Nope.

If you were the fastest man alive, and a mass murderer had your dad in a headlock, would you:
A: stand there & watch
B: do something fast

I dunno. When I think of 5-star action/adventure films, I think RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, THE GUNS OF NAVARONE, THE TRAIN, TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE, NORTH BY NORTHWEST, THE GREAT ESCAPE… No superhero movie yet reaches those heights, I don't think. I would say SUPERMAN comes closest.

What are the chances we'll ever see a genuinely great 5-star superhero movie, period?

That's called bringing the mountain to Mohammad.

A Trump presidency means the return of phone cops.

Lydon calling Dennis Miller a "wanker" was great. Miller forgetting he was on-air and bitching to the studio audience about Lydon was even greater.

All right, sir. Okay, sir.

I hope you've never seen any Three Stooges.

David Janssen for Excedrin.

It really is just simple laziness, I'm convinced. It can't be money or time. Look at the way more television shows are blocked. Used to be, if two characters were having a conversation, particularly one with exposition, the director would give them business to do to make the scene more lively. Making breakfast or

Eh. A city is a city. Just don't drive past any obvious NYC landmarks, and they'll be fine. THE GOOD WIFE did occasionally shoot on location, so they're aware of what they need to do.

Right. Kratz had to have been lying in court at least once, if not twice. A travesty.
