Ha, agree to disagree!  I kind of like how they slowly shifted away from up-tempo bubblegum to mid-tempo balladry.  Although I do think you're right in wanting Dan & Neko's contributions to be greater.  I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens on LP6!

I always loved Challengers, and never understood the lukewarm reviews for it.  Really a gorgeous-sounding album with tremendous production value.

Ah, so close

"Life in a Glass House"?

Fuck You, The Dissolve

Well said.

Yeah "We Need A Myth" might be the most rousingly anthemic song they've ever written, which is saying something.

It's also their most complexly-arranged and most polished-sounding album (in a good way!).

Their last two albums may not have been as consistently good as the two that preceded them, but they still contained some great moments ("Calling and Not Calling My Ex" and "We Need A Myth" are both killer tracks that immediately come to mind).

Yeah I loved that line too, especially since Spock had said earlier that he thought of using Khan's own missiles against him because that's something Kirk would have done.  The fact that the characters could learn to understand and embrace the other's worldview really solidified the bond that they had formed for me,…

This film could have actually been pretty decent if not for the fact that Jeremy Renner was a completely lifeless and irredeemable asshole the whole way through.  I'd say he was just phoning it in, but his performance in the last Bourne film wasn't really that much more dynamic.  He's just not the charismatic…

Everyone seems to forget the year that Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin hosted (maybe because the subsequent pairing of Hathaway and Franco was such a trainwreck), but that was easily my favorite Oscar telecast.  They had a natural rapport and charisma that you can really only get from veterans who have been doing that…

I read this whole Newswire in crazy Nicolas Cage voice and didn't even realize it until afterwards.  So not only are all movies Nicolas Cage movies, but all our thoughts are actually…NICOLAS CAGE'S THOUGHTS

I haven't read the book yet either, but I seem to recall hearing somewhere that he actually posed as a college professor at some point as well, but they just couldn't work that into the script.  If that's the case it just makes me that much more impressed with the real-life version of this man, since his story sounds…

Spielberg liked them so much that he aped the idea from himself when he did Tintin (albeit in 3-D this time).

I stumbled onto this episode right before the kiss happened and have to admit that it got me all hot and bothered as well.  It was almost shocking in its raw intimacy.  I don't really know what kind of relationship these two are supposed to have in real life or on the show, but that moment of sexual revelation was…

Or Angus T. Steakflowered it

Yeah I remember watching that episode and relating to the characters for once because they actually felt kind of real, with them lamenting the closing of the bar and losing their favorite hangout spot (this has happened to me so many times it's depressing).  And it struck me as really strange that they STILL kept…

Yeah Lucy Punch was the reason I started watching this show (and the main reason I continued watching).  She really is a great comedic actress, and I hope she gets more work soon too.

This seems to happen a few times a week for me nowadays, depending on how absurd the news is and how much of a roll O'Neil's on.
