you can see 'em in the early nineties film the waterdance, with eric stoltz.  it's actually a pretty good movie, and both she and eric stolz are really good in it.  it was back before she turned aweful on that paul reiser show, and she was pretty cute, too.

bzzzzzzz-zzzzzz!

just think, about one year ago me and my friends (and many of you, i'm sure) thought of netflix with a fondness reserved for beloved relatives, and was a service we could not imagine living without.  we all loved doting over our queues and rating movies we'd seen long ago to make our recommendations more accurate. …

the commentary for sideways, with paul giamatti and thomas hayden church discussing virginia madsen's knockers, among many other things, is nearly as good as the movie itself and utterly hilarious.

that was really a brilliant little twist— of course we were all going to think it's a u.f.o., then we were going to think "oh, a helicopter then", then for it to turn out to be a jet on it's way to crashing (bringing to mind LOST)— just brilliant.

just the opening of the semi-truck driver coming to a stop on a lonely back road was totally x-files.

american pie probably wouldn't bother me so, but for it's length.

yes, that interview is great.

i'll second that wholeheartedly, but airline to heaven is pretty damn great, too.

but then you have their ceo out there basically saying that they hate the dvd side of the business and will drop it as soon as they can.  plus, there was that 100% price hike for dvd customers a few months back that's still stinging.

i actually thought she did a pretty good job of conveying a child suffering the trauma of having these horrific visions coming true.

i've fallen behind this season— i'm keeping up on itunes but have only seen up to the steven root episode.  does walter still own massive dynamic in this new timeline?  i don't recall them actually mentioning it.

oh, i wasn't trying to discount anyone's nostalgic fondess for the movie (after watching this kong because of this piece, i pulled out my land of the lost dvds, which is, apart from a few cool sci-fi/fantasy concepts, a terrible terrible show— but one that i can watch over and over).  i was just pointing out that no…

i just watched this this morning because of this piece.  i hadn't seen it since it first showed on tv back in the late seventies, when a new movie making it's television premier was a big event.  i remember liking it, thinking jessica lange was the prettiest girl i'd ever seen, and being really impressed with the twin…

nice story.

Yeah, but the 1933 King Kong is cinema history.

didn't even get to quest for peace— superman 3 was enough to kill those movies for me.  i thought of this reading the recent the a.v. club q & a on biggest disappointment.  the first superman was pretty good, and i loved superman 2 (i was in junior high at the time).  but when my mom, my sister and i went to 3, i sat…

as a huge fan of the original king kong, i, too, love jackson's version, but i do share the usual complaints about it.  it's waaay too long (it takes forever to get to that damn island), there's too much going on in some of the action scenes, and jack black and adrian brody are miscast (though adrian brody is miscast…

man, did my friends and i love kentucky fried movie in high school.  not
only is it hilarious and filled to the brim with quotable lines, but it
had huge breasts!

@avclub-b85d65c39e12a5515c19fd72b6f48199:disqus, i was in in love with jessica lange in tootsie for for a pretty good part of the eighties.
