"The Girl in the Cafe" is one of my favorite movies of the 2000's, with some brilliant interplay between Nighy and Kelly Macdonald. When I first heard David Yates was being handed the Harry Potter movies, I remember being super excited. Obviously, that didn't pan out. I recently watched 'Fantastic Beasts' and can't

I'm actually very cool with what Lorelai did, and totally thought her sharing those stories was in character.

"Sorry, did I accidentally step into 2003?" made me laugh so hard people from the other room came in to see if I was ok.

This show is its dialogue, and it is a sharp as ever.

Neither Carrie Fisher or Mark Hamill are good actors and Harrison Ford quite clearly gives a "I'm going to be a 70's charmer in a space opera because fuck it" performance.

Songs in the Key of Life, often called the greatest statement of optimism in music. AV Club reviewed it five years ago, and one of the comments really stuck with me:

Dear Netflix,

Parts Unknown had the single best episode of television I've seen this year, Bourdain's trip to Manila in the Philippines.

As someone who lives in that area, it'll probably be bought by some rich chinese businessman who will knock it down to build a stucco monstrosity three times as large with completely out of scale ionic columns.

Yeah, I too am confused about the Sherman-Palladino thing. I'm assuming she's been working heavily on Gilmore Girls for the past couple and the next couple of foreseeable months, so where is she going to find time to do this pilot?

With the way her storyline is going, she's like that job candidate who has a resume a mile long of the most impressive achievements: straight A's, president of six different clubs, had internships at all the best places; and yet still can't find a job after graduation.

Better than Clapton. In contention for the second spot with Zappa. Hendrix is the unassailable first.

On that interview, McCarthy says Gilmore Girls was a show that was, "near and dear to my heart for four years."

The hidden track after "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" is aptly titled "Sweetest Thing (Mahogany Mix)" because it is fucking sweet. One of my favorite songs in all of Lauryn Hill-dom.

Bunheads' one season may have been as good as or better than any individual Gilmore Girls season. The half-season finale "A Nutcracker in Paradise" and its companion premiere "You Wanna See Something" is a wonder of creativity and dramatic writing.

This one picture says all the thousand words about this story…

A lot of the sets, including the school hallways and the circular diner, looked like the ones from Saved By the Bell.

Sam Phillips. The strummy la-la-la's are pretty crucial.

He shot Jurassic World on film, then overlit it so that it washed out the "film glow" that is the reason anybody would shoot on film, then tried to hide his error by color correcting everything in a blue-y tint that ended up making the film look like it was shot on digital.

Isn't the plural of Prometheus Promethei?
