‘If you can see past Al Jolson’s predilection for performing in blackface...’ would’ve been a better way of phrasing this idea.

I guess Schimkowitz was going for...reveling? Maybe? They were reveling in the funny courtroom sketch? I find nu-AV Club writers tend to not let mundane things like “knowing what words mean” get in the way of the flow, you know?

Speedy is a folk hero to many Mexican Americans.

I thought AV Club would, for sure, mess up the top two. But they actually got it right. 

Them not including the handheld entries is a huge miss, especially since those are the only 2D Zelda games since A Link to the Past. When I hear “all the mainline Zeldas” I think “ok so you’re not including the CDi games, Link’s Crossbow Training, or the Tingle game”.There are Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks too,…

The HBO show The Last of Us has a cover of it they play in I think 2 episodes, over the ending credits. 

Dang! I hope you dance your ass off, having a great time.

“Home” might be my absolute favorite of theirs. Dave Gahan’s voice is absolutely heartbreaking in that song.

It’s not that rare for a British band to crack America since the Beatles landed. LOL

I Feel You is another one I was definitely surprised to not see.

In Your Room

They are far more beloved in the US than the UK. And they are going to have one of the top grossing tours of 2023. But OK.

Solid, but I put more of it on William Sadler.  Without his Death, the movie would really suffer.

Bogus Journey deserves better than this.  It’s a solid sequel.

I had the profound (mis)fortune of knowing Courtney for 40 years. In the early 80's, she burned thru the entire city of SF, ripping off everyone I know, myself included. She’s always been a horrible person. How anyone looks at her with any respect at all befuddles me. 

Yeah, at least they put it last on the list.

Rest easy forever in paradise Kazuki san.

What a BAMF. Rest in piece, Hero.
