Coldplay is ear poison.

I caught this on Sundance hoping for a little "art" with the tits and ass, and it was offensive, just obnoxiously awful, I wasn't so offended I turned it off, the nudity is, uh, tastyful, but as this is the director's artistic statement in defense of his alleged sexual harassment of his actors, I assume they all…

That really bothered me.

Right on.

That "Mitzvah Tank" got me. Why? Just for weirdness sake because it looked good in the long shot of Gus' apartment building, which not having been to Duluth, seemed like a large urban dwelling, or does Duluth actually have Jewish faith based RV's cruising the streets performing charitable acts.

I would have said Bubble Yum or maybe Bubblicious, but Hubba Bubba is funnier.

"He was just in the parking lot, eating a sno-cone, and a piece of hail the size of a softball just smashed his skull in."
Pause.
"What flavor?"

Lamprey is a common regional dish in Bordeaux when the adults move upstream from the Gironde estuary into freshwater in the spring. I spent two weeks there in April and tried it a couple times; gritty, mettalic, and fucking bizarre, no amount of wine reduced sauce and leeks and spice could disguise the fact that your…

It's force majeure.

Kafka!

I think Joan might have done that to fuck with Lou. Meredith, while sweet, is pretty dim, although that may be precisely his expectation for a secretary, so

Also, it's part of the job and the lifestyle, he would probably prefer not to be like Freddie with the scarlet double AA on his chest driving clients and colleagues away from business as usual.

What's up with her eyebrows? Has she always has had black bushy eyebrows? I'm confused.

For a director who is accused of misogyny he sure has created several indelible roles for actresses, Watson here, Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia, my favorite of LVT's, Bjork in Dancer, Kidman in Dogville, Gainsbourg in Antichrist. I rank all of those films highly, and have and will rewatch all but Dogville, which I…

But how awesome is it that he can take time out from his homicidal mayhem to just fuck with people for his own amusement; the motel kid pissing in his mother's gas tank, telling one idiot brother the other idiot brother inherited his dad's estate, "uh, the money." Really digging the show so far.

A fifth of Evan Williams and two packs of yellow spirits a day keep the undertaker away, and besides the owls are watching me. But seriously, I read Solzhenitsyn's 3 volume The Gulag Archipelago the previous month, THAT was fucking depressing and difficult. Mad Men was a pleasure.

I am actually waiting until Martin finishes the books and Hbo wraps the show before I'll bother with either one.

How was that the point? A man that can throw down a quart of Bourbon a day does not suddenly lose all connection to reality for 48hrs after a syringe in the ass of, I assume B complex, cocaine and benzedrine?, you'd be flying, but even throwing some LSD in the cocktail, you wouldn't become that unmoored, useless and…

I don't remember the episode, but it was when he was at home and leveraging his father in law for more business, with Clearisil and Trudy's pregnancy,and the FIL sits down defeated and mutters "asshole", while Pete facing the bar turns back with this smug little no shit smile and head nod.. Just great work from…

Before I say anything else I have to note that I had never watched this show the past eight years, (work, no DVR the first couple seasons, assumed that without the homicide/imprisonment stakes of Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Wire, I would find it to soapy,) but due to an unfortunate bout of unemployment and netflix…
