Agreed. I've said before regarding the duo that it feels like they're laughing with Southerners, not at us. Eastbound and Down had some great little cultural easter eggs (e.g. a Cheerwine truck). I'm looking forward to seeing what winking references we get in a show shot in my hometown!

That's what I loved about Eastbound and Down—it was one of the first shows I'd ever seen that I felt like was laughing with us and not at us. It still had some ridiculous stereotypical characters but they felt more grounded and loving than stuff you'd usually see. And they'd throw some great little cultural easter

Everything that Rowling has come up with since and including the epilogue of the last Harry Potter book comes off like the worst kind of HP fan fiction. She's turning into George Lucas.

For some reason, the way Liz jumps out at Jack and says "Gimme 20 dollars" always makes me guffaw uncontrollably, even when I know it's coming. Great episode!

I know it's cool to hate on the Chili Peppers on the AV Club (unless you throw in the obligatory hipster qualifier that "they haven't been good since Mother's Milk") but By the Way is legitimately one of my favorite albums to listen to all the way through.

Wrong.

I love imagining that this movie gets made and is only seen by literally 27 people!!

Tony Hale's been getting knocked a lot lately for being over-shadowed by the deep bench on the cast but he was the runner-up MVP in this episode!

Yeah that was definitely Brian Doyle-Murray.

Yes! I was going to post the exact same thing! I seem to remember Max Payne 2 having a similar and equally frustrating dream sequence.

Great scene from literally one of my favorite movies ever!

Obviously to my discerning adult tastes, the Goosebumps books are incredibly ham-fisted and formulaic, but they were the first books I ever remember reading for pleasure. I totally devoured them, many in one or two sittings (that's impressive for a third grader, right?). I honestly don't know that I would've gotten

Right—I now realize that was worded ambiguously—I meant any of those three movies would've worked for '07 IMO

Yeah, I'm a little surprised ONE of their films didn't make the cut.
You could've easily replaced M:I with one of the shots from Fargo.
I was hoping No Country For Old Men would make the cut but I would've accepted There Will Be Blood or Zodiac from that year.
Miller's Crossing had Goodfellas to compete with…

I was in college when Borat came out and saw it in a big theater with mostly other college kids—the douchey frat bros who pick him up hitchhiking unexpectedly being from our hated rival school made the experience all the more magical!!

No love for this?

I haven't listened to this podcast—I generally like the EarWolf-type lighter comedy fare. But color me intrigued.

I thought it was obvious the reason The Governor threw Merle under the bus is because Merle told the Governor that they had killed Michone and then she showed up alive and stabbed him in the eye.

This was the first thing that came to mind when I read the topic of the list!!
