I don't think the Hitchhiker's movie quite captures the nihilism of the books, and the first time I watched it, I thought it was a failure. But taken as its own animal—a sunnier, more cheerful animal—it's actually pretty good. (Except for Zooey Deschanel; she is a total misfire as Trillian.)

Come and See is the perfect rebuttal to the idea that you can't make a war movie without glorifying war.

Oh, this was a great interview, so much fun to read.

I was never into the party stuff, but dammit, I want to hear her new music. It sounds like it might actually be my jam! It seems like there's an interesting artist there who's been trying to break out every since Dr. Luke (spits) pigeonholed her as "fun".

I'm too lazy to dig up all the detailed rants I made about it at the time, but I hate it because it took an absolutely fascinating piece of history (told beautifully in Philbrick's book of the same name—seriously, it's a GREAT non-fiction book, you can't put it down) and made it as bland and formulaic as possible,…

FUCK THAT BULLSHIT MOVIE

Hell or High Water was fantastic.

I'm glad the book and the movie exist, if only for the sheer quantity of giggling I did through this review.

Yeah, this. My dad fortunately was not afraid to tell me I was pretty when I got all teen insecure at him about my looks, despite my parents emphatically not raising us to put an emphasis on physical beauty. And that was exactly what I needed at the time.

I know you're not being facetious, but…it's because she's a Clinton, and the GOP has waged open war on everything Clinton since Bill had the effrontery to be elected president in 1992. Hillary Clinton has been stuck with every single last second of her husband's sins, perceived or real, ever since.

:( :( :(

My older sister is older than you and about to try, and, just. Sincerest good luck. *superstitiously cross fingers for you both*

I can't personally attest, but by popular comment, yes, it is that hard for people who like each other to screw each other on the regular once they're mutually responsible for taking care of 1+ tiny pooping, crying human children. Congratulations on being the fuck-bunny exception.
