Three words: commensurate with experience.

Fuuuuuck. Really, the gated snare is making a comeback? I was so happy when it went away. I always thought it was such a strange fad that infected everyone during the 80's - and not just bands from that era. Even Pink Floyd adopted it on A Momentary Lapse of Reason.

Agreed. Years ago, before I had even seen the film, an ex girlfriend brought the album on a long drive. I dug it right away. And it was great finding out that Air had already been around for a while and had several albums at that point. To this day, they're one of my favorite bands. In fact, I saw them in San…

It's interesting to see that other people have had the same frustrating experience as me when it comes to explaining anime. I get why it has a bad rap - so much anime is terrible. Whether it's sexist portrayals of women, derivative storytelling, or just bad animation, it usually comes off as childish and odd. But the…

I just really like James L. Brooks. Spanglish was panned, from what I can tell, but I still love that movie. His next one, How Do You Know (which, irritatingly, does not have a question mark), I will admit was just a bad movie. It was a strange experience seeing it in a theater, because I remember something about the…

As the author points out in the article, this was one of those rare movies that people saw repeatedly in theaters. I saw it twice, but I knew of people (my mom's friends, I think) who saw it at least five times in theaters. As to why they would bring me with them again, now knowing about the nude scene…maybe they…

When did it become a thing not to like that movie? I'll admit I haven't watched it in a few years, but I remember it being really good…except I guess casting Skeet Ulrich was a little questionable.

Funny, that's how I feel about every Spike Jonze movie. In concept they're great, but the music is always so damn folksy and indie. It immediately turns me off of the movie.

I was in seventh grade at this time, which, unfortunately, means my taste in music was…not great. I literally listened to, and purchased EVERYTHING MENTIONED IN THIS ARTICLE AND MORE. I still have the Compact Discs from Tower Records to prove it.

I saw it with my parents. And I was sitting between them in the theater. As soon as the nude scene started, both of them frantically tried covering my eyes. So I didn't get to see anything. We went to see the movie a couple weeks later, and after we got our seats, right before the trailers started, I said I really…

Dude, that's exactly what I was saying from the start. Way back, when it was rumored that JJ Abrams was going to helm the project, I was really hoping they would just turn it into a 10-13 episode limited series. Then, with each new development, I lost more and more confidence in the project. But who knows, I Might Be…

Even though the Dark Tower series is comprised of seven books, at around five thousand pages, It, which is a single book, is over a thousand pages. It makes sense that it would be the longer movie. Though I am concerned that a movie with the scope and grandiosity of the Dark Tower is under two hours…

I'm currently commissioned to write the Untitled Connect Four project. While I can't give away details of the plot, I can confirm that Cara Delevigne and Jake Paul will star in the movie.

In the inevitable live action remake of Akira, Tetsuo (who will probably be played by Ryan Gosling, or maybe someone from the Glee cast) will definitely be given the Hollywood treatment, whereby he is no longer just a dumb yet likable protagonist, but ends up being the hero of the entire movie, who gets the girl,…

Then I guess Star Tours at Disneyland falls into that category.

Thank god! How did it take this long to realize that 3-D fucking sucks? Look, even though I think 3-D movies are the lowest common denominator in film making, I get that a lot of the tickets are being sold to teenagers, adults with really bad taste, and people who don't wear glasses. But the thing that repeatedly…

That's true. But adaptations are not reboots. Some of the best movies are based on books and comics. Such as, Ghost World. The Shining, Gone With the Wind, and The Exorcist, to name a few.

Holy shit, my list of movies to see this weekend is the same. I even have the same reasoning for Atomic Blonde. Of course, I had to make sure it wasn't a remake, reboot, sequel or prequel before committing to seeing it.

Here, here. I think the Emoji movie was made to inspire schadenfreude in all the AV Clubbers. I think you can apply that word to a terrible movie being taken to task…

Jonny Greenwood's score, among so many other things, made this movie. In this era of forgettable film scores, this one not only stood out, but has lodged itself firmly in my brain. At the risk of taking up three paragraphs slobbering over P.T. Anderson, I'll instead leave this link of Greenwood performing songs from…
