The characters in The Godfather were also openly racist, but the movie is highly entertaining. The Deer Hunter made me feel like I'd been through Vietnam. If that was the point, great. I wanted all those characters to die. I wanted the characters in the Godfather to win. There's the difference.

Chariots of Fire, Out of Africa and The Last Emperor. Or do you mean which good movies weren't nominated?

You write sentences wrong. The Godfather and French Connection had racist and awful characters too. I'm not complaining about them.

Kyle, I am an Oscar nut, but the 80s are ridiculous. That was totally the era of the terrible prestige picture. Anything you can name as one of your favorites from the 80s might have been nominated for something (ET and Raiders got Best Picture nominations) but virtually every year was a terrible one for nominees.…

People talk up comedy not getting its due. Horror and sci fi fare even worse. Maybe he was being realistic. Out of the nominees that year, I'd have given it to Little Women or 42nd Street. Gold Diggers of 1933 is my fave from that year, but it was only up for Sound.

They were all horrible people. What prejudice did they have that did not go depicted? I know that movie is a classic and I'm in the minority, but they're taking down low hanging fruit up there.

Cavalcade is clearly the worst. Anybody who says otherwise hasn't seen it. It's only on VHS. So that's okay. Cimmaron isn't much better. Anything from year two - Invasion of the Sqawkies - is God awful. You all picked such usual suspects, movies that were entertaining but overrated. Around the World is a good choice.…

South Carolina can't even claim Hootie?

Is there nudity? Because I recall in the original Brooke Shields is so entranced with that guy's ass, she doesn't care that he burns down her house, fucks her mother, kills her father, and I may even have left something out.

This movie glorified their behavior. You'd think he'd thank the producers. Unless he has a stern wife and a couple of gingham dressed naifs at home now.

I don't get it. Should he have been blurry?

I'm bidding on this threeway.

One of the other writers, Ingrid Chavez, is credited with having stolen that beat. Given that hip hop is built on sampling, I'm surprised it was such a big deal. Madonna only claimed to have written "additional lyrics," I think the "poor is the man…" part. That sounds like her.

It's all in Mia's book (no new allegations in Dylan's piece, except that she's upset, and doesn't want actors to appear in his movies; even though her mother did during the trial and tried to after), I mean if you missed 1992. And if you missed '92, what are you doing reading this piece?

I don't think Madonna was blasting her anti pope statement. She was making fun of her (she tore up a picture of Joey Buttafucco). She and Sandra Bernhard also said Sinead was "as sexy as Venetian blinds," and were furious when Sinead's video won in the female pop category at the VMAs. It's typical Madonna, but think…

Link his ten best list.

I liked Franco in Spring Breakers. Best emotional montage set to a Britney Spears song ever.

I'm glad you took me seriously. I'll watch it again. Here's the key to Mulholland Drive: She touches herself.

I meant "sail" obv.

I'd love to see a movie about a jewish family dispatching a dybbuk. I can't think of one really. Silent Night, Deadly Night 4 and Pi - if that's horror - had a Lilith/Kabbalah angle, but really. There is a market. And there are at least a dozen Haunted Christmas movies I can name off the top of my head.
