Lovely timing. Wait long enough for astute critics to deconstruct the movie, then publish a “hot take” on it a week late. Maybe links to the reviews you cribbed for your analysis would have beefed this up.

2004, late August — an election year, but the Houston Astros are in the heat of a pennant race. Which is what I expected to hear on a Fox Sports radio top of the hour update I happened to catch. Because Roger Clemens was the sound bite they were teasing — pitching for the Astros, trying to win a pennant. Nope. Fox…
Nancy Meyers’ daughter directed Reese Witherspoon’s latest picture. Perhaps that no-talent Geist offspring, or Mika or Ben Mankiewicz or a Lyons spawn, or a Wallace or Russert, will interview her about her struggle. Never forget how pissed Jason Reitman was when I used the phrase “magic surname” in an interview with…
Wasn’t worth CinemaSins detailing its factual/logical/rational/plot/acting/dialogue failings. And someday you’ll disown this ill-considered half-assed “defense.”
Yeah, let the Orange Terror experience Red Terror — Russian build quality.
It was the White Sox who hosted the Death to Disco Night, back in the day, right? Perhaps the Cubs could do a similar service. A different rapper doing the Anthem every day for a couple of weeks. A couple wouldn’t embarrass themselves. The OG crowd like Cube? Not a singer in that bunch. Black, brown or white. That…
That look like it’s in the water, Yankee? Nope. Photo op at the end of US1.
Translation: So his badgering email pitches for attention paid off, at least with Deadspin. (Believe me, I know).
I read her “SNL” turn as a desperate attempt to double down on her whole “Bigger, brasher equals better” approach to music. She wants to sell out stadiums, and this is almost certainly her last shot at doing it. I figure she’s a year too late in abandoning the glitz and doing what she SHOULD have attempted with the…
You’ve edited, what I infer from his answers, your question positing the thesis you make with your headline — you’re the one who interprets this as a breakdown of “patriarchy.” And Shults is, uh, too polite to say “You’re missing the point.” So let me. The larger idea is this “What are we surviving for, if not to…
Comedians/satirists do have license. Michael Richards? Maybe not so much. But Maher, context? You’re wasting energy on the wrong offense. His kowtowing to Julian Assange is still the worst crime on his rap sheet, cowering after a threat from a tool willing to help Fox News slander a dead DNC employee because it suited…

Typo—15,000 vote margin for Onwurah, not 1500.
Mostly middling reviews. And what I’ve heard of it? Death spiral, gimmicky synthesized bubblegum that she is plainly too old to peddle. Find a fork, stick it in her. Swift? The end cannot come soon enough for that auto-tuned shrew.
Seriously? These movies are never about “The Mummy.” I liked the light tone, sort of a darker spin on the Brendan Fraser films with a novel story and way of telling the story. And you missed the real “romance” that makes it run (such as it does). Nick will do anything to rescue sidekick Vale (Jake Johnson) from a…
Pity you/she didn’t watch “Captain America: The First Avenger.” Starring Chris Evans. A movie which had the same fucking ending. Different vintage bombers. But whatever, ladies.
“Developed world” I think you mean. Not “word.”
Read her latest book, and like the crux of her career (post her most revealing “performance,” on “Seinfeld” as a delusional/manipulative/blood-sucking “victim” who makes hay out of her alleged tormentors) she comes off as utterly lacking self-awareness, mean-spirited and a total attention whore. I regarded this whole…
Garner felt the need to say she didn’t “authorize” a cover story? Lady, you’re in the public eye. Your denial had a lot of not-exactly-denying-the-facts-of-the-story to it. Not usually People’s style of puffery, piecing something together second hand, but griping about a story you didn’t “authorize” is Trumpian.
If they’re not crowd-source identified, nothing at all happens. They’re as safe as any other troll. Attaching a name/location, Facebook profile to the offender delivers consequences. Anonymity is their safe space — to rant, revel in their bigotry and be secretly celebrated by others who see them in the “spotlight.”
