Paddington in Patagonia seems like a missed opportunity, on the same continent and everything. Unless that’s gonna be the sequel. 

Yes musicians do stuff for money but someone with her wealth she could easily turn this down. The way if someone from, say, Trump 2024 called and asked me to do a job for them I’d turn it down. (Something similar happened to me in 2016 actually, and the amount I turned down was proportionally way more than Beyonce’s…

The movies that work their way into culture have a certain magic to them, they transport you. I was as excited as anyone to see what Cameron had been up to since Titanic but I never left the theater for a second. Yes, the technical advances were impressive, but to what end? It’s not a 160 minute hype reel for a CGI…

My take too. Even for 2020s AV Club, the arguments are incredibly weak. If it’s not an advertorial the writer has missed his calling. 

Smoke??? FFS, do you even movie?

It’s a Darren Aronofsky movie, which means unrelenting, exploitive sadism. Emotional torture porn. See at your own risk.

Why do you say Red State is not a Kevin Smith movie? Genuine question, because I wonder how he managed to make a genuinely good movie exactly once in his career.

99% of articles about him leave out how his manager threatened these women into keeping silent after the fact. To me this is crucial to understanding what he did and why he was cancelled (sort of). He never exposed himself to, say, female execs at HBO. It was strictly comedians, female actresses and other women with…

Same thing I thought. Whether or not you respect the committee, Congress, government or whatever, have some respect for yourself and your fellow Americans and put on some adult clothing.

You almost want to see the court go ahead with it, just so that Cohen’s lawyers get to bring up in discovery how Moore was banned from his local mall for perving on teenage girls.

So no one can ever criticize comedy because it’s comedy... That’s some really snowflaky bs right there.

I was a fan and watched The Closer wanting to believe his critics were wrong. But that whole segment was pretty much what people are saying it is — a very, very long, weirdly defensive, sloppily conceived transphobic rant with a few lukewarm ha-ha’s so he could pretend it’s comedy. There were parts of the special I…

Students organizing in this sort of way is 100% a valid exercise of free speech. People criticizing or boycotting Netflix for continuing to showcase and defend Chappelle’s sad decline into bitter irrelevancy is also free speech. Boycotts and speaking out as an organized group against an undemocratic entity like a…

Her body her choices, and I understand 100% how f’d up it is that many female actors over a certain age are forced to either go under the knife or find another career. But as a viewer I find her plastic surgery distracting, to where with Bird Box it took me out of the movie. I can’t help it.

It’s a shitty poster but don’t blame the designer. I’d bet my pinkie toe they submitted 30-100 great ideas and after 100-300 revisions the various art directors, marketing folks, execs, and agents involved bounced it down to this.

Were the visuals in Dune *that* great? I saw nothing that made me go Wow, and nothing original. It looked a lot like DV’s other movies, and Lynch’s version for that matter, plus Giger and Moebius’s 45 year old Jodorowsky Dune sketches, and a lot of Moebius in general. A lot of the CGI looked flat to me, and the irony…

I was... Guess the Ambien kicked in before the Ritalin wore off.
