Part of why I love Don Hertzfeldt's work is that it's "simple" looking but actually complex in terms of layering and movement, as well as being alternately hilarious and emotionally devastating. His films are a good example of how irrelevant the supposed quality of the animation itself is when you have real ideas and…

You're thinking of Celebrity Swingers.

I like this new strain of folklorish experimental stuff, because even when they're impenetrable or dull (as has been the case with some of the Ben Rivers films) they still work as mini vacations.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this show so I'm all for something else involving these same characters/actors. They were so much fun to watch that I didn't really care at all about the central mystery.

I don't believe in capital punishment.

I want the directors I love to make whatever crazy shit is in their heads, above all.

Hahaha. Wow, I've really made the right call avoiding this version entirely.

Indeed, and I am totally okay with that!

I love that we are potentially going to see sci-fi movies from James Gray and Claire Denis in the coming years. I never, ever thought I'd type out that sentence.

I'm glad it was mentioned here, as the way it pushes the grain on 16mm seems like the perfect way to counterbalance digital projection.

All Pulitzer winners should have to give special thanks to Bazooka Joe.

This is actually a pretty good fit for her. She's got a fun approach to melodrama that's perfect for nighttime soaps. I just wish Nashville were a little more Melrose Place.

The other one. Fabric Nelson.

Oh Marbles, will Gunnar ever forgive you?

The original ending for Prometheus revealed that the Alien was in fact…Jesus.

Meanwhile, Rich Hall thinks this suit could be taken in a little.

She's charming as usual in it but I think it's the movie that started Sandler's slide into safe, middlebrow mediocrity. The movies he made before it are much weirder.

Let me know when they do an episode about the LHOTP clown rapist in the woods. Seriously freaked me out as a kid.

She's totally adorable. That reaction when she suddenly realized what was happening made her even more so.

Billy Madison is a surrealist masterpiece. The Wedding Singer is overrated, 80s-loving dreck that has one excellent scene.
