I'm not underestimating SCOTUS appointments, nor am I saying that "POTUS isn't shit."

Oh, I know about vetoes. But vetoes don't pass an agenda, do they?

Which ones? And again: Why on Earth would a person vote 3rd party for President when that party has a grand total of zero members in Congress?

Jesus H. Christ, people. Stop fixating so much on the White House. The president can only enforce existing laws, which have been largely passed by the establishment you're decrying.

Well, there is something that prevents third parties from winning presidential elections: it's that third parties have weak influence, meager resources, and they're trying to win a nationwide contest where they have to win the majority in multiple states.

Why on Earth would a person vote 3rd party for President when that party has a grand total of zero members in Congress? The President can only enforce laws that are already there, which means that a 3rd party candidate can only act as far as the existing laws let them.

More movies should end with Daniel Day-Lewis punching Leonardo DiCaprio.

Yeah, I wouldn't say either of those two are necessarily flawed, but unlike Goodfellas, the fall from good times into bad seems more drawn out, making it harder to watch as just one bad thing after another happens.

Yeah, the end is such a downer. I'd put that in the same category as a lot of Scorsese movies, as I elaborate on in my comment above.

I never realized it until now, but I always forget about the fourth Indiana Jones movie too. Let's just keep calling it a trilogy, kind of like how people still call Star Wars a trilogy even though there are a lot of auxiliary stories that others have added to it.

I really love Scorsese, but I have a hard time getting to the ends of his movies. This might partially be because his films tend to be long and partially because he often chooses tragic figures, but it seems as if the momentum really sags as he starts to wrap things up. As much as I love their beginnings, I…

Don't forget the synthesized hand claps and dog barks.

Oh, certainly, to mature a little bit is expected, but they went from making music that actually lived up to their band name to music that would have been better released by the Buttery Mild Creamed Corns.

In other news, Tobey Maguire was turned down from playing Peeta Malark in The Hunger Games for being "too young."

The only time Tobey Maguire doesn't look like a 12 year-old is when he grows his beard. Then he looks like a 12 year-old with a beard.

Quick, get the banners!

Is it? So she got turned down for a movie for not having the right "look" for the part. Welcome to the world of professional acting.

I'm still wondering what the hell that thing was he said he was taking pictures with. It looked nothing like an iPhone, and he didn't even take a single selfie!

Well, let's see: Tobey Maguire hasn't been seen in years, while I'm pretty sure there's a federal law against making anything without Elizabeth Banks in it, so it doesn't seem like missing it out on a badly-aging superhero movie has done her much harm.

I'll take a weenie in two buns, but she can hold the pickle.
