He did.

Stranger than Fiction is a minor masterpiece and people who bag on Ferrell can get bent.  If all he ever did was that film and Talladega Nights, his legacy would be unquestionable.

Happy?  The man is desperately trying to act out the self-aggrandizing movie in his head and seems manically headed towards a relapse.

Bill Buckley, obviously

It was a dumb premise, but I wish they could somehow bring back Larry’s anti-fatwa disguise.  I’m fucking laughing just thinking about it

Nothing against Qualley’s talent, which I’m certain is in evidence in her performance, but yes I couldn’t help rolling my eyes a bit when I saw her cast as a ‘salt-of-the-earth single mother’. It’s like, ‘come watch the inspirational story of how Ana Taylor-Joy overcame her stutter to make friends.’ Fuck right off,…

What’s not to like?  Perfect teaser ripped straight from the classic books.

‘...for once I didn’t find Captain Marvel boring.’

April Bowlby is a fucking riot as Rita Farr. Every other line is camp perfection. She’s so effortlessly, hilariously great that I don’t know if I’d recognize her even if I’d seen her in stuff before.

Agreed.  No one’s saying that Lindsey Buckingham is faultless in this nonsense, but this article assumes we all agree he’s a talentless, penniless loser with nothing better to do than make pure, innocent Stevie Nicks cry.  He’s definitely not either of the first two, and it’s at least up for debate if he’s the third.

Fuck! I mostly revile mainstream superhero art but Bennett was a perfect fit for Ewing’s Hulk.  It’s a goddamned shame, but yeah fuck him.

Unless Kai tried to implicate Paula, I’m sure the cops were plenty satisfied with finding the thief and the loot.

This is a shame because anything that casts doubt on fact-checking is a win for the psychotic, ideology-driven wing of the far-right Q-anon crowd. Of course, I’m sure the articles plagiarized are on solid factual footing.  Personally, I’ve worked as a fact-checker and it’s absolutely onerous what one goes through to…

Welcome to the wild n’ wooly world of Sam Barsanti, where quality writing goes to die a grisly death

Personally, I always thought of Weaving’s Red Skull more as ‘Skinless Werner Herzog’.

Ugh, fuck this trend.  This reminds me of the New York Times’ endorsement of Amy Klobuchar AND Elizabeth Warren for the Democratic primary (A hundred or so years ago).  Look, I’m all for ranked-choice voting.  But in a winner-take-all election, JUST FUCKING ENDORSE ONE CANDIDATE, ALREADY.  MAKING A DIFFICULT DECISION…

I got a Kang notification for this?

I did.  I really liked it.  Although I was slightly disappointed it spent more focus on Mitchell than Hampton.  Kaluuya is a FORCE.

I understand mileage may vary with one’s enjoyment of Tarantino’s movie, but since when does it verge on ‘tastelessness’ to put words and thoughts into fictional Bruce Lee’s head? Historical fiction does this all the fucking time. Bruce Lee was a historical figure, but it’s understood by anyone with an IQ outside of…

I used to live in a town where people were generally indifferent to pretty white girls but dear god they hated Sam Barsanti.  Had a Barsanti infestation in ’86 and now they cordon off the roads and search every truck bed to make sure one never gets in.  Fuck I miss that town.
