You should really go read it, Ice Cream Planet. It was brilliant and fun. Aside from being funny, Stalie gives some great advice.

Yeah, Twin Peaks! I am so looking forward to the new series of that.

Long Term Parking gutted me. When I've done rewatches of the series, I have to have a drink in hand while I watch it, and then stop watching for awhile after that episode. It's just… ugh.

KJ! You've made it to the Mothership!

I think it works as a primer. It has clips from many of the films, though nothing really spoilery, and it will make you want to watch just about every movie that they mention. It's interesting on a historical, sociological and entertainment level.

The show was perfect until they made the movie. It started going off the rails then. When they killed off half the police force and brought in new people, it became unwatchable.

I will absolutely have to go there. German films from that time period were so much more interesting, and often much more complex, than American films. Don't get me wrong, I love Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, but you really can't compare The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari or M with anything that was made in the US at…

I'm with you on Melancholia. Kirsten Dunst was incredible in that, and the visuals at the ending were absolutely astounding too.

It's pretty horrifying. I'm not someone that scares or disturbs easily. David Lynch is my favorite director, for chrissakes. But that film involves a clitoridectomy with scissors, along with male genital crushing and the dude ejaculating blood afterwards, and I honestly can't watch it ever again.

I'm not saying it's a bad film in any way. It was really good, and very disturbing. But I can't sit through watching Charlotte Gainsbourg chopping off her clitoris with scissors again. I just can't do it.

She.

Antichrist is a film I absolutely never have to see again for the rest of my life. I watched it mostly alone, and my wife walked in and watched it right at that scene. (You know what scene.) She looked at me in horror and asked me what the fuck I was watching.

Early this week, I watched this really interesting documentary called From Caligari to Hitler on Netflix. It was about German expressionist films from 1910-1931, and wondered if any of the films were predicting Hitler's rise to power. While the documentary itself was fascinating, it made me want to track down every…

Trailer Park Boys. I've seen the whole series so far a few times, so it's something unchallenging and funny to watch when I'm hungover/sick/otherwise miserable.

While the entire episode was amazing (as always) one thing I really liked was the scene with Penelope and her father arguing in French around Chip, and how it wasn't in subtitles. It sort of made me feel lost, the way Chip somewhat did in the middle of that conversation before they started speaking English. That was a…

My dear friend finally had her baby, and he is the cutest little shit I've ever seen in my life. I swear to god, being an aunt has totally warped my perception on how I see babies. Still glad I'm not having them, but I can giggle at their big, sweet, dumb faces.

I just read No Country for Old Men for the second time for a class I'm in. It is quite a fine novel, and a very quick read.

It's just stupid. You're putting yourself at risk of being grabbed easily by your opponent, and it's a mess to take care of. If I was in an apocalypse scenario/warring time and didn't kill myself first (I totally would) my long hair would be the first thing to go.

Whoa, didn't know that about his hair. I don't understand why straight women find him so attractive, or why he's so popular anyway. He ceased being interesting when Merle died.
