The bit in The Wrong Trousers where Grommit has to lay down new track directly in front of the toy train he’s on so he can keep chasing the penguin is one of my favorite pieces of animation (of any type.) 

Since the AV Club was sold several years ago, Wiki Wormhole has been one of the few features that remained “can’t miss” every week.

The algorithm strikes again! 

That's to be expected, considering her very public "maybe women wouldn't get raped if they stopped dressing like whores" viewpoint.

Rabin’s post-AV Club writing has been hit-or-miss, but he’s prolific enough these days that his hits are still pretty frequent. Still, I almost wish he'd ease up on the throttle a bit to put more time into his bigger essays. 

Several of which have been covered here. 

At least he's not Chris Tucker

Seeing that movie after only hearing about it being a “bold, fake documentary” was fucking terrifying. I never realized how dark a movie theater can get until the screen started going totally black.
