Timothy Olyphant was in "I Am Number Four." Even that wasn't enough to get me to see it.

I think the one thing I'll say about Colin Farrell's character's plotline is that it's not a typical "divorced father wanting to get closer to his kid" story. For starters, he most likely isn't his biological son based on a couple factors: the timeline of his ex-wife's pregnancy, their extreme physical differences…

I hadn't heard of that poem before, which meant that I had to look it up. How dare you for making me do that this late, you should be ashamed! At any rate, it looks to be an analysis of the true meaning of beauty. And "fire" and "burning" are mentioned a couple times, so it looks like you actually did the poem justice…

That sounds incredible. Also, arson will usually get you a good grade on an English project.

Like I said, even though I disagreed with his main assessment of the series (at least so far), he made some very cogent points and it was actually very enlightening. It was pretty harsh, though. Just as an aside, I think the harshest review of anything that I've ever read was David Edelstein's review of that cinematic…

That was an interesting (and funny) review. Though I disagree with its main point about this season being utterly awful, I thought it made a few other good ones. Specifically how Pizzolatto is "over-douring" the dialogue this season, and how there's no "straight man"—for lack of a better word—that can play against the…

Or Wallace from the great Justified episode "Blowback."

Hahaha, I love that you called him that.

"Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop snorting coke. Or commit physical assault."

I also laughed at that. It was so over-the-top that it actually worked in an unexpectedly funny way.

"Forget it, Frank. It's Vinci."

I had to make an "Antigone" musical for a project back in high school English class. I remember we used a horn section. It was also the same class where a few of us made a Stars Wars-themed play out of Ivanhoe. Those were strange times.

I personally love the combination of Robbins and Monroe, they play off each other so well. I think they've assembled a pretty good cast, for the most part. The show was pretty entertaining to me, but to each their own.

Until a couple weeks ago, I was not expecting "True Detective" to do worse than expected and "The Brink" to do better. Well, that's how the cookie crumbles, I guess. And yes, the dialogue in this show is hilarious.

Maribeth Monroe, please marry me. You can yell at me or make me shred classified documents as much as you want.

In that case, Vince Vaughn's character is very, very weak.

I liked the random presence of the joint too, which he smoked before heading to Aspen's house for good old-fashioned assault. Hey, might as well go all out, right?

Those should have been the lyrics to the intro song instead of the whatever-the-hell they had.

Also, speaking of Velcoro's alcoholism, one of the funniest moments of the episode (which, as we know, were few and far between) was when him and Semyon were drinking with each other. Velcoro is downing glass after glass, and Semyon tells him "you're supposed to savor it." Velcoro says that he'll "have to try again"…
