I think you mean a Blazing Saddles joke, but point taken. And you're right — she would've been great for a random roles!

It is possible that he was speaking conversationally, and sometimes you insert a comment between names or forget someone for a second or just plain talk in a way that doesn't read like a prepared statement. Everything isn't racist.

Yes. Everything on Kimmy Schmidt (and on 30 Rock before it) is a cartoon — deliberately. So when something that touches upon your experience or personal beliefs is treated in a cartoonish manner, relax. That's the whole point of the show. They still make fun of rich conservatives, too.

As soon as I watched this episode, I knew exactly what sort of review it was going to get. Thanks for not disappointing me.

I'm old enough to think of it as a "McLean Stevenson"

Right. Adam Schlesinger. That guy is a master of the three-minute pop song.

I'm sure those guys got sick of it, but it's a genuinely great pop song. It's insanely catchy and, most importantly, during the movie, we the viewers never get sick of it.

And a hell of a year for Always Sunny, too

No. Most definitely not.

Didn't Jeffrey Tambor become a regular on "The Ropers" during its short run?

I remember seeing the first episode when I was 10. It was just on, following whatever show we had been watching, and mom and I watched until she realized what the plot involved and promptly turned it off.

Once place I think commentary tracks really work well is on trailer compilations. There's no other way to include information about the movies themselves when they're presented in such a brief format, so the background info supplied by the Alamo Drafthouse guys (and other experts, depending on the disc) is always

That Used Cars track is one of the best I've ever heard.

But hey, 69. right?

Wasn't he up for the lead in Django Unchained, but didn't want to play a "sidekick"?

I don't think most people who saw TFA had any idea Phasma was played by a woman.

And, of course, the furious outcry about Mary Jane not being lily white arrived right on schedule. It may be 2016, but it's 2016 in our current, screwed-up, backwards world.

Exactly. TFA, while a good movie, was sterile and, more than anything, safe. Like it was test-marketed within an inch of its life. That can guarantee a certain level of professionalism and quality, but by smoothing out all the rough edges, it also eliminates the weird little elements that make a movie special. People

Am I missing it, or did "The Wrestler" not make this list? And if not, why not?
