Bullhead is one of my top five favourites from that year. I guess I should get around to rust and Bone, it's on Netflix.

Have you seen the director's other film, A Prophet?

I hate the promo for that new show about the family of doctors with an orderly for a son. The song at the end seems so misplaced and its just plain terrible. I wish it were on YouTube so I could share with friends.

One of my favourite scenes of 2013.

(I was signed into my other Disqus.)

That long, creeping shot of the meth cook reminded me of the shot from A Field In England where, after a minute of screaming, the man emerges from the tent with a rope around his waist, lurching forward like a deranged man.

The scene in that church last week had some of the most delicious composition I've ever seen on TV.

I'm pretty sure Tom Cruise and the Church of Scientology had her deleted after the divorce. The woman we see now may look like Katie Holmes but if you hook her up to an e-meter you'll notice she has zero thetans and is therefore a shell of a human.

The Go party would be excellent just to see Timothy Olyphant.

Smith didn't get into weed until recently, actually. He subsequently gained more weight and began producing even dumber shit. Helena Handbag… really?

I thought it was a woman's and now I'm confused in the pants.

For sure. Hardcore Will Never Die But You Will went from a B to an A within the first dozen spins. It's now my third favourite.

I can get behind that. And in front. And underneath. Etcetera.

Not to mention generous, to boot!

Last night I saw a trailer for this that said something like, "The critics are raving," followed by 4 or 5 quotes from Pete Hammond, so this grade doesn't surprise me. (Not that I would have expected much out of a film with Selena Gomez and Brendan Fraser.)

Fuck yeah, Tom Waits.

Wasn't Lennon a huge asshole, though? And I've even heard he was abusive to the women in his life. If true, it kinda makes all of his peaceful messages and lionization hypocritical bullshit. Macklemore, who I don't like as a person or artist, probably isn't going queer bashing in his pickup truck in his spare time.

Quick digression: For a long time I've thought your avatar was a medieval mask or helmet, and just now realised it's an ass. May I ask whose ass?

And now that I think of it, it's really not the same thing. I'd like Gillian Jacobs to be in charge of wardrobe.
