"If you voted for Trump, as far as I'm concerned, you've lost the right to be considered. Anyone who wants to try and cater to these people or reach a consensus with them or even convert them are wasting their goddamn time."

"Johnson is 2016's Nader."

"Connor has now likewise inspired the American people to “lose the weight” of totalitarianism"

so what's the over/under on when av club drops the pretense and just has a whole section devoted to regularly saying why they think the president and anyone who doesn't denounce him is a devil?

^THIS^

people are preparing speeches that they can deny having prepared later on. they need somewhere to give them.

they shot some scenes with a dog, but it couldn't swim, and they thought it best just to leave it on the editing room floor and never speak of it again.

"I think if you take away the songs and the dancing and the general va-va-va-voom feel"

"does this mean that Gibson's days in the wilderness are over?"

my grandmother told me of the time when there were no arts because the government wouldn't pay for it. there were no galleries, no stories, news, nothing. everyday i think of the world she had to endure, i wonder what kind of monster would want to murder big bird, and i weep for my children if they were to succeed.…

you don't seem to know what a libertarian actually is.

it's amazing what people are proud of anymore….

i was underwhelmed. i wonder if gaffigan is one of those comedians that wears on you over time even while you acknowledge his obvious talent?

is it possible to have loved it and hated it too? i loved it for all the reasons that have been discussed, but hated it because it almost seemed like it was made to be a suitable series finale if it doesn't come back, and that's bad on two levels.

i liked it, but found it somewhat underwhelming given the many other excellent victoria biopics that were previously produced. that's not it's fault though. it's just that as fascinating as certain material may be, sometimes you can revisit it too often, and would be better served with an original idea.
