I don't know how I just discovered you, but I have found my people. 60's and 70's Disney rules so hard.

The funny thing is that I was much more into The Smiths, Depeche Mode and Tears for Fears. I only went to the Jam because my best friend wanted to go and I had a crush on her older brother and he'd agreed to take us. These days, she and I are still best friends, I'm godmother to her brother's son, and he still…
Mountain lions, pumas, cougars, catamounts and panthers are names for the same species: Puma concolor. Florida panthers are one of more than 20 subspecies of pumas.
Troll tries trolling, sucks at it, goes back under bridge to pout and plot next strategy.

Yeah, did I really pay to see this racist douchenozzle play at the Texas Jam in 1985, when he had the whole Cotton Bowl crowd screaming along the lyrics to "Jailbait"? Oh, that wasn't awkward at all, even though at 14 I was perhaps too old for "The Nuge", and definitely too black (Well, who knows, actually. We all…
I see what you did there. (Will it ruin the joke to point out that cougar and panther are simply different regional names for the exact same big cat?)
This pretty much confirms what I expected. It is evidently a very divisive film; people seem to either love it or hate it. I don't know, I'm thinking it's time for a trial separation; Marty and Leo need to take some time apart.
I've been a fan of Spike Jones' work in the past, and I love that weirdo Joaquin Phoenix, so I probably will see it; just haven't gotten around to it yet. It sounds very precious and hipstery though, so I admit I haven't rushed right out, you know?
I don't know about that. I've seen insiders at Variety and the Hollywood Reporter saying it's undergoing a late-round surge. But with the Oscars, you never know...
It's the front-runner anyway. Personally I prefer Denmark's entry, The Hunt, with the fabulous Mads Mikkelson.
I have seen every film except Her and The Wolf of Wall Street. I've also seen most of the foreign film nominees and the documentary features. I love film and write about it for fun and occasionally profit, and I live in NYC, so I may not be reflective of the average moviegoer. <sarcasm>
Exactly. The show's creator has talked openly about his love for Chambers' work, and it is reflected throughout the show. As are more contemporary writers like Thomas Ligotti, and the work of the band Current 93, all heavily influenced by the genre greats like Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood and MR James. The…
If only more people knew that True Detective is basically an homage to horror literature, especially Robert Chambers The King in Yellow, the works of HP Lovecraft and Ambrose Bierce. Literary horror masquerading as occult murder...at least for now.
Sure. There is both religious and non-religious Satanism, and different permutations of those. Other organizations include the Temple of Set (an off-shoot of the Church of Satan), the Order of Nine Angles, The Satanic Temple, etc. LaVeyan Satanism is essentially libertarianism mixed with Social Darwinism dressed up…
Sadly, the loser in all of this is going to be Adelina Sotnikova. If there is a judging scandal, she will have an asterisk next to her name, and people will remember this and think she was a cheater who got a dirty gold medal.
As I said, I don't think Ashley wagner's score reflect anything more than the judges not caring for what is perceived to be an attitude problem. I personally respect her for being outspoken and unapologetic, and her treatment just illustrates how rigidly reinforced the gender biases in skating are. I think that's…
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I would suggest you read more of the detailed scoring breakdowns, available on sites like the Wired link above, to see more about what is problematic here. And you are surely knowledgeable enough about skating to know that one of the most frequent accusations is not…
In on what, since both Gold and Wagner are American? As I said in another thread, Ashley Wagner doesn't always achieve full rotation on her jumps, and sometimes cheats her edges on landings. The judges are hard on her, I think because she has a brash, aggressive air that doesn't endear her to some judges. Many felt…
