I'm gonna say the worst douchebags are those who say "I'm so sorry, it'll never happen again," then it continues to happen over and over again.

And if I could somehow earn $15 million for doing that, I would! This is why Seltzer/Friedberg keep making movies.

The internet PC police do like to shut down any discussion of the white, male, heterosexual normativity in our popular culture. So your reaction was indeed, quite predictable. And boring.

You are 100% wrong on both points.

You know, if she had bothered to memorize her lines and didn't look so utterly terrified, I honestly think Bujold would have had the right sort of aloofness and icy effectiveness to be believable as a spaceship captain.

Chakotay's badness isn't just Beltran's fault. I mean, he's not so much a character so much as a racial charicature (fucking vision quests? REALLY?!?). And his relationship with Janeway was sometimes not completely boring.

Pulaski is an opinionated older lady. This in itself is taken as an insult to a certain demographic of males.

I felt like Inception had so much exposition because, in the end, Inception is almost entirely about its premise. Inception is a movie about itself that likes to spend time talking about itself. Compare that to the first Matrix, which is a hero's journey with trippy sci-fi trappings that you shouldn't think too hard…

Yeah, I'll probably see this in 3D, and I hate 3D with a fiery passion. One of the great things about the long shots in Children of Men is their sense of a fully inhabited 3-dimensional space. I'm very interested to see what Cuaron can do with another dimension to work with.

Awww, baby bunnies. There's a wild rabbit in my neighborhood that likes to have babies in my backyard a couple of times a year. For some reason, it always picks one of my dog's favorite pee spots for its nest, which is irritating.

Chrono Cross holds the unique distinction, for me, as the quickest transition from being unbelievably excited for a game to losing any and all interest. I especially liked how they replaced Trigger's battle system with the slowest, most generic system possible. Seriously, fuck Chrono Cross.

Luckily, the most filmable one is actually the first one, which is full of moody, Hitchcock-style environmental horror. With the right director, Over Sea Under Stone could be really good, although not remotely marketable.

Part of the reason the Room is so watchable is that certain aspects of the production were competent - the core editing is fine, the shots are composed so that you can basically understand where everyone is, the sound mix is perfectly decent, etc. This allows you to focus on the plot, dialog, and acting, which is…

not everything without a title can't be not good?

Yes, yes, yes. Tom Cruise has a real presence on camera that can really pull together an otherwise incomprehensible or tonally incoherent film (e.g., all the MI movies). He's both charismatic and really good at inhabiting and making real whatever insane universe a given movie has dreamed up for him.
