It is a great delivery. Nearly makes up for his “Yeah? Well, you’re not from Chicago” in The Untouchables.

Also: Didn’t need a Hannibal Lecter origin story.

Films from the 11 century are often unfairly overlooked by today’s special effects-obsessed audiences.

Ignaty, I love your reviews but can you just stop with the right-wing stuff about the first one? It’s fucking nonsense. One of the big climaxes of the movie was Colin Firth beating the crap of some proto Trump voters, you don’t have to shriek BUT THEY KILLED OBAMA over and over. It was a dumb fun movie and an equal…

I know what you mean, man.

Fievel the mouse...just a HUGE Asshole.

He has people skills! He’s good at dealing with people! Can’t you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?!

Come one now. Yes he said something offensive, but nothing that’s even in the same league as the KKK. He made an ‘innocent’ joke in rather poor taste, that’s it. That illustrates the whole point that has riled me up somewhat. Maher is nothing but an example. He’s unimportant. It’s the extreme touchiness of so many…

Yes, he said something offensive. So what? That’s the whole shtick of so many comedians. They try to balance the line of just barely acceptable offensive jokes and sometimes they cross that line. If you personally find it so outright offensive you can’t take him serious anymore you can choose to not watch his…

Exactly. This kind of absurd faux outrage and liberal puritanism only pushes people away. I’m about as left as it gets politically and I still find this stuff obnoxious. I can only imagine what right wingers think of it.

So he invited an asshole fringe guest (which is kind of the point) and he, a comedian, made a tasteless joke. We don’t have to applaud those poor decisions, but come on. There’s nothing significant to be outraged about here. We would all benefit if people weren’t so incredibly touchy all the time.
