AMC/Mad Men Commercial
So I'm sitting here watching the "Mad Men" marathon du jour, when all of a sudden, an anti-ATT commercial pops up. It's entirely a montage of angry clips from the 3rd season of "Mad Men."

Put AMC on that frustrating list of networks that do not stream their shows. If you're lucky, they'll give you an individual episode here and there, but beyond that, nothing.

Oscar talk?
"Kids Are All Right" = Oscar bait? I mean, I haven't seen it yet, but it still doesn't strike as a deep contender, as much as they weren't going to vote for "Lars and the Real Girl."

It's a fuck of an art-house draw, because it attracts two more difficult crowds:

Netflix is moving in the direction of cable channel-esque exclusivity, which runs the risk of restrictions being placed on the current business model. It's fine as is, but it put feelers out for what more there might be, which runs the risk of altering the structure.

Nothing could be closer to the original visions of film and television than poorly-synced audio and Japanese subtitles. Fight the power.

Here's a question:
Who is behind this?

The greatest achievement in this type of filmmaking was "Airplane!". At it's core, "Airplane!" is a solid disaster thriller. It is a damn good example of the movie trope being spoofed. The jokes were just layered on top of that (not to say anything wrong about the overabundance of fantastic jokes in that movie).

What is this movie about?
Horticulture? Is it a murder mystery?

In the land of truth, my friend, the man with one fact is king.

I'm also not surprised, but not because I don't think women have less capacity for comedy than men. There are plenty of arrogant, douchy men who attempt to use comedy as an excuse to ignore any insecurities they have against themselves (see Tucker Max, Carlos Mencia) and plenty of women with a genius comedic vision of…

It's almost a TRIPLE rainbow.

A kids' movie that is not the eye-fucking marathon of "Twilight" or an Adam Sandler movie that, if the commercials are to be believed, is just grown men urinating in a swimming pool. That is why people went to see "Airbender."

I'd love to hear the counterpoint call-and-response of "Goldberg!" "It wasn't me!" in the background

These movies are dumb
Everyone should skip each one mentioned above and just see "Winter's Bone."

I'd prefer Chris O'Donnell. Like they said for Javier Bardem, "Why the hell not?"

O'Neal is totally right
Taco should sue, if he had actually written the song for which he's famous.

@Tree: I saw it and appreciated it. I even have the t-shirt that proclaims that.

Definitely not singling out any particular party. I'm complaining that this will become a fucking selling point, that this will become an Issue. The catastrophe isn't the Republican party, it's the whole thing.

What's even more frustrating is that fucking D next to her name, meaning that everyone on the other goddamn side of the aisle is going to pick this up and run with it like smug babies, because that's the catastrophe we live in.
