I'm really not quite sure of what the point of this list was, it's almost like one of those Cracked articles that's like "5 Myths About [x] that You Think Are True'. I'm pretty sure 90% of people reading the AV Cub are pop culture savvy enough to be aware that he was no saint and was, in fact, a petty, bitter,…

Kendrick is awesome too.

Isn't Give Ireland Back to the Irish a Macca song? Definitely agree with you otherwise though.

Across the Universe is awful. Even Bowie in his prime couldn't make that piece of shit sound good.

I love Bob Balaban and loved him in that role but picturing what Pallana would have made out of that dialogue actually has me giggling.

If Marisa Tomei has taught us anything, it's that it's worth the wait.

Well off-topic, but I used to live with a guy who claimed that he had a completely neutral accent. He was from Winnipeg, which as we know is the birthplace of the English language.

Hamartia.

Maybe he and Patrick just didn't like each other in that way?

My mum worked for Family Planning when I was young so I grew up with a pretty healthy attitude about sex. I was living abroad for a few years in a place where condoms were inconvenient to purchase so she'd send them over to me. The day after my engagement broke up, a package arrived with a dozen twelve packs of Durex.…

She has to live on the North Shore so she's clearly not that great at life.

Based on my other main knowledge about Northland, I'm assuming there must be a lot of impoverished, Mormon Croatians with the last name Going up there?

I don't like The Doors at all but I'll concede their music has stood the test of time for some people. You can't unilaterally declare that Cyrus's work won't have lasting relevance for others the week after the album has come out.

@avclub-022199896b1f52952c180b60caa681bd:disqus check out the rantings of disgraced former hard right political party leader and one-time government minister (not long ago!) Rodney Hide in the New Zealand Herald for more of that kind of crap from Kiwis… our government went strongly neo-liberal in the mid-80s but…

Because heaven forbid we merely discuss the artistic merits of a young female singer's work without pausing to objectify her.

@avclub-89e37a259b4aa81f041d8b6d46d6238c:disqus I used to work at a government call centre with very strict identity confirmation policies, that exchange was recounted between my colleagues and I if not daily then definitely at least 5 times a week.

Really not a fan, though that could have a lot to do with how much Anthem for the Year 2000 and Ana's Song were played on the radio when I was in my early teens.

Replace 'American' with 'New Zealand' and replace 'one-hit wonder' with 'enduringly popular into the early 00s but then thankfully forgotten' and you've got it nailed.

Seriously, I am going to the imax for this ASAP. The trailers alone for this made me extremely anxious so the movie might make me have a panic attack!

Ugh, Britta's in this?
