A friend of mine once remarked that Carville looks like one of the ants from the Woody Allen movie Antz. I thought this was spot on.

You make a good point about the "Tonight, thank God it's them instead of you" lyric. That line is usually singled out in the song, and it's clearly ironic. But the rest of the song would be pretty difficult to rehabilitate.

…about how to spell "it." (Just razzin' ya'. We all misspell "it' from time to time. It's the internet!).

Kings was a great freakin' show. I'm an atheist, but I absolutely think there are some great stories in the Bible (mostly in the "Old Testament"). It's such a shame that Kings was cancelled before its time.

The Roman bowl cut has such a powerful pull on our culture that the French philosopher Roland Barthes even wrote an essay about it. I think he referred to it as the insistent fringe.

Intolerable Cruelty isn't up to the standards of the Coens' best work, but as a lightweight comedy, I think it's rather enjoyable.

It seems to me that the problem with the film is that it doesn't treat Travers real concerns with respect. It sounds like the film wonders why anyone wouldn't want Disney to adapt their work, when in fact there are a number of reasons why artists wouldn't want their work to be Disneyfied. I think this is a separate…

There are problems with Spider-Man 3, but evil Parker is actually one of its better moments. It's a genuinely hilarious Tex Avery homage thrown into the middle of the film. Raimi's Spider-Man films always made wild tonal shifts, and it was actually one of the reasons why I enjoyed them. The man was given the reins…

Yeah, it's absolutely absurd that this millionaire who because of a childhood trauma has spent much of his youth traveling around the globe training to become a vigilante who dresses up as a giant bat refuses to kill people. How ridiculous.

Don't forget David Bowie.

This guy pretty much hit the nail on the head. I liked some shitty music when I was a kid, but even when I was younger, I couldn't stand this song. The late nineties were the beginning of the end for music on the radio.

It's a well made film. It just also happens to be a somewhat pointless film. It's like a good cover of a song that stays pretty close to the original. The new band knows what made the song great in the first place and they dutifully reproduce that. But in the end people will always prefer listening to the original.

It seems like every American filmmaker has somehow forgotten how to film action. It's like some sort of amnesia virus that has wiped out the part of a director's brain that allows them to clearly and crisply focus a camera on two men beating the crap out of each other.

This show does a good job of taking the mystery of a week formula and tweaking it just enough to make it interesting. It's not breaking much new ground, but I think it plays to genre expectations in more interesting ways than similar shows. And it's got a hell of a setting. Still, if a section of Wyoming really did…

I'm going to call bullshit on the complaint that this show doesn't have enough crossover characters with the films. I honestly wouldn't want too much overlap between SHIELD and the Marvel movies. Showing us Colson and Fury is enough. I like to think that the Marvel Universe is a big place where a lot is happening…

I love when Daniel tries to cover up his conversation with his old flame from Emily and says something along the lines of "Look at how tiny these cupcakes are. It's like they were made for elves." Somehow, this struck me as exactly how Daniel would attempt to cover up his tracks. What a wonderfully idiotic doofus.

I just hope that Darabont somehow works in skeevy pilates instructors into his new series Mob City. It might be anachronistic, but it would be worth it, at least on a therapeutic level.

The rising anger in each of these responses is absolutely priceless. Thank you, AV Club, for recognizing the way that Darabont's rage went from a simmer to a full on boil.

I hope this is a direct sequel and not a reboot. That way Statham can have the honor of playing two different characters who die at the end of one film only to be brought back immediately at the start of their sequel [spoiler].

One of the many things I really love about this episode is the fact that the type of racism it depicts is relatively tame to the horrors that were happening in other parts of the country during the same time. Benny doesn't have to worry about being falsely imprisoned or lynched by a bunch of white terrorists, for…
