The mafia kill her elderly ass (donkey) and she tracks the killers down!

TBH, that does sound like a movie she’d sign up for.

Close.  It’s a movie about Aubrey Plaza having ass replacment surgery, but her newly free old ass then tracking her down for revenge.  

I am picturing this as a John Wick style action revenge movie and I am down for it.  

Who doesn’t love Aubrey Plaza, and I really liked The Fallout. But I don’t know how much of that was due to the brilliance of Jenna Ortega. She’s brilliant, right? We can say that? Either way, I’ll be seeing this. 

I don’t see a whole lot of SAG going on there.

Wait, so this isn’t a movie where Aubrey Plaza’s character has ass replacement surgery but then regrets it and goes on a quest to recover and restore her former ass?

I’m really looking forward to again seeing the entire AV Club staff of the time hitting the “Hail Satans” on Nathaniel Rateliff’s take of “The Best Ever Death Metal Band Out of Denton.” (I don’t think I imagined that, right?)

When comment sections were being shut down at Root and Jezebel and AVC was circling towards shallow clickbait nonsense, I assumed that was going to be pretty much it and I’d have to find something else to do with my online pop culture time.  This is my favorite website and I feel like it’s gotten a pardon from…

“And if anyone knows where the old neon A.V. Undercover sign is, we’d love to use it.” I do.

Holy shit, I honestly thought the old Undercover videos were going to be lost forever. And a new season to boot? Things are looking up around here.

RUN THE SERIES

I hope The A.V. Club also brings back Page to Screen and One-Season Wonders.

Charli XCX is great. She opened for Sleigh Bells about 12 years ago and patted my head after the show because she saw me getting kicked in the noggin by a crowdsurfer.

But the meat of these songs is her own insecurity

There haven’t been that many great male companions on Doctor Who, though Jamie, Harry Sullivan, Rory, and Graham were all terrific. William Russell as Ian was the first and possibly the best though. RIP

Ted Mosby was the true worst love interest on HIMYM. Pretentious d-bag in most ways, making Barney Stinson look like a stable, romantic lover in comparison.

Also Paolo, literally singled out by a romance novelist as “a complication who you kill off before the third act.” The TV Tropes page “Romantic False Lead” was even named after him until they made everything a more generic name.

I’d throw Emily from Friends on this list.  I know she was meant to be an obstacle for the Ross/Rachel relationship but she was just SO unappealing in every way.
