Having Marge say that pretty much justified the entire movie for me.

Anti-comedy is at least comedy. CONSIDER THE HARDWICK HATE FEST RE-UNBALANCED.

If we're drawing from the Seinfeld well I'd say the obvious choice is Mr. Peterman. I don't think anyone could nail that strange mixture of gravity and nothingness that we've been led to believe President has than John O'Hurley.

I imagined this is as the latino "street tough" from Seinfeld. Was I correct in imagining it that way?

HE'S JUST AN OLD SOUL!

I couldn't get into it. 11/22/63 is definitely the only King book I've REALLY enjoyed since the turn of the century, save his consistently terrific short-story collections.

The way Stephen King writes the kids, the old people will probably love it.

I could have done without the "Earth is rupturing apart" stuff, but all of the other stuff I found very entertaining in a tragic and unsettling way.

"What of my refusal to inform myself of the details on the thing I am strongly specious of?! WHAT OF IT, SIR!?"

Vin Diesel: "WE NEED MORE NOS4A2!"

Rabin must have held out for too much for it.

I'm partial to Paul F. Tompkins reacting to talking junkie shots, myself:

"That Hyder doesn’t realize the 'Elysian Field' is Hell when it starts to smoke probably isn’t testament to his intelligence."

Robinson. :'(

[VanDerWerff stands upon a mountain of dead critics]

Holy shit. It actually plays "That's What I Like About You" over the "starring" montage.

I still think they should hire back Leonard Pierce and make him do these and ONLY these kinds of reviews as penance for his transgression and call it "Leonard Work."

"HEY! DOWN IN FRONT!"

ONE STEP FORWARD AND TWO STEPS BACK
NOBODY GETS TOO FAR LIKE THAT
ONE STEP FORWARD AND TWO STEPS BACK
THIS KIND OF DANCE CAN NEVER LAST
