And to think, if I'd read that sentence a couple days ago, it would have been disturbing. Now it's both disturbing and oddly reassuring.

Show up at the ski cabin where she's staying with her boyfriend and refuse to leave until she kisses you? Stand outside her window with a boom box over your head? Trade your own girlfriend for Natalie Dormer's underwear and then show up outside her house on her birthday?

Yeah, I don't really understand how anybody can realistically argue it's not about C.K. There are only a handful of comedians putting out stuff every year, there are only a handful of comedians lauded as geniuses, there are only a handful of comedians that are "at Cosby level"—C.K. is basically the only comedian for…

She didn't say it wasn't about him—she said something along the lines of people were jumping to incorrect assumptions, which obviously could mean that it wasn't about him*, but also could mean a whole host of other things (it wasn't about him jerking off in front of her but just doing something else weird or creepy,…

Be Anthony Byrne; I think that helps. Or at least look enough like him that you can lock him in a closet for a few hours, take his place, go somewhere dimly lit and hope she won't catch on.

The pageant's actually got a pretty weird recent history, and its future—at least on television—is by no means assured. (And if it's not on television, then it obviously becomes a much lower-profile thing.) It's been shuffled around from channel to channel over the last decade after declining ratings, and even became…

So he says that if he wasn't getting laid, he would become a suicide bomber. In the same article, he also says he doesn't date.

From my research, middle-aged Southern housewives who are mildly but not excessively religious.

They're fancy arrows, okay?

The television version is horrible, but at least it got a slightly better "adaptation" when The Phantom Menace stole its artwork to create their settings . . .

I'm gonna assume this means the AV Clubbers consider it non-regrettable.

Aslan is God; he doesn't need your bullshit food.

1960s, I think, with the rise of Balanchine? He was a big proponent of the ideal ballet form being tall(ish) and very thin with long legs, and the more famous he and the NYCB became, the more that ideal came to take over the rest of the ballet world, too. Definitely by the 1970s it was solidified as the norm.

They were along the lines of "I don't want to focus on gender, I just want to focus on talent."

Realistically at this point, budgets have gotten so out of control that almost nobody can reliably open a movie. But execs give a lot more excuses to actors who fail than they do to actresses.

The problem is that a strike wouldn't make a damn bit of difference for 95 percent of the movies out there. There are already so few female directors being offered work that the difference would be negligible. Losing female stars might worry Hollywood for a few seconds, but there's always going to pretty women who'll…

Given Jolie's recent comments on the Hollywood salary gap, I'd be shocked if she had agreed to be interviewed for this article.

1. I mean, feminism means that women have equal opportunities across the board, even when it comes to stupid shit like making Transformers movies.
2. The fact that the women quoted in the article think shlocky action movies are stupid doesn't mean all women do.
3. Those shlocky action movies are by far the biggest…

She wins, but then everybody realizes that the real enemy this whole time was the white walkers.

I thought I'd long ago lost the ability to be surprised by conservatives, but the extent to which this has been politicized—that people who consider “Christian” their primary identity would deny even baby orphan refugees a chance to come to this country because they might turn out to be terrorists? It's insane. There…
