I believe the film you're searching for is called Capturing the Friedmans?

Hm. I watched a tape of that a few times during high school, and I thought it was thirteen kinds of deep and awesome. But then that's the age when one's most susceptible to thoughts of misplaced awe, so maybe I'd be harsher on reassessment.

Not very impressed by his VHS count. I have 40+ of just the Star Trek original series, and 3.5 bookcases more!

I basically liked the black market idea, too, although it seemed a little fishy to me that Adama was able to shoot the hell out of that kiddie pimp and have literally zero repercussions. I mean, that's pretty weak.

If only that fucking Gaeta hadn't networked all the computers….

So this could be the "which season is my favorite BSG season" thread, if you want. Mine may be a minority preference for Season 3, which was the one that was most ambiguous and political. As the show went on, I liked the Adamas less and less, and the twisty, desperate political manoeuvring that followed the…

"Crazy and Hateful" = "Having Stock Mormon Views"?

I work as a teacher in Arizona, and I see this stuff more than I'd like to. I wrote some jr. high kids up the other day for calling each others "Jews"—as in, an unspecified bad thing, since I'm pretty sure they didn't have a very clear vision of why that might be offensive, even. This caused me a lot of headache when…

Yep. Another documentary that's intriguing in the same way as Capturing the Friedmans is The Staircase, which shows a guy who's pretty slimy but who I'm still not sure if is a murderer or not.

They should've gotten O'Neal to drug him.

But Teas, if you just waited around and then finally got married, you could fart continuously. Really: continuously. I should know.

That's a Woody snap.

I agree completely. Super is surprising and witty, comparitively. During Observe and Report (look at that scene quoted by @avclub-97a852e97e6976d4c8de066865715c59:disqus  where Mom accuses son of making Dad leave), I felt that there was a point of going for the obviously unacceptable thing, whereas in Super the viewer…

I actually like Freddy Got Fingered, but not Observe and Report. The difference is in the use of realistic conventions. Freddy Got Fingered does well for itself by announcing its anti-realistic ambitions early on, allowing Tom Green's idiot man-child to engage in all kinds of delightfully subversive acts. The…

That's what I thought of it, but what do I know.

Without getting to spoiler-y, I can think of a few other reasons to use a stunt cock for that film…

Because I apparently think all French names look the same, I thought for a moment that this was a film based on the Bernard-Henri Levi scandal, where he attempted to take down Kant by quoting the philosopher "Jean-Baptiste Botul," who it turned out never existed except as an academic prank. It was hard to believe that…

"African Americans to Horses Beloved!" Yes, I see what you mean.
