Seriously, why are we not doing "phrasing"?!

Me seeing Boyle naked in bed: "Please don't be Rosa, please be Chelsea Peretti…"

I guess I'll have to take your word for it about Se7en. I've never heard people say it's the best Fincher film, let alone the best film of 1995, let alone one of the all-time great films. Maybe I'm hanging out in the wrong crowds.

The Dark Knight Rises was better? Really?

Yep. Unsurprisingly, once you hit the 80s the choices get very
"neckbeards' favorite movies," where Terminator is better than Amadeus,
Trainspotting is better then Fargo, Se7en is better than Babe, and The
Dark Knight Rises is better than Moonrise Kingdom or The Master.

Yeah, that's me, and now I feel guilty about it. My desire to read D and F reviews of a show I don't watch does not outweigh the harm it does to reviewers' psyches.

Read too quickly and thought you said you did a double-feature of Hannibal and Muppets Most Wanted. *adds that to to-do list*

The last time I saw Lear I was surprised by how much I empathized with Regan and Goneril. I guess that's life (and theater), making you rethink Shakespeare villains.

Ooh, no. I'm loud, but I'm not that loud.

The Dalek revolution will most certainly be televised.

"Uh, excuse me Mr. President, but that's not entirely accurate."

Next week on The Thrilling Adventures of AV Club Commenting! Space Jewess complains about The Lazarus Experiment!

I haven't seen Castle, but the "New York" accents in these episodes drove me nuts. They aren't just bad in comparison to real New Yorkers. They aren't even good in comparison to the stereotypical New York accent you hear in old radio plays and such. Ha, I'm getting all worked up just thinking about how much I hate the…

I have this never-gonna-happen desire that he'll somehow become the 12th Doctor's companion at some point.

These two episodes and Fear Her are the only RTD-era episodes I have never rewatched and will never rewatch. Your son is wise.

I love The Holy Terror. It's amazing to me how well it shifted from hilarious to exceptionally moving. Also I love Frobisher, and I don't care who knows it. Fast-talking penguins in everything!

"Does it pass the bechdel test (I don't think Hannibal does)?"

I can say with some authority that, yes, writing is extremely hard work, but it's not beyond criticism. No one's saying the writers should go back and rewrite the whole thing from scratch (really?) to fix the gender balance. What would be nice is if, when they were in the planning stages at the beginning of a season,…

Ha! The only thing I like more than Mads's Hannibal is the tumblr version who only speaks in comic sans.

Oh, gelato always.
