I was a middle-school girl just as those movies came out, and I remember really liking Tarzan and Atlantis. Less so Treasure Planet (it really was overshadowed by how awesome Spirited Away was) but that one is pretty enjoyable as well. I put it high up there on my "adaptations of Treasure Island" list. Under Muppets

I don't think I've ever read a comment here that was so UNSPEAKABLY HORRIFYING that I felt the the need to permanently remove it from my field of vision (28 years old doctor/RAF type posts aside).

Don't even.

The dozens of incomplete freeway overpasses in the background are probably the best thing in the movie.

Excellent - totally with you, Acid Police. There is a casual acceptance of cruelty in Solondz's films that drives me crazy with discomfort, especially considering that I grew up in suburban New Jersey with that tacky mid-90's hell and deeply identify with the sort of weird, frequently grotesque way he presents

I also felt obligated to watch Bridesmaids, and tell people I knew that it was getting great reviews, but found myself only laughing a handful of times. There was effort there, but I felt Apatow's influence was so transparent and clashed so obviously with the slightly melancholy story Mumalo and Wiig had written that

Barry Lyndon is the Kubrick that I always have to fake like. Yeah, if you're interested in a true period piece, it's great. But I was not and it went on far too long. It only works as a film framed within Kubrick's career, but not as a piece of entertainment in its own right.

Idiocracy is one of the best ideas Judge has ever had, and a movie I enjoy very much, but he was so caught up with his high concept - in the future, people are SO DUMB!!! - that he neglected to string together a cohesive narrative or find the right balance between hilarious and unsettling. It does, however, get in

It seems as though Tasha seemed to start with an "A" and deduct points, while Tobias started with an "F" and added to it. Other reviews seem as though the critic started with a "C" and waited to see which direction the film went in. Either way, I don't have too much of a problem considering I don't come to the AVC for

I want to like Anthony Ryan, especially since this season seems to be made up of sociopaths, dullards, and American Apparel models, aka the stuff of drama but not sympathy. Anthony seems genuinely sweet. But his dress went from simply referencing the McQueen collection from 2010 (2009?) last week to pretty

Oooooh. Frosty battle of the Troy avatars!

I love "Beep Beep:"

Avoiding "classic" moments or ones that were already mentioned:

I approve heartily of any and all the possibilities brought up here, and nothing else to add but that if and/or when there are KITH recaps, I will be thrilled to death, regardless of who writes them.

I think ensemble shows (not even just sitcoms) are in a huge renaissance now, so I definitely think that plays a part in its increasing after-the-fact popularity. At the time, the workplace group cast show was something of a rarity, but now I'd say more shows than not feature at least a main cast of five or six

Kudos! Kudos to you, Madam!
Well, I think I've committed many florid crimes of purple prose in these last few weeks as I anticipated this series coming to an end, so I won't say too much more. Just that I love this show dearly and I'm happy that I got to experience it with Donna and the rest of the Jimmy James Robot

If only so that more people can see that clip from the unaired "Spaced" remake. And feel ashamed.

I saw two eps of Alabama at a book thing Lennon/Garant did and it was hilarious. Could have been a good show, especially considering what a great place FX is for comedy right now. That would suck if those two shows canceled each other out because those two teams of guys should be making as much comedy as humanly

I absolutely love the unhinged, crazy Dave and don't really mind the conclusion given that every rational, reasonable approach to management has been run through over the course of the series by Dave and during the episode by Lisa (kindness, hardlined demands, bribery, coercion, blackmail, cheating). The only thing
