Damn you for reminding me of that movie. Haneke at his bleakest, and that's saying something.

Still, nonetheless…

That being said, I still enjoy 'Everlong' from their second album, which was disappointing in its entirety.

I saw them at Pukkelpop '95, and I remember being way more impressed by White Zombie's act, who played before them; then again, Neil Young and Pearl Jam closed off the night, and after a bunch of ten-minute solos I fell asleep against a tree somewhere, so my aunt was totally panicking, thinking I got abducted by a…

I'd say the dad from Visitor Q should be on this list. I'm talking incest, several murders, necrophilia, videotaping his son getting beaten up and urinated on by a bunch of bullies… The list goes on.

We both must have been in our early twenties, and to me that's a bit late to consider anything by Coelho your favorite book. Granted, I guess it could offer something meaningful to soul searching teenagers with a less than healthy penchant for esoteric nonsense, but you'll have to ask them.

That book is just awful drivel. When this sweet, absolutely stunning girl told me it was her favorite novel, it was the first time I realized how high my standard is concerning relationships and things like literature, music, art, etc..

Nope.

This has been bothering me for a pretty long time now: what exactly IS the deal with AV Club blatantly ignoring American Dad? Could someone give me a reasonable explanation?

Well, time to change my avatar. Again.

That's pretty much it, and lots of beer and chocolates. But I guess those are just some of the 'pleasures'.

I saw and thoroughly enjoyed House of Pleasures, but, then again, I live in Belgium. So, y'know, there's that.

I've been a regular AVClub visitor (and sometimes commentor) for a while now, and I also have to ask: Is Jane the Virgin really that good, and, if so, what's so good about it? This site's pretty much the only place I've seen it mentioned on a regular basis; maybe that's got something to do with my living in Europe or…

That Obscure Object of 'MY' Desire?! Oh, do come on, WOT. If you truly have to apply a (frankly, far-fetched) Buñuel reference, at least get the title right, you dim-witted dilettante!

I'm reading 'Vineland', my fifth Pynchon novel, and thus far it's pretty much as good (and easily readable) as 'Inherent Vice'. It's my 'on the road' book at the moment; at home I'm reading 'Life', Keith Richards' autobiography, which is becoming more and more fascinating as I'm nearing the seventies, when shit got…

Were you also born with six fingers on each hand? Just wondering if it's something local.

I quite enjoyed 'Buried' as a movie - but then again, Reynolds was the ONLY thing in it.

I still don't get how anyone could think a gangster drama set in the thirties was going to benefit from digital cameras. Man, I had such high hopes, and they were brutally trampled.
