Sadly, Beema is correct that someone who live tweets his first watch of Mulholland Drive, brags about having 200 thousand comments (a typo hopefully), and uses insults like bombaclot (gonna guess it's an Adventure Time reference or something) is pretty much exactly the kind of person who should be posting on this site

Hoffman said he claimed to be staying up all night as method prep for the role but really it was just an excuse for staying up all night partying.

Except they do show the shark in Jaws. Repeatedly. Sometimes people repeat this shit and I feel like they turned off Jaws after the first scene or something. The whole last third of the movie there's plenty of shark.

Us sophisticated types don't need a laugh track to tell us when to laugh, we just need the main character to look directly into the camera, smirk and roll their eyes to tell us when to laugh!

Guillermo Del Toro: has there ever been a director so beloved who's made so few really good movies?

Point: "The world is a really interesting place. We don't need supernatural bullshit to make it so."

D'Angelo's one of the best critics around. All reviewers give their opinion like it's concrete fact, it's part of the job, but D'Angelo does it without pandering or hedging his bets, and he's honest and doesn't give a damn about what the consensus opinion is. Wish there were more reviewers like him, and think it's

Clinton, Carter and to be honest Bush Sr (even though he was a boo hiss Republican) were all better. None of them were great, but torture camps, massive secret surveillance and drone warfare knocks him way down the list.

You're much less dickish about it than most, but I do hate it when people use the "whatevs, first world problems" line about books or movies they didn't have the patience for. You can just say you were bored, don't try to act like you're Norma Rae for not watching a movie.

*By "we" I mean "he" and by "something else" I mean "less condescending friends".

One good point Kenny makes in the article that I sympathised with is how every time someone who actually knew Wallace talks about him, they get called assholes by the fans, and told they didn't know Wallace at all. The fans have a weird sense of ownership over DFW and hostility towards the people who actually knew

"Write more about cinematographers! That's what people want to hear."

Nah, all he's really done is escalated things and given the bullies a reason to pick on his kid. Snitches get stitches, the fat pussy is in for a pounding. Probably not from the kid who got traumatised and will probably move school or something, but from his friends.

I'd like to complain that DuVernay is too good a director to be wasting her time on a Marvel movie, but then I might look superherophobic, and on this site racism is actually probably more popular than comic book hatred.

I think it's maybe a parody of Great Job Internet's "one thing meets another thing" formula (Parks and Recreation quotes meets Mad Men pictures in this lazy tumblr blog, great job internet!) Only in this version the other thing is always Bruce Springsteen lyrics.

What are the main one man show movies? I always like the idea but I struggle to think of any off the top of my head aside from Locke.

It's definitely not an encouraging sign for the Vaccines career that this guy, who sounds like pretty much their biggest fan, didn't even know they had an album coming out.

I think it's funny that on the newswire pieces of Fury Road everybody's sucking their own dicks about how they've defeated the patriarchy by watching a movie where supermodels in skimpy outfits get chased across the desert, but Taylor Swift makes an action movie inspired video and we're straight back to "what a fake

This Great Job Internet has 106 comments. Monday's Great Job Internet about Bill Murray has a mere 23. I think we can conclude Taylor Swift is significantly more popular among Av Club readers than Bill Murray. Stop pretending you're not the only one in the world who doesn't like her.

You get a better barometer of quality by actually watching the show. Trying to piece together the plot of an episode by reading the comments on a (positive, but I guess that doesn't matter to you) review is bizarre behaviour. If you don't want to watch the show don't watch it, but move on with your life. How
