I fucking HATE Trump but wish him shot in the head is a shitty look and makes the left look just as bad as the right. Also Jack Black does Tenacious D mostly for fun these days, he makes his money voicing animated characters for kids movies. He basically had to put the brakes down hard and back up or lose his revenue…

That’s certainly a take.  Not, like, a good one, but it is one!

Or DANCES in!

“You can thank the progressive wing of the democratic party for this fubar situation.”

The bigger problem I see is that the White House has gaslit the American people for essentially two years. Saying this was “a bad night” doesn’t explain the dozens and dozens of mistakes, flubs, bizarre comments, and just lack of awareness that Biden clearly has at times. When the Hur report came out the White House…

The tone of this piece is bleak. And accurate. 

Agreed. I can see how an aggressive fan could take it as a dig towards Swift, but I read it as Grohl using the massive cultural phenomenon that is the Eras Tour as a jumping off point for his own musings. I’d take the “we actually play live” as being in comparison to pop in general (or other older rock bands?) before…

It’s surprising for Grohl to be throwing such obvious shade Swift’s way, first because he’s clearly aware of the consequences of “the wrath of Taylor Swift,” and second because the pair have always been friendly in the past.

The Henson Company are good sports. They hooked local developers up with a demolition guy who’s fast and affordable.

I hope that building stays intact; it’s so incongruous with its surroundings and calls back to an earlier time. 

I was thinking about Ordinary People recently and how magnificent Sutherland and Timothy Hutton were in it. Not even to mention MTM (whose character is so much better developed in the movie than in the book, where she’s essentially a nasty black box of a character)

Those actors who can play practically anything are…

He’s great in Animal House, and is a similar scene-stealer in JFK. So long, buddy.

Great actor. Don't Look Now is a favorite. He's incredible in the last few scenes of Ordinary People as a man processing that his marriage has been dying for a long time. 

Brooks has said in the past that he’d do Spaceballs 2 if Moranis came back for it, and Moranis was signed on for a return in the Honey I Shrunk the Kids reboot (which also involved Gad) that got shelved during the pandemic, so maybe there’s a chance of Somehow Dark Helmet Has Returned.

I think John Cryer summed it up best in the Doc, writers are narrative addicts and the pithy term gave birth to a new narrative. Instead of talking about how many talented young actors are making contemporary and resonant work, everyone immediately starts talking about the undeserved adulation of a bunch of entitled…

We reiterate this sincere and unconditional apology today, for any offense caused by Mr. Schneider’s recent comedy set, at the Four Seasons Ball.

They look the greedy family that got pig-faced after wearing those masks on the original Twilight Zone.

For now, I’m just trying to be happy that this is likely bringing the film attention from a lot of younger people who may have never heard of it, and they get to be introduced to truly one of the greats of all time.

Honor Among Thieves was really just too fun.  It’s a shame it didn’t do the numbers it needed too.
