I dunno— I might trade a couple days of suffering for getting to watch a sweet-ass giant wolf eat the moon. That'd be neat.

He wasn't our best president, but he's probably the best person to ever be president.

This is how Bernie can still win, everyone!

My dad is a damn science teacher and still thinks that he has a severe MSG allergy, despite being able to eat Campbell's Soup and Doritos— which contain it in vast quantities —with no ill effects.

I'm pretty sure that right now, we all have faith in Ragnarok.

"As an Iowa senator, I am very interested in federal subsidies for corn, or as the Indians call it, maize. In short, the Department of Education is a department of contrasts. Thank you."

Mmm, concentrated fermentation sludge.

Anyone who dislikes a DCU movie is a Marvel fanboy, and pointing out that a Marvel film is not as good as they think it is will this disprove any complaint they have about a DCU film. Witness how many times in these comments sections people defend the DCU by pointing out similar faults in Marvel films, as though those…

For the times gin won't work, there's white rum.

Seconding the recommendation for Hard-Boiled, which is actually story-driven. I'll also vouch for Kafka on the Shore, which I think is his best. It's a lot like Wond-Up Bird, but the characters are more compelling (troubled teen, eccentric old man, long-haul trucker) and its dreamlike elements feel like they're always…

Maybe the food is in all of his books because they're all the same damn book.

This is ridiculous and libelous, and I can't believe you'd make something like that up.

That's not an argument, though. That's just a fact about another superhero movie. The fact that Civil War didn't get Oscar nominations doesn't rebut criticism of Suicide Squad's writing.

I'm just waiting until we get the trailers for the Universal Monster Avengers, featuring a spooky, a capella female-vocal version of "Monster Mash."

Just to be clear here, your argument is that we should cut Suicide Squad a break, since its makeup was better than Civil War's special effects? And that getting an Oscar nomination for makeup and hairstyling is somehow a defense of criticism of a movie's characterization?

No, we deserve this.

This whole administration has been Richard Pryor's but about kids lying.

He's still a commercial and music video director at heart— like commercials, every scene is directed to be the best possible version of that scene and ratchet everything to the max. It's why his movies can feel so exhausting; there's no room to breathe, and everything feels important.

I think the extent to which the movie tried to give him no other choice is actually my problem with the scene. They wanted Superman to kill Zoe and wrote him into a corner to justify it, rather than it being a necessary part of the character or plot.
