The story’s already got a horrible ending, where instead of just being a story about a bad date that contained some interesting ambiguity it seems like the author went “oh, just to make sure everyone thinks the right thing, I have to insert a ham-fisted scene of the guy flying off the handle and revealing himself as a…

Athough I wish the guy well, the primary care doctor in me needs to weigh-in on his comment about PSA testing. In short... its complicated, but not every man should regularly have their PSA tested. In an average risk population (meaning, men without a family history of metastatic prostate cancer), false positives are…

You’re free to interpret anything you want but don’t keep challenging the actors, writers and directors to admit that your interpretation is canon.

I know I’m repeating myself but I think the message has been lost. It’s like if a series based on 1984 adapted the book in season 1 and by season 4 Winston Smith and Julia and special guest star Liev Schrieber as Goldberg are leading the prole revolution to take London back from Big Brother, all set to a Rage Against…

No show has ever needed an end date more than this one.

Not that it invalidates the larger point, but I think the reason people praise TSAM’s sweetness is because it’s balanced against the nastiness and raunch of the movie. In that, TSAM is a bit of a unicorn, because the Farrellys never quite got that balance right again, and people have been happy to call out their…

When Stiller goes for the eye-poke and the dog blocks it, I die. I just die. That little paw... lmao

I think it was the “holy shit, I am going straight to hell for laughing at this” aspect of this movie that helped make it a monster hit. This came out at the same time a little show called South Park was also taking off to runaway success, so clearly there was something in the air that had audiences primed for this…

That is definitely there but Mary is sunny and goodhearted in a way that makes her Cool Girl stuff feel like honest extensions of her personality instead of poses. She also hangs out with Magda, who is not exactly a Cool Girl accoutrement, because she likes to. But most of this, again, comes back to how great Diaz is…

Boy, reading the summary of Mary’s character traits in this post, she’s exactly the “Cool Girl” skewered in Gone Girl (thinking specifically about the book in this case).  

And, lo, Caroline edges ever closer to doing Shaun Of The Dead.

I can sorta see multiple angles on this.

On the one hand, any artist forcefully rebutting why LGBTQ folk might see themselves in a TV-depicted relationship like the one between Bucky and Sam is going to reasonably get pushback. ESPECIALLY if you’re going to forcefully rebut an underdepicted minority group. And there’s…

He probably could’ve phrased it better, but I agree with the underlying sentiment 100%. It’s absurd that every male friendship gets distorted into a potential gay relationship, even when there’s no evidence beyond the relationship being just a male friendship. Happens with female friendships, too (see, e.g.,…

I’m not him (that you know of), but in re: your question:

It’s certainly a choice.

So, I’m assuming the pitch for your article was “rather than have someone give any real analysis of this thing I’m only tangentially aware of, I’ll just write about myself, because it’s guaranteed the readers will care more about my personal ignorance than the subject they clicked on the headline to read about”?

As someone who rented cars for an entire year while working out of state, the amount of cars I got in and immediately returned because they smelled horrible was insane. I was pumped one time because I got a 370Z and then immediately disappointed that it reeked of smoke. I wouldn’t be surprised if the next 10 people…

I absolutely love this show. It disappoints me it gets such little coverage here. Glad to see it get highlighted. 

That’s fair enough, but on the show he was actually called out for his crimes, in public (during a Congressional hearing), to his face. He lost his position at NASA and essentially became a pariah. That didn’t happen in real life.

I really admired his work ethic, taking a variety of interesting roles, no matter how big or small. His philosophy was you never knew what might come from the film. Network was for him just one or two day’s work.  Many actors might have passed feeling it was beneath them to take such a small role.  He jumped at the…
