I will absolutely always proudly admit to loving Monkeybone. There's so much to love from that movie that you simply won't find anywhere else: Chris Kattan doing a brilliant impression of Brendan Fraser? Rose McGowan in a literal catsuit? Complete filmic chaos that Joe Dante would be proud of?

I actually kind of liked Postal, but I went into it with significantly lowered expectations. As in, I started watching it as a form of intentional self-harm.

In terms of show titles, is this going to be the next "Breaking Bad", e.g. a phrase that a very specific (and small) part of the population is familiar with, and the rest of society as a whole will be debating endlessly?

I'd rather hear him try to make some sense of out the Lulu tracks. Otherwise, if you're going to take a song and just fill it with gravitas and mourning, give me an album of "Perfect Day" covers.

Shouldn't we be considering this a firstie?

I saw both of the first two Mighty Ducks movies in the theater (D2 came out at a time when I was probably too old to have been legitimately excited by it…and yet I was), so I can say that I assumed the movies were popular. But then again, I'm in that weird contingent of American hockey fans. (And, having no local

When talking about them, I always get really excited when someone mentions Animal Collective, then a few seconds later I mentally remind myself "no…it's the Elephant 6 collective that's awesome."

I had to look that song up to figure out what you were talking about (I never knew that was Blood, Sweat & Tears). However, when "carnival breakdown" was mentioned, I immediately thought of TDN's "The Show Must Go On".

….and it's Dikachu from the top of the key with a reference that nobody remembers — HE SINKS IT!

It really is a fantastic track. I worked on a remix of it a while ago, and it's fascinating to hear something so energetic and seemingly just ripped-through broken down to it's basic elements and to hear how thoroughly prepared it was.

I'd have to watch it again to be sure (please don't make me), but I'm pretty sure that disclaimer text is the same text used at the beginning of Dreamworks' "Prince of Egypt" (though swapping Moses for Noah and the referenced book, of course).

Why are we not referring to him as "The Denzel Washington"?

It could, and should, have been a success. I honestly think if Orion had slated it for release towards the middle of June, instead of late July where it was up against a huge number of tent pole releases, it could have done something more.

The first was, at that time, a breath of fresh air- nobody was really doing the "fractured fairy tale" thing anymore. By the time the second one came out, though, everybody had jumped back on that bandwagon, and it already felt tired.

Thank you, whoever the 1 guest vote is. It's good to know someone besides myself has watched Josie and the Pussycats.

I always just think of "frippery" as the sound of Robert Fripp playing guitar on an album.

My wife refuses to let me do it anymore, but I used to go to the value card section (your local dollar store probably even has 2/$1), pick a horribly inappropriate card, and mark out the offending items with a crayon. That way, I've gotten away with giving "Sorry About Your Loss" cards for wedding anniversaries, and

I've tried several times, and I can't make an eloquent post - they all keep devolving into "fuck you, Death". So I'll just say that.

No more Mr Moviefone? Who's going to tell me if something's jerkin' or not now?

Clearly they're just fans of Sloan.
