8 episodes in and I've decided this review is unduly harsh. I'm thoroughly enjoying it so far.

Wow, he's from my hometown. I wonder if my stuntman friends know him. RIP John.
I'd venture to say that's pretty limited. That example has a lot of stock footage for this preposterous subject and is filmed like reality TV. Anything more realistic?
I wish I could have been a fly on the wall for the editing process. Tarantino probably would have stretched it out for hours longer if he had his way. This was as much a masterpiece for him as it was for Sally Menke. Kill Bill was the second to last movie she edited with him. I don't think that it's a coincidence that…
Exit Wounds.. you're exactly correct.
I remember this era of movies fondly. Kill Bill, Oldboy, Ong-Bak were awesome. I remember hearing that Cradle 2 The Grave was terrible, and the author made no mention of Steven Seagal starring. Hard to believe that Michael Bay began mounting the offensive that year. Very influential year in developing my cinematic…
I thought the flashback was sloppily executed. The "field trip" was poorly explained. Was this private school hosting public school students as potential enrollees? Scholarship opportunity? Some posters insist that these field trips are a real thing. I have never, ever heard of anything remotely similar to this taking…
I get it, at least on the surface. My big issues are this: as a native New Orleanian, I am very familiar with the Cash Money/No Limit saga. Wayne and Birdman were inseparable. I've been less up on the latest news about the music rights feud, but my biggest questions are:
I still don't understand why this silly contract feud is preventing him from releasing his music tied up with Birdman. I just don't get it.
Surprisingly not as bad as I thought it would be. Weezy's golden stretch was from Tha Carter to Da Drought 3, and all albums and mixtape in between. I think that ship has long sailed unfortunately.
Excellent album from an artist I've been supporting for a long time. I've noticed it's been MIA for a while now, too, and always wondered about. I saw him perform with Killer Mike pre-RTJ and he performed a bunch of the songs from FanDam. It was awesome (obviously). I visited the merch table afterwards and picked up a…
You mean ATL right? I'd like to see it. My favorite show of all-time is The Wire, which has a primarily black cast and has a mostly objective tone when it addresses racism. I understand that satire needs to skewer something, but I'm hoping it will do it in a way that won't be off-putting.
I noticed the review said that the series format gave room for it to breathe in the ways the movie couldn't. I'm going to watch the show; to me the series treatment of a movie is neat and can often surpass the original source material in quality and enjoyment (see: Fargo). I love a good satire, and I hope the series…
"Objectively bad" is too strong. Personally mediocre might be more apt because some people seemed to have enjoyed it. The film was very beautiful and well-shot, and many of the actors give it great performances. I'll give it that. My main criticism with the movie is that it has such a litany of social injustices that…
What a pithy response, person from the Internet.
I'm wary of this show for 3 reasons: the movie was objectively bad, the word "microaggressions" is dumb, and the review gave this season an A while hardly mentioning much about the cinematic merits of the show and focusing instead why this show is "important" socially. I'll give it a shot though.
I'm a big fan of vaporwave, and thought the review was spot on. The descriptions pretty much nail the aesthetic exactly. I don't think the tone was was antagonistic. I thought it was an objective look at an underground genre with a steep learning curve.
I had personal bag milks back in the 90s for my elementary school lunch.
Has anyone mentioned Bill Lumbergh, president of Initech and Peter's boss from Office Space?
I vote New Orleans. There's quite the intersection of art, crime, and history.
