If you're going through the Elm Street series, the 4 hour Never Sleep Again documentary is essential afterwards. For the writers, director, and producers to speak so candidly about terrible movies like The Dream Child make for a pretty fun watch (probably moreso than the movies themselves).

I liked the pilot a good bit going in with lower expectations. (Mainly because I wish Kevin McKidd was the ginger du jour for prestige cable dramas instead of Lewis). I think the core of Lewis/Giamatti/Siff/poooosibly Akerman is solid. Plus I dug the cable drama ringers like Carlo from The Sopranos and Remus from…

Considering his undeveloped Amazon pilot was also met with negative reviews, Carter's probably going to go down as a "wellllll, you had to be there in the 90's" guy. Like Kevin Smith and Jim Carrey.

This is some rare original content from the AV Club on a somewhat interesting piece of pop culture ephemera. I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth on this one.

"Its a lion! Its huge!"

I can't be the only one to doublecheck that you weren't a gimmick account based on that comment. Like the Avenged Sevenfold guy.

It was the film equivalent of a properly cooked TV dinner. Not good, per se, but all the ice had thawed nor was anything burnt.

As soon as that Scottish guy appeared on screen in those Han Solo scenes, my only thought was: "how many issues is his comic book mini series going to be?"

The moppet-infused PG-13 action chase at the end of Beyond Thunderdome is the methadone to that addiction. The first half of the movie is awesome though.

Practical special effects. They really built all those cars and blew them up in the desert. That and the weirdness where no edges have been sanded off the strangeness of the people and the world.

I've mentioned it here before that there's pontential sequel/spinoff series about Dreifuss family navigating the sleazy underbelly of Hollywood in the 40's waiting to be made that would be a must watch show.

Watched the series through for a second time last year and I'm afraid to say that I don't think its aged as well as I'd hoped. One would think the period trappings would future proof it but some of those music cues were especially egregious.

I'd actually say BMD is a cut above the Slashfilms of the world. Faraci is a bit too much at times but at least he is able to string some coherent thoughts and opinions together.

Un familia.

The track "Brothers in Arms" is the best piece of film score, i've heard in years. To think that John Williams who slept walk his way through an unmemorable Star Wars score got a nod instead is a shame. (And I love all the old John Williams scores.)

Maybe irony doesn't exist in this Sherwood Forest.

Infinity War Part 2 will feature 67 different generic hordes of cgi enemies. How many clans of nondescript aliens and robots can fit in one movie?

Three Musketeers will see your Bryan Adams and raise you a Rod Stewart and a Sting.

What hath Batman Begins wrought?

I don't want Taron Egerton to happen nor do I think he's going to happen.
