I might be forgetting something, but I'm pretty sure the only film I saw in 2014 with worse performances than this was ANGRY VIDEO GAME NERD: THE MOVIE. And because I've seen almost every single member of the exceptional cast do great work elsewhere, I've going to go ahead and point a finger at Araki.
How did the words "Emissary of Hell" not appear in this piece? Also, Marvel.com had the full subtitled series on their site a few years ago, so 2 episodes seems stingy.
That's why I used "Target Cashier" instead of "Public Defender," because THE GOOD WIFE already features well-rounded characters serving in that role, and it's not the defeatist take on the legal system a show like, say, BENCHED depicts, despite that, at least in my experience, probably being more accurate.
Sure it was misguided, but it wasn't the heavy-handed Very Special Episode this review makes it out to be, and the writers never lose sight of Alicia's fallibilities.
I thought the Kitchen scene, contrasted with Chris Matthews' ludicrous (and, frankly, over-the-top restrictions), was more a statement about the failings of televised Debates, and how an actual "town hall" should operate to engage voters on the issues when they are free of coaching and playing to the cameras.
Mmm Marnalingus
This is a nice show to put on after you've just seen WHIPLASH.
Glad to have the show back, but I'm always going to wonder how glorious the prison season might have been.
FANBOYS, the film Crystal was promoting, is the anthesis of THE ROOM: an intentional comedy and an inadvertent piece of shit.
Oh, how I want a ringtone of "What is chicken? What is symbol?"
Starring Kip, as Ant-Man.
I approve of Lyndsy Fonseca as Peggy's neighbor in the Griffith Hotel, A Residence for Women, but until proven otherwise I'm taking it for granted that Buffy and Hildegard live on the other side.
"Spine." Riiiiight.
No disagreement here. If this was an After School Special it would deserve all of the Emmys.
Drinking Game: Pretend the show is called DOWNTON PLANTATION, then do a shot every time Mr. Carson has dialogue that could belong to Hattie McDaniel's Mammy.
"Lede"
Meanwhile, over at the Houston Good Will, his extra daughter Lozenge's old crap sits forsaken under 2 inches of dust.
Random Thoughts:
I have crushed on Marion Cotillard since the original TAXI trilogy when you couldn't take your eyes off of her, as The Girlfriend, despite all the stunts and spectacle. And I've been known on occasion to say "I would watch _____ watch paint dry" when I admire (or am attracted to) an actress.
