I take back my original comment. I'll bet it would be cool to do that. I know a theater in Minneapolis that used to show film noirs (or at least did in August before showing other stuff). Also, I do go to film screenings.

you sounded like a lot of fun in high school. but sadly, cynicism being cool is relatively common in high school.

I'm glad we have a politics corner! I missed that thread at the AVOCADO before I was banned

the "dumb thing"? No, that's how TV should be watched!

I'm not sold on it that much, I feel like there are better examples of the terrible people having no self-awareness of how terrible they are genre but Billy on the Street is hilarious and one of the best things on TV. I can't understand why Difficult People is more solid?

I sympathize

I don't think he shows away from other genres. He has mentioned midnight in Paris as his favorite film of 2011 and toy story 3 the year before

I was about 13 and was really an outline missing most of this. I had never heard of Oz, I did watch Ally McBeal a bit bc I shared a TV w an older sister who picked the channel (I remember the sex scenes to be kind of exciting for my age), king of the hill I've never seen, I think I heard of the spice girls at summer…

Nostalgia hurts a lot, is that the case for other people too? The fact that it's 20 years after these events and the ppl associated w those memories and the feelings and thoughts I had and even these pieces of pop culture are so far away and gone just makes me depressed. Then again, I guess celebrating 1997 as if it…

I guess blockbusters might not have been as strong in 97 if people wanted to see an older movie. Yes it's star wars, but haven't most people except the die hard fans thought "ive already seen that" the two scenarios I could think of why it might have worked is if you put significantly more marketing hype and if they…

Yeah, it was too much of a tragedy to make me think I want to get more interested in the topic. Very depressing and haunting film. I ended up becoming a Titanic buff in like 2012 or 2013

I only developed an interest in Titanic on the 100th Nniversary when I read a super interesting ng article, then it turned into an obsession. I feel like back in 97 we were incapable of looking at the movie critically since its box office effect was overwhelming.

yes! where have you been all this time when these silly PC threads come across. this pretty much sums up everything wrong with the PC mentality….
i'm actually not that upset with Jill Solloway as opposed to most of the show runners

I've already declared something comment of the week but this would've been it

Julia Sweeney is one of the biggest A-listers in Hollywood now, how dare you take on one of the most beloved stars in Hollywood

Ironcially, Quentin Tarantino had a hand in the screenplay because he and Julia Sweeney were friends back in the day.

I think it's also worth noting that I've heard some horrible anecdotes about Roseanne Barr. Even if you want to try to make the case that she was a feminist icon, many of the women in her writing room were terrified of her. She had some sort of stand-off with Ken something-or-other online.

I think you might have a great point on Will and Grace. I actually think Sean Hayes had potential as an actor that the show sort of crushed. Like, I don't think he wanted to be the stereotypical gay person. I think he wanted to be different kinds of gay and straight characters

There's only a couple films in the theater I haven't seen yet that I'd like to: The Beguiled and now Atomic Blonde but I think I only started getting the desire to see Atomic Blonde when I read a review saying that convinced me and that was after I lost the opportunity to go earlier. My pop culture weekend was…

This is either the 6th or 7th Nolan film I've seen and ironically I did not like Dark Knight at all nbut he remains among the directors I look forward to bc Interstellar and Inception blew me away and I felt like Dark Knight Rises was a great ensemble film. I thought this one lived up to the potential, I might have to…
