Man, his science is too tight!

I didn't think they could create a trailer that made a movie look worse than the first film, but god damn. You win this round, Hollywood!

I want to believe.

There are a few bad episodes earlier in this season, but "Simpson Tide" was the first one where I actively wondered what the hell piece of shit I just watched. Its story and jokes contain all the worst elements of The Critic, and were unfortunately harbingers of the show's future.

There are many actors who can convey active thought while remaining silent. Ryan Gosling is not one of them. He constantly looked like he was a second away from saying, "line!"

One… quick… TWIST!

Isolated, it's a visually sexy scene featuring two beautiful women. In the context of the film, however, it's one of the hottest goddamned things I've ever seen.

"Alright, so I made a mistake! One mistake! Can't a man start over!? ….. Maybe I should make another mistake. Maybe TWO more…"

God, that's good too. They really nailed his mix of anger at the situation and joy for what he was going to do as punishment.

Having just re-watched the first season of Ren & Stimpy recently, I'm still amazed that those episodes aired on Nickelodeon. It's not the gross/toilet humor that is amazing though; it's the persistently creepy-as-fuck tone, which ranges from dark ("Civil War Log!") to "holy shit what the fuck was that!?" unsettling

Mulholland Dr.

Yes, if Happy Feet came out this Christmas and was amazing.

Yeah. The same YEAR. And they're so wildly different in style; how did Brooks manage to shift gears like that?

PUDDDMMM OMM DA RIZZZZSSHHH

The one really funny bit in "Dead and Loving It"

Batman's a scientist!

I understand that's the point, but it's authenticity did nothing to alleviate my discomfort and hatred of that kid. Intentionally baking a shit pie doesn't keep it from tasting like shit.

Every once in a while, my response to "where's so-and-so?" will be "I beat him to death with a rake.

Sounds like he's also the Mark Millar of television, although way less repugnant.
