As much as I love all these guys, the first one wouldn't have been half as good without the dulcet tones of Bill Kurtis.

I actually find that Michelle Fairey's performance is making like Cat a lot more than I did in the books. But yeah, freeing Jamie is a boneheaded move no matter how you look at it.

Gawker versus "Girls!" The Aliens versus Predator of things you want to go away, forever!

I was similarly disappointed after Rivers Cuomo died in a car crash right after Pinkerton was released.

Ha, you girls with your emotions. Now if you'll excuse me, I think I have something in my eye.

Actually, "This is England," is a pretty good song; I was surprised this list didn't mention it. I thought it was Rock Critic Law that when you write about how much Cut the Crap sucked, you have to include the addendum, "except for 'This is England.'"

Fuck you, cancer.

Great interview. Also, he makes the same point I've been making for years, which is that EZ Streets was the proto-Sopranos. A great show that was just a few years ahead of its time. 

It stinks!

So who would like to pinpoint exactly where Frank Miller went from seriously talented comic book writer to batshit jingoistic misogynist?

I too, watched that show!

I remember some '80s cop show from when I was a kid (I want to say Hunter. Remember Hunter?) where some millionaire offed himself in an elaborate plot to throw suspicion on the rest of his family, whom he hated.

Coming of age in the 90s, it took me years to realize that superhero comics don't HAVE to be terrible. 

Everybody remembers that last scene (and rightfully so), but "Family Meeting" also ranks up there with one of the most chilling episodes of TV I've ever seen.Walton Goggins is amazing.

Kiss Me Deadly was the first thing I thought of when I saw this list. Ralph Meeker is, hands-down, the slimiest, most vile protagonist in any movie I've ever seen. But I think that's kind of the point—Meeker's Mike Hammer occupies a completely amoral world in which there's no advantage to be gained by acting virtuous,

I believe she's also the one who wrote the incredibly patronizing and sexist review of Game of Thrones last year.

Fuck you, cancer.
