It's cool to think that this record, acclaimed as it is, is probably going to grow in stature as time goes by. It's a great example of "plagiarism from the future," like, we unconsciously realized how much more prescient and vital the themes would become.

The Bends is my "favorite" record of theirs, but I know full well it's not their finest. It's just so damn listenable. Which is ironic considering my second favorite is Kid A.

Sent chills down your Brent Spine…r?

That's a great way to put it! I guess you could say that it…spelled doom for the remainder of their career.

Sometimes I feel like Jeopardy clues stem directly from my unconscious. A few weeks ago, I walked around all day thinking about how "Method of Modern Love" is, by far, Hall & Oates' weirdest tune.

Even if she leaves walking backward down the runway, I'm glad to see Nina go. I just caught up on Untucked yesterday, and the tone of her note to Valentina was dreadfully selfish. I interpreted it as "I'm sorry you're going because I wish you could have stuck around to help me feel better about myself." On a happier…

Donald Trump has dibs on "America."

The suit is designed only to protect people from the inside.

Shout out to the Clive Owen subplot in Identity. So subtle, so good.

I think she demonstrated some personality, she and Jones were the best part of the film for me, but I'm hard-pressed to recall any memorable lines. Ah, maybe the scene (also from the trailer) where she takes the place of the mannequin head in the dressing room.

Yup, same here—my wife and I saw it opening weekend, theatre was full, and it was damn near silent throughout.

I don't think it's just the lack of jokes, though obviously I think the film is a failure in that regard. It has some structural issues, like the second and third acts of the film don't fit together at all.…

I like Jeopardy contestants that answer the clues like they're sharing a secret joke, and Mary was exemplary in this sense.

::thinks of great "Talk about a Russian UNorthodox wedding, amiright folks?" joke during the episode::


::sees it in the first graf of the review::


Dammit!

I wonder if "become a missionary in Ecuador" will become a synonym for "send him to Belize."

I lived in Wyoming for 18 months, it was more beautiful than any other place I had ever lived, and I was told by locals it was the "ugly part of the state." The Tetons are simply astounding.

Question: Would the film be improved if Baldwin's character were digitally replaced by the Boss Baby?

That reminds me to open a bag of cool, refreshing Doritos!

I'm grateful that the commentariat here has turned into a layup line of clowning on McKesson; it's pretty clear that the AVClub writers haven't adequately gauged the vibe of their readership. As respectfully as I can say it, I will: I'm unconvinced that my vision of politics or political change is shared by that man,…

Dew I really want to watch this series?

Final season of the rebooted Battlestar Galactica is all about finding the final five Zyklons.
