Yeah, but the theme that "snobby literary shit can be fun" is just as (if not more) insulting than "punk can be intelligent."
Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus is a violent popcorn-y mess of ridiculous shit happening. Of course it's fun… it's fucking hilarious.
The Camus, Brueghel, and "Fear and Loathing" references are…

I don't know…
I haven't been able to get into these guys. So much of that first album seems like literary allusions for the sake of literary allusions, and as far as I can tell, they don't really convey any real understanding of what they're talking about.

Joe Strummer can't help being awesome at all times.
Just look at Straight to Hell.
Or Mystery Train.

Every time I hear Rubber Factory, I shit myself.
With music.

Yes, saintsryfe. 1000 times yes.

Oh Frabjous Day! Calloo! Callay!
Wait… that would mean I'm excited for this shit. Fuck that.

Ugh… The whole "Carroll's a pedophile" thing gets really old. There's no real evidence to suggest that he ever had that sort of relationship with Alice.
Also, that sort of photography (and also painting) was (for whatever reason) very popular in Britain/a lot of Europe at the time.

Why couldn't NPH just jump on some post-Dollhouse Joss Whedon project?
Or a talk show.
Fuck.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the major conflict of the story Liam Neeson's character trying to recapture his daughter/the little boy trying to find his mother/holy fuck a giant flood almost destroyed a town?
I wouldn't call that a film with "no significant conflict."

As far as Elvis impersonator stories go…

No, "Messrs" is the plural form of the abbreviated "Mr."
Just letting you know.

Mr. Moreland… (applause)

I appreciate Revenge of the Zombies.
Mantan, sir, I'd be happy if you stuck around.

Meh?
Yeah. Meh.

Are they beating on a plastic trash can?

Really, the entire time I was just waiting for Kevin Spacey and Parker Posey to come back. The only non-villains scene I remember is the peeping-tom stuff.

I believe it should be read "casual cinephile"/ "animation obsessive"

I picked up my first Adam Green as part of a shitty 99cent compilation album (one of the ones they usually send to college radio stations that no one really bothers listening to) at a cool little New Haven record store. It was right after his Garfield came out, so it had songs off of that along with Kimya Dawson…

I wonder if Seth Rogen or Jonah Hill will show up.

Why can't they just remake Disorderlies already?
