oops…

Yes!  That's the one I came here to post.  I saw it live when I was 16 or so (at the end of a pretty meh episode), by myself, described it to all my friends, and have been keeping an eye out for it ever since (same Netflix Instant disappointment you suffered, e.g.).  In fact, the first thing I did when I opened this

I don't think you're critiquing Primary Colors from a fair place.  You're disappointed because it doesn't examine the issues that YOU are engaged with, even though those issues don't have anything to do with the subject — which is not "Contemporary American Government, Issues in," but rather politicians (one in

If I remember correctly, it was the first (or one of the first) episodes filmed, but aired as the Season 1 finale. And it was actually Larry who leaned over and said, "You saved my ass," and Hank was magnanimous, acknowledging that he'd turned into a moron in the past years, and telling Larry that he should use that

Disappointed in posters, humanity.
So, we can just delete this entire comments section, right? This is pretty embarrassing shit right here.

"There Will Be Blood"
It's basically a Marxist parable, while I'm more of a small-government type who thinks my fellow liberals give the free market way too little credit. Nonetheless, it's a brilliant movie, and one of my favorites.

@ Stabby: First, there's no evidence that Ray Lewis stabbed anyone; he's guilty of lying to police about the incident, but probably nothing more.

South Park did it better…
"Picard is able to save the Enterprise and make peace with the remaining Tamarians at the last minute, speaking to them in a way they can understand."

Thanks for the heads up on Sword & Poker 2. The first one was awesome — certainly way more awesome than it has any right to be given the premise.

Maybe this is a distinction without a difference, but I don't mind the more typical political asides. Shots at unilateralism or a sitting President are more akin to policy preferences than, you know, a world-view. A critic's throwing capitalism under the bus every chance he gets seems as out of place as would by

Am I the only one. . .
. . . who finds Nathan Rabin's not-infrequent pot-shots against "capitalism" to be distracting and awkward? Don't get me wrong, I love him as a writer and don't care if he's a leftist, but for some reason it doesn't sit right with me when a reviewer's political ideology so clearly influences

Let me save you some time.
"What the fuck, man? I didn't do nothin'! I was just . . . hey, aren't you Steven Seagal?"

I was surprised. . .
. . . that they didn't reference the allegations that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990. Mind you, I'm not saying that Glenn Beck DID rape and murder a young girl in 1990, and it's important to acknowledge that we don't have all the facts. Nonetheless, we have to ask these

Apparently, Eastbound & Down > South Park.
You have to be TRYING in order to come up with that kind of oversight. Seriously, no room for SP in the Top 30 of the decade?

"What is the virtue of a proportional response?"
It should be noted that the above question (and ensuing debate) is derived directly from the Sorkin-penned movie "The American President."

Wilted speaks the truth: "Abbey Road" needs to be on this list. "Sgt. Pepper," too, but to a lesser extent.

Three friends and I went to see The Thin Red Line our senior year of high school. The movie was an interminable bore, but what made it notably awful in retrospect was that, between buying our tickets and getting to the diner for a pre-show lunch, we were offered a chance to be in a Letterman audience (and this was
