While absolutely delicious, pizza isn't aesthetically pleasing visually.

I've been slowly making my way back through this series, and going from Rocky II to Rocky III could give you whiplash. They say that it takes a while for a decade to establish itself, but apparently the eighties arrived fully formed and consumed the entire culture.

"Alvin And The Chipmunks: The Road Chip (get it?)"

The only bands on this list I can unequivocally get behind are Cheap Trick and NWA. I've always found the argument against rap groups in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame kind of stupid at this point. Sure, at the beginning you can argue genre categories all you want, but once pop musicians like Madonna and Michael…

For me, Inglorious Basterds is Tarantino's least successful film. I think you point out plenty of reasons why. Usually his movies can handle these tonal shifts, but here they seem odd. There are individual scene that I think are superb, but the film as a whole doesn't really hang together for me.

This sounds like it's the best case scenario. I never expected this film to be innovative or new. The best Abrams can accomplish is quality fan service (and at his worst, he deliver misguided fan service). So I'm glad to hear that the film is good, but my expectations will be tweaked so as not to expect something mind…

They're just a scruffy little underdog of a company trying to make their way in the world, and they need all the help they can get.

I'm going to be cautiously optimistic. For me, the trailer kind of misses the mark, but it's just a teaser. Besides, I think they assembled a great cast for these films, and I really hope they finally hit the mark.

For as much as Spielberg and Hanks are considered square's, there’s something paradoxically subversive about Bridge of Spies and its story of a man who follows his principles even when everyone else wants him to bend. Hell, even superhero films and TV shows are unreflectively showing the good guys torture and even…

Damn. Did Chris Hemsworth shove the author in a locker back in high school or something.

A nation of anxious nerds can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

I really like that the secret reveal at the end is James McAvoy completely bald. It's like the makers knew that ever since First Class, the audience has been waiting for McAvoy to go full cue ball.

That whole article is actually pretty damn funny. I haven't read anything on StarWipe, and it made me think that maybe I'll check out the rest of the site. But I probably won't.

Harrison Ford has never really cared about playing to the press. But at least in the last year or so, it seems like he really enjoys giving no fucks at all whereas in earlier years he just seemed so burdened by…something.

I'm obviously not claiming that John Carter is a documentary. But I do think Americans can be reluctant to revisit a time in our past. Sure, a few important films have done well in recent years, but if you look at your list, the most recent film is fifteen years old. Films set in the past just don't do as well today…

I'm one of the few people who liked both John Carter and The Lone Ranger, but it's pretty clear that the public has an aversion to anything that takes place in the past. I'm not quite sure why this is. Perhaps it doesn't have the veneer of something that's "new" (even though most blockbusters aren't all that original…

I've never read the books, but don't the apes talk in the original version?

It could even be Mike Tyson's Punchout since the public has apparently forgiven him for raping that woman.

I disagree. Hulk was tonally all over the place, but there are really wonderful moments of beauty and camp mixed together. It also pushed hard on the Freudian repression and Oedipal angle in a way that we would never see in a superhero film today. Raimi's Spiderman trilogy is probably the closest we will ever get to…

I'm glad you made note of that hilariously over the top moment when Jessica stands at the top of the Manhattan bridge. Other than the 80s guitar solo, I like a good deal of their musical cues. There's a jazz influenced score that pops up every now and again, and it really fits the noir aspect of the show. I was also…
