My mind jumped immediately to Keith David, though he's probably not a big enough name to fit into the all-star casts Disney aims for with this new series of remakes.

Bring Jones back is my least favorite part of the remake. All of the live-action Disney remakes have felt rather derivative so far (though I will cop to kinda liking The Jungle Book), but at least they had some visual novelty in seeing actual humans step into previously animated roles. Here, you don't even get that -…

All I want is an Americans detour episode that focuses entirely on Claudia and Gabriel for 40 minutes. Hell, I could watch Margo Martindale and Frank Langella sit and talk at a diner booth for a whole season.

My guess, given Stan's knowledge of Amador's rampant horniness and the abduction of the CIA bureaucrat, is that he thinks the "female illegal" seduced Amador before killing him. That would probably be my running theory too if I only had the information Stan has.

I'm totally in the same corner. I live in Chicago and watched the whole thing unfold, completely bewildered as to why anybody would be opposed to the museum. I think part of it is that Chicago has a relationship with its Lake Michigan waterfront that I don't entirely understand (perhaps because it isn't all that…

As I recall, the plans for the museum included at least half a dozen movie screens, and Lucas said he intended it to be as much an exhibition center for classic cinema, art films, and cultural touchstones as a museum of art and film memorabilia. But yeah, opponents of the museum essentially labeled it like it was…

Clay Pigeons is fantastic and Vince Vaughn is fantastic in it. Even decades of acting futility isn't going to change that.

I think what makes it most feel like fan fiction is HOW it repurposes other Coen brothers material. I haven't watched the second season since I really wasn't that fond of the first, but I remember thinking that calling it Fargo is a slight misnomer, since it takes almost as much of its DNA from No Country for Old Men…

I believe the "jump ball" tiebreaker is only used for tournaments, and ties in regular episodes result in co-champions returning for the next day.

If we're going to transfer the cast of Django Unchained over wholesale I think Samuel L. Jackson is probably the better fit for the Sheriff of Nottingham, with Leonardo DiCaprio as Prince John.

Well, the people submitting their work have to categorize them, but there's no particular reason why SAG has to force shows into arbitrary comedy/drama categories. It's especially strange when they don't do the same for films.

I frequently enjoy melancholic, slow character studies. But there is a difference between shows that merely move gradually and shows that feel artificially stretched and full of filler. The first 8 or so episodes of season 1 were so full of seemingly random oscillating decisions, needlessly obtuse secrets for reveals…

The whole season could have been a very compelling feature film, but stretched out a full 13 episodes the entire thing just becomes a chore. Even granting that it does pick up steam toward the end, there was probably enough material for six hours max. Beyond that you get the languid mess of good actors given nothing…

What is it with DC/Warner Bros. slo-mo release strategy for trailers? It took a weekend of leaks before they put out an official version of Batman vs. Superman, and now they appear to be content for that to happen to Suicide Squad as well. Why do they drag their feet releasing a free advertisement for their movie that…

Also Christopher Nolan is a much better director than David Ayer is.

I can't quite tell if 31-32 is supposed to be a near direct remake of the movie Ida of if y'all just forgot that film existed.

Yeah, the defamation claim will be thrown out immediately by any judge. It's so stupid that it makes Trump's "iron clad contract" statement seem suspect just by association. There's a good chance Univision has some sort of morals clause in the contract that will let them opt out. And even if they don't, Trump won't…

They also have never made any mention of Jon Snow ever taking a shit. Does that mean we can't assume Jon Snow has a normally functioning digestive system?

Whitaker did try that. He once starred in a Criminal Minds spin-off on CBS, but mercifully the show only lasted somewhere around 10 episodes before getting canceled. Surprisingly you can still catch reruns of the show on Ion every once in a while.

Close, Davos Seaworth. But he makes up for it by also being known as the Onion Knight, which is such a weird title it's impossible not to love.
