Totally agree. The entire doc should have been about the Browns leaving Cleveland for Baltimore. Instead it was a lot of writers and broadcasters interviewing each other. Since 30-for-30 has produced so many excellent docs, this one stuck out as being kinda aimless. Since I'm from Cleveland, I was struck by how…

Chelsea was great.

As others have said, the comic isn't about gun control at all, and was published years before Sandy Hook. At the time, it seemed to be more of a meditation on the "security vs. privacy" debate of Bush's second term, with Tony Stark favoring a top-down approach to security and Steve Rogers believing in the fundamental…

Agreed on Goonies, John Hughes and The Wall.

Because Daria was a skinny kid. And a cartoon.

1970s television was a sea of awfulness.

Captain America: Winter Soldier is my favorite comic book movie, so I was prepared to love this one, and I just didn't. Several parts dragged. The conflicts between the heroes just seemed weak at certain places; there is one scene where Stark calls Bucky "Manchurian Candidate" (which is funny), and then 10 minutes…

Prince wouldn't be the first person whose own addictions were a betrayal of things he professed to believe in. So no, it didn't square with his faith, and yes, that probably intensified the shame he felt.

Seriously. If I had known the cameras were rolling, I wouldn't have been nearly as racist.

Heroes fighting heroes is, when you think about it, pretty dumb, but the comic companies have been milking that trope for years. The original Civil War mini-series actually provided a compelling reason for them to brawl, and it connected to Bush-era civil liberty debates happening in the real world, so I overall loved…

Prince videos are back on YouTube, so I did that. Forgot how great "Computer Blue" was. Also watched the original "Alien" on blu-ray.

When Handmaid's Tale first came out, I thought it was ham-fisted feminist fear-mongering (in my defense, I was pretty young). But now that the book is essentially coming true, I see how wrong I was.

I'm thinking they should put all of it in one glorious purple box set.

"Prince was a disciplined eater" is the understatement of the century. Guy never gained an extra pound.

I saw it on opening night in a huge, packed theater.

Us too. I really loved the fake trailers.

Prince's death reminded me how cool it was to see Purple Rain on the big screen in the late summer of 84.

The family on The Middle is solidly working class, with the husband going to a boring blue collar job, the wife doing mundane work (car sales and then dental hygienist), and the family's clear financial struggles illustrated by a modest, cluttered little house. Few shows even bother with people like that anymore.

Since we're headed toward full oligarchy anyway, I just voted for President Business. And I'm wondering if there are any over-the-top Agenda 21 presidents from the Left Behind movies or other Christian films that should have been on this ballot?

I bought Elephant, just like everyone else who was a bit late to the game, and then hustled back and bought all the albums before that. De Stijl is great but so are the other ones. Kinda wish Jack would have stayed in Michigan, like how Prince stayed in Minnesota, but I don't begrudge anyone following their bliss.
