You should work on your empathy skills then.

Yes, irony is for "the one who knows better". It's inherently douche-y.

Fine, if you enjoy getting shit in your eyes, then have at it. Glenn Close should be put down.

Thank you.

This list is weird… it would have made more sense if you listed like 5 more characters, and therefore listed every stoner character ever. At the amount it is now, it just seems oddly long and cliche and impersonal.

Yesssss, very glad to hear the SVU comparison, very smart. But, I don't think many things are more pulpy than Breaking Bad. It hides it well, but if you look to the basics, the show is PURE melodrama.

Don't you dare watch season 4. Worst thing ever. If you're not too into the show, but want to see it at its best, I would skip all the way to season 5. I really can't remember much before season 5. I know people like to emphasize the overall narrative, but it really isn't that serialized. I mean, it is in the sense…

I was looking for a place to complain about Glenn Close. By far, the worst thing The Shield has ever done. Just horrible writing, and even worse acting. I think it was in her first episode that she arrests a guy and gives him a pat down in the most mannered way possible. I'm not one to notice bad acting, but this was…

Don't talk about Dan Harmon's wishes about things post-season 3… come on…. why you have to be so depressing? 

guess im too hip for the room.

This is totally totally fair, those elements are deeply embedded in Christopher Nolan's movie and demonstrate his fetish for badness. This is not like one of those The-Shining-As-A-Sitcom things on youtube… this is legit reason for hating Nolan's compromised, silly movies that can't manage to sublate the screaming,…

Love when fresh parodies of well-established-yet-still-unfolding-things choose to parody an element of the thing which is only recently iconic. This is an important step in canonizing this montage as Good Shit, and all the while, they could have made Gus jokes or whatever, which was so two years ago.

I know, the song is actually really really cute, if you can detach yourself from reality and enter into their distortion. The instrumentation, the structure, the vocal style, the content … most cliche shit ever… and they thought "hey this is pretty good" at one point … like, what kind of adorable little mind could…

uhhhh being on at midnight is way below him. why would he want the job? he has a dream job with FX, a method for creating new material each year, etc. he's going to give all this up to go on after jimmy fucking fallon? and then he'd be forced to put out a show a night, and not by choice but because that's what capital…

Yes. Bonnie and Clyde is only important historically. Its no sign of genius to say "let's take that European stuff and do it, but do it a little bit more American-y".

Your taste has been colonized.

Ding ding ding ding. Hollywood tells us what we like and what we dislike and everyone listens. They have the power, very little freedom of choice. We just get to pick out which of the zombie movies we like best.

You are correct to assume that most of what the article was talking about was likely accomplished by the technicians on set and by post production people in post production. Robert Redford is an actor, not a filmmaker. He is not an auteur. He didn't write the script. And I very much doubt that he was bubbling with…

I find the difference between the name "John" and "Jon" to be wider than the distance between "Ralph" and "Sally". I would DIE to get inside a bad speller's mind, just so I could observe their unobservant mind doing its thang. One of the few dark fantasies I permit myself.

Wow, that last paragraph of your post is so disgusting I can taste it.
