I thought the middle act was fine, but I agree it was the bookends that really dampened my feeling of the film. The fairy tale construction of his character, the fairy tale conclusion, they just didn't do anything for me.

The problem, growing up in a military tribe myself but not electing to serve, is that it amounts to just more larding up of a bad idol. Chris Kyle wasn't killing in the name of our freedoms, he was killing because he loved killing people and people cheered him for it. Many of the conservative military folk I know,…
I've only read the first volume of Sex Criminals so far, but it is fantastic. What blows me away is just how realistic the exploration is and how genuine their relationship feels. That and it is genuinely fucking funny. Holy shit.
Southland Tales was a really small production, though.
Was this before or after the massive long BBQ scene that opens the film, because I remember the first, like, 15-20 minutes of this movie being purely expository. This film is one of the most bizarre and gruesome things I have ever seen.
I watched it a little over a decade ago and, no.
Lost in Space was fantastic until they crash-landed on that weird planet, then Akiva Goldsman said "fuck it, I don't know what to do anymore!"
Watch Dogs had an incredible soundtrack, it just scored some of the worst story ever produced for a video game.
"Homer? Who is Homer? My name is Guy Incognito!"
Funny thing is that episode aired the year before they won their first Super Bowl… and then their second the year after.
Explain!
Every. Time.
Yeah, sure.
Sniper's a long shot (pun intended?!). My money's on Boyhood.
_I_ do.
Interstellar was a good movie, not a great one and certainly not worth anything more than any technical awards it got nom'ed for.
Yeah, but those were pretty minimal cutaways. The live-action component is substantial in Lego Movie.
If Everything is Awesome doesn't win Best Original Song, they'll never overcome snubbing the film for Best Animated Feature.
Fuck yeah, LEGO!
Moby's "Play". Still my favorite disc of his.
