I believe the proper term for garbage queen is "Derelicte"

While I understand he had to fit Star Wars in somewhere, I'm pretty sure 1980 should have gone to The Shining.

When Kim Richards ate it in the original Assault on Precinct 13 I lost it, no way that scene gets made today

My movie of the week was Persona, which was quite the trip to watch right after you wake up in the morning. It's hard not to see the direct parallels between this and Mulholland Drive; both films play with how we see ourselves and why we look in others for our ideal selves.

"A violent argument erupts over who's day was more pleasant"

It's funny you mention Too Many Cooks, because the actress that plays Enid, Katelyn Nacon, was actually in Too Many Cooks.

only if the rest of the cast was rounded out with the starting lineup of the 1976 Philadelphia Flyers

Have you been to Saxapahaw before? I saw Daniel Rossen there last year and it instantly became one of my favorite venues.

*narrows eyes* What is this slideshow everybody's doin'?

Looooooooove me some Darcell Jones.

You're going down for this, Cody!

I watched three pretty decent movies over the weekend:

I've been there; I saw Daniel Rossen of Grizzly Bear play a solo set. It's a really interesting place; it's part of an old mill which has been converted into a ballroom with a restaurant upstairs. It is, by far, the best venue I've been to; it's almost set up like a church, and the acoustics are amazing. It's

I'll add to all the ambient recommendations here. There's a Swedish artist named glo who's released like 10 albums in the last four months; it's all pretty great, and it's all free on Bandcamp. William Basinski, Grouper, and Thursday Afternoon by Brian Eno also work well.

Ah, good ol' Hollywood, thinking print media is alive and well in 2015

This was the first one that came to mind. I think one reason it stood out is because it started with an A, it was always one of the first ones you'd see. You would just be casually browsing dramas and then BOOM! At 7 or 8, I hadn't yet mentally prepared myself for that.

Can we just talk about how good Comedy Central has gotten over the past few years? Four great shows on the list already, and probably one more tomorrow. They've come a long way since Krod Mandoon and Secret Girlfriend.

I can't help but wonder if movie studios rationalize producing more male-centric stories because they have a longer track record of success and thus considered slightly less of a risk, ignoring that female-centric films have been historically underproduced as a result of the sexism that, by default, they are

Don't you have to get in the Zone to fully appreciate Stalker?

One of my favorite things about Key & Peele is how they use some of their old friends (Danielle Gaither, Nicole Parker, and several others) from MADTV to play important supporting roles. MADTV was never really that good, but the awesomeness of K&P is a good example of how great performers can be undercut by terrible
