That I'm less sure of (and am probably not the right person to judge), but it did feel a bit sillier/more cartoony than the others.

I think it's because you have to really be into Stillman's style, especially when it comes to dialogue, and I think a majority of the filmgoing population can't handle it. I'm one of them. I extremely dislike all of his films that I have scene (Metropolitan, Last Days of Disco, and Damsels in Distress) because they…
That beach scene was really tough for me to watch. It felt so real and so horrible. I just saw this movie last weekend, but I would feel comfortable putting that sequence at the top of my list for best scenes of this decade so far. (SPOILERS?) At first I thought the baby crying on the beach was maybe a bit too much,…
That creeped you out? To me, that's less creepy than if he were actually her husband. He was just a little boy who got mightily confused emotionally by a set of letters.
Uhhh… what ending did you see? I saw Nicole Kidman crying on a beach.
How very Occidental of you.
If they can keep building in quality the way they did from season 1 to season 2 (and it sounds like they do, from this review), I would definitely put it up there with golden-age Simpsons, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and orignal-run Arrested Development. It's brilliant. The only show on TV that I'm excited to watch.
I didn't think I could possibly be more excited for this show to come back, and then I read this article. I need to seriously temper my expectations or there is no way I won't be disappointed. This is arguably the best show on TV right now. It's nice to be able to watch a show written for adults that isn't a fucking…
That's really what I love about it. On the one hand, it's just fucking funny. On the other hand, it feels like an incredibly realistic portrayal of what American politics are like (from a Brit!). I like to bring it up whenever people talk about House of Cards, which is arguably the least realistic depiction of…
"the joke about Black Jeopardy always going up late is not an example of it being written from the inside"
I think maybe I'm just not getting what "written from the inside means," but if you think that's a white person joke, you haven't hung out around enough black people. Also, black people are allowed to have a sense…
DOGVILLE, MOTHERFUCKERS.
If that's true, it should be noted (as you have done), but if it isn't, that's a fucking horrible rumor to spread around. The kind where a woman directs a lovely, easy-going 22-minutes of comedy so of course a man who knows what he was doing was right behind her all along. Please note, my aggression isn't toward you,…
The joke has Neil deGrasse Tyson spinning in his grave.
You were doing so well until "Moonrise Kingdom."
This entire article is built around around an incredible faulty premise. The cinemascore rating wasn't very good, but you're assuming so much about what actually put audiences off. I'm guessing if you actually asked the people who gave Drive such a low grade, they wouldn't say anything negative about this scene. If…
Bonus day for the trainwreck that is Manderlay or GTFO.
I should like to see this whoring bed.
Italics are for Italians. I'm American (which I think is the equivalent of wingdings or strike-through).
Thanks. *winky face*
As much as I would love to see Wasington, and as much as I think Dogville is right up there with Mulholland Dr. as the greatest film of the 00s, I completely agree about Manderlay. What a monumental artistic failure. Still, its essential premise about democracy makes it worth something. I'll just sit here and blame…
