Korean cinema and TV have an ongoing tradition of neo-noir spy thrillers, probably because their proximity to North Korea keeps the topic fresh (unlike James Bond who left the Cold War behind decades ago). A noted Korean director tackling a Le Carré spy novel sounds like a match made in heaven. 

Unlike the other assholes being accused, I’m truly hoping this isn’t true.

Sooooo, where’s all the commenters who said that this was a useless gesture? That DIsney would never submit? That the AV Club was doing something futile? All the naysayers and cynics who said that you might as well do nothing since that’s what “solidarity” gestures do? Weird how when disparate groups unionize they’re…

Humans are very, very good at rationalizing whatever we do as for the best. “If I don’t do this he’ll ruin my career”, “as his lawyer it’s not just my job but my duty to be his defender and advocate”, “it’s not illegal to gather information and it’s not for me to assign blame”, “if they didn’t want his attention I’m…

I’m 80% sure Kroll Inc. is the corporate investigations company founded by Nick Kroll’s father and currently run by Nick Kroll’s brother.

“According to Farrow, two Black Cube investigators met with Rose McGowan under fake names, with one claiming to be a women’s rights advocate who secretly recorded multiple meetings with McGowan.”

He proceeded to pull a piece of paper out of his pocket, explaining that Ryan had a question he’d like to ask Nikki: “Nikki, will you marry me?” Hanks read...

I really didn’t see much of a backlash to this, at least not in the comments on the video on Youtube, which tend to be mostly liberal commenters. I thought it was funny. I didn’t think the Quasimodo bit played to his strengths but the Holocaust and Weinstein stuff did.

Yeah, I have to say, that monologue was terrible. Not a single joke, hell not even a moving picture, just the text “The uploader has not made this video available in your country.” I mean, can we even call that a monologue, then? Larry David definitely dropped the ball here.

I’ve watched a lot of cringe comedy in my time, but those scenes with Salomon and Maria were some of the worst (best) ever. I couldn’t look at the screen.

Yes, but neither of you know how to handle balls appropriately.

*raise your hand if your first thought on seeing the headline was “Well, that one was only a matter of time”*

“Are they trying to silence me?”

I’m going to withhold judgment here until we learn what Rapp was wearing.

I was just thinking last night how I think I am just legit terrified of cockroaches. Like not grossed out or irritated, but lately my reactions to them keep getting worse and worse, more extreme. Like screaming and running away.

Oh god, you’ve just reminded me - shortly after I moved into my new (ground floor, rental) flat, I woke up some time in the small hours to bright lights outside the window and some people talking. I remember a man’s voice saying, I used to live here, and feel like I heard them come near the window. I thought they…

But in particular, home invasions by stuffed bears, right? That screenshot is showing a innocent occupant opening his door to be confronted with an invading bear.

I’m with Katie on the gas station front, there’s this guy who hangs around our local one and he’s constantly asking “Gotta light? Gotta light?” and it really freaks me out.

The best part of this episode was Nathan’s “rock band manager” outfits.
