After the apocalypse there will be only cockroaches and bands of cannibals, and they will all have that fucking "Swan Song" poster on their walls.

Glancing at Amazon, it looks like there are DVDs for the theatrical version and the longer version available.

There are things I liked as a preteen where I can remember a really specific part, and I actually feel like those are the ones that have aged worst - like the part of the book/show/movie that I remembered was the only memorable part. Then there are things that I remember enjoying, but I couldn't describe too many

Wait a minute, how many months would it take to have a million periods?

He was normalized by the Republican Party when they made him their nominee for president of the United States. For all his TV appearances and vocal supporters, they were under no obligation to nominate an hateful, inexperienced madman.

I would say that 100% of the blame goes to the Republican Party. The fraction of blame belonging to the media is a rounding error.

Who the fuck do you think she is, the chick from Game of Thrones?

Well, reading is generally faster than talking, and longer sentences are more comprehensible in writing, which allows for much more detail and nuance in describing a concept. Videos are useful for illustrating concepts, but they tend to be more superficial and less satisfying than a well-written article.

Intent is different from motivation. None of the horrible shit she says and does is contrary to her intent. What motivates her to do and say that shit is irrelevant.

I guess to put it the other way I can't think of any flaws with digital projection that the 70mm screening fixed. The movie looked great, but I remember Django Unchained looking great when I saw it projected digitally at the multiplex. There were probably any number of things that looked better in 70mm than they

I thought Buffy the Vampire Slayer was a joke when I heard the first promo, which taught me to be open-minded about TV adaptations that seem completely baffling and terrible.

That doesn't sound like a lengthy scene, that sounds like the whole movie. Save the action for the cliffhanger ending and sequel.

While Carpenter has a few fucks left to give, he saves most of them for playing video games and the synthesizer. I can't imagine him saying "Yeah, you can remake Halloween again, but only if you acknowledge Halloween II as canon."

Get Out broke several box office records and was a massive word-of-mouth success, so I'll be surprised if he doesn't make another thriller. I'm actually more concerned that directing horror movies is going to derail his career as a screen comedian, because the man is a goddamn force of nature in front of the camera.

I consider the best place to appreciate music a moving vehicle, either through headphones or on the vehicle's speakers (unless it's a Saturn).

I have to admit that one of the things that made seeing the Hateful 8 such a weird experience is that I could barely detect any visual difference between the 70mm projection and the movies I'd seen that month on a digital projector. Could it be that digital technology actually works pretty well?

I just saw Romy and Michele's High School reunion a few weeks ago. I don't know what I expected, but I couldn't believe what a joy it is to watch (the first hour at least, it starts running out of steam near the end).

When I read that headline my first thought was "who gives a shit about John McAfee?" But after reading the article it's more like "how have I never heard about this guy?"
