At least it didn't have a tracking shot, or instant F.

I was so so so ready to like The Last Stand, but yeah, it's impossibly boring for a significant amount of it.

THE VENDING MACHINE BY THE MEN'S ROOM IS OUT OF ORDER!

I thought F was for movies so terrible/crazy as to be watchable.

I've always had him presented to me as a committed religious person since around when he started writing The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (in which he then added the Jesus stuff). I mean, he wrote a lot of straight-up theology and religious apologia - Mere Christianity is the book that a lot of Christians

But isn't the RT audience meter and IMDb a much better way to tell how audiences actually reacted to it than CinemaScore?

Yeah, that's what I meant by the parenthesis.

"Pay attention to the curtain, and believe hard enough that you see a man behind it until you do."

There are the Ig Nobels, which sometimes function as sort of scientific Razzies (and sometimes are just awarded to people who do ridiculous research about bugs farting or the like).

Kent Hovind, the creationist other creationists call crazy, says that the air was more oxygen rich back then, so lizards grew to be larger - hence dinosaurs.

What do you mean by Lewis not being religious?

I liked his performance but it is sort of a real-life experiment in the Kuleshov Effect.

What I've learned from Cousin Merle and an episode of Frasier where he talks about how he'll "hurl": The funniest syllable for Grammer to say is "rl".

I believe he's talking about the Spalding Gray movie, which is AWESOME.

It may not surprise you
But all of us despise you
Please die and fry in hell
You rotten rich old wretch
Adios viejo!

Yes, but the Soviet countries' relationships with modernism in music is an entirely different dynamic than Western countries' relationships, so it would be well outside the range of the paper - especially once you get into Stalin's fondness for film music.

Dude practically in every single comments section someone complains about Lena Dunham. It's not about gentrification, but I don't understand where this idea that everyone praises her comes from. It's one of the most irritating things about the commentariat here.

By defanging it, I just mean make it palatable for public consumption, by really focusing on the rhythmic elements, for example. It's hard to get too technical, since most of the scores aren't really available, but I don't think any of them use serialism - although there are exceptions, like the score for The

I'm specifically focusing on 50s B-movies, actually, and the way that the classically orchestrated atonal score develops through horror movies. If you go and listen to the scores of movies like The Screaming Skull, the music sounds like a freshman composition student trying to copy Schoenberg.

Someone else suggested the fight might be Bella-related, which I could totally see happening.
