How about a mace with some mace in it?

You should have then shouted, "No wait, I meant, Mar-Vell's nega-bands!"

I think part of this perception is based on the comics, where the rivalry between DC and Marvel is quite real and has existed for decades.

For the curious:

He's dead-on with his specifics about how 2001 is not an actor-centric experience, but I think he is making a statement on the movie itself with his dismissive, "That was a movie where people smoked dope, went to the movie and laughed". I think to appreciate cinema fully, you can't just focus on the acting, which…

Pono or GTFO!

How quickly will I binge-watch Orange Is The New Black? Not quickly — I am still trying to catch up with Better Call Saul, Fargo, The Handmaid's Tale, Master of None, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Silicon Valley, Veep, American Gods and House Of Cards. Also there is this weird new show called Twin Peaks that I…

(reaches into desk drawer for Alaska 4-Nine and Arizona 4-Eight spec scripts)

Yeah, her emotional finale was the elevator scene, and that is where her "story" ended. The later hotel room scene was just a coda to show where her character might be going. Nothing wrong with any of that.

Try the Ivanka Indica. The vibe is more mellow, kind of sheltered feeling.

It's allowed now only via special ceremony, wherein the market sits fully covered while penetration is performed on a second, proxy market, called a "handmarket".

A Most Violent Year: For a movie that recreates graffiti-strewn pre-Guliani New York as the backdrop for a taut crime drama starring Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain, AMVY seems like it should be better than it actually is. But there are still plentiful pleasures, from the array of character actors to the handsome,…

I was so happy a game allowed me to use meat to sic ravenous animals onto enemies. It's the thing I remember the most about Far Cry 4.

Also here to provide a punch in the snoot to any Mark Kozelek fans who show up.

Love these guys; I was just listening to Lost in the Dream again today. While this new track is a bit synthy for them, and they decidedly do NOT sound like Springsteen, the War On Drugs is a solid indie band that actually plays rock and has a healthy appreciation for the classics. Looking forward to the new one!

Yes, there is in fact such a cut, the so-called Lost Cut which was created in 1977 by British editor John Jympson. It includes about ten minutes or so of Luke's life on Tattooine — mainly hanging around and being abused by his mates at Tosche Station while wearing a goofy Gilligan hat, and also being reunited with…

I read something years ago on this topic that I wish I could find again, but it was a quote from an expert of some kind saying that it's television actually that hypnotizes your brain, whereas seeing a film places your brain into something more akin to a state of reverie. Not sure who said that, but I've found it to…

I'm spoiled because I live within 5 minutes drive of a nice theater and can zip over there specifically for less popular showings where the kids with their screens aren't there. And I've definitely done so many, many times since 2011, so maybe I'm the exception to your rule.

Straight Outta Compton: As paint-by-numbers a biopic as the critics said, but deepened by the backdrop of Rodney-King-era L.A., with pointed confrontations with police that resonate too sadly today. Even as a non-NWA-fan, I was already familiar with most of the actual story beats here, including Eazy E's tragic end…

Yes. Surprised this wasn't more obvious from the getgo. BB-8 liked Rey from the first moment, but he had clearly imprinted onto Poe; they were partners. It'd be wrong for BB to leave Poe on such a long trip unless he was vitally needed for something, whereas it's perfect for R2, having (like Luke) spent the bulk of…
