Rian Johnson or John Hillcoat over Terrence Fuckin' Malick? You suck at having thoughts on things, I'm sad to say.

And what the hell does the "Facebook generation" mean? Everyone uses Facebook. Your mom uses Facebook. It is not this generation's LSD.

I'm 4 years younger than her, and I thought Tiny Furniture was shit.

Y'know, I'm not a big fan of Jarmusch, and I think most of his movies thematically amount to "hey, this is cool" (he's a hipster dilettante, basically, and he's almost admitted this); but "Dead Man" to me seems like the one film of his with some substance. It feels like a film that really does try to grapple with the…

I don't know what's number 1, but the best movie of the 90's has already been listed: "Naked".

"The 60s" was not a monolithic cultural movement (and I'm guilty, as are most people, of framing it in such a way) but I think the main thrust of the era was not that it was critical of consumerism or capitalism, but that it was critical of conformity. There was the book by Vance Packard called "The Hidden Persuaders"…

I'm a cynical gay person when it comes to this sort of thing. All this says to me is that the networks have seized upon certain demographics (not just gays, but tolerant, bourgeois urbanites, which is probably the main target) and they're playing the game. It's like when I read about Target "supporting" gay marriage…

God, I'm loving The Sopranos right now (just finished Employee Of The Month!) and Chase is clearly a great filmmaker, but I hope this isn't just another 60's nostalgia movie. The trailer seems to suggest a somewhat nuanced look at the conflict between the old world (Gandolfini) and the new world (his 20-something son…

I love football, and I love watching it (Ever been to a college football game? An amazing experience.) but the culture around football is now stupid and brutal. There was a George Will (yeah, I know, I know: I'm a lefty, but I like reading the opposition) article in the Washington Post about how on the 1966 Bear…
