As much as I thought the movie was a mixed bag, I will say that how it depicted the performances of the songs in the actual contest was spot. on.

What the world needs now is the lion of love!

And if that Russian Eurovision Committee is found to also be invading Ukraine, they’ll be allowed to continue competing and the final standings will be reviewed afterwards.

After consulting with the IOC, they stand firm in their decision not to let Russia participate. They will, however, allow an entry from the Russian Eurovision Committee.

As an American, I got all the exposure I need to Eurovision Song Contest from watching Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga.

I want to say I first started reading in the mid-2000s. I didn’t comment for a while because you’re spot-on that at that point in history you better come prepared because that was an educated crowd. I learned massive amounts about music and movies from other commenters, things I’d never heard of that are amazing. I…

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…

I do remember it from that John Harris book: Britpop! It Was All Over When Tony Blair Got Into Downing Street, Which Made Everyone Realize That Oasis and Pulp Sounded The Same. Their description of how Elastica was miserable and depressing stern-faced thug-written shite is quite eye-opening.

I feel I should offer a correction: While Olivier did say those words to Hoffman, the circumstances in which he said them were completely taken out of context and had nothing to do with critiquing the Method. Hoffman himself explained what happened: during the making of Marathon Man, he was going through a divorce,…

This would make a coppola them, yes.

“A group of thieves using high-powered speedboats to rob superyachts steal the wrong thing from the wrong group of people.”

But what if this so-called ‘delay’ is just a clever ruse, and when our guard is down, the waiter peels off his face, and it’s actually Mission: Impossible 7, and it totally fooled us?!

The 50 Cent Army? I guess they'll find something about the film they don't like...or die tryin'....

It would be great, but I see why it is hard. There are SO MANY books. You think there are a lot of streaming services or a lot of TV shows you never get around to seeing? There are like a thousand times as many books every month. I pretty much exclusively read SF, I read about a book a week, and the only author of…

Weird Al biopic? Farting boner corpse movie? That’s a sign of a man flush with child wizard cash, and I am here for it.
