Was that an old copy of Trivial Pursuit Genus Edition that Christina Applegate found in a box labelled "old bulbs"? The best part of that game is all the questions about USSR, Erector Sets, and long forgotten boxers.

That line just reminded me of Rielle Hunter, John Edwards' mistress and the inspiration for a character in a Jay McInerney novel, whose father was implicated—when she was 17—in a plot to electrocute horses for insurance money, including Rielle's show jumper.

Leopards don't have stripes, Nathan. They have spots!

I think she said something about her parents having attended the Atlanta Olympics. She might as well as not even had a line at all.

Saw set pics with Keitel as another Scout Leader wearing those scout shorts. So be on the lookout for dickslips.

Did they ever decide whether Dexter's Ghost Dad was his biologically dad too? Back when I watched that had been strongly implied and then never resolved.

Agreed. That scene with Anton Walbrook's monologue in the English immigration office is one of my all-time favourites.

I feel like TCM runs an Andy Hardy marathon at least once a month, usually before the sun rises.

Does it have any of The Stranger's absurdist streak?

The Sion poem? I took my username from The Savage Detectives.

I can feel the episodic nature is part of the point, with the book divided into loosely connected parts, and the women murders never being solved… because well they cannot be, it's a systemic violence that doesn't have a simple cause…

This really sounds like it's for fans and completists. What with so many completed novels released (and still being released?) in English posthumously, there's no reason to read this one ahead of the others.

Yeah, The Part About The Crimes was the gruesome masterpiece inside of 2666.

Not liking Paul Rudd is just one way Dan Harmon used to characterize Jeff Winger as cynical.

This would have kinda sucked as a season premiere, since it doesn't advance anything in an already molasses-slow show. (I could see it working as maybe a cold open or something mid-season.) And didn't Darabont actually work on the first half of season 2?

I rewatched all of Justice League's two seasons a couple of months ago because of these articles. I usually try to read these in a timely fashion (I agree with you on their quality), but sometimes I don't have much to add, like with this episode. Did Etrigan not rhyme? I thought there was one DCAU appearance where

My favourite R-Rated twist on the body-switch genre will remain 2007's underloved The Secret starring David Duchovny and Lili Taylor and Olivia Thirlby as his Freaky-Fridayed wife and daughter. Not a comedy by any means, but it deals with some of the creepy sexual dynamics that such a switch might cause.

I read the The Pelican Brief as a teenager and it sucked. Then I watched my parents' VHS of the movie and it was even worse.

Rennie gets a lifetime pass for appearing in shit because he was Billy Tallent.
