Say what you want about "American Pie" (I'll say it's a movie I still look at fondly, even though "Superbad" beat it handily at its own game) but Eugene Levy's delivery of trying to reassure his son about normalcy while at the same time internally realizing how bizarre what he was doing was ("…I never did it with

Or when he's speed-dating and the women from Minnesota's breasts fall out of her shirt without her noticing and he's trying so hard not to look because he is, after all, a gentleman…

Is it as bad as Clinton Road in NJ? I sometimes halfway wish I had the testicular fortitude to go up there and give it a try, and then I remember it's just a better idea not to.

Well, Mickey Mantle plays an alien named Ozmodiar that only the foul-mouthed woman can see.

It's kind of unfortunate there are so few films from recent history on the "list of films considered the best," but considering the contrarian backlash that inevitably comes out every time a movie gets released and treated with the slightest bit of reverence, no matter how good the points in its favor are made

Last year, I suggested to a member of the TI "what if "Sunny" were to do an episode where Dee is in a porno?" He said, "no, too dark, even for "Sunny."" And when the episode titles were announced for this season, vindication was never so glorious as it was for me at that moment in time.

This was just…poignant. My brain's neurons don't always fire correctly, but it feels like this segment got them to. Conan and Andy just seemed so sincere in a way not everyone who talked about someone who had recently departed always do. I'm glad Abe got to live such a long life as a celebrated, respected human being;

In the words of Sling Blade, you will be happy.

Doug Judy is the only man who can make an unreturned high-five look confident and carefree and almost BADASS with that shining smile of his. I also liked how there was no promotion that he'd be in this episode and that he just happened to appear on the boat.

This goes both ways. The following is one of my favorite Flanders quotes despite being in a "Treehouse of Horror" and not in actual series continuity.

Would it be racist to say I'd kind of be amused if Best Actor nominations went to 4 deserving black men next year for 4 excellent, effective performances, with the sole white actor nomination going to Daniel Day-Lewis, who re-emerges from his exile for the incredible movie/performance he puts out every 5 years, which

The fact that Macklemore's back doesn't really bother me - it's his haters that might actually be (among) the most obnoxious people on the Internet. And he released a song called "White Privilege" over a decade ago when he was still underground, and it made a lot of good points.

"The To-Do List" had such potential. It's not like it was a dreadful film, but it in no way lived up to what it could have been.

I can only hope this episode leaves you with a deep sense of appointment.

Although, in the end, it kinda reminded me of Matthew Broderick getting laid in "The Cable Guy" since it was all an elaborate staging…which kind of took a lot of the triumph out of it for me.

Hey skiiers, my purpose of coming here is to frack! SHIT!

Netflix exclusive documentaries have been getting nominations for several years now, though. It's only a matter of time before it starts happening to feature films.

But what about "Master of None"? They can't leave us hanging like that.

"Man, there ain't no eels in Freedom Lake!" Season 3 left slightly less of an impression on me than the first two, but I still liked it a lot.

I like Drake and was pleasantly surprised by how durable "Thank Me Later" wound up (although I'm sure there were better songs left on the cutting room floor that could have replaced "Up All Night" and "Unforgettable".) I do think he's a decent rapper and that most of his emotional stuff is actually genuine, and I
