Get this guy to a doctor…
…something inside Seth must be dead because Bill Watterson's books "didn't mean anything" to him…

strikes me as oddly crypto-rascist…

Hrm…
"Listen, everyone in the Middle East would be back to being sand French, you know?"

one of the best hip hop acts of the new century…
that's all I really had to say…no firstie intended…

one of AVclub's favorite punching bags…
Mr. Willard Smith's "Summertime"…obvious, yes…and yet, there hasn't been a summer since 1991 when I haven't wanted to bump that…

I nominate all of 3 Feet High and Rising…

That 60 Minutes piece took what little wind there was in The Soloist's sails…

The Hustler…for a new, dumb, century…
That's what the trailers make this look like…but Mr Montiel is no Robert Rossen…and Mr Tatum is certainly no Newman…and …Zulay who???although, I am curious to see what Terrence Howard does with the George C. Scott role…I suspect it won't quite cut it…

Ignore what I said…how about something from Paul Auster?

it's soft as doctor's cotton…

and without thinking about it…I've created a heroin trilogy…

Three recommendations…
I'd suggest Homeboy by Seth Morgan…but it's out of print and tough to find…

In retrospect, yes, Robert Downey Junior…especially in The Pick-up Artist…

this explains a lot…

for you non-New York market kiddies…

Thanks…really…

TV movie about demons living in the fireplace?
It used to run constantly late nights…in a time before cable…that creeped me out as well. Does this sounds familiar? What was that called?

Frightening double feature for a 7 year old…
M.A.S.H. & The Exorcist…

Everyone raves about The Killer Inside Me…yeah it is good…for my money, I like The Kill Off the best. It's almost the exact inverse of KIM…one man vs an entire town of murderous lowlifes. Yeah, AVClub I gotta say that's a fail on the Jim Thompson advice.

Louis L'Amour…
a damn good writer by any measure…also wrote crime fiction. I was surprised to discover a big fat book of his shorts stories in the hardboiled style. Highly recommended.
