What I will say is that weirdly I trust these people to tell this story better or at least more interestingly than Ryan fuckin’ Murphy, that’s for damn sure.

I just couldn’t stand his whole spiel of “it is ME that is too good for Hollywood! — I am the genius they can’t handle!” which was literally the tone of every gushing article and interview about him a month or two ago, as if he was retiring on the laurels of his own massive ego. But I guess the tenor has changed a…

Wow the last time Shane Carruth was in the news and I called him a douche people got way defensive about him. Turns out he’s a way bigger douche than I ever could have imagined. Still fuck this guy.

I’m with you — the thing that’s bothered me most about the last however many seasons (beyond all the jokes becoming boringly repetitive and every character just shouting their quirks over and over again as dialogue) is the weird need to have them all be serialised or with big arcs, as if the creator is somehow obsessed…

I agree. My dad’s sister/relatives moved deep within a red state ages ago and have since become massive Trump supporters whose contact with him now is pretty much just sending him anti-liberalism propaganda or lite-Qanon bullshit through facebook every now and again. To my dad’s credit he knows he’s had to cut these…

I’ve talked about this with my dad, who follows one of those “Woody Allen is innocent” facebook fan pages. Everyone’s allowed to have their own opinion, but what I’ve tried to tell him is that there’s reviewing the facts of the case, listening to the arguments of all sides, and coming to your own personal opinion…

I just couldn’t believe his Last Supper spiel was in response to the question “what art really impresses you these days?”, as if he had to go so hardcore in his anti-moviemaking rant that what he likes more than anything the interviewer is trying to ask him about is a Leonardo Da Vinci painting.

Welcome to the internet, buddy! The marketplace of ideas and bad opinions!

Clearly we do not know the same people.

Is this still the guy who when asked to name something he was enjoying these days said Rick & Morty and The Last Supper?

Hey how bout a little fucking compassion.

You’re right — it worked for something like Salo, but even that seems like it’s lost the weight of a lot of its transgression over the years.

Geeeez, all the cast members of Nashville dropping off. Jeff Goldblum better keep himself safe.

National Anthem will also be produced by T Bone Burnett, The Hold Steady’s Craig Finn, and Breaking Bad’s Mark Johnson Breaking Bad was the name of a TV show, we understand if you’re confused because the other two guys are music people), with Burnett and Finn contributing to music and lyrics.

... him?

Growing up with my dad and brother it was mainly Blazing Saddles — specifically this exchange:

At this point I’m more inclined to believe that the stage production that ran for two decades must’ve been doing something right

I don’t know who to blame for Cats other than whoever it was who decided that audiences would have absolutely no ability to suspend disbelief about humans using costumes, makeup and performance ability to convincingly play magical cats. So in that way, I kinda empathise with the above statement about how the VFX…

Do you honestly think that there aren’t millions of other harder working musicians and songwriters with just a fraction of the fame this guy’s received for his 20% of a song?

That’s exactly the thing — I can understand people knowing who he is through the exposure from the Billboard controversy or even just through his online presence, but I’m still at a loss to how he can be considered anything other than just famous for being famous at this point. It’s almost like you don’t need to…
