U-Turn is fun if not exactly "good".

He may not have the range of Phoenix, but Ferrell is a fucking great actor. He was the only redeeming thing in that wretched second season of True Detective.

I somehow saw that movie in the theater at a very young age. An odd experience.

Maybe you are, like me, finding it difficult to get excited about a Ron Howard film.

Not if you think it's Rustin Parr's house.

I'm still freaked out by the distant sound of a baby crying because of this movie!

Which, as I noted here the other day, was not in the original Sundance cut I saw first. The fact that he's standing in the corner but we are not quite sure why, but know for sure it's something awful, actually made it much scarier.

It's his fault he chose to direct the whole thing from a Winnebago.

There was this lady on Star Search who painted herself like a black-and-white cookie version of Two Face and sang duets…

Agreed. Moss is phenomenal in that.

It was, and Duplass is great in it. Never thought I'd say that but it's true.

Yes, me too, there's clearly a Demy influence in the palette of this.

I don't really condone torture, but in the case of reality TV stars, I'll make an exception.

This show would be great if everyone on it were people from other reality shows.

Cocaine vs. Cocaine! Steel cage match!

Good ol' Bonny Bear. Hope he brings the other Country Bears on the tour!

Pearlman always makes that excuse.

About a month after I moved here, I started bringing a jacket with me if it was going to dip below 80 at night.

Yep, exactly. That scene is not in the original cut and it's way scarier without the earlier mention of it.

I remember that little exhibit they built! Very cool, and a nice tie-in with the overall marketing campaign which has still not been topped all these years later.
