With what we know about how Harvey Weinstein destroyed the careers of women who said no to him, I suspect it’s that she was definitely blackballed. I’d go as far to say that if a woman seems to have been in some movies that did really well but then disappeared from screens, I’d put money on that being what happened.

Possibly the most attractive person I have ever seen in a movie in her role in Caddyshack. May she rest in peace.

A friend of mine and I met her at a convention in Florida. She was just all smiles and loved having generations of fans. My friend got an autographed photo and now I wish I had done the same. We’re both going to miss her.

As I was watching that, I had a feeling Tillman would follow up “if you’re so smart” with “then why are you dead?”, but it was the addition of the word “so” that made it darkly hilarious. Graves isn’t just dead, he’s so dead.

This. Gator seemed to know more about what happened to Linda than Dot did. I don’t get my jollies from seeing people tortured, but if Gator backs Roy to some kind of end and then Roy turns on him because that’s what Roy always was, and Gator knew it...that’s just storytelling.

You knew he was a snake all along, Gator.

Mandy Moore is delightful. That is all.

I always ask the question of this type of fan theory: what would it add to the story? What would be the significance of it being a dream? For example, I remember reading somewhere that some people thought that Phoebe in ‘Friends’ was daydreaming about being friends with five other people she saw through a coffee shop

“It’s all a dream” or “The characters are all really dead/are in purgatory or something” are like 90% of fan theories I see, and they’re dumb.

What’s a Ziwe?

I feel like we don’t talk about Beverly Hills Cop enough in terms of series that went from awesome to terrible. The first movie is a stone classic, the second is mediocre 80s excess and the third is about as awful as any cash-in sequel you’ll ever see.

It’s all ridiculous, but I think there’s some genuine insight here into how the wealthy view the world.

They’ve tried to develop new characters, but it felt contrived and they were all basically invincible. The sisters aspect could’ve been interesting, but even that’s gone now. Just kill it already.

The biggest star who ever appeared in these movies was killed in the franchise’s very first scene.  I’m not convinced people go to these movies because of the cast.

lmao so now you’ve disabled comments on certain articles like the “future of video game movies” one? haha jesus christ

I take exception of the term “unproven”.

Sam Kinison was exhausting as Fuck! AHHHH AHHHHH!!!

This is great — something the “old” AVClub would do. While certainly people have been thinking about this performance lately for obvious reasons, I don’t think most of us really stopped to think about the actor himself (I didn’t even know his name) and how he got to play Napoleon.

We sophisticated types call it “gauche.”

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