Commander Sulu would like to have a silky, baritone word about this, too.

It’s the rare Fosse with no real style to it, which makes it especially bleak. Nothing really identifies it visually as a Fosse. It seems like the darkness of the story overcame him that he couldn’t really even identify a bigger theme other than Snyder being a monster. Through 2020 eyes you can see glimpses of taking…

He was getting tons of pushback from everyone in the story, from Hef to Bogdanovich and of course the Strattens. Fosse’s insistence on making it anyway resulted in an especially mean spirited “fuck you” without having anything to say other than just reveling in the ugliness of the story.

Not only will they trash him, but they will also paint themselves as secretly being against him all along and working behind the scenes to keep it from being even worse. 

I love Bob Fosse’s work, but Star 80 is a tremendously difficult watch. Perhaps because it was made so soon after, there’s an immediacy and rawness to it without the benefit that distance would give. Eric Roberts gives a brutal performance, no doubt helped by Fosse seeing himself in Snyder, saying something like he’s…

Yeah he has an incredibly creepy pattern, which gets overlooked to paint him sympathetically in light of the Dorothy Stratten murder. But he dated Shepherd when she was 20, Stratten when she was 20 ... and then he marries her sister Louise when SHE was 20. Yeesh. Nothing illegal about any of it but gahhhh, it’s…

They’ll forget. It’ll be easy to think Trump is an anomaly because he’s such a disaster of a human on every level. Future would-be trumps would just go “yeah, I’m not that fucked up, he did it to himself, won’t happen like that to me.”

She’s willing to fuck Trump. That IS unusual. Truly a job most women won’t do (willingly). 

Made it even easier to steal music from Chick Berry 

After seeing the numbers they did on SNL this year, I am so here for this. That was such an exciting, joyous performance. And I’m obsessed with his two dancers, not just cause the one reminds me of Matt Walsh (though it would be awesome if Mike McLintock from VEEP went on to dance for David Byrne).

It seemed crazy until those wacky Republicans elected an addled, racist, sexist reality show host who wants to bang his own daughter. What a country! 

Time for plan C: Lady Allen, Woody 

“Fuck off, I’m full”

I’m waiting for him to do the Mr Creosote bit. 

Wait til Fox discovers what has happened to the lumberjack community after the Supreme Court LGBTQ+ ruling yesterday. 

The AV Club 

God I wish we could, but his protege is currently filling the Oval Office with ham farts. Cohn has been dead for decades but his evil still stains this country.

Their whole career seems like a series of quick decisions. According to them, they picked the original name after they took band pictures in front of an antebellum mansion. Like, they’re already taking group shots before having a name? Then they were like, “oh shit, we spaced on picking a name. Quick, what’s…

Look, Google is far more complicated than people think. It’s not like the good old days when you could just Bing or Ask Jeeves.

I also don’t get him and I normally wouldn’t care at all, except John Mulaney loves him. Apart from his sitcom, Mulaney’s comic sensibilities are impeccable so I’m not sure what I’m missing about Pete.
