Proofread your copy for God’s sake. 

Erik, you’re an old timer and we know how you roll. But your post was surface level pedantry. I long for the days of quality comments from you but you are truly the bottom of the barrel here.

* Keeley and Jack: I hate this whole relationship. Further, I hate how Keeley’s sexuality has been used over each season as a narrative engine rather than part of who she is. Keeley has been three different people over three different seasons, and while some might say that it’s someone going through personal change, I…

With the whiff of a filler set piece, this subplot had all of Richmond’s players remembering that the best way to spend a curfew-free night in Amsterdam is to not go see tulips, not eat Dutch food, not attend a private party, and definitely not bear witness to a sex show and instead to have a pillow fight(?).

Ding Ding Ding!

Cloth rustle, for example, is tricky to edit and leads to more ADR

I liked it. A good ending I felt. And the Harfoots were actually fun to watch in this one (less doom and gloom and boredom when on them please)!

Respectfully, I disagree. The Wachowskis’ work has always been bugnuts and deeply personal, and one time it was hugely commercial basically by accident. The early aughts is littered with attempts to make a Matrix without them, and those movies–Equilibrium, Aeon Flux, UltraViolet, the Underworld series–have all aged…

I lost it when he yelled “plancha!”

New Lord Huron album dropped today:

All I can think looking at that list of TV shows is “not one of them is worth ‘More Adventurous.’”

please dowd don’t hurt em

“At one point, they shoot a rectal exam from the rectum’s perspective. It may be the defining image of a film so far up its own ass.”

Juno is also really good (and much more observant and adroitly written and well-structured than a lot of its detractors give it credit for) and people were wrong to backlash that one, too.

It’s really unclear. Polls used to show Bernie would have done really well against Trump. Many people might be confused by this, but it’s probably because Bernie focuses on connecting with the youth and working class white voters in ways that most other Democrats just don’t (or can’t garner enough enthusiasm for,…

I recently learned Belinda Carlisle was the original drummer for the Germs.

I get the feeling that combination was all kinds of melodramatic as a teen lol

Oberst once sang as if his heart were in the process of breaking in two; now, older and more mature, he’s able to reflect on the nature of his pain, to wrap it in humanity’s collective suffering. This clarity gives way to optimism, couched as it is in anguish.
