Dang, we're in a tight spot…in space!

A few things I'm loving ignoring:
Anything with Vampires or Zombies
All Network T.V.
All Reality T.V.
Lady Gaga/Katy Perry/Rhianna/Chris Brown/Justin Beiber/ Fun.
Ebert for me was a pillar of criticism and commentary. He was ALWAYS there, and the over all quality of his writing was just incredibly high, especially considering how prolific he was. He was always seemed so fair, he championed giant blockbusters he loved as easily as small, independent films he adored. It's hard to…
They have just fallen so far in my eyes. Hissing Fauna are you the destroyer was such a wonderful, powerfully dark album. Now it's just Kevin Barnes dry humping a woman in a pig mask on stage (sigh).
I just finished Maryline Robinson's Housekeeping, which I've been meaning to read forever. It's actually brilliant and dark and not at all the shitty chick lit that so many of its detractors make it out to be. I also recently read Hemingway's 'The Old Man and the Sea' thus brining me one step closer to having finally…
I am not at all embarrassed to admit that I am plowing through George r r martins a song of ice and fire and hope to have a dance with dragons finally done and thus my ordinary reading life delivered back to me sometime in the next week or two.

'There she goes my beautiful world' is my workout song of choice. Whenever I'm at the gym I just blast it in my headphones and as I'm working out I imagine torrents of my enemies blood just running down the walls.
What actually happens to old T.V. pilots? Do they just burn the tapes, or is it the sort of thing that will wind up on some Malaysian torrent tracker in a month?
The arbor is one of the most powerful films I've seen in the last year. The downward spiral it traces made my jaw literally drop several times. The lowest end is low indeed. If it wasn't for the av club I would never have heard of it. Thank you for writing about it.
I think A Separation on it's own is better than anything Abbas Kiarostami has ever or will ever do. Every single character in this film was completely believable and compelling, and while Juliette Binoche was really powerful in Certified Copy, she doesn't even come close to touching the brilliant ensamble that Farhadi…
Growing up in suburban Kansas City in the early aughts, Borders was pretty much the only access I had to books aside from my poorly stocked local library. When I went away to college and discovered that most independent booksellers could barely make ends meet, I wouldn't say I felt 'bad' about only having ever shopped…
