Avatar: “But YOU won Best Picture!”

someone should make a movie about that

I’m not usually this guy, but...

It's going to be difficult for him to enter a plea because every time he starts talking he falls backwards into a display rack full of thimbles.

I think they’re trying to say that animated films are cartoons for babies so the idea of an intelligent animated movie confuses them.

Holy shit - The Last Days of Disco is almost 30 years old. We are farther away from that film than the film was from the disco era.

Sally was definitely the one to kill him. But, given the circumstances, I go back and forth about if it was murder. He nearly choked her to death, which arguably makes her subsequent actions self-defense. She had every reason to believe that he would try to kill her again, pen in the eye or no.

That was my wife’s initial reaction as well. The reviewer seems to consider Sally “redeemed” because she came clean to her son, which... sure, but she still got away with murder and let an innocent man go to jail.

As I recall she beat him to a frothy pulp with a baseball bat and then Barry came in and stopped her.

Great finale. I wonder if Sally tried to clear Gene’s name?

He said he was unhappy at the beginning and by the time the film was released, he was full on board with it. Like, he said this a lot.

it’s abolutely né for the masculine in french but if this is an english expression then it wouldn’t be the first time a french word got butchered on its way to become an english idiom.

True, but it’s loan word in English so there isn’t a gender distinction. The French have more or less adopted the practice in daily usage.

Née means someone’s original name. It’s a loan word from French and sometimes retains the accent. It’s not gender specific English, it just indicates a name change. We just see it most often with women because they change their names far more often than men.

Cousineau falling for a sting using one of his former students whom he doesn’t remember was a nice touch.

This.  Seeing just 5 minutes of her home life explained so much about Sally.

I think her mom goes past that though when she calls Sally to say she shouldn’t have told the abuse story because now she has to see them Sally’s abuser and his family at church and it’s weird. She pretty much diminishes some pretty horrific sounding abuse and seems to deny it even happened. She also kinda blames…

With self-healing headlights!

The crappy remake of Gone in 60 Seconds was at least good for reminding people about a kickass car movie that was verging on being completely forgotten.

What about the chase scene from Mitchell? With the “hot merging action”?
