"Arlington Hill" is good but "Keys" is such a release of emotion, it's one of those things that happens in a show that couldn't possibly happen without music. That's what I love in musicals. (I also really like "Come Down Now.")

Lots of Heathers is shockingly good. The Veronica is amazing.

Caroline, you don't mention if you've read much Wharton, but I actually find The Age of Innocence the least interesting and enjoyable of the five or six novels I've read of hers. Definitely the right choice to go with House of Mirth next.

Vanessa Hudgens as Rizzo? Julianne Hough in anything? (Did no one see Rock of Ages?)

Yeah, I forget who is reviewing The Muppets, but he not only intensely dislikes it while pretending he is trying to like it, but he still, this far in, doesn't even understand what the show is.

No, I don't remember when Judd Nelson was the villain. Is that true?

I really, really want to see Adonis Creed: Time Travelling Horse Surgeon. I know people say this kind of thing all the time, but I really want to see it. It just sounds amazing.

Why do you insist that I accept and admire Barnes and Noble? If you own it, surely you have better things to do. If you don't, get off my ass and go read a real book.

I will continue to happily and, obviously, truthfully blame Barnes and Noble for selling more junk than quality items. You know why people used to read better books than they do now? Because they were available. Not just to purchase, but to look at and think about and flip through and read in and…do I really have…

It also sounds like not only has he not seen it, he had never heard of it before. I wouldn't advertise my lack of film knowledge while reviewing films myself, but….

My Barnes & Noble had an entire bookcase (as in every shelf on one whole bookcase) filled with James Patterson. On the next bookcase, there was one copy of volume 4 of Proust's In Search of Lost Time. That was all the Proust in the entire store.

I wanted to hear about Another Country, where he is Rupert Everett's obsession. Surely he could find something negative to say about Everett, since everyone else does, including Everett.

How is His Girl Friday a good example when it's famous for having the (uniquely) fastest dialogue in all of film and it stars an American woman and a British man? I guess I should watch the video before complaining, but nah….

I'm pretty sure Yeun meant the zombie apocalypse world "still can take that story of the good guy winning sometimes," not our real world where of course we can. I don't know what you have against this perfectly nice-seeming young man, but you work very hard to make him look like a jerk and an idiot. He thanked…

I kind of get what you are saying, but when Jeanine Tesori won the Tony this year for Best Score, she said, "You have to see it to be it," saying how she only realized she could do musical theatre because she saw a woman conducting a show once when she was a child.

Prince-Bythewood and Campion, two more of my favorites. And two more I hope never direct a blockbuster shitpole.

I love Holofcener and Coppola but I haven't seen any of Reichardt's films. I've heard of them, but you are right, they are quite below the radar. I randomly watched Walking and Talking years ago just for Catherine Keener, but loved it and have followed Holofcener ever since. (Lovely & Amazing is exactly those two…

My only problem with Dowd is "by in large." I think saying that a movie has already been made just a few minutes ago and its remake brings nothing new to the table is a pretty thorough review. Go see the real one, then decide if you need another one for some reason. The Argentine film is excellent.
