YES! I hope this movie has the same warped kinda accurate, kinda surreal depiction of high school life that series had.

I went with a couple of friends to go see They Might Be Giants at Terminal 5 for the last night of their tour. It was predictably awesome. Jonathan Coulton was the opener, and Suzanne Vega and Robin Goldwasser made appearances. So yeah, good weekend.

It actually is one of my favorite comedies of the past few years. It was pretty dark and mature, but also had a lot of room for Jim Carrey to combine his slapstick physical humor as well as his dramatic chops. And besides that, I think it was actually pretty emotionally resonant and sweet under its cynical exterior.…

I miss how for some inexplicable reason it was listed not as a "Movie" of "Film," but instead was an "Artist."

Well, not much to do with the episode, but there was a Good Burger mention, so I feel like this is a semi-appropriate place to share this:

I have pretty high hopes for it. I thought it initially looked really shitty and dumb, but then realized it was written and directed by the guys behind MTV's Clone High which is a master class in really smart but stupid humor.

Ponce! You're a genie! For my first wish, I wish my dead friend Ponce was alive again…. PONCE!

I guess for me what it comes down to is that Super always seemed like a niche, indie film that had no pretense of being a mainstream comedy. While O&R might not be as shocking,uncompromising or dark empirically, I think it was much more subversive and took more guts to try to sell this to the huge mainstream audience…

It's funny, I was also rewatching Eastbound the other day, and was just thinking how perfect the song choices for that show is. Seems like Hill just has a knack for picking the right song for the right sequence.

No, not at all. I came away from Dragon Tattoo loving the score, and I'm not even a Reznor fan. Better than Social Network in my opinion. Since it was a "thriller" for lack of a better word, he was able to make the music just tense enough without boiling over like an expert. Also, the way he incorporates found sounds…

Me too. This is one show that hit the ground running and came pretty fully formed and well realized. Not even the celebrated Moral Orel had that going for it. I can't wait to see what they have in store for season 2.

You are right. Drozd IS God. That man is a very underrated musician.

Yeah, there were some pretty great costumes and everyone was so friendly. Pretty diverse group of people too.

I think the answer he was looking was "YYYEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!"

No they definitely aren't. I just saw them in NYC on Halloween. They played for nearly three hours, and were one if the tightest and most entertaining live acts I've ever seen. Also the crowd was awesome.

Sound. Going down.

Oh how I would love to see that. VDW playing the straight man to O'Neal's witty rebel, ready with snarky one liners. Just add a laughtrack and dick jokes, and BOOM. CBS sitcom.

It's weird, I could never picture like O'Neal or VDW like hanging out together, or even really talking to one another because their sensibilities and main contributions to the site are so different… I'm getting a kick out of them working together on these though

Me neither. I'm pretty sure, save for an exception or two from all the other networks, I only really watch NBC with any ind of consistency…

I had the exact same experience as Noel. ALL of my new wave sounds fucking great on vinyl. Elvis Costello, Oingo Boingo, Devo, etc. all sound so much fuller on vinyl. And Prince really pops like he doesn't any other way.
