That wasn’t angel dust, it was rat poison.  Helen Hunt was just trying to kill Paxton 

Maybe I’m not savvy enough to understand marketing, but sending envelopes with creepy kids drawings doesn’t actually advertise anything, right?

This is both hilarious as a marketing campaign gone wrong, and a tragic and frightening state of affairs for where we are now in this country. That people expect political violence by the MAGA crazies. And why wouldn’t they, since the amazingly large mob’s fascist leader is very competitive at the moment for winning…

*shakes fist* Paxtooooon!

That reminds me of the time I was working as a crew member on another Bill Paxton movie, Twister. Everyone ended up tripping balls because the lobster chowder was spiked with angel dus- HEY WAIT A MINUTE!

You know there’s always the option to shut the fuck up and not sound like an absolute tool, right?

And it’s genuinely one of the best docs on filmmaking I've ever seen. And, I'm no fan boy about Apocalypse Now.

It’s also so much of a nothing story — “MJF says people who get famous on social media for seemingly no reason wouldn’t have been famous in the 80s because there was no social media”... Well, he not wrong.

Can this one PLEASE not be a mystery box companion? I audibly GROANED when I realized Ruby was going to be ANOTHER Amy/Clara/Bill.

ENOUGH. STOP IT. The adventure is supposed to be the draw, not the mystery.

This is getting heavy.

Why are you trying to get the internet to go after Michael J Fox? Does that seem like the right target to you? 

This is the owner’s fault. All she needed to do was have the monkey-tested neural chip implanted in her brain, then bio-install Twitter/X into her DNA, then pay for a blue tick, and her Tesla would have given her priority uploading.

I can’t wait for the Elmo Cult to come tell me how this deathtrap glitch is actually a brilliant feature of the definitely-very-well-designed religious relics they spent so much money on.

Tik-Tok-er...Woman got locked was trapped chose to stay in her Tesla and now has monetized her plight to over 100k views. FTFY

Like a lot of cultural touchstone references, you don’t have to have read Proust to know the basic fundamental reference. It’s done in Ratatouille when the food critic has one bite of his dish and is transported back to childhood and his mother’s cooking. So, Pixar respects its audience more than Warner respects…

Good memories of that three-month period in late 2006 and early 2007 when we were all saying this was better than Lost

I have a female friend who, when it became clear that some guy really wanted her to know that he went to an Ivy, would ask which school he was talking about and then pretend she’d never heard of it. Maybe one in twenty would take it in stride, three or four would catch on that she was fucking with them, and 75-80%…

The reason smart, socially aware people don’t talk a lot about how smart and special they are is because they know it’s more a warning sign for some pretty garbage personality traits, like arrogance and insecurity, than something that will convince most people it’s true.

If only we had some national political figure…

Love how all of the AVC Commentary Club (who is as terminally online as you can get) has no idea who any of these people are.
