Ugh, can we not? There is no backlash. There are always a few idiots with a dumb “This is offensive!” take on something not offensive, and for some reason, the media likes to scour the internet for this tiny minority, amplify their platform, and make every liberal look like an idiot crybaby. Buzzfeed does it all the…

Ditto. It’s impossible to find extra wide shoes let alone in the absurd 8x width usually reserved for clown shoes. Most days I just want to cut my feet off.

And I like New Balance, if for no other reason than they are the only brand it’s easy to find wide sizes in and my feet are shaped so weird it’s easier to just wear the shoebox.

I suppose its unavoidable, given that Allen and Weinstein had a professional relationship and the estrangement between Farrow and Allen, but it’s really unfair to bring up Allen in the context of Weinstein.

It’s obvious: Now that we know the CEO is kind of an idiot (or at least makes idiotic claims) now it’s up to everyone to say, “And I never liked their pizza anyway!”

It’s the AV Club, so we’re supposed to hate any “corporate” pizza chain and act like their food is utter garbage and then go and pay 20 bucks for a medium pizza from some mom-and-pop place.

I think after the 5th or 6th slam on Papa John’s pizza the article kind of loses the thread, as all of a sudden we are pretending that Pizza Hut isn’t the same nasty garbage just with more locations.

I have to look at Twitter for my job and Jesus Lord do I hate it. I follow people in my industry and politicians who have shown an interest in my industry. My clients hate Twitter so much that they really appreciate the updates I give them when something relevant gets Tweeted. (Fuck I can’t believe I just used the…

When funding for news departments started crashing a decade or two ago, you started to see a lot more of this really shit reporting that involved just slightly rewording press releases and presenting them to the public unchallenged.

The fact that Twitter somehow found a way to help “journalists” limbo under that very…

As far as I can tell, the only people who really find Twitter useful are trolls, PR people and lazy journalists.

Who the heck gives Tom Cruise shit about his career???

Why would somebody admit something patently incorrect? The movie is amazing, and only gets better with age.

Yeah, I don’t get it either. EWS is fantastic, a movie that only gets better with repeat viewings, and my sense of its legacy, this comments section notwithstanding, is that while critical appreciation has taken awhile (as it did similarly with pretty much all of his movies after 2001), it’s now generally well thought…

Wow. So a bunch of AV Club people here hate this wonderful movie. That’s kind of shocking considering, well, AV Club. Oh well. Remind me not to click on an Eyes Wide Shut article again without bracing myself first. Genuinely surprised.

I’m pretty sure he has stated that publicly. I’m also pretty sure that’s mentioned in this exact article.

This feels like something that should’ve been handled privately from all parties? I don’t know. Sounds like they all know each other pretty well and supposedly have good relationships with each other so the whole situation as to why this was made public confuses me a little.

As a Kevin Smith fan/apologist, after all this news about Harvey broke, I remembered Kevin mentioning being unable to work with Harvey Weinstein ever again on one of his podcasts a few years back. I recently re-listened to the episode and found the statement. This is from 2012.

If people in the grays are going to continually shit on every single sentient organism within a 10,000 mile radius of the state of California, and lump every single one of them into same group as the fucking actual rapists, then I don’t even know what the fuck anyone is supposed to do.

Well... they’re not wrong.

I’m not sure I see the problem with the Josh Barro suggestion. Added benefit, I won’t have to make up excuses all the time for why I don’t want to go to happy hour.
