Y'know, some people really like Jim Carrey. Like, *crazy* like: http://www.theatlantic.com/…

That would suck. We all need to go re-read "The Literature of Exhaustion" and realize that this po-mo stuff is pretty damned tired and mainstream now. Franco, if you wanna be edgy, attach a penis to your face again.

Man, I like Cronenberg (see avatar). I'm not expecting great things from this, though, necessarily. The guy's kind of a wild card on literary adaptations. I like David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch way better than Burroughs's original, but he couldn't save Crash (though what he could've done with that dead source material,…

See, I don't agree. For one, I think it's overly facile and dismissive to say that "everything is constructed"—although, sure, that's true on some level. Unfortunately, if you really take that view of things, the type of art that you get out is like Schizopolis at best (formal, funny, abstract), or self-conscious…

You know, I liked this movie OK. It was kind of funny. But the problem I have with this kind of art is that I think it's exactly as intelligent as the statement that you just made, TooLazyToFinishThisSenten. It's intellectually interesting in the cool way that academic discussions of semiotics are interesting, but it…

"Rajaniemi introduces new terminology even during the book's action-packed climax." Yep, this guy sounds like the type who could get a Ph.D. in string theory.

That Kenny Branagh did OK for himself in those Shakespeare pictures of his.

Y'all be ignoring the warm creamy middle, where generally our musicians keep their guns to themselves.

Elitist bullshit indeed. Why would they want to join clubs like that when they can anonymously join Internet clubs for free? Hey, there, DL! Dave? Mr. Lynch?

@Girard: yeah, woof. @Everyone else, I take it back—for this move alone. That scene was a hell of a lot sexier than any phsx class I've been involved with.

OK, so I should probably do a bit of research before I speak, next time. I'm off to watch the scene, as it's on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watc…

I'm not going to claim that my viewing habits are normal, but I wait for the high-end TV to come out on disk. Any other TV that I watch is strictly online.

Poetic Science
"Insignificance never gets better than a sequence where Monroe, still in her white ruffled dress, uses a series of props to demonstrate the theory of relativity before a delighted Einstein."

Paul Simon, Graceland era. Hey, it's foreign!

Everything is either AWESOME or it SUCKS! Forrest Gump isn't absolutely PERFECT so it must SUCK!

Hey, why not. I used to keep The Authoritative Calvin and Hobbes in the bathroom, and I've probably read it 100+ times. Watterson for king.

I hope it's Gale, right at the beginning of the episode. This wouldn't be a spoiler, unless you were going for a revisionist reading of the last episode of Season 3.

Squid and the Whale…yes please! I love that movie.

I think this is the case with 'hard' books. If I have to struggle to get through something, I end up re-reading in exactly the way that Ringleader's suggested.

Now…that…that's embarrassing.
