Whether he’s “punk enough” or not, Barker can fucking hit, and his speed and precision is definitely what catapulted Blink to platinum status.

Plenty of disgusting white people food to pick from, and he didn’t even have to go American. For example, he could have used Hakarl, which is fermented shark meat that smells like dog piss. Can you imagine Icelandic people getting enough steam on social media to change that? No.
The good Clueless Gamers hit the same sweet spot for me as a great MST3K short. My favorite still has to be Hader/God of War.
I fucking hate that this is the first comment we see on this story. Just an absolute “Goddammit AV Club / Kinja” moment.
I could be wrong (I was very young), but didn’t people hate that song when it first came out? Like nothing could have lived up to Bowie + Queen, so it just got trashed? I’m glad it’s appreciated today.
Jetskis are the shit if you’re riding the waves correctly. Having only really done it once, I got to experience it both as a newbie banging against the waves and as someone starting to get the hang of it. They’re like snowmobiles with the prospect of sharks being underneath your feet.
Migos excel at what I like to call Balcony Music, which is music best enjoyed on the balcony of an expensive high-rise apartment while you’re drinking ridiculously overpriced champagne. It’s there to be in the background.
This is sort of akin to how Indian restaurants in Brick Lane don’t *have* to be good, they can get by on the reputation of the area. Some are decent, most are not.
It was difficult for me to get past the character names in this franchise, which I guess makes me an immature theatergoer. It’s not like Plutarch Heavensbee is appreciably worse than, say, Jabba the Hutt. Also these movies seemed to suffer from the same identity crisis that the Twilight movies did, but just…
Not to mention the obvious Reservoir Dogs stand-off shot, which has to go a long way towards Tarantino calling it his favorite movie of the last 30 years.
Gravity was a big ol’ blast in IMAX, and the silly plot contrivances only ever cropped up to further increase the tension, so I never once minded them. Perhaps the platonic ideal of what mindless entertainment can be, and as Tom mentioned, it was definitely refreshing to have it be an original film too.
Really? I always thought the rumor was that he had seen the movie and thought his character’s, um, portrayal was hilarious. Which doesn’t seem far-fetched.
The MacGruber movie belongs in the same rarefied air as Wayne’s World and Blues Brothers and this is all very exciting news
It’s pretty funny that a show casts 24-year-old models as 18-year-old high schoolers, then thinks “uhhhh what should we have them do? I guess walk a runway a lot”
I always thought it was a bit of poetic justice that the first Matrix debuted in 1999, and utterly clowned the shit out of The Phantom Menace - then its sequels went on to be nearly as leaden and dull as the prequels themselves.
It does depend on their capacity as producers, yeah. They didn’t just produce Spider-Verse for example, Lord had a hand in the screenplay. Then again, everyone involved with that movie was on top fucking form.
This sounds like some epic bacon mustache shit from 2009, but I for one am willing to give Lord & Miller the benefit of the doubt here, even if Mitchells Vs. the Machines left me a lot colder than it did some others.
If you were taught square dancing in school as a kid, that was thanks to Henry Ford and his paranoid delusions that Jews and black people were threatening to destroy white America with jazz. We’re all complicit!
Have to co-sign on Goldeneye. Helluva good time and between that and Casino Royale, Martin Campbell should clearly be in charge of introducing audiences to each new Bond.
I rarely believe leaked scripts are real, and in this case (I saw the tweet screencaps anyway) there’s a line where one of the girls says “moveon dot org,” which is a direct lift from Jennifer’s Body. That’s the thing that, to me, screams this is fake. What would possess Diablo Cody to plagiarize one of the most…
