno. Still, I admire the guy's creativity and unique voice.

Until I read this article, I had always heard the spoken intro as, "I don't want to go out/ I wanna stay in/ And get things done…" which makes no sense, since he'll never get to the church on time if he just loafs around home.

Accepting Bradley Cooper is the second stage. We're past Denial now.

Your avatar is GORGEOUS.

@avclub-4645aaea95ece4efbef8cb9251a5ac3a:disqus Oh it is—the same way that not wanting to stick your hand into an electric fan makes you a Luddite.

Yep, the only way I know anything about that guy is from this site. It's like the AV Club revealed to me a rare disease that I never knew people suffered from.

I feel cheated by all these stories. I spent decades believing in ghosts, sucking up every ghost story I ever heard, living in a creepy house that should have been haunted, waiting for the moment when I would come face to face with something. Nothing. Ever. You had your chance, phantasms. Now I have neither the…

Dammit, now we'll never know!

I found it dark… but comely.

I've long wanted to propose "Roman Empire Denial:" The assertion that the Roman Empire never existed, that it was INVENTED by an Italian tourism bureau in the 1800s to get the weathy Brits and others who were taking the Grand Tour of Europe. They ret-conned several temples and columns and planted them here and there,…

Zelig is funnier in my opinion, but Sweet & Lowdown is a better movie. Sean Penn is totally watchable, and Emily Morton should have won the Oscar that year. The problem with Sweet is that there's really no point to it—just, isn't it weird that horrible people can produce beauty?—and so Woody doesn't know what to do…

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Muhammad was not the only guy who married an eight-year-old in the Eighth Century A. D.

Oh, and I love Nosferatu. It struck me as a staggeringly real film—the terror is of a small Eastern-European town hit by a plague-like disease, and the vampire is a kind of anthropomorphic incarnation of that disease. I don't know what pre-WWII towns in that part of the world were like, but I'm guessing that film…
