Petyr and Vaerys are basically the same character, give or take a penis. And both of them invariably remind me of one of my favourite Community quotes: "If you're conspiring against everybody, you're not conspiring against anybody-You're just doing random crap!"

"I thought I snapped his Gregory!"

And the Dick van Dyke Award for Terrible Mockney Dialogue goes to…

You are now aware that Jemaine Clement spells his first name without an 'r'.

What gets me is that it looks like a movie that was produced on something approaching a respectable budget (telenovela money, at the very least) and yet it's so aggressively, bizarrely terrible in every other way that there's a kind of cognitive dissonance. It raises so many questions that it has a strong curiosity

Or the fucking Chainsmokers

It's kinda dumb to make that sort of headline if you're a white guy yourself. I mean, the implication is clearly that there are too many white guys (named Jimmy) holding down talk show jobs. But the amount of white guys (named Sam) holding AV Club Newswire jobs is clearly fine.

It's owned by Univision. Clearly just a SCAM by immigrants. SAD!

Which, in a very weird way, makes him a better actor than Sir Alec Guinness

Not really, they were pretty good by post-Connery Bond standards. If you can look me in the eye and tell me License to Kill was worse than Moonraker, A View To A Kill or any Brosnan Bond bar Goldeneye, then I guess we watch Bond for entirely different reasons.

Fun fact of the day: Tom's Diner is the same place as Monk's Restaurant in Seinfeld, in that the restaurant that inspired the song was also used for exterior shots of Monk's. The real name is Tom's Restaurant, so halfway between the two.

Everybody's got the right to be happy

Definitely this. If you juxtapose it with Sweetness Follows (which is similarly depressing, but a lot more subdued and haunting), it works way better.

Most definitely. I remember diving into the bottom end of Up (not one of their best loved or most well known albums at the best of times) and discovering tracks (Falls to climb, Why not smile) that were better than anything up front on, say, a U2 album. I love how obtuse they were in that respect.

Everything about that movie was great-the plot, the script, the gorgeous scenery, the women, ski scenes, dude going through a snowmaker… Imagine how good it would've been with a better actor.

"He is… The most Australian man in the world"

Pierce Brosnan's three 90-minute infomercials did much more to fuck up the series than Austin Powers ever did

Ah… Because you use the metric system

I mostly love the series, but I don't get why they have to churn one (or, in this case, two) out every year. This way, we just get the same tired old 'stalk this dude who will turn around randomly every five seconds'-missions and clunky controls every time. If Ubisoft took a year longer on every installment and just

I love a good well argued response to my points, it really shows me that the other party actually has a counterargument that I can respond to.
