To be fair, the interviewer brought up the topic of penis size. And his full answer was he was packing compared to his son, but not so much compared to Lebron James, which either adds in a nice, spicy dose of racism or means he's seen Lebron James' penis for some reason.

It was the same interview where he favorably compared his penis size to that of his three-year-old son. Because nothing says sexual adequacy like outperforming a toddler in the genitalia department.

I think we had this same discussion over at the David Lynch Hatesong several months back, but yes. Yes, yes, yes. My first trip through Inland Empire is the scariest piece of art/entertainment I've ever seen, and I've watch a lot of horror movies and played a lot of horror games.

Being a Not Lesbian, I'm curious how true blue lesbians react to sex portrayed like that (I understand the graphic novel author was none too pleased). Because if you tossed that my way without a word, well … first I'd wonder why you were throwing porn at me, and then I'd wonder what porn it came from. "Award-winning

A bit off-topic, but it's moments like The Invisible Handjob complaining about vulgarity that really solidified my decision to move from lurking to commenting.

As far as I can tell, it all started with the sheer volume of C grades he distributed during the summer season. Can't say I blame him. On the whole, this was a pretty shitty year for blockbusters.

The man has been knocking it out of the park with his Photoshops lately — the image accompanying that Gravity newswire yesterday was brilliant too. There's just something about a great O'Neal Photoshop/article combo that makes the world a better place. It's truly life-affirming snark.

Granted, I'm not the best person to ask when it comes to the A.V. Club's Greatest Hits, but the only two O'Neal Photoshops that made me laugh more are:

I got the impression he was more of a Homeland's Chris Brody or Breaking Bad's Walt Jr.

Actually, I appreciate Passion of the Christ for that precise quality. Mel Gibson decided he wanted to adapt the passion narrative as genre fusion of Braveheart-style pseudo-history and horror, and dammit, he did exactly that. It really is one of a kind.

You and me both. The combination of a big budget special effects spectacle and Aronofsky mind fuckery sounds incredibly appealing for reasons I can't entirely express. I've also been waiting for a Biblical adaptation that doesn't cater to the practiced blandness most religious audiences crave and demand from their

Don't forget Petey Plane! "I've got a cold but it's okay! Do you know the Petey Plane Song!?"

"You know our words: midterms are coming."

Seriously. After last week's exceptional review, I was compelled to watch the episode under scrutiny. Now I think I might even follow the whole goddamn season just for the weekly rundown here. That drug subplot was honestly the greatest thing since Denny met Chris-R.

I found it strange that he seemed to be more interested in his itchy armpit. Could be a contender for Sad Orgasm of the Week.

Needs more stammering Derek Jacobi.

The very first thing that came to my mind upon seeing this headline (well, after Spinal Tap) was the Final Fantasy VI opera, so super mega cheers to Rowan Kaiser for bringing it up. Aside from maybe the mid-game twist and some of the World of Ruin character moments, it's easily the most memorable scene in the game

@avclub-df106893a4574bccb7bce1ff66e788b9:disqus I got the impression Lewis' nastier bits about Calormen was more cultural sniping than outright ethnic discrimination. As I understand it, it was a fine bit of entertainment among stodgy Western intellectuals to cast aspersions on those weird Easterners and their weird

Whoever they ultimately cast is going to have a hell of a time replacing Baker as the definitive Puddleglum in my mind. He had the perfect look for the part, and his balanced portrayal of the character's dourness, humor and solid dependability was endlessly entertaining.
