I'd respond to this listing some exceptions (ugly actresses that have starred/are starring in big movies), but then I'd probably get an enraged response about how they're not ugly and I'm enforcing traditional beauty standards on them, or something. But yeah, the point is, there are some female equivalents of Kevin…

In my EXTREMELY anecdotal experience at a liberal arts college, the dudebro types seemed far less racist than the nerds, partly because we had a ton of Jamaican guys on campus and they fit right in with the dudebro soccer players and they were inseparable, and partly because things like the "objectivism club" were…

The way that disqus works, your post was buried under the "load more comments" button so I didn't see it before I replied to the same guy. Your list is great, besides the obvious lack of Blood Sweat & Tears!

Ha, yeah. :(

I think arguing that members of the band could be equivalent to slave labor is just as bad of an argument.

Ah, fair enough, I misread some of the comments in this thread then.

When 3/5 of the band members are black, and they've been with the band since the beginning without any known drama, I find it hard to believe that Dave Matthews is a secret racist. If he is, he must pay really well, and it's still certainly not sending a message to anyone that he's a white supremacist if the band is…

I dunno why none of them have been mentioned so far, but there were a ton of awesome 70s bands like Chicago and Blood Sweat & Tears that were all about the tight horn sections. Two particularly popular songs were Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4" and Average White Band's "Pick up the Pieces." I guess it could be argued some…

Yeah, DMB are incredibly racist, especially their drummer and violinist.

That Freaks and Geeks scene is my favorite of the entire series, and that's really saying something. I remember Maron pointed it out in the Apatow interview, too.

Well, considering he's going through a divorce (with 3 kids involved) and his wife just gave some very revealing interviews about it in the last week or two, I'm going to guess his mood isn't entirely due to this stupid movie.

Yeah right. The most impact Rex Dart, Eskimo Spy can create is making dastardly motorcyclists crash and then dump paint on their heads. Oh, and hitting Oscar Wilde lookalikes in the nose with model planes.

I wouldn't. Give me Watchmen and Dawn of the Dead and even 300 or Man of Steel over anything Bay's ever made, besides MAYBE Pain and Gain. This revisionism is bizarre. Zack Snyder might have just made a really terrible movie, and I believe all reports that Sucker Punch is terrible (I have no desire to ever see it),…

I don't really remember, I think they mostly just had ridiculous titles. There was one that I remember pretty clearly which started out as panels from the comic Calvin was reading and was done in a gritty, grimdark style in which "Amazon Girl" shot the spine out of the hero with a huge gun and then Calvin got zonked…

If there's anyone that screams "super hairy guy," it's Michael Chiklis.

Kate Bosworth in Superman Returns is the worst offender I can remember, though I was really bothered by Jennifer Lawrence in SLP and American Hustle.

Yep. The first time I saw it I was so infuriated by those first 20 minutes (especially the awful scene with Rainn Wilson) that I didn't even notice that it stopped being like that. I think I also freaked out about it being anti-abortion or something, but I think I was just looking for excuses to be mad at it.

One of the best changes from the book to the movie of Silence of the Lambs was taking out her romance with the entomologist guy and just making him yet another creep who stares at her with sexual pressure.

Audrey Hepburn is definitely some of the worst casting ever relative to how a character is portrayed in a book vs how they were portrayed in the movie, but she obviously fit THAT version of the movie perfectly. I never thought of Angelina Jolie in the part, but you're right that she matches the book's description.
