AV Club: bringing you breaking pop culture news, eventually.

…Followed by a miracle removal treatment a season later in which all the tattoos are gone without a trace.

MacGyver

I'm glad this guy's directing the Blade Runner sequel, but I still wish it wasn't happening at all.

The final scene would have been great in a better movie that had earned it. Unfortunately everything that came before was just a crime biopic going through very boring motions. It's also an instance where an understated Depp performance doesn't work, because George Jung was very charismatic.

I thought we'd all agreed that Blow was a bad movie, and that he wasn't particularly good in it? I know when it came out a few teenagers said it was great, but it wasn't.

Ballard's my favourite author. It doesn't really bother me whether Hollywood takes notice of him or not (Americans were notoriously ambivalent of his books to begin with), but given how potentially cinematic his novels are I'm surprised he hasn't had the Philip K Dick treatment yet. He has a huge back catalogue of…

I like the episode but I feel like this is about the tenth article AV club has written on it.

It is absolutely a 'bad time at the movies.' The plot doesn't work, the characters are lackluster and the CGI environments are distracting. I'm actually surprised it doesn't have a prequels-esque reputation by now.

"The festival’s other slick, overlong Hollywood period piece about famous gangsters, is Legend…"

I enjoyed The Corrections but haven't really followed Franzen since then. Apart from his Get Off My Lawn routine, can someone explain why we're all meant to hate him? That's not a loaded question - I'd sincerely like to know what's fueling much of the internet bile.

There's a british version?

All words and no taste make cappadocius a dull poster.

If there's any truth to that then getting into acting is a great career move for a male - once you age out you'll get tons of headlining offers because the competition's so sparse.

It's not Batman!

I watched in good faith, but it's as vapid as every other vlogging channel ever made. I rarely feel old over pop culture trends, but the tolerance teens seem to have for this kind of thing does exactly that.

I don't know why everyone slates it. It's not as imaginative as Trainspotting but it's much funnier. Hard to envisage a great movie being made out of it though.

It's ok. It's very much 'play it safe for the 50th anniversary,' and it's a shame they seem to be sticking to that mentality with this this film.

Craig hasn't had much luck with his themes. The first two were awful and Adele's was serviceable at best. I doubt Smith's will buck the trend.

Like most people I groaned when I heard the news, but having Disclosure on production duties does provoke a slight bit of curiosity.
