If it makes you feel any better, I was convinced for the longest time that Charles Durning played the rich Jeff Lebowski in The Big Lebowski. I even made a $5 bet with a friend over it. It was especially embarrassing to lose that bet since I'm a Coen brother superfan and my friend doesn't even like them that much. I

"some of the SS members should have had roles in DCCU films starring the good guys"

I think this is an issue where how you feel depends on age. I'm 40, so I go for Road Warrior, whereas I'm guessing most younger people go for Fury Road. There's just something stripped down and grungy about Road Warrior, where Fury Road just feels too polished and glossy for me.

No. People fainting. It's hot out there.

I love all the "where are they now?" scenes at the beginning. And then the plot kicks in. I think I would have preferred a movie where they quit being ghostbusters and just get on with their lives. Or maybe just a whole movie with Chloe Webb's character.

Not true. Thanks to watch lists, we know where he is at all times.

This is where I have to disagree with you. You say Scott Pilgrim is a mess, but Hot Fuzz is the most ungainly creature in all the Wright filmography, in my opinion. Two hours long, with about five different climaxes, and it can't decide if it wants to spoof action films, slasher films or creepy small town films. Don't

I always thought you "I was excited about this movie, but now I can't see it since the AV Club doesn't like it" people were only joking.

Her crime is that she somehow became immune to the Stepford Wife reprogramming all female, blonde Fox News anchors are forced to undergo.

He seems to be suffering from Dan Aykroyd Syndrome. It causes tall, skinny comedic actors to fade into obscurity and suffer dramatic weight gain.

I want my kid's movies to be more like the films of 1970's auteur directors, dammit!!

Yeah, I really don't see why they couldn't have just done a Robert Altman style multi-character movie about what various pets do during the day, instead of this Brave Little Toaster, epic journey plus learn a lesson about friendship horseshit.

Straw that broke the camel's back maybe. Before Heaven's Gate you had The Message, New York, New York, 1941, Sorcerer, Apocalypse Now. Not to mention Popeye following right on the heels of Heaven's Gate.

What the article doesn't mention is that a bunch of victims and friends of victims tried to sue Warner Bros., Christopher Nolan and even Christian Bale. Fuck, just go ahead and sue the estate of Bob Kane while you're at it.

I like to imagine you were in the middle of giving a eulogy for a departed relative, paused, then said, "Snake Eyes' is one of the stupidest fucking movies I've ever seen."

I've always wanted to know what Edward Norton would look like as a ferengi.

Basically, if you go down the path of revenge, it'll mess with your head so bad you won't even be able to have sex with your wife anymore.

It's basically the same game, especially if you're the kind of guy who waits until he's married to fart in front of his girlfriend.

Yeah, like I said, I enjoyed the comedic elements (the orientation video, the "jewel thief" movie) but had no idea how I was supposed to feel about any of it.

Being John Malkovich I didn't get, though I laughed alot. Adaptation and Eternal Sunshine are two of my all time favorites. Synecdoche, New York, I found, was a depressing slog.
