That was an utterly baffling scene when I first saw the movie that I could not stop laughing at.

The fact that there were so many awful people in Deadwood and Hearst still manages to be worse than many of them blows me away

I had the high score on an arcade version of 1942 for the better part of six months until they started turning the power off in the evenings, it just about killed me.

The Naive and Sentimental Lover was my personal struggle with le Carre… it was also not a spy novel and I think that's why I found it so tough.

They play a large role in The Russia House as a kind of opportunistic agency who refuse to see the forest for the trees.

If France hadn't been at war with Britain, America would have never declared war because the sheer power disparity between the two nations would have meant that Britain would have annihilated America without even breaking a sweat.

My theory on that debacle was that it was the project itself failing more than anything about race. Had it been a half decent spectacle it might have been able to withstand the criticism.

Congratulations, you just caused a decades long guerilla conflict that will have caused untold suffering on both sides.

There are parts of Michigan and the old northwest that had huge southern migration earlier in the century and that could maybe(?) explain the accent.

I didn't mind the ending so much as the lead up to the ending. There was a whole of meh before he got in the tower.

It wouldn't have mattered, it was all for show. Ramsey just would have gotten ALL off his archers to loose on him.

The bilingual dog park in Montreal was the best one I heard, but only because it's something that seems like Montreal would do.
