I always figured they'd set in a Police Academy, especially since that wasn't one of the fake sequels.

Have you seen the movie? It's a lot more than playing dress up. You're being more than a little dismissive.

I don't think in this particular case that the narrator is losing faith. Right before the "and he takes and he takes and he takes line" he talks about the "glory when he took our place" referencing Christ's death on the cross. He understands how great a sacrifice that was, but he still struggles to understand why God

The test isn't perfect - Looper has one of the best female characters in a genre movie (or just most movies) in years with Sarah, but technically only fulfills the first requirement - but it is still effective in showing how few movies have any good female characters.

The last half an hour or so certainly was. Wish there had been more buddy cop

SPOILER: DC Pierson cameo. The fact that he showed up in a Marvel movie brought me so much joy.

I loved Telegraph Avenue, mostly because I found the prose so enjoyable. It was a bit hard to follow at times, especially at first.
I was given Yiddish Policeman's Union for Christmas and will probably
start reading it sometime soon. I need to get back into reading.

I felt so nostalgic last night when I rewatched this and the title sequence began.

As a Christian, I think movies like this have the completely wrong idea. They cater to Christians with messages so unsubtle and executed so poorly, no one else can get anything out it. It seems so obviously like the wrong way to go about them, but they keep making them so either they're just doing it for the money

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it was Hannibal

I don't fully hate Laurel, and I don't think her character needs to die, but if they kill Sara off just so Laurel can replace her, I'm going to have serious doubts about this show. Ones that I haven't had in a long while.

Just being reminded of how great Terrier's theme song is made me sad. I started watching the show after it was cancelled, and about halfway through, I spent every moment not watching the show depressed that I was inevitably going to finish it. When that theme song kicked in, the depression went away and was replaced

The Republic Commando books are also great. Only Star Wars books I ever bothered reading

I only bothered watching part of the second acting school video, "Family Time", but that seemed to be the joke - spending time with your family takes away from focusing on your career and you will come to regret it, etc. I haven't watched the rest of it or any of the others, and I have seen some of his twitter, but it

The Girl in the Fireplace is my favorite Doctor Who episode

I thought this was for Roland at first which would be pretty poor casting, but he'd be pretty perfect as Eddie Dean. Still, I don't like the sound of Akiva Goldsman adapting

I saw that Inside the Actor's Studio episode awhile ago and gained a lot of respect for Cooper.

Donnie Wahlberg was great in Band of Brothers, but that's all I've seen him in.

Walnut? Walnut tree?

Or people starting actual fight clubs
