But you see Your Martian Honor, that's what's so great about Willem. He can be in a very silly movie like BS but still be awesome. His character in that movie is preposterous but he makes it kinda work- like *spoiler kinda maybe* when he smacks Korean guy from Mad TV and calls him a fag for wanting to cuddle after

Last Boy Scout, with motherfuckin' Taylor Negron as the heavy. He did a great job but that was really interesting casting choice.

I think Red Arnall's "Cocaine Blues" as covered by Johnny Cash is the gold standard for songs about blow, followed by Grandmaster Flash's "White Lines." But I'm old…

Yo John Ashcroft, I'ma let you finish because I respect your principled stand from your hospital bed against unconstitutional wiretapping, but Any Given Sunday was one of the greatest movies of all time!

Mad Men is actually better than the Sopranos, I think, though not up to The Wire level. Haven't seen enough Deadwood to call that. Regardless, even if it is not as good as the three you list, that's like saying it's "only" one of the top 5 show of the last decade.

I am all for replacing things with Rose McGowan…

Jim, they made that movie without Foxx and Lawrence- except it was called Kelly's Heroes instead of Tank Robbers. It is awesome.

Frito, that nerd joke was tight, yo!

No, Jorge, I liked Any Given Sunday too. I mean, it's way over the top but c'mon it's Oliver Stone and football, two things that run on 100% pure hyperbole. Foxx was pretty good in that role, which it turns out is not all that much different from him in real life (minus the athletic skills)- e.g. his music career

Wait- is it the lesbians or the secretaries that like to be called Female Professionals? I need to know the preferred nomenclature.

The Grade
I realize this is a good way to provoke the usual debate about grades on AVC but I really am curious why this only got a B+. I read the review twice and there was not a single negative word in it. Every commenter that has seen it also apparently thinks it's the bee's tits or whatever.

Umm, I dunno. It seems like the interviewer was a douche too though maybe he was just pissed Seth was late. I score this "Double Douche." Now don't eat the big white mint…

Venkman, I hope you have an exception for Viva Variety!

I hate that goddamn Waiting on the World to Change song. I can just tune Mayer's usual bullshit out but I hear the intro to that song and am always like "Sweet, some Marvin Gaye, good one random radio station." And every time, like Lucy with the fucking football, I am betrayed into the auditory clutches of John

Nah, I dress like a gay biker bondage boy all the time. For Halloween I am going as either a Goldman-Sachs I-banker or Sarah Palin.

You fuckers- I wasn't going to look.

Will Marlon the Gorilla be gentle at least?

This was some good Hate- more than makes up for the earlier phoned-in Twilight fandom hate.

Thirded- come to NYC. I am a skinhead lookin' mofo (NO RACISM! OR INCEST!) in real life if that helps balance any Hebrew-phobia…

Helmet/House of Pain "Just Another Victim" is magically good- it's like combining gold and lead and ending up with platinum instead of… um, goldy lead or something.
