What meandering crap. Don't front like this is an article comparing American Hustle and the Wolf of Wall Street and then start talking about the fucking Bling Ring and the recent Great Gatsby adaptation. We get it, you have a big vocabulary and have seen a lot of movies. Bully for you.

The first Paranormal Activity was completely ruined for me by the advertisements. You can't put literally the scariest point in a slow-burn horror movie right in the previews. If I hadn't known about the drag-down-the-hall seen before I watched it it would have been great.

That's my favorite jump scare ever.

The scene where the guy drowns at the end stuck with me. Being just below the surface of the water and unable to get out is freaky as hell.

I was one of said morons, and was happy to be proven wrong. Season 2 blew Season 1 out of the water, starting with Charlie-as-vietnam-vet.

So am I the only one that thinks Roy Phillips is looking for a beard?  He divorced his wife under unknown circumstances, he says something to Gillian about knowing "weakness and sin," and he has not made any sexual overtures to her at all.  I read him seeing her heroin paraphenalia as realizing that he could

Particularly when it's a heinous cover song sung by one of the main characters on the show who has a very recognizable voice and is also his wife.  If this show goes on another couple of seasons they will just start breaking out the in-show musical sequences.

Same boat here.  Still the most consistently dumb and infuriating show I watch on a regular basis.

I think they said it was a few weeks along, so it would have happened before she was in jail.

#2 would at least make Wendy's actions make some modicum of sense.  The whole last season she was all "I need to see my baby," and then at the beginning of this seasons she was suddenly like "oh wait, NM."

I took it as August saving face by killing the guy who killed Pope's daughter (something even Pope himself didn't get to do.)  August mentioned that keeping Clay alive would make him look weak in his conversation with Jax, so this is what Jax threw in to sweeten the deal.

But it was advanced do much this week!  He wrote down two more names!

Joanie simply cannot stop playing whores…

So now all of a sudden we're holding Breaking Bad to a standard of absolute realism?  That wasn't a problem when, say, Walt managed to wring $50k out of a hardcore methed-out gangster in season 1 with his magical explodey-pellets?  It wasn't a problem when Jesse taps an ATM machine and it starts spitting out money?

They've done a really good job of showing how Hank's swagger is just his cover-up for some deep-seated insecurities.  The way he acts is absolutely believable if you've ever known a cop—the frat-boy back-slapping culture of law enforcement churns out lots of Hanks.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Mike give Jesse the gun when he defended himself from Fring's men?  Meaning it may have been loaded with blanks?

Iceist.

I love me some John Carpenter, but it's hard to get scared of a movie where the villains are literally Pirate Ghosts.  All I can think of is Scooby Doo and/or the South Park episode making fun of Scooby Doo.  It's pretty much the only one of his films in the run from Halloween to Big Trouble in Little China that I

The Thing wasn't really a remake, it was a prequel.
