Actually, it is good.

In all honesty—absolutely no snark intended—I'm really fascinated by how many people found Where the Wild Things Are to be so brutally depressing. I loved it, and thought it perfectly captures that strange and unnamed aching sadness that kids get out of nowhere. With that said, I also felt happy and inspired when I…

I haven't seen it yet, but I have a feeling it's going to Palin comparison to the first two.

The RZA is not a good rapper. He's just not. Great producer, absolutely shitty mc.

An Infinite Jest adaptation directed by Horsefellow—now that I'd pay to see.

Tom—
I get that you don't like the movie, but I don't understand how you can so easily and condescendingly deny that the movie's characters are in any way realistic when so many people are claiming otherwise—from personal experience! Are they just wrong? Did they forget what their high school experiences were like? …

Does Ahmet Ertegun count as white?

Speakin' English is right on. American Gangsta is a pretty good album, and the original Blueprint kicks the living shit out of II. But Reasonable Doubt is absolutely Jay's best.

When I saw the photo for the interview the first thing I thought was, "Goddammit, not another interview with Mark Wahlberg."

Well it looks like these were already taken care of below, but here's something for the latecomers:

I was unfortunate enough to catch an episode of Home Improvement about a month ago, and it was some stupid shit about one kid not wanting to dress up with his girlfriend for Halloween, so Tim said, "Sometimes you have to do things you don't want to do so that your girlfriend does things she doesn't want to do." And…

A few years ago one of the hugest assholes I've ever known showed up to a Halloween party at my friend's house in an absolutely pitch-perfect, dead on Gram Parsons costume—that he made himself. It was the epitome of mixed emotions.

Let's not forget The Cable Guy, of which he was a producer. I know there's a pretty annoying cadre of people who like to lecture on how The Cable Guy is so brilliant, and while those people are shitty and pedantic, they're not wrong. That movie is awesome.

Wynton is a boring, self-important boner. But Branford fucking owns. Really.

Yeah, like anyone would want to "R" her.

I think the final scene worked so well partially because of how horribly Danny McBride throws a baseball. That coupled with the destructive insanity and the looks of joy on everybody's faces absolutely killed me. I love this show.

I'm also loving this thread. I think another important issue to keep in mind when objectively judging art—and I agree with TomWaits that it is possible to do so—is that the release of every Nickelback album implies that some other record is not made. I realize that we live in the Clerks generation, in which anybody…
