Neither Pedrad nor Slate is hotter than Wilson. Thinner, sure.

Oh, and I would totally go to a Bulls game with you, Scott.

I wasn't surprised by all the brackets, even if as another sports *and* pop culture junkie I found them personally unnecessary. Frankly I'm surprised by all the Simmons fans in the comments; I was shocked to see this interview pop up here and assumed most of the comments would revolve around people asking "Who cares…

Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?

@Jimmy James: I'm fairly certain that "two hundred pages of a great science fiction novel, followed by forty pages of how-do-I-end-this?" could describe a majority of Dick's work. Ever read "Time Out of Joint" or "The Man in the High Castle"? Dude had a problem with endings.

@Jimmy James: I'm fairly certain that "two hundred pages of a great science fiction novel, followed by forty pages of how-do-I-end-this?" could describe a majority of Dick's work, at least the ones I'm familiar with. Ever read "Time Out of Joint" or "The Man in the High Castle"? Dude had a problem with endings.

Also, you explore the notion that cop and criminal are two halves of the same person. See every cop movie ever made for other examples of this!

Clearly it should be "might as well take place anywhere." However, your second suggestion makes no sense whatsoever. Take out that cityscape part and you get "Director Tony Scott and screenwriter Brian Helgeland have replaced the original's exquisitely observed sense of time and place with cutesy bits of business…

Lester and Eliza… oh wait, there they are.

He was never officially killed off; they just stopped using him and at one point made reference to "Marvin Monroe Memorial Hospital," I believe in the Who Shot Mr. Burns Part 2 episode. There was a relatively recent episode (the one where Marge writes romance novels) where they actually brought him back. "Dr. Marvin…

The History Channel is now using the slogan "Made every day" as an excuse to run things that don't even remotely qualify as history. Although it's not nearly as weird as when The Nashville Network went from showing Grand Ole Opry and Dukes of Hazzard 24/7 to showing pretty much any mediocre 1970s and 1980s TV show…

When you have a trailer that long
And it's for a comedy, and you don't get ANYTHING funny into it? The only other option is that this isn't a comedy. Remind me why I might want to see a bunch of funny people not be funny for two hours.

A four-year old film "hasn't aged well"?
You might have just said "Sin City was a piece of shit." Which it was.

Time is getting confusing when it comes to Daniel. Does he go back to the Dharma days to try and stop Charlotte's death? Or has he sort of "always" been there, given that Charlotte remembers him? One of the big mysteries which may not ever be fully answered and just will have to be inferred is how exactly the…

But if this movie is set in the 40s
How is Tarantino going to fit in all his pop culture references? Is he actually going to do some research to make them chronologically accurate?

Ouch
On the other hand, I'm not terribly surprised. While I love "Awake is the New Sleep," and while a handful of tracks on "Ripe" are pretty decent, it seemed like he was starting to lean in kind of a stupid direction, lyrically speaking. (There's an entire track on "Ripe" where he basically paints himself as some…

Garbage day!

Even Satan himself couldn't resist this angel food cake
It's a good buy! And so, goodbye! From Mr. Good Guy, Gene Shalit.

No, no, it's heartwarming
Didn't you hear the music? And the announcer? It's the feel-good movie of the year, because everyone can relate to a rich, successful womanizer who learns to love in order to shack up with a gorgeous Hollywood actress.

Yeah, that was never as big a surprise as they might have wanted it to be. But they revealed he was returning at Comic Con, so maybe it was never intended to be that big of a surprise either. (Best part of that Comic Con in hindsight was Perrineau saying, jokingly, that he thought Locke was the guy in the coffin…
