I read the New Yorker article about the making of this movie.  It made me want to see the movie.  But I read New Yorker articles, so I don't see movies.

Shoulda gone with Blues Clues.  Not only is it slow and formulaic, they repeat the same show every day for the whole week because 2 year olds love familiarity.

Bruce Almighty had the most depressing premise of any movie: a guy is given omnipotent god-powers and a week to use them in, and all he can imagine doing with them is use them to confuddle Steve Carrell in an effort to move a single rung up the career track.

Doesn't look any worse than the first Pirates movie.

Hopefully the sequel will have light sabers.

It's unfortunate that that black bird flew right into the shot when they took that picture.

That's actually been his normal makeup regimen ever since he saw a wrinkle three weeks ago.

No shit.  The Lone Ranger was black.

I hope they do another clip show.  And I hope every show starts doing additional-footage clip shows.

They have TV on the internet now.

As uncomfortable as the puppetmaster is, it's nice to see Avatar addressing issues of prisoners of war, the damaging effects of genocide, and the morally ambiguous repurcussions of the oppressed becoming the oppressor.

I wouldn't have minded if there had just been more brothers on the crew from the beginning.  It was a clever ending otherwise.  But that one episode made me feel like the entire four seasons of BSG were all leading up to:

Whoever it was on this site who told me not to watch the Fourth season can go fuck themselves.  I don't know if it's because people warned me to lower my expectations, but I really enjoyed much of the fourth season.  There were some solid episodes in there.

i also love community,

It's not just dehumanizing, it's also infantilizing.  The idea that the savage tribesmen are like children in need of the harsh lessons of civilization.  Many of my British friends believed that colonization brought medicine and technology to the British colonies that, for whatever reason, normal trade and diplomatic…

No no, 1000 times no.

Speed Racer is an awesome accomplishment.  It took the world of the Speed Racer cartoon and translated them into a fleshed out, 3D, adult world without corrupting any of the characters or motivations.  Speed acted like Speed.  Pops acted like Pops.  Spritle, god held up, acted like Spritle.  And they all lived in a…

As I recall, that actress knew fuck-all about pretending to be a documentary interviewer, and every single statement made by the locals was peppered with her annoying voice going "Really?  Really?  Really?  Really?  Uh-huh?  Really?"

FUJISAWA RULES, BITCHES!

Well, her images were replacing Jesus, money, and other gods.  So if you worshipped other things, now you were worshipping Jasmine.
