Man, Polanski's just one of those dudes for whom I can't separate his work from his actions. Every time I read his name, the word Rapist appears before my eyes. I can watch the Before the Rape stuff, but not the After. 
 
You can do a lot, and I mean a LOT, of nasty shit and I'll still gladly consume your art if it's…

Then do I have one for you! I've been posting the description for YEARS on various sites, and doing random searches from time-to-time, with little success.

Playing a man conning people into thinking he's a leprechaun.

Good lord.

Pierrot Le Fou all the way. Some of these episodes are interesting due to kitch, but Cowboy Bebop was my first anime way back at the tender age of 15, and Pierrot Le Fou scared the everloving shit out of me. It didn't help that I watched it in the dark in the middle of the night on the sly because I wasn't sure if my…

I live on the Kansas side of the Kansas City Metropolitan area, and it seems that the rivalry is less city-vs-city and more Missouri/Kansas City Proper vs. Kansas/Johnson County . From what I gather, Missouri is full of the arty, cultural, city-dwellers (plus the crime-ridden east side) while Kansas is full of the…

A friend of mine got me started on it about a month ago. I'm still catching up (I'm actually one episode from The Sandstorm, which is what my friend raved about), and so far it's a blast. Gives me sweet memories of Eerie Indiana and Twin Peaks. I love the evolving storyline, and the quirky music is quite soothing…

Why did you even think it, @Dikachu:disqus ? Why??

Et Tu, Lurky?

I'm kind of surprised that so many people are irritated by Tyson's nitpickery. Is this a symptom of not liking people who criticize the things you like? Also, while one could call him a killjoy because "most people won't even see the differences" - well, then why ever try to get any movie as close to accurate as…

That IS weird.

This is true. The only crime NdGT committed is his lack of a spoiler tag.

Agreed!

Indeed, his hotness stirred something inside young me. You can whistle at me any day, Cap'n.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Yeats.

That is no country for old men. The young
In one another's arms, birds in the trees
– Those dying generations – at their song,
The salmon‐falls, the mackerel‐crowded seas,
Fish, flesh, or fowl, commend all summer long
Whatever is begotten, born, and dies.
Caught in that sensual music all neglect
Monuments of unageing…

I agree you need a merit badge. The amount of times coversation stops with "I don't remember" "Oh, yeah, that movie. *blank silence*" would've had me sweating bullets.

From now on, I plan on using brackets for all quoted conversations.
