I think The Iron Lady is ten times worse than Crash, which is dumb and heavy-handed but at least put together adequately. The Iron Lady is utterly inept in terms of both story and production. Phyllida Lloyd makes Paul Haggis look like the second coming of Kubrick.

I could have sworn that it used to link directly to the article. Did I just imagine that?

I know that it could go drastically wrong in the future, but so far, I'm really liking both kids. They both seem nice and well-adjusted, but not overly precocious or annoying. Paige hiding her face as Philip did his little line dance in the shoe store was really cute.

Thank god, I was hoping it wasn't just me. I know she's a good singer on a purely technical level, but as a performer, Jennifer Hudson is indeed terrible. She sings every song the same way—loudly and with overbearing melisma. There's absolutely zero nuance in the way she sings. And her acting is just flat-out bad.

Exactly. There's nothing wrong with her as a character, but everything about her and Raylan's relationship was awful and dragged down the show.

I found that really annoying. Maybe it's because I'm a full-time four-eyes and I'm subconsciously jealous of anyone who's not, but does anyone actually do that with their glasses?

But how would he feel about getting his nipples pierced?

Or Benny Goodman's verison of "Sing, Sing, Sing," even though that was a few years before the war.

Did…it…bother…you…how…she…seemed…to…speak…at…an…unnaturally…slow…pace…?

I really disliked the Raylan/Winona relationship because the writers seemed to think that the best way to show that they loved each other was to have them bicker all the time. I absolutely hate that trope, and while I didn't have any problem with Winona at the beginning, I was glad to see her go just because their…

Charlize Theron would be a great choice. I'd also be happy with either Jessica Chastain or Rachel McAdams.

The first time I saw Colonel Blimp, I sobbed uncontrollably during the scene with Walbrook and the immigration officers. One of my favorite scenes in any movie ever.

I assume they had to turn down the gig because one of their members couldn't get the time off from his job at the seafood restaurant: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik…

Me too. I was expecting it to be mentioned way further up in the comments, so I thought maybe it was just me.

@avclub-64f027640f63616a277e92096313264f:disqus Right, I think we agree here: that as long as movies are being made the way they are by the people who are making them and they keep making the money that they're making, then there is zero incentive to give more and better roles to women in a manner that would even out…

Hey, there's really no need to be so mean about Britney Spears being fired from The X-Factor.

Ah, I see. That is kind of amusing.

Their profits wouldn't be hurt, because most movies that make money star men. The only way their profits would be hurt is if audiences suddenly started refusing to go see movies that star men. And you think they care about looking like hypocrites? Again, unless that somehow starts costing them money as well, they…

Magnolia Pictures, the studio behind "Compliance," refused to send screeners to Academy members (which is pretty much the only way most of these people ever watch movies), so Dowd spent something like $13,000 of her own money to have the screeners made and sent.

You didn't care for McGarvey? I thought Anna Karenina's cinematography was stunning.
