I forgot how much I hated him for his response to the Pulse shooting.

Overruled, traitor.

It didn't get a wide release, but C.O.G. ditched David Sedaris's tone and language and dug into the unpleasantness and weirdo enlightenment of that story in an ultimately faithful way.

That you can read about in some waiting room three months after we published it about a month-old meme!

Time Magazine has a "Viral" section? Good God, why?

It was quite funny, and sweeter than I expected. (That final scene with Molly Shannon and John C. Reily meeting on the bridge, and Plaza noticing them, was an absolutely lovely, humanist retort to repression and notions of "sin.") Which is an odd thing to say about a movie where Lauren Weedman gets Cask of Amantillado'

Knowing that Steve Bannon's a huge Strauss and Howe believer makes that generational wankery way less fun, though. History books will remember them as the eccentric inspiration for a good chunk of Donald Trump's cabinet to openly fantasize about and plan for race wars.

BULC VA IS AV CLUB SPELLED BACKWARD!

I quite like Aniston, but that's Kudrow by a country mile IMO.

"Oh oh oh, and by the way, Y-O-U-apostrophe-R-E means 'you are,' Y-O-U-R means 'your!'"

*Comment about something Issa-or-Lawrence-related being satisfying, followed by "But what the fuck, Molly?"*

I always took Gumb as the most extreme manifestation of the misogyny that (intentionally) pervades the whole thing. He despises women so much that he wants to replace them. He's not trans, nor is he intended to be. There's even a digression solely to illustrate that point.

That's the joke of Coop to me. He's the inexplicably, wholly inappropriately cast leading man who gets way too much screen time—it's just not as funny when him being out-of-place isn't foregrounded. Watching him and Katie do relationship drama isn't that out of the question.

All is forgiven if next time they wind up buried alive while paralyzed by spiders after an ill-planned diamond heist.

"Bravo, Uncle, Theta, One Two, Zero, Eight…Four. Okay, hope that was okay, uh, let me know if you wanna do it again, and good luck with the rest of the shoot."

So two muffins are in an oven. One muffin turns to the other one and says…

Yeah. It's an compelling point looking at them as a whole, but taken individually, I thought all of these (cited) films were doing interesting things and working a bit harder than just slotting into a formula.

I picked up on WHAS during First Day of Camp, but yeah, if Coop's not an obviously middle-aged man creepily chasing after preteen boys as if he's a teenager playing a game and giving off serious molester-y vibes, what's the point?

I totally called it! They let him grow his golden curls back, and suddenly he's good again.

Ridiculously expensive roller skates.
