An intermezzo of iniquity!

An aria of argle bargle!

Disney unfortunately shelved all their sci fi franchise reboot plans when they acquired the rights to Star Wars, because otherwise I’d be down for that.

Has anyone confirmed Peter O’Toole’s whereabouts at the time of the crime?

I’d probably need at least $5000 to seriously consider quitting Facebook for an entire year. It’s pretty much the exclusive way I communicate with friends and family who live outside my hometown and it’s a great way to get information on new product releases in a centralized place.

My girls are listening to the men sing about how they only want a woman who looks good and can cook, and there is no sense without context that those views are objectionable. I had to do some serious explaining on those.

The behavior is still stupid even if it’s easier to give in than to put up with harassment or if he promised to leave her alone after that (since, based on his past conduct, there would be no reason to believe giving in would stop the harassment or that he would honor such a promise).

I always thought “Hoosier” was a nickname for someone from Indiana and that “Indianan” was more proper? (Chrome spellcheck seems to bear this out in that it didn’t flag “Indianan” as being wrong when I typed it.)

You-TAWN, in my experience.

It’s not pretending to follow another religion to merely attend a service at a different religion’s house of worship....

Is it not considered insulting to attend the church services for a religion you don’t believe in while visiting a location whose community you aren’t a part of?

Voted by whom?

I’m in a similar boat — I’ve seen none of them, never heard of 16 of them before this list, and, of the nine I’d previously heard of, four of those I only know from seeing mentions of them by people in the context of year-end “Best Films” lists, so it’s more “meta-awareness” than actually knowing anything about them.

Sorry,the behavior of the priest and coach were both bad, but I can’t get past the fact that they named their kid “house” in French....

Except that I don’t have any issue with those ingredients. (And that example is kind of funny — Southern Comfort Eggnog is my wife’s favorite eggnog.)

I love eggnog, but it’s absolutely not worth making your own. There are very good commercially-available eggnogs that don’t really cost much more than what the ingredients would cost to make your own.

Yeah, Betteridge’s Law of Headlines says that any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word “No,” and I’d say the rule holds here.

I suspect that both theories can be true. There is probably some additional market for women-led movies, but I agree that women-led films are also on average likely to be of higher quality due to studio concerns about the viability of women-led films. It’s kind of a variation on the “Daniel Day-Lewis Never Made A Bad…

That’s actually what I was expecting based on the lead image for the post.
