Also, I'm loving the parity in the keeper league this season. With one week to go before the playoffs…

This Week in "Fuck You, Fantasy Football"

Fair point. I supposed I didn't consider it because it was a short.

My predictions for which ten films will appear on the most 2015 Year-End Top-Ten Lists:
Anomalisa
Brooklyn
Carol
Ex Machina
Inside Out
Mad Max: Fury Road
Sicario
Spotlight
The Hateful Eight
The Look of Silence

Anomalisa, Beasts of No Nation, Carol, Spotlight and Tangerine received Best Feature nominations for the 2016 Spirit Awards.

You came into your matchup with me last week projected to lose by 40+ points, and you had two starters that were on injured reserve, yet you still beat me 67.20-66.72. That result was so shocking, I can't even get mad about it. For the most part, I thought it was hilarious.

Yes, that was my team. It didn't end well, though. Thanks for reminding me.

Should we commemorate the end by live-blogging the remaining episodes like we used to? Are bongoes and Birdie available on Fridays?

Based on the Star Wars Week articles, the AV Club is trying out some new comments system from Disqus where you have to click on "#X Comments" and a pop-up screen appears.

First Ted Cruz, now Michaels. You Canadians have been aiming to tear down our democracy for years, and I will not stand for that!

For once, I am hoping that a piece of pop culture does not match the hype.

Happy All Saints Day-month!

Was Troy's "don't eat the crab dip" joke funny?

This weekend gave me the most free time that I've had in a while, so I took the opportunity to catch up on a lot of things, while also going to see a few movies in theaters.

To say that recent Palme d'Or winner Dheepan experiences a tonal shift during its story is an understatement, as it really ends up playing like two different movies that are each an hour in length. The first half is work of realism about three people (a former Tamil Tiger soldier, a twenty-something woman that…

I am about to see this movie in 20 minutes. Can't wait!

I like the 20 second countdown clock montage that Cinemax does before the start of every The Knick episode. It really gets me pumped to watch the show. The little factoid about life in 1900s New York they include is pretty neat, too.

It's been a good week to be a White Sox fan.
