In a way, that's a good thing! My state's part of the Big Blue Wall, which means there's not much I can do to help Hillary. If I was in a pink state, I might [have to make an excuse for why I would not] do some voter registration volunteering or something.

definitely scrolling down to the bottom comments on this one

There weren't any cat burglars involved in the crime, so not sure what you're going for here

That video about an attractive young woman taking a drug that's supposed to make you horny, made me want to also try that drug.

Back when I got my first cell phone, I had "The Silence of Daylight" (the day theme from Castelvania II) has my polytonic midi ringtone. https://www.youtube.com/wat…

I was Steve for Halloween, freshman year of college, 1998. It was surprisingly well-received

Well, to some extent that has to be driven by actors not wanting to do more / demanding bigger and bigger salaries

Superior "as a movie" but less entertaining? I don't think I buy that line of reasoning. If RoboCop taught us anything, it's that movies can be smart and fun.

hah, they actually did remake Kojak

I mean, there's like 7 billion people in the world, it's inevitable that some people are going to prefer The Phantom Menace to Empire Strikes Back, that's just something we all gotta live with

No, but I'd give you "most undeservedly pretentious". It's hard to think of a movie with more obvious symbolic imagery (we'll constantly show reflective surfaces! we'll use obvious color schemes for the lead actors!), more boring slow-zooms on Bruce Willis not emoting (this is the movie that taught Willis that he

Wait, this is just the plot of Veronica Mars season 1. Are we sure Jon Benet wasn't having an affair with an aging movie actor with rage issues?

At the time, there was a media preoccupation (probably fueled by public interest, let's face it) with murder cases that had white female victims who were either young or especially attractive. This particular case was about a sexualized child, so jackpot right off the bat. (Or we can be less gross and say that child

Kind of reminds me of the two Funny Gameses.

I was really hoping for more of a Fast and the Furious 5 or better situation, but yeah, we probably skew more Seth Rogen than the Rock.

Oh yeah. Well, I guess I became accustomed to a weekly cadence of Whedon material, and this whole "maybe a thing every couple years" direction just isn't working out

Come on…I still say "pop quiz hotshot" at least once a month and it's been like 30 years

This is great, but it reminds me I haven't watched a Whedon thing since Avengers 2. We gave Joss Whedon too much money, and now he never makes us anything anymore because he doesn't need our filthy money anymore. I think we need to get a crew together and rob Joss Whedon is what I'm saying

Hey, even his work on In Living Color is kind of hard to watch these days. I mean, I'm sure Homey the Clown holds up, but Men on Film is, shall we say, dated
