One of my favorite moments involving Oedipus was her over-the-top wicked stepmother, first seen casually pulling the wings off of a butterfly. She shows up at the hospital to angrily berate Oedipus for having the bad manners to be attacked by ninjas at their mansion and embarrass them all, causing a scene by being…

The always newsworthy sub-genre of "some random assholes said dumb shit on twitter dot com, here's 500 words about 8 dumb tweets we found" articles.

The typical McMansion:

New Police Story (2004) was a pretty dark and straightforward action film - he plays a cop whose whole team is wiped out by a gang of violent robbers who deliberately set out to confront the HKPD. In that, he and his team are captured after being ambushed and in a warehouse hideout the gang forces him to complete…

The trailer makes it look like "we remade Drive but as a basic Hollywood action film".

Unless they also release it on wax cylinder, dictabelt and gramaphone I'm not interested.

Whyyyyyy do people keep trying to hug people they don't know personally? WHO are the ad wizards who came up with this one?

Coworker walking up behind me the day after the Super Bowl: Wow, did you see those hilarious commercials, and what about Lady Gaga's halftime show?

Not completly sold on it but it does have it's moments. A couple of favorite riffs from the movies covered so far, and by couple I mean "two"

Yeah between that and his playing "an artist who improbably seems to make a living solely from books of his simple line drawings" this sounds like the sort of unbearably quirky indie movie that flowed in and out of theaters throughout the Aughties like an unending river.

The attempts at a live action Jetsons project become something of a living legend, circling the deepest, darkest abandon-all-hope pits of Development Hell since
before the live-action Flintstones movie, the one with John Goodman and Rick Moranis as Fred and Barney, right.

The fourth installment, John Wick goes up against a criminal network of Muppets. Just consider the idea.

There was that commercial for the "Urkel-Os" breakfast cereal which had that creepy little moment at the end. https://www.youtube.com/wat…

"It's called 'Fake SVU Summaries'. Made of a combination of Crystal Light and computer monitor cleaner and caramel. Last week I heard from the narc squad that a kid took some and the next thing she knew she was in Times Square thinking she was giving a TEDx talk on how 'Supernatural' fanfiction could help lead to…

If there's ever a franchise that needed to be put down, it's Pirates of the Cacophony, it's all endless movies full of CGI garbage and loud noises. I find it even more irritating than the Transfromers franchise.

Baywatch, after being cancelled on NBC, made a comeback in first run syndication. Nothing tempts producers of TV series more than, after success, making a spinoff and Baywatch was a huge success. Baywatch itself ended up with like, 242 episodes which was a long runner in that market.

Found porn is on the verge of extinction - when I was in middle school this pedestrian bridge near my house was a dumping ground, and once me and the gang found a huge box of only slightly water damaged cheap skin mags. We all had a look and a laugh, but one friend had very strict parents and he was trying to come up…

I saw an article somewhere, wherein a studio executive referred to the story of King Arthur, the general legend I mean, as an "IP".
