This actually sounds like a great idea. And it gives me the excuse I need to later kill Nick Nolte’s dog.

I wasn’t a big fan of this one when I first saw it. I felt like it relied too heavily on montages. As Mr. Breihan notes, the scenes seem disconnected from one another. I’ve since rewatched it and really enjoyed it, but mainly because of the goodwill I have for the Character and Chris Evans portrayal of him.
You ranked Infinity War too low.
Captain America really is great at evoking that simpler, more innocent time when everyone could agree that punching Nazis was a Good Thing. Man, remember 2011?
...the same year’s decidedly shittier MCU entry, Thor...
Basically, she needed to collect three Etiquette Gems to affix to her Eternity Umbrella, then she can become queen of the clouds above West London. At the end of the first movie, she’d gotten the gems, but the post-credits stinger suggested that Angela Lansbury was about to be summoned from the Cursed Realm of…
She dodged a bullet that wasn’t going to hit her in the first place, apparently?
Mary Poppins’ (ONE WEIRD) trick is that the adventure is backed by implied threat -- she can make wondrous things happen, so imagine what would happen if you actively pissed her off. League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier often goes up its own ass and has a hate boner for a certain boy wizard that is more…
For the love of entertainment, Barsanti, stop dishing out bad takes on all of a filmmaker’s recent work whenever you have to write an article about one. His Kong is, at bare minimum, a breathtaking work of craftsmanship that doesn’t deserve to be dismissed as “crummy” by... well, certainly not by you.
Heavenly Creatures was my first exposure to Jackson, and it's an excellent movie based around a rather creepy true story.
I felt absurdly proud of him for finally saying “Live from New York, it’s Saturday night” correctly, which he was obviously putting a lot of effort into.
I’m always kind of struck by the intensity of the loathing I see for Mumford and Sons around the Internet (and, yes, that includes this here website). Like, there’s this sense that what they do is inherently...I don’t know, illegitimate?
I’ve seen a lot of good shows this year. Franz Ferdinand, Phoenix, Florence + the Machine, Lorde, HAIM, the Killers (3 times!)... I actually flew to Vegas in February to see the Killers play their hometown and that was so much fun. I lived there when I was a kid, but I haven’t been back since we moved away in 2001, so…
This article is remarkable. It denies neither praise nor condemnation of the man and his politics. It doesn’t change anyone’s opinion, nor is it written to do so. It critiques images of him, and respects the man himself. It is literate, concise, and solid. Thank you.
I had the pleasure of volunteering for President Bush sr. in 2000. We worked on an initiative for childhood leukemia funding. Eight years later my husband and two sons were killed in an accident. I had not had any dealings with President Bush for almost 7 years. A few months after the accident I received a phone call.…
I should know better than to get sucked into an argument with you, of all people, but I did study this in some depth. Iraq probably wouldn’t have invaded Kuwait except that we sent some mixed signals about whether we’d look the other way that were interpreted as a ‘green light’ for invasion. We backed Saddam in the…
He helped pass the Americans with Disabilities Act, he helped end acid rain by capping SO2 and NO2 emissions, he raised taxes on the rich to close a disastrous Reagan-built deficit (at enormous political cost) and he led a coalition to repel Iraq’s attempt to swallow Kuwait, which is a very defensible thing, even now.
Not gonna disrespect the man immediately after he dies. Wouldn’t be prudent.
I meant the real life Anna Kendrick, but sure also the character.
The Scott Pilgrim video game was better than both the movie and the comic
