I'm sticking with this, for now, because of Kiefer, and because the writing occasionally plummets from "bad" into "hilariously bad". But, two things:

Hey, at least this comment is weird, stupid, and about the topic of the article. So it's a step in the right direction for Mohd.

It's funny that this "Story of Us" conversation got started on a thread about how "This Is Us" is about butts. One actual scene from the movie - the longest and worst scene from the movie - is Rob Reiner himself, playing Bruce Willis's buddy, giving a rambling speech about how there is no such thing as a butt, merely…

I just watched that the other day. I can't believe anyone who hadn't seen it so recently would remember that it existed, never mind what she does for a living. Unless…were you *in* the movie? Are you Paul Reiser? If so, could you please drop the "Reiser" stage name? "Fistinyourface" is much catchier and you'd get more…

I knew there was someone I forgetting who fit the '90s TV theme! Thanks!

In fairness, the point where I lobotomize a man because I'm failing to do my job is pretty easily achieved.

Sonny's dick is two pages. But the whole subplot with her getting her vagina fixed is pretty significant, as is the other stuff that didn't make it into the movie (Johnny Fontane and his friend and their sexploits). I'd argue that the vagina subplot and the related characters (the woman, the doctor) takes up more…

I had a dream a hamburger was eating me!

I've been meaning to reread "The Fountainhead". It weirds me out how it starts with a perfectly okay (if slightly didactic) short story about character named things like "Howard" and "Peter" who have jobs and human motivations, but then takes a left turn into being a terrible philosophy textbook contrasting a guy…

Great call on RFAD and No Country (which I agree is very close). Carrie, absolutely.

*And* a random subject for a Fantastic Roles!

Aw, 42 minutes and other people have already provided my top two answers: "The Godfather" and "Jaws", both pulp novels turned into great movies. They're the gold standard for this question. Oh, and "The Graduate". That book was terrible.

I've never noticed her, but you get an upvote for wording that hilariously and acknowledging the stupidity of the comment. I'll keep an eye out for her next time I watch it.

That's…interesting. I don't really see an upside to that in any way, but you do you, mrniceguy26. Also, I like the first few seasons less than most people do, but thinking that the first season is the nadir is a pretty unique opinion.

The vintage episodes air on FX in the States? Man, I'm in Canada, and the FX reruns are all Lady Gaga, all the time.

I haven't seen a new South Park in about five years, and your comment got me to wondering: has it evolved since then? 1997 South Park was a completely different show from 2011 South Park - if it's become a third show, I kind of want to check that out.

Wow, that's crazy. I lived in London, ON, for a few years and don't remember ever hearing Sublime. Which isn't to say I didn't hear them—-just that I don't remember hearing them. It's weird how pop cultural ubiquity can be such a subjective thing.

Further to my previous comment:

I'm pretty culturally illiterate by AVClub standards, and I clicked on this because Brian Posehn is a name that's kind of vaguely entered my consciousness by osmosis, but I have no idea who he is. Now I know who he is. Thanks, Hatesong!

I don't know - referring to Tim Allen having been in prison kind of strikes me as closer to the "cruel" end of the spectrum than to the "killing it with kindness" end. I guess it depends how you read the joke—-when I originally thought it was a joke about Home Improvement being a show where Tim Taylor screws up so…
