I think this is actually a great thing, even though I don't like Amanda Palmer's music.

It's interesting, the whole rumbling, howling wind sound effect thing has been in every David Lynch film at some point, even his student film work. His first attempt at a narrative film, "The Grandmother," has this sound in some scenes that seems a bit like Lynch blowing into a microphone. It's a laughable attempt at

Carson totally called him "Jim Jenson" in the intro. TYPEWRITER FAIL.

Interesting, also, how the Spielberg face is the exact OPPOSITE of the Kubrick face.

I got the Smurfs remake. I got the Tron sequel. I even get the endless horror classic remakes that Hollywood keeps pumping out. Take something most people are familiar with, toss a few hundred mill at it, turn a profit. It's crass, but I get it.
This? A small, violent, controversial cult film? Why? This is not only

I'd like to second that. Reboot was awesome. Before America watched Toy Story and really figured out what CG animation could do, we had Reboot, a stiffly-animated, poorly rendered Saturday morning cartoon show that still managed to blow everyone's mind. ("It's animation, but it looks three dimensional!" we thought.

To me, it's a simple matter of Scott Pilgrim having a director working at the height of his creativity, but filming a script that is, as Scott said, "lumpy and misshapen." Edgar Wright wanted to cram in as much incident from this six-volume series as he possibly could, and I agree, from a story stand-point, it simply

Someone won a contest…and Patton Oswalt came into their home…made a few cool jokes…read from his book…and ATE PIE?!? WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THAT CHICAGO IS THE PLACE WHERE MY DREAMS COME TRUE?!?!?!?

As much as I love it, new Doctor Who pulls this shit CONSTANTLY. The Doctor applies his sonic screwdriver to re-jigger the whatsis to a thousand humminas and that suddenly destroys that Fromminux shielding what-have-yous and now everyone is okay. Huzzah!

Comin' BACK Baby!
This is the HBO I know and love. High production value, good music, lots of swearing.
