So did 25 other writers. LOOK IT UP. Or read Harry Knowles' review, in which he mentions how the film borrows from tons of other sources, like John Carter of Mars, Tarzan, Robinson Crusoe, etc. This story archetype existed before the 50s; this political situation still goes on in several spots around the world.

@Run Rabbit Run: awesome.

Bobby Moynihan is not actually that big.
He's more 'husky' or 'overweight' than "the fat guy." Thus, he doesn't play "the disgusting fat guy" a la Chris Farley. I used to know him, he's not very tall. And I was proud that he rocked the Snooki impression, although I will say that they gave him some really good lines…

He seemed really sick, what with the scratchy voice and pained expression in almost every sketch. Or maybe he's off taking the pot? What with the going to Columbia and acting in a soap opera as performance art and all.

Picture of her online…
…shows some absolutely horrendous plastic surgery. Is that really her? And why DID they do a Brittany Murphy impression on SNL; has she been in the news? You know, before she just died and stuff.

Holy Crap!
Is she the first cast member of 8 Mile to die? Really the first?!!

BEST OF THE SEASON SO FAR?!
No way. "Intervention" all the way — salting Gail the Snail has to be the most hilarious thing on television THIS YEAR.

It is kinda weird that PPL would sell off a firm whose greatest asset is their talent and yet not communicate with them at all, especially the CFO who holds the power to dissolve their contracts. But being the complete and total massive-ego pricks that they are, it probably makes sense.

Trudy REALLY needs to get herself into a bra and panties in the season 4 premiere or there's going to be drama on my side of the screen. No more of these cover-up green teddy things. Alison Brie gots herself a body, yo.

Can anyone top Jon Hamm's John Ham?

Anyone else worried that Weiner is taking it in Sopranos divorce season direction?
Do we need another hour drama exploring the horrors of divorce? No. And I can't help but notice the parallels with the Sopranos….

I thought The Polar Express was a dud until 8 weeks in I looked at the chart and it was up to $160 mil. These movies have legs; look at any Dreamworks Animation film. BUT…I saw Carol this weekend and it's interminably SLOW in parts. There's entire sequences that do nothing to advance the story. It should have been…

Did you *really* spit coffee on your monitor?

please choke on a calculator and follow it with your death.

SERIOUS ANSWER: cutting those pointless, painfully on the nose introductions to each category would save time so that they could actually let people give speeches. You know what I mean:

STEVE MARTIN AND ALEC BALDWIN WILL HOST
Just came in on the wire.

@Jay: I know exactly the moment you're talking about in the Heineken episode, but my memory is that he still didn't say it. I was of course waiting for him to actually say the words but I remember he did not. I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first time my memory failed me. If you've confirmed it recently, let me…

Thank you Miller for your 6,655th comment. They just gain so much more value once you've crossed the 6,655 mark.

Ditto. It was not "bad editing." JohnsRUs is a "bad human." Just bad at being human. Bad at…everything. Fucker can't even breathe correctly. I'll be here all night.
