And A Hard Day's Night has violence!  George and Ringo take a really bad fall and get trampled by 50 girls during the opening credits!  It's even worse than all the others because it's pretty clearly unscripted, real violence.  And I bet some of those girls didn't just want to hold their hands, if you know what I…

@avclub-d542a3419c3ad57206a96bcc86155ebc:disqus — you're right, I forgot about the behind-the-scenes factor.  Although, now that I think of it, didn't they deny that that's why they killed off Jimmy?  Seems like I remember that there was a rumor but nobody ever verified it. As for Manny, I thought maybe he took the…

I agree, and that sort of reminds me of my biggest problem with this show.  Everybody says it takes balls to kill off major characters, but sometimes I think it's just abrupt and pointless.  Yeah, I was one of those who was pissed they killed off Jimmy; even though I understand that's where his arc was headed all last…

Yeah, exactly—I thought it was pretty clear that Gillian had nothing to do with it because she seemed to accept it at face value when Harrow said he was going to "see a friend" (wink wink). Apparently it's a rule that that phrase has to be used in every gangster film/show as a euphemism for "kill some guy," but…

Upthread we have a guy turned on by miscarriage blood, here we got a guy wishing his mom was hot enough to fuck . . .  We have some good reasonable discussions for Terence Winter to read this week!

Sassy was the best teen magazine EVER.  Kurt Cobain was a genuine fan *and* he gave them exclusive interviews *and* he and Courtney Love did a cover story once.  I still remember this goofy sidebar, though, that listed the ways that "Kurtney" and "Billary" Clinton were just alike and thus told us teens that the new…

I meant it to come across as a joke, because of course I know you can't see my ass.  You thought I genuinely assumed you were complimenting my ass and I offended you by being faux-conceited about it rather than grateful?  I thought you were making a funny joke, so I responded with one of my own.  Because, again,…

Why did you edit to call me a bitch?  What did I do to offend thee? I thought we were having a good ol' time joshing around in our AVClub-patented sarcasm and self-deprecation as we reflected on the days that are no more. You get that I'm making fun of the goofily unoriginal attitudes and tastes of my adolescence,…
