yes, good point. The Office at least stayed canonical

Wow. This one really gets me, especially after seeing Rachel Bloom’s post earlier announcing she gave birth and also that Adam was fighting this. Such a loss.

This fucking hurts. Adam was great. His contribution to Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is, frankly, immeasurable, and Fountains of Wayne were just wonderfully upbeat and optimistic while, typically for Schlesinger, very witty.

Damn right. One of the most beautiful, mysterious, mystical, and haunting books...yes, you’ve got to get around some of those 30-page descriptions of nets, but boy is it worth it. It’s all of human nature in a book.

It’s incredible that Melville wrote Moby-Dick at almost exactly the same time Dickens was writing Bleak House. The first great modern novel passing the last great classical novel in the night - like Use Your Illusion being released the same year as Nevermind.

Moby Dick is pretty much Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones books are weighed down by lengthy descriptions of food and banners that almost never matter to the plot. Moby Dick has a lot of nautical stuff that people might have already known before, but certainly don’t now. But there’s still a good story in there.

Moby Dick is frickin’ great. People are so weird about books.

Meanwhile The Godfather makes the ‘favorites’ cut?  Mother of god.

I could see people getting bogged down in some of the initial stuff about the prep for the voyage and not making it past that to the good stuff, but yeah, I’d say Moby Dick is my favorite American novel.

Moby Dick is frickin’ great.  People are so weird about books.

broke: 30 second Super Bowl Commercials
woke: 2 week long ARGs that culminate in a 60 second, $25 million ad where a “beloved” brand mascot comes back with a new coat of CGI paint and a more affordable celeb voiceover

I thought he was pretty good through out but to each their own

A lot of A-list actors have have personal script-doctors to ensure that the actor’s characters reflect their brand, regardless of the role. It’s why Will Smith has basically played The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in different guises for 30 years.

I’m yet to see a bad Michael Sheen performance. Dude always brings it.

“You’ll be back. There’s only one Wesley Snipes in this world!”

“No one calls it that!”

“I can’t go back to England. I’ll have to witness the London Olympics. We're not prepared! Did you see the Beijing opening ceremony? We don't have control over our people like that"

I always think about that story that came out about him punching Jeremy Northam in the face because he yelled at Kate Beckinsale for forgetting her lines. 

Denzel is maybe the only star who did something really different with Training Day. Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, RDJ, etc are all kinda playing themselves almost. It’s pretty common. 

So he’s playing it literally the same as he did Sherlock Holmes? I guess that’s what he thinks everyone in Victorian times was like.
