I saw a screening at the Sydney Film Festival in IMAX on Saturday; the film is bananas, but I had a blast watching it and would love to see it again.

I was at a screening at the Sydney Film Festival on Saturday and they had some in-person do it.

No idea how you roll that out on scale.

And add “spoilers in the headline” too!

Please, please, please stop the ragebait headlines and articles. I miss this place making me feel optimistic about film, TV and music, rather than the constant misery that the Newswire serves up.

Yeah, “spoiler-alerts-be-damned” best defining the attitudes of AV Club, and how this website has gone to absolute shit.

Great list, made only slightly sad by the low ranking of Lord of the Rings, which I feel should be at least ten places higher than it is. 

‘It’s Always Sunny’ has been a staple of my life since 2007-ish when I got S1&2 on DVD (because Danny DeVito was on the cover and in a new TV show!). I’ve loved it ever since and it is one of my all time comedies.
