while the producer told the NYT that he “can’t and won’t present a play that feels like it was written in the year the book was written in terms of its racial politics: It wouldn’t be of interest. The world has changed since then.”

You mean your comments?

CONFIRMED: Both The Last Jedi and The Revenant take place in the Tom-Hardy-Pulls-An-American-Accent-Out-Of-His-Ass Cinematic Universe. And speculation is mounting about his next project, a gritty Yosemite Sam reboot.

but that’s four more than the actual Queen has.

Of course she’s wooden, she’s portraying Queen Elizabeth II who is famous for being wooden and awkward.

I like Matt Smith, but he looks like an unfrozen caveman.

Rest in Paradise, Craig Mack!

The remix is one of the best rap songs of all time.

I’ll just use this area to say again that, while I was rooting for Phantom Thread to upset and win more than this one Oscar, I am very happy that Mark Bridges got the accolade. He deserves it for his work in the film and has been a fantastic costume designer for a long time. His work in Magnolia, obviously a less…

I think Hamill’s made it pretty clear that he disagrees with your assessment of Johnson’s vision for the film.

I swear most of the complaints about TLJ are at best nitpicking (i.e. how the bombs worked) or, at worst, was explained in the movie, required basic critical thinking skills (i.e. Leia’s spacewalk and Luke’s Force Projection), or was never that important to begin with and were hyped by Abrams and his mystery boxes…

The Ariel Pink stuff in this interview reminded me of Lollapalooza 2010 when Julian commented during their set about how many great bands were playing the festival, then only mentioned Wavves.

“Are we just atoms twirling around this tectonic shift?”

His shit about Hendrix not being popular in the sixties and Bowie not being popular in the seventies... COMEDY GOLD!

Ah, my favourite secondary character in Veronica Mars.

The Strokes rule, especially the first two records. And I think I agree with most of what I can make out of this interview (big money has a vested interest in keeping people ignorant and/or misinformed about most of everything, but the political process most of all) but yeah, he sounds REALLY high.

He’s an odd dude. I agree with some of his statements about music, but he goes off the rails with some of this stuff. 

While I’ve read Ulysses, I’ve only looked at all the words of Finnegans Wake.

It’s always been my impression that not being able to explain what Ulysses is about, doesn’t necessarily mean that person didn’t read it.
