Also when he blurted out George Bush hates black people at a Hurricane Katrina telethon. Now that I think of it that was probably one of his most sane public outburst. 

I got a great William Hurt story.

It was about a decade ago. I was working my crappy art supply retail job in Portland. William Hurt walks in, and I don’t believe it’s really him.

Woman I’m ringing up points to him and says, “That’s William Hurt!” I turn around to look, and think, “Nah. Why would William Hurt be here?”

Sh…

“Memorable film actor?” Seriously? In addition to being a steaming hot physical presence, he showed the kind of commitment and nuance in his work one rarely sees now. Another ‘small’ film - Altered States (folks might have heard of it) was daring for a 1980s film and it has held up over time.

As someone with Indian heritage, I am so thrilled that this viewpoint is published here. I fully heart this and agree.

I love how it took Kanye losing his shit even more than usual for you guys to talk about Pete Davidson as if he’s at least semi-human

Congratulations GMG UNION! Way to go!

Farewell Dowd. You and basically everyone working at this site were so much better than J/O Media deserved.

Dowd, I’m glad the last movie you reviewed for this site was a halfway decent one. I’ll miss your good work around here.

I don’t understand the point being made here. Unless I’m missing something, this comes off as a self-own by Jez. Friedman’s piece may not be the most insightful op-ed about the war in Ukraine, but (unlike the critique published here) it is cogent and fairly well argued.

If you have a critique of Friedman’s piece,…

“They’re not sending their best”

Hey folks. I just wanted to drop in and say thank you to everyone here for all the kind words, and also for reading what I’ve written at The A.V. Club these past nine years. I know I wasn’t always the most consistent presence in the comments, even before the Kinja transition, but I dipped in fairly regularly, and for…

Meanwhile, the rest of us in normal income society, with mental health issues, brain trauma, and or complicated grieving issues are expected to act like adults, and face consequences for our actions.

That has to be WARM sitting 2 feet from that glowing metal.

I’ve never listened to Joe Rogan, and frankly, I never will.

I think a dedication in the opening credits would be fitting.

Oh yeah I’m not saying the other actors were weaker than her, or weak at all, just that I thought she was the heart and soul of the movie, so it’s weird to think of a sequel without. Will the sequel just have another ‘beacon of morality and kindness’ because I can’t really imagine the movie just centering on Blanc

Ana de Armas is in the trailer, but is she in the movie? No way I’m getting burned on that again.

Will there be sexy, sexy saxophones on the soundtrack? You can’t do erotic thrillers without one

I hear Pete Davidson is willing to step in if Kanye can’t perform.

Consider this your periodic reminder that Kanye tried to help Donald Trump get reelected, to the point of allowing some shady shenanigans done in his name. I don’t know why nobody seems to remember or care
