So more like Woody Allen then?

And Shu Qi, who is simply breath-taking.

They are super-duper familiar with the Mad Max series, which is why they are so angry that "a piece of American culture [is] ruined and rewritten right in front of their very eyes."

It's even worse than being flat: they have short hair.

So the "I'm not sexist I just work with and cater to sexists" defense?

"I have no idea though how Safety Not Guaranteed and (500) Days of Summer could land you Jurassic World and Spider-Man."

"Until a female version of James Cameron come s along, Hollywood will look on female directors as a risk."

I'll admit I'm not sure it is the right approach, but I feel it is important to show that dictators are buffoons. Chaplin (and Monty Python) did that with Hitler, so do memes of shirtless Putin. Nothing annoys, and declaws, them so much as being made ridiculous. They want respect, they want to be seen as important, as…

Make that three of us.

Asians are often pretty racist to one another. Not sure how this is supposed to be an exception to Snidely's point.

"Palestinian Chicken" from season 8 of Curb Your Enthusiasm also got a well-deserved A+.

Other Voices, Other Rooms is definitely Southern Gothic.

John C. Wright, who got most of the nominations, is a conservative Catholic. I can't tell what his view on evolution is since his prose is unreadable. He's sort of for it but not entirely? If you want to try to understand, here's the link.

I'm honestly surprised this tweet hasn't featured more prominently: "Originally when men proposed they went down on one knee so if the woman said no they were in the perfect uppercut position."

And that douche went on to to be a screenwriter for "The Boy Next Door"!

Oh, I've learned far more from comic books than I ever have from Rawls.

Holland, that scarce deserves the name of land,
As but th’ off-scouring of the British sand;
And so much earth as was contributed
