I believe it was Jody Hill that was attached to direct that, but yeah this crew of people seem to want to get into some horror — if the back half of Vice Principals first season is any indication, they'd be good at producing existential tension in very average suburban milieus

I'll take it one step further and say I'd take De Palma's sense of cartoonish style and fun over Coppola's portentous dressing-up of pulp an day of the week. At least one doesn't even pretend to take a swipe at profundity with material ill-equipped to handle it.

I have to say, while I like the Rainbow Children well enough it always was a good editor's pass away from being great imo. What's not debatable though its that "She Loves Me 4 Me" from that album is one of his top-tier songs for me. Just a perfectly effortless and beautiful melody, with a fantastic arrangement and

Same — Gold Experience might not be in my top 5 of his, but it's damn near close. I've gotten a bunch of people who thought they knew what Prince was all about to listen to him with fresh ears by playing them it. The humor and arrangements and breadth of the album are something I think a lot of people overlook.

So what are everyone's favorite non-WB releases? Personally I'm a huge fan of absolutely bonkers "Gold Experience," but "3121" is pretty great all the way through, and imo "The Truth" is still one of his most underrated efforts and totally unlike any other record in his catalog…

I don't care if it didn't wind up working with the movie, I think the soundtrack album is actually a really fun little record (and also deeply weird if you stop to listen to/think about the lyrics as being Prince's interpretation of the Batman mythos). Nowhere near his absolute best work, but if you meet it on its own

That's the thing I like about "Mouth Moods" more that even his other albums — there's songs on it like ACVC that function primarily as just hilarious jokes that hit on impact that happen to be music, and then there's others that are interesting pieces of music first that also happen to be clever/funny.

I'd recommend you watch "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." He's really damn charming in that, and goes to show you just how much charisma he's being directed to keep the fuck down in the DCCU. Plus, it's just a really fun movie.

Probably because its stop-motion animation — which is weird, in that the effects that they used in it (like, for instance, the absolutely massive, robotics-controlled dragon monster thing, and all the applications of 3D printing, and smoothing over/manipulating physical things in post) are practicals could actually be

" 'That was ambitious, and it didn't all work, but it tried something interesting. ' "

I'm guessing, as he was on tour and also having a total mental breakdown, he probably didn't pay much attention at all during election season (hence the not voting), then poked his head out at his most manic and said some ignorant-ass shit based on a stunning lack of facts. It seems whatever hospitalization he

I don't find it too inconsistent — what he said was during some definite kind of breakdown, and he didn't say he liked his policies, more so that he appreciated his campaign doing something different (I guess whining on the Internet and generally being brash and rude, so yeah it checks out Kanye would identify).

This is actually the kind of dumbfuck idea I love; the kind that loops back around with its total uselessness and "Why?" factor into being kinda hilarious and a little brilliant for just existing. Then again, I'm also the person who thought it was a good/funny use of time this weekend to get baked and live improvise

Yeah, and that someone is Neil Cicierega, not this joker with his Casio.

So is this like, a dark, violent, gritty reboot of a kid's show? While I was never super into the show, I do kinda know a bit about the history of this revival. But I remember watching the occasional episode of this on Cartoon Network as a kid, and thinking that it was a little more violent than the average

He's so good in that movie, and perfectly plays his legitimate friendship with Rogan as well as…. uh…. other things…

Got it! So it's not even necessarily reusing characters, it's just the idea of knowing how the story *has* to end because of its place in continuity. That I'll agree with, and totally get — it's the reason I never got into the Clone Wars series despite people telling me it got better after the first few middling

By the end of the third episode, you're properly introduced to the last core character of the main cast, and the plotting and chemistry really start to click. I enjoyed the first couple, but I've also got a high tolerance for quirk, and in introducing the universe's groundwork, the quirk came out in full force. It's

Oh yeah, I mean I knew that that's how the timeline worked out, and I fully expect (and hope!) most of it will take place during that in-between phase (the casting alone indicates that). But I'm guessing that there will either be a flashback or a prologue featuring a young young Han (the two other Disney SW flicks

So did you enjoy Rogue One then? There were only a couple existing characters in that one, and we already knew how they'd be gettin' theirs.
