Pshaw.
McCarthy is probably a big lightweight sissy just like Hemingway.
The cultivated air of toughness is always suspect.

That credit sequence with Posey posing seemed like a specific reference to Stardust, no?It reminded me of Charlotte Rampling's "how do I look?" scene.

I miss Starz.

Cool.  Me too.
Let's start a band.

" the pseudo punk guys in Richmond that always wanted to slap beer out of my hands "

" But those who hear the dog whistle bark loudly. ""It says a lot that the one person charmed by Nathanial’s “moronic innocence” is a cave-dwelling freak. "

Agreed.
I knew a guy in high school who was in a band, and he told me they played Yellow Ledbetter.  "How did you figure out the words to that song," I asked him.  "I didn't.  It doesn't matter," he said.

GHOST DALE: My God, man!  After everything that's just happened, you're just going to walk away?  You use up all the toilet paper and then don't put a new roll on?  My God!  Think of all the other people that live here!  You're better than that!  Be decent!

I respect this show a whole lot more now that they've come to their senses and killed off that mewling, dead-weight schmendrick Dale.
I'll have even more respect for this show if Dale is back next week, like South Park Kenny, totally unexplained and back to his mewling, loady, schmendricky shenanigans as ff nothing

It made me think of Joan Didion talking about her ancestors moving West, where the rule was: if you see a snake on the trail, kill it, so it doesn't attack the next person who comes by.

I resolve to make many millions of dollars in 2012.
Then, I'll give it to Chris Elliott so he can make Cabin Boy 2.

This feature is great.
The Onion used to ask bands to justify their existence.  Between One Track Mind and Undercover, AV Club has that question licked.
Good stuff.

For Our Consideration: We really botched this one

Lovely.  Thanks, AV Club.

Make it Police Academy, grittily reimagined with Christian Bale, and you've got a deal.

I really wanted to like this show, but it reminds me of community theater.
Inert drama, flat jokes, and Elijah Wood has got to be one of the worst professional actors working today.
