I’ve been listening to their albums for more than a decade on Pandora.

I say it’s sacrilege to watch Dekalog on the big screen: watch it only on a Polish rabbit-eared tv, the way it was originally intended!
Is it an adaptation of Michel Houllebecq’s novel of the same name? I’d like to be able to pretend I’ve read contemporary French literature.
I remember the replaced music being a particularly effective element of the “What if the credits rolled as soon as someone said the title?” videos.
I don’t know about many examples of unisex soccer leagues, but there was an informal scrimmage a couple years ago between the U.S women’s team and the FC-Dallas under-15 boys team.
Scorsese previously cast DiCaprio as an Irishman, so DeNiro isn’t much of a surprise. Who knows if he can pull off the accent better than Cameron Diaz.
Pesci got to be the lead in “The Public Eye”. Admittedly, I haven’t seen that.
I will give season 3 credit for at least one thing: when Will recreates the Leeds murders, it really brought back the horror after the Italian escapades had started treating everything like a joke.
I think the Mexican original is much better. The American remake is more of a standard horror movie, has less of a sense of place, adds a stupid backstory with flashbacks to explain why the family is that way, no longer makes sense in terms of why they’ve gotten away with it for so long, assumes viewers need to…
Scarface doesn’t end with Tony taking out some rival gangsters. The fifth season is necessary for Walt to reach peaks of success far beyond whatever money his family might actually need, and then face some consequences for his actions. Usually people say that Ozymandias is the proper “last episode” of the show, with…
What didn’t seem calm about my H&CF comment? It’s Hannibal that I’m angry about!
I think I watched the first two episodes and dismissed the series, but later critics insisted it got better with later seasons, so I jumped ahead to the last episodes of the first season. I still don’t think season 2 is all that great either, although de-emphasizing Joe (who was more central to the first season) tends…
I was sure there would be a lot more people saying it. It’s usually the go-to example for tv critics (that I read) of a show that peaked in its final season.
I didn’t think Trolling_for_Downvotes had made the migration to Kinja.
The penultimate season was disappointing, as if they were saving everything good for the finale. But that good stuff in the final season was really good.
Halt and Catch Fire might have improved with every season, but it started at a low enough point that even at its best it wasn’t that great.
The third season of Hannibal was TERRIBLE. I can enjoy the fan-service from Crawford repeatedly tossing Hannibal through glass, but at the end of it Crawford just lets him limp away. “Jack up the law” Crawford, who was intent on killing the Chesapeake Ripper, he wouldn’t do that and then tell Will “Maybe I need you to…
I tend to have a low opinion of the Duffer brothers, but I have to give them credit for one thing: the original Terminator being better than T2 is the correct opinion.
Do you like Friedberg/Seltzer parody movies?
