There is a film which tells the Amy Fisher story using cut-together footage from all three of those TV movies of the week about her. It's called Triple Fisher and it is incredible.

There are settings other than "talking" and "withdrawing", you know. They include "listening" and "learning".

In fairness, if you're looking for a camp aide, who better than Nathan Lane?

Just a guy and his farty boner corpse, nothin' more, nothin' less.

Yeah, David O Russell's career was really wrecked by that sexual assault charge. Why, his last film only got one Oscar nomination!

GET CRONK
GET SAVED
GET SMUG
GET FUUUUUUUUCKED UUUUUUP

I think we're all missing the most appalling part of this premise: somebody has allowed Sharlto Copley to do a British accent again. Why. Why. Why.

Shows what you know! I read an editorial just now that says comics aren't just for kids any more!

This whole controversy really annoys me. I come from an economically depressed region of Britain, and I really related to the song when I first heard it. I didn't even know it was about a real place at first, though the "Wal-Mart" line made me suspect it was based on observation. But I certainly never thought it

It's quite strange to read something written from a liberal viewpoint that ends up arguing Wal-Marts are great because they create jobs and white and black culture shouldn't mix. (Also the implicit assumption that rock music is "white" culture, which never stops bothering me)

I didn't wanna specify one, but yeah, that was going through my head when I typed that comment! Amazing song.

Tons of Blur songs, but particularly 'Badhead' and 'For Tomorrow'. Also literally anything by Dexy's Midnight Runners.

See also: Sucker Punch and its 1950s schoolgirls dreaming - as every 1950s schoolgirl did - of mechas, burlesque shows and steampunk World War I action scenes.

It's basically the same worldview that powers GamerGate - "Writing reviews that don't perfectly match my opinions is UNETHICAL!" The difference is, in GamerGate's case that was an inept attempt to retroactively justify a harassment campaign, whereas people complaining about film critics really seem to believe it.

But they told me Forest Whitaker was the last king of Scotland!

Yeah, complaining that the entire point of the source material has been subverted is such a nitpick!

I could have gone with it if they'd changed it to a UFO crashing, or something else that shows the threat is bigger than humanity. The idea that humanity would band together and forgo their differences to resist an American superweapon is absolutely bizarre.

But you've sobered up since, right?

I don't think it has to be that clear-cut. Miller's said in the past that DKR got away from him in a way - he meant it to be purely gritty and real-world, but as he started writing he couldn't help include all the silly bits of Batman and DC mythos he loved so much. I think the politics of it work in a similar way;
