In an ideal world, what would be the perfect bland family movie that you would hope to see atop such a list? To borrow a fantastic term I first heard in the comments section here a few weeks ago, a movie you could tolerate on "Guantanamo repeat"?

Thank you, that's exactly the type of thing that they should be doing more of. I've never seen the MTV show but perhaps the newer awards programs feel more comfortable with such experimentation.

The Grammys and Tonys feature singers and actors actually performing. Why do the Oscars and Emmys not have their actors actually act? I don't mean lame Billy Crystal-type stuff where he inserts himself into noteworthy scenes from the preceding year, but I'm sure something more imaginative can be done with the TV and…

Reunion!

With an awesome scene where he proudly shows Barbie the man who wronged him imprisoned in a goddamn crate.

There are a many direct-to-video animated Barbie movies out there. I've been forced to listen to many playing in the background.

Any casting suggestions? No adult actresses, pervs.

Name?—Barmen? Brobies? Why do I get the feeling that such a fan-base must already have found each other online…

I love the Wikipedia entry that tries to suss out the air-dates of dumped episodes after its cancellation:

Does anyone else remember in 2006 the news that Showtime actually offered to take over and produce more Arrested Development? There were actual quotes and everything from Mitch Hurwitz saying something to the effect of the show having run its course and that he decided not to pursue them?

Public Enemies also suffered from the worst lighting I've seen in a movie. It felt like a sequel to The Descent at times. I was so excited to see what all that talent would come up with too. Such a disappointment.

If I'm any indication, I think most people judge movies that are heavy in visual effects (usually going hand-in-hand with action), makeup and fantasy on a different scale. On some level, you believe that those somewhat superficial elements are there to distract you from a story and characterization.

Fun fact from the DVD extras: the nippled batsuit was all makeup.

I could have picked one that stood the test of time, but that's my point. We should be willing to look at Urkel and Balki in regard to how they were received in their time.

I think this is another one of those 'Marvel' movies being made by not-Marvel just so the rights don't revert back to Marvel proper. Not-Marvel is literally only making this movie because Marvel won't pay not-Marvel enough money for not-Marvel to not make this. There's no rhyme or reason to this otherwise.

Yup, agreed 100%. It kind of infuriates me when people insist that they never liked anything with a laugh track, as though there was a choice back then. Perfect Strangers and its ilk are entirely disregarded by some even though such shows provided a lot of enjoyment pre-Arrested Development.

Eh, Dr. J. said that he only ever liked Seinfeld. Now the latter is my favorite show of all time, and Fresh Prince surely doesn't hold up as well, but it's kind of unbelievable to claim that you only ever liked one sitcom with a laugh track. Unless Dr. J. is a kid who grew up in the 2000s when there were…

Not Frasier? 3rd Rock? Fresh Prince? What kind of monster are you…

I thought we hated laugh tracks…

I haven't read the source comment but, if anything, perhaps Whovian instead meant to say something to the effect of how some rapes are viewed as 'worse' than others, rather than rape being "morally ambiguous"? All rape is horrible yet, for instance, most would likely view the New Delhi gang rape and murder as 'worse'…
