Oh, you wanna make fun of my typos? Do you know who I am?
NEVER NEEDED A SCENE MORE THAN I NEED THIS UPCOMING HAND-JESSE SCENE
Fuck the movie ending. The original – a boy realizing he's got only a few more years to live and vowing to eradicate the people who did this to him – is the kind of thing only Dahl could do.
Does Terms of Enrampagement count? Because if the Archer crew were to release an extended cut of that as a DVD extra or something, I would be on that in a heartbeat.
2 WTF moments that took me out of the episode:
- Asshole Journo taking a bump IN THE LOBBY OF THE POLICE STATION. IN THE FUCKING LOBBY. He literally gets some of that yayo up his nose, turns around, and introduces himself to the secretary. That's some next-level creativity – people probably thought that was nasal spray…
It kills me to say this, but I'm really looking forward to Drake's new album. Juicy J and Earl are also dropping new stuff within the month, and I can't wait.
Yeah, it'd be nice if more people could acknowledge that a rapper can do both braggadocio and social criticism in the same album or even the same song.
Y'know, my first instinct was to make some snarky remark about how that's typical AV Club reader behavior, but 1) you admitted it and 2) it IS a great album. So yeah.
His voice is a joke? I'm gonna need you to listen to the Gap Band and then write a 10 page paper explaining every reason why you're wrong. Double spaced, 1'' margins, and don't forget citations- I prefer MLA style, but I won't kill you if you go Chicago.
That got old super fast, though. And the harshness of the orange was always super jarring at the end of an emotional episode.
I mean, I liked this, yeah, but I didn't think it was revelatory. Too much of it felt forced (for lack of a better word), and I really didn't like the Bennett- Diaz plotline. I'll give Kohan credit for making the "waifish white girl glides through impossibly difficult situations" trope more palatable this time around,…
God, now I have to see this. If the line delivery's half as good as I'm imagining it, it's already my favorite movie moment of the year.
Phylicia Rashad and Lisa Bonet are waaaaay hotter than the supermodels in the Blurred Lines videos. Don't argue with me on this point.
You fucker.
I've been marathoning the show on Netflix for the past few weeks, and this nails the problems I've been having with Mad Men's portrayal of race. Great post.
Top 3 Pixar movies?
I'm going Toy Story trilogy (you're goddamn right I'm allowed to do that), Ratatouille, and Wall-E, in that order. The Incredibles juuuust misses that cut.
I really enjoyed this; it helped me understand some of the things that always frustrate me about the AV commentariat's attitude towards all things Kanye. Good stuff.
The AV Club never feels whiter and smugger than in the comments of a Kanye article.
Unquestioned highlight of the season: the look Janine gives Zoe when she finds out she's been sleeping with Lucas. Janine and Stomper, were my two favorite characters, as they were seemingly the only realistically competent professionals in Washington. Everyone else was almost cartoonishly capable or incompetent.
