I liked parts of it, but also rolled my eyes multiple times, particularly at Dan grousing about “illegals.” It’s true a working-class white person on public assistance would use that language, but it still is just jarring since I never got much of that vibe from original recipe Dan Conner. Or maybe it was there all…

Oh, I fully agree that he was “over” Kathy as a friend before the Incident—still enjoy a bitchy feud!

Not a big fan of Kathy, but she gave a pretty good Howard Stern interview a few weeks back and in that, at least, she did say that she does still feel sincerely apologetic towards the people who have been impacted by actual beheadings. She just thinks that 99% of the people who were outraged are not those people, and…

I chortled at the Bowflex reference as well! I found it highly amusing that even with Pratt’s much-ballyhooed cut-up Star Lord physique, Hemsworth > Pratt any day of the week in terms of “most buff and amazingly hot.” For me, anyway.

I agree with this! I don’t hate Amy at all, and I have liked her a lot in other things (except Snatched, which truly was bad, poor Goldie). But I don’t think she’s beautiful in the Hollywood way either. She’s average-looking absolutely. Frankly, the jokes I’ve seen in the trailer where she’s in her trance and is…

This is pretty much the reason I’ve seen “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” twice. Twice! I’m so ashamed.

I am 10000% the target demo for this movie: a white woman in my late 30's who is upper-middle class, wears a size 12, shops at (and loves!) Target (so, so, so much...it’s a problem), has paid money to go see Amy Schumer perform comedy...but I just know this movie is terrible, and won’t bother to see it until it lands…

I actually really loved Friends With Benefits too! It’s the only time I’ve been able to tolerate Justin Timberlake.

I’m pretty sure this scene was the first time I ever got horny.

Dang, you just made me realize that Ben Gellar is 23 years old. O_O

I think a West Wing reboot could work in a heartbeat with that idea - especially if Sam Seaborn were running for president against the Republican and it’s him recruiting his old pals from the Bartlet and Santos administrations to make it happen. Remember, Bartlet did tell Sam “you’re going to run for president some…

Did you ever ask them why they didn’t just use birth control? I just can’t wrap my brain around setting yourself up for such a struggle, especially when in this article it seems like a well-known fact that the men won’t do shit to help.

Sex-ed would change it. Improved general education would change it. Some hope of mobility is the only answer — I don’t believe they’re all just idiots (though some are). I think one of the reasons they have so many babies is because having the babies gives them some sort of warped purpose. The solution must be to…

Heh. That’s from Runaway Bride, Joan Cusack had a hair salon with that name. It is pretty funny.

I think it’s a combination of things: religion, anti-science views, anti-intellectualism that’s become sort of a dogma to certain parts of American society, fear of “liberal ‘elites’” trying to tell them how to live their lives, no sex-education...Horrible education that’s a result of the public school system that…

THIS. Even if they’re going to stubbornly continue to vote for fucking Republicans who don’t give two fucks about their poverty, even if they’re going to continue to be anti-abortion....why oh why oh why don’t they just use birth control? I truly do not understand.

Well, Chase also explicitly points out that the clues to the end are in the conversation Sylvio has after witnessing the shooting at the restaurant, that he didn’t even hear the shot or know what had happened until it was over. I think the extremely meticulous direction of that final scene is more than an easter egg,…

“Planned Parenthood ‘got too political’”???? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!? No. They were dragged into the political arena by goddamn motherfucking wingnuts who cannot and will not ever accept that abortion is a private, LEGAL (for 40+ fucking years now), health care procedure that is the business only of the people…

I would honestly be interested in some sort of follow-up movie about the aftermath. Carmela was a hugely interesting character to me, and finding out what she and the family did in the aftermath of the whacking and who took up the reins in the Family (remember Tony’s crew was basically decimated except for Paulie of…

Yep, there was also that epically long blog post that explained it in detail and it made so much sense I don’t even understand how anyone could deny it. It was brilliantly written and directed by Chase. I didn’t like that I needed to read the explanation in order to ‘get it’, but he wasn’t wrong when he said in…
