Prometheus blew chunks, but to be fair, the LOST finale was great.  As was about 95% of the rest of the show.  It's hard to know how to apportion credit and blame with a movie, as you never really know whose script was shot, or what rewrites were made, or how much the director was doing on set.  But it is hard to

But she did have a great ass…

Trying, but I guess I failed.  Honestly, I thought MIAMI VICE was simply Heat Redux, in terms of hokey style and posing and ridiculous nonsense.  And PUBLIC ENEMIES just bored the pants off me and I never finished it. But it was okay, because those pants needed to come off and go into the wash.

Yeah, totally my bad.  I've not seen Boardwalk, but I was confusing Winter with Graham Yost, who is a very great writer.  For some reason I was thinking Winter also wrote on From Earth to the Moon and Band of Brothers, etc. etc.

Best part of the trailer were the credits.  If it's written by Terrence Winter, I'm giving it a shot.

Night also rewrote NEW YORK MINUTE and LIZ & DICK. He just keeps getting better with age.

I'm not usually the guy to come on and piss in the pool (at least not this way), but I think this may be the most lauded movie in history that I couldn't stand. I found it ridiculous and poser-ific all the way through, and then I felt totally ripped off at the end when DeNiro and Pacino didn't kiss.  This one ruined

Didn't Mike Myers already put the definitive spin on Hard Knock Life?

This was the first episode that made me think this show might have longer term potential.  At the moment, it's my "when I'm bored and nothing is on (and I don't want to go online) show."  As such, it's always in danger of being jettisoned, and it normally backs up on the DVR while it waits for boredom to strike.  But

"Ewwww!  What have you been doing with this purse?"

"I'm just saying, if someone offers us 50 bucks for the beyotch under the umbrella, we're taking it!"

"Are you sure this is better than a lemonade stand?"

I went through this whole thread and it made me feel very old that no one used TWINS 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO!

Hodor.

You are right that he doesn't have much to do with these shows, but that's a little bit of my point. He slaps his name on stuff that is crappy, and he does it willy-nillly. That is really why his name on a show now is somewhat of a red flag for me. He must hear something he likes in order to back these shows, but

Well, that's the deal you negotiate ahead of time.  You don't wait for your show to raise their profiles, but rather sign them to a 7 year deal before you start episode one, with built in years off.  There are some great actors in the show, but very few were big time when the show began. I find it pretty hard to

In every society they have shown us, the rich people live damn fine, and the poor people are all in some form of bondage or another.  It's not like the slave owners and wealthy people of these desert cities are not also brown.  Everyone, for the most part, Dany has encountered is brown.  She's in Brownsville.  It

I know what you mean about offensive.  I know that the idea that white Abe Lincoln freed black and brown people in the United States has always given me the heebie-jeebies.  I mean, pay attention to detail, Abe.  Find a brown guy to free them for you, or else why bother?  If you cannot free people in a politically

Theon torture is the "Oh, my dragons!!!" of season three.  I heard last year that Dany was hardly in Book 2, and this year that Theon was barely in Book 3.  I think by forcing major characters to just be on screen regularly but doing nothing during the seasons when the books give them no story, they do a disservice to
