There was something with critics in the 80s where the really fought against comedies and genre films.  I think it was push back from the invention of the blockbuster and big budget comedies that came into being in the 70s.  They didn’t hate all of them but there are a lot of classic examples of great films that were…

Maybe your 19 year old just has bad taste

I think Kahn is really wonderful in Judy Berlin. It isn't a widely seen movie. I don't even know how to see it now. I remember renting it from Hollywood Video oh-so-long-ago. But 20 years later, I remember her performance more than anything else in that movie. 

I really want this to be true with all my heart but I have a sinking feeling anytime I get too hopeful because they are such awful awful cheaters.

That line from the quoted Post article that began “Trump has always exhibited a healthy ego...” really smashed my brain into the brick wall of corporate-both-sides-press-speak. Barack Obama has a healthy ego. Elizabeth Warren has a healthy ego. Donald Trump’s ego is so bloated and all-consuming that I’m not entirely…

He could have taken this seriously and united and led the country, instead he decided to refuse to listen to experts, lie, deny, minimize, blame others, and promote conspiracy theories, because that’s all he knows how to do. Unfortunately, none of these actions are useful for, you know, actually leading a country…

I have a simple rule.  If Madeline Kahn is involved then it'll be a good time.  This is no exception, although Martin Moll is pretty damn fantastic as well.  Really everyone is having a ball, if they are having fun then so shall I.

“I’ve done everything a stupidly as possible, just like I always do. Why isn’t it working this time?”

You better be happy we don’t want to use the slugs.

Seriously though, treat yourself to a Friday delight by reading the Posts article. You know when you see Ashley Parker in the byline that 25 people came out to anonymously talk shit.

This is hardly a foregone conclusion for multiple reasons.

I love this movie so much. I watched it again a couple of months ago, for the first time in probably five or ten years. There’s a few moments that come off kind of awkwardly or haven’t aged well (Professor Plum’s behavior verges on sexual assault) but there’s just so many great moments and line deliveries and cadences.

Clue is one of my favourite comedies, ever. Saw it as a kid on tv.

Him going 1-1 today with the financial information likely protected until after the election, is still a win for him. It’s just the case he lost, the argument was SO BAD that the conservatives couldn’t pretzel wrap this one. Giving him the New York DA case would require the Constitution to be folded into a paper plane.

The entire friggin street in front of Trump Tower, LOL!!!

Trump’s argument was literally that a sitting president is above the law. Most of the conservative supreme court justices realized that there won’t always be a Republican president and said “LOL, no.”

and demanded that Kellyanne Conway be brought into his office so that he could stare death in the face
