And here I was hoping to hear the filmmaker's undoubtedly enlightening comments on the symbol-laden scene in which a toilet mounted to the wall starts bleeding.  Seriously, that happens in this film. 

Finally had a chance to watch "Moonrise Kingdom" this weekend, which I know has been discussed to death on here.  After reading all of the rave reviews, I have to say I was somewhat disappointed.  The entire thing just felt like an exercise in style, which I know is a stupid thing to say, because it's a Wes Anderson…

My girlfriend and I saw him at some restaurant in Chicago a few years ago (I think he was filming The Break-Up) and now whenever I see him in anything, her words always spring to mind: "He's fat, his eyes are hungover bloodshot-red, and I'm fairly certain that's a toupee." 

I remember of going to watch "Battlefield Earth" on the second weekend of its release.  Why, I have no idea.  But I was the only person in the theater, and my response to nearly every scene was an audible, "Holy fuck."  It made absolutely no sense that anyone at any point in time thought this was a good idea.  Did…

Bowfinger is such a great film.  I always mention to people and they respond with, "Really?!"  From the first scene to last, it's damn near perfect. Even Heather Graham is damn funny in it.  "Where do I go to become a star?"

Also watched Seeking a Friend, and it's the kind of film that I could pick apart for hours, and off the top of my head, I could name 15 things I disliked about it.  But as a whole, when I look back on it, I really liked it a lot, to the point where I'm willing to shove aside nearly all of my misgivings, which I rarely…

Saw this last night and it was BAD.  I mean, it has a few chuckles here and there, thanks mostly to Depp's reactions to the various oddities of the '70s, but otherwise it was an interminable mess.  This review doesn't go into how certain characters just vanish for long sections of the film, which would be fine if the…

Now whenever and I think of "Helicopter Mom and My Special Little Deaf Boy How Dare You Look At Him Funny" I always think of their stint on the All-Stars episode and him having a colossal meltdown during the tea-drinking competition.  And it makes me smile.

Or BB Rachel simply on the sled itself. Those things were so compressed I thought they were going to bust through the sled, sending wood shrapnel everywhere.

As much as I despise Art and J.J., when it came down to the final three, a little part of me was actually rooting for them, which just goes to show how truly awful the other two teams were.  And tonight, instead of J.J. screaming Art's name, he kept calmly referring to him as Arthur, which was a strange turn. …

Rachel seems like a truly awful individual, the kind willing to give up at a moment's notice when things aren't going her way, bitching and whining the entire time, blaming everyone else.  I can't imagine why anyone would want to be with someone like that, making me think there's gotta be something wrong with Brendon,…

The topper was Dave referring to it as "Operation: Amazing Race."  I get it, you were in the military, real clever name.  Next up: "Operation: Anger Management" or "Operation: Couples Therapy."
Do you think Dave is deluded enough to think he is likeable?  Their team may have accomplished the most wins, but in my mind,…

Pretty pissed that Ralph and Vanessa didn't make it to the final three.  I really liked them, and seeing her persevere through the sprained ankle showed that she had some guts.  Throughout the entire season, they kept saying they were doing it for their kids, to show that one should never give up, and she exemplified…
