BAH! They'll never overcome the novel's inherently flawed structure and disappointing final showdown! Bah I say!
Also, why bother remaking this when you know you're not going to be able to replicate the creeping terror of the original with your modern smash-cut editing and lack of Tim Curry
(Herzog, with Nicholas Cage's mother, listens to a tape recording of Cage being eaten by alligators.)
"Oh — oh my god. Oh. Oh, god. Mrs. Coppola, you must never listen to this tape. It — oh, you can hear his flesh tearing. This tape is — I'm not going to play this for the audience. And you must promise me that you will…
Part 2, maybe
Like all Showtime shows, Dexter was just one season of great, well-planned television, followed by what I assume is non-canonical fan-fiction. See also: Weeds, Homeland, The L Word, Dead Like Me, Masters of Sex
Well, we don't see him teach much, except in scenes where he's preoccupied with his cancer diagnosis, and the only result of his teaching that we see his Jesse, who was not a shining example of Walt's abilities as a teacher. But, if I was going to sum up Walt with one character trait it would be "pent-up resentment",…
At first when celebrities start coming out it was always a surprise, and then for a while you got used to it, and then they didn't really 'come out' anymore because there basically wasn't a lot of hiding in the closet anymore, so now it's surprising again!
It is kind of weird in hindsight. I think in context, it's the early 90s, and if you make a new superhero it has to be either a Cable-type freak of musculature holding a gun that wouldn't fit in the backseat of my car, or a Psylocke-type with DDD boobs, a 12-inch waist, and with her butt somehow always towards the…
Only in that I'm surprised we got here! Monkey Joe for president

That was all completely true, though. I'm not maligning the current comic. Marvel really was embarrassed about Squirrel Girl through the 90s and most of the 00s.
Squirrel Girl was a regrettable creation of a great artist from the 60s working in the early 90s. For many years she was nothing more than a punchline in comic book letter columns and trade magazines, a character who had exactly one appearance in an Iron Man annual that nobody liked. A few years back Dan Slott brought…
YES. This was definitely a deal-breaker. Also in a later season he gets laser tattoo-removal, which takes about five seconds of montage.
I think I was reading televisionwithoutpity reviews at the time, and they referred to the pills Mahone was taking as 'smarty pills', which I thought was a genius idea — that only by taking mind-enhancing drugs could he have deciphered Michael's tattoos and been such a thorn in his side. When it turned out to be…
Back in the day when I had way too much free time, I ripped all my Prison Break Season 1 DVDs (because this was also back when I was all about the physical media), ran them through Adobe Premiere, and edited out all the b-plot (in which the lawyer lady tries to untangle the conspiracy around Lincoln's conviction, and…
Aww, this is a bummer. There's not a lot of magical realism on TV, so this show was pretty special. I guess I'm partly to blame because I didn't hear about it until this year.
I'd tend to disagree. Same's true of history — if it's not contextualized and analyzed, then it's just a list of names and dates. It's on us to know whether the source we're getting our news from is good or bad, and that's where the whole system's been breaking down lately.
I would argue that good journalism provides analysis and is not just a reporting of dry facts. If the conclusion of that analysis is that our president is a kleptocrat, that's not necessarily an indictment of Propublica's work.
Truly, it was Smashmouth's finest hour, an apex from which they could only fall
