This may have been commented on already (eleven pages!  it's only now the next morning, people!) but….

I don't know.  She knows one thing about Jesse — he was going to burn the house down.  She also knows he was going to do this because of his murderous hatred of Walt.  And even Walt told her that Jesse could act rashly.

Hey, what's with the attack mode?  Ftr, I was using shorthand to refer to the way that many of the fans of the show have come to think of Jesse.  He has been completely guilt-ridden over things like the death of Drew Sharp and Gale, murders in which he is directly or indirectly implicated.  He's hardly a saint, but…

I am sure that somewhere in these ten pages of comments, this has been noted, but…

I can't tell if Walt really DOES care about Jesse, though it's clear he did at one point.  But was his reaction to Saul et al really out of reluctance to kill this ONE special boy, or was it just bluster?  We know he lies to Skyler routinely, that's no big deal.  And Saul?  Well, maybe after the ricin scheme being…

"apparently in disbelief that a crowd composed of wealthy socialites, who flew to Tokyo to party at the behest of a luxury brand, would be so arrogantly self-involved."

Know what else?  That was more than twenty years ago, and that dog is clearly dead by now.

Didn't it also kinda happen with another one?  Ratatoiulle, I think? 

Jesus, they let him make more movies?  I was assuming this was his second film after D&D (aka "Some Actors Who Didn't Turn Down a Free Trip to Prague").  This guy makes Uwe Boll look like… .well, I've set up the obvious joke, do I have to do everything around here?

Maybe.  But even accepting that, once Ross finds out about Rachel's feelings, I never bought that the choice between her and Julie would then be difficult for him.  Sure, he's moved on for the first time in his marriage, and he's happy — but this is the girl he's been in love with for a DECADE.  His whole adult life. …

Agreed.  You said it more succinctly, and less pretentiously, than I managed to.

Really, nobody's going to mention Cabin in the Woods?  Is it too obvious?  Did I just miss it? 
 
I think the different approaches taken by Cabin in the Woods and Funny Games to essentially the same question — why do audiences want to watch people suffer and die? — is fascinating.
 
First of all, pretentious academic…

I just never bought the reversal of the Ross/Rachel thing.  Maybe I was just too attached the original incarnation of this particular thread, but the "unrequited love of the nerd for his sister's hot friend" worked as a setup for the characters, and that just didn't lend itself to "and now she pines for him…"  Why? …

You know, not to be all pissy and political and buzzkill, but I think it's kinda uncool for AV Club to connect this to the Oz stuff.

It was expertly staged.  In that bathroom, I expected someone to get shot at any moment.  It was freaking beautiful.

That place is awesome.  It may not be super "authentic," but whenever I'm in NM I want to get sopaipillas from Garduno's.

The sad thing is, I was watching the first movie again recently for the first time in AGES, and it's REALLY FREAKING  GOOD.  I remember that summer how much people were shocked by how genuinely entertaining and crisply written that film was.

Agreed.  I was totally having a brain fart.  I meant Smiles of a Summer Night. 

I will never understand why Midsummer Night Sex Comedy doesn't get more respect.  It's a wonderful movie!  It's flawed, but no more so than other Allen films that don't get pilloried.

Wow, can't believe this write-up!  This is a classic!  "Not no more it ain't!" and "we'll need that to live" and "yes, yes, it's all a rich tapestry."  And "this lesbian bar has no fire exits! Enjoy your death trap, ladies!"
