I'm with you. I went in with abysmal expectations, and ended up finding it enjoyable enough. That said, I agree with every criticism made in this great series of reviews - it just didn't stop it from being a watchable series for me, with some good moments.

Basically they kept setting up that they were going to show us a dragon, and then they…didn't.

Apart from The Elephant Man, The Straight Story is the only David Lynch movie that my mother approves of.

I don't know, seems like Inland Empire might have been more appropriate to watch on a computer than The Straight Story.

It's really bizarre. All-day marathons of those shows and South Park. Would it have killed them to do a Review marathon to run up to the new season to bring viewers up to speed?

To hype the new season, Comedy Central has been airing randomly selected episodes of Review at 3am on Saturdays amidst ads for phone sex lines. In other news, phone sex lines are apparently still a thing.

I agree, and have a similar reaction to the Bill Conti disco music in For Your Eyes Only. It ruins, for example, what is otherwise a pretty great chase scene in the ski resort.

Yeah, wet girls are sexy.

I loved that in Sinister, D'Onofrio LITERALLY phoned in his performance (or Skyped it in, anyway).

That was my first thought when I heard "Whitby" - PTA's Dracula! (I've visited Whitby, and it's an evocative little town, so I look forward to seeing it look beautiful in a PTA film.)

Actually my wife and I couldn't get through the last season of Community but we watched the first season of Other Space 1 and 1/2 times on Yahoo Screen. We loved Other Space, whereas Community, though still amusing, really needed to be put out to pasture.

I subscribe to the TCM Now Playing guide, and it's pretty funny that monthly columnist Martin Scorsese can't help criticizing TCM for grouping "I Vitelloni" under "I" instead of "V."

"You know who else was 'just following orders'? Adolf Hitler."

I leave it up to you as to whether you should be bothered by it - I would certainly love to have read this book as written by an African-American, even one with firsthand knowledge of the era he is writing about - but it is well researched and handled very sensitively. Nothing felt forced to me. I mainly valued it for…

My favorite novel this year was Lovecraft Country by Matt Ruff.
Runner-up would be Death's End by Cixin Liu (though my intellect admired that book more than my heart).

Thanks. If it's a more recent X-Men reference than the Chris Claremont era, I'm unlikely to get it.

I imagine at one point a check was cut and someone said, "Here's a billion dollars. Please run ads for this film everywhere, all the time, starting six months before the film is even due to open." It was one of the early signs that 2016 was going to be trouble.

Nice to see The Love Witch get a mention. I caught it at a film festival and was blown away. It's such a fun, subversive, aesthetically gorgeous satire, with ideas that you rarely, if ever, see expressed in films.

I had never heard of this movie and now I really want to see it. I would second the recommendations for Exotica and The Sweet Hereafter (though I haven't seen them in ages).
