That’s why he and Kevin Hart get along so well. Hart is similarly a walking promotional “hustle grindset” grifter. Sellouts in the mold of Krusty himself.

Stuff like “The State” was stuff that made me aware I was watching something that was clearly hilarious to only the people making it.

Blue Ruin is INSPIRED. Great concept executed near-perfectly.

Other potential “I Have No Mouth” directors: (shoot, let’s just get a Netflix anthology with all these guys’ takes on it!)

I was DRUNK in a bar! They _threw_ me into “public.”

Well how many abo-digitals do you see winning Oscars, how many do you think?

Dafoe in the Lighthouse was a revelation. Best nautically-themed role for him since The Life Aquatic.

Memento is a wholly original and compelling screenplay: the movie itself was rough around the edges.

Imagine if Games Workshop had partnered with ID Software back in the day to provide the lore and characters for Doom: that’s basically what Boltgun is and it’s awesome.

_I don’t know how “Eminence Front” is missing from this list!_

“Beer and bathroom break” songs are essential for many a band’s sets. That would be an excellent list to put together actually.

This is a similar dynamic to Oasis during their heyday: with Noel Gallagher writing all music and lyrics to their big hits in the 90's and early 2000s. (Later on, Liam would contribute his own songs, some of which charted in the UK).

The Redwall series were so fun to read as a kid: but IIRC, the first book was really the best distillation of the formula and the others expanded upon it.

December 27th...Tenth day of night court.

That is absolutely what happened here. Unfortunately, too often in Hollywood original scripts get bought by studies and are mutated into stories for existing franchises because that’s a more of a sure bet than developing something completely new. It’s a miracle that the first season of True Detective was made as it…

The fact that pretty much the entire reveal of the ending relied on Danvers discovering evidence of that specific character with that one defining trait leaving a distinctive clue right where it needed to be was too much. That strained credulity to the breaking point. Also it’s like, “there’s a full-grown man holding…

Agreed on the atmospheric and pretty. The setting was so immersive and lived-in that I didn’t hesitate to spend six hours in Ennis. That element really carried the show for me. I think if this show was just called “Night Country” it would not be so heavily scrutinized. Take out all of the True Detective season 1…

It was implied that they were mining for unobtainium. 

“Even Season 1 was poorly written and trite and obnoxious.” Yeesh, what shows do you consider to be well-written?

The setting is so damn cool though, I kinda think this show would work better as a game a la “Alan Wake” or “Silent Hill.” A co-op with Danvers and Navarro fighting off nomads, snow demons and possessed polar bears and wolves while interrogating suspects, listening to lore-filled recordings in all of these wild, snowy…
