Aardman tried that in 2006 with Flushed Away, which is CGI made to look like stop motion. But they went back to clay after that.

Let me fix that headline for you:

In case this site’s comment section (or the AV Club as a whole) doesn’t make it to 2024: It was an honor shitposting with you all on this continually sinking ship. We were the band on the Titanic, playing an infinite loop of Yakety Sax.

In response, Russell Brand took a page from The AV Club’s Godzilla show review: no comment.

I’ve mentioned this on some other post about True Lies and I know it is problematic, but I *still* reference the bit where Tom Arnold says something like “I came home, she took everything. She even took the ice cube trays out the freezer. What kind of sick bitch takes the ice cube trays out of the freezer?”

Agreed. Does the remake have:

I’d like to hear from definitelynotcaseybloysburner23.

Its like a bespoke artisan shit sandwich , I mean its all really well made , and uses the best available ingredients , but at the end of the day its still something unpleasant that leaves you feeling shitty and sick afterwards .

It depends on what you dislike about the original. The darkness and sexual violence is still there. I actually liked Fincher’s movie better, because I felt that the original got bogged down in the minutiae of the book’s overly detailed magazine publishing world. You could tell that Blomkvist was a total wish…

you’re not serious about the italian job? really?

Give True Lies its due - it’s not only a great popcorn flick (problematic anti-Arab sentiments notwithstanding), it’s also the first and last time anyone or anything has been able to honestly generate the word sequence “a hilarious Tom Arnold.”

Yes, everyone rightly thinks of the big performances of Williams and Lane in The Birdcage, but Hackman’s utter perfection as the straight man is what makes the movie, giving all of the lunacy something to play against. His confident obliviousness which eventually gives way to bewilderment as everything unfolds is just…

John has been been a very reliable actor for quite some time now (Harold and Kumar will turn 20 next year!) while not quite being a household name.

In better AV Club days, there was a recuring joke in the reviews about this show being called Goon. Still, I think I watched nearly every episode of it, and really enjoyed it.

Yeah, the man is a fucking god when it comes to film, no doubt, but surely even he realizes that the theater model as we know it is going away, so if he wants people to watch his fucking four hour epic then maybe bend for the theaters just a bit.  Especially considering has last four hour epic came straight to…

Eh, I have all the respect in the world for the man and his films, but Scorsese can fuck himself on this one. Build in a goddamn intermission. If every scene of your film is so important that it has be 3.5 hours long, then your choice is either building in an intermission or expecting theatergoers to miss several…

“People say it’s three hours, but come on, you can sit in front of the TV and watch something for five hours. Also, there are many people who watch theatre for 3.5 hours. There are real actors on stage, you can’t get up and walk around. You give it that respect, give cinema some respect.”

Yeah, I have a hard time envisioning it, but Hugh Jackman is a total musical theater dork like 90% of the time, so I would absolutely give him a lot of leeway. Plus, I’ve been pretty impressed with the atypical moves he’s made careerwise post-Potter. If he feels like he can do it and Marvel agrees, then I would be…

You realize his name has been tossed around for several years as a possible Wolverine replacement, right? This isn’t new, and acting like it’s just astounding anyone would think of him is just kinda, well, dumb? “He was Harry Potter!” Wildly, people can play different roles as adults than they did as kids, and as…
