The "Good for Her" crowd is a trip man. Like, yeah, we can see how Pearl's life ended up. It's called "X" and she is not living the dream man.

I know Cinema Sins has damaged media literacy in a major way but these movies just dare you to pick them apart. MAKE YOUR HOME BASE BY THE WATERFALL!!

Still very much in favor of the basic premise of it though...

Shocked they held off on the Tracy Bonham drop as long as they did. What a song.

Thank you new Sherri Papini doc. "Smegma was Relentless" is now guaranteed to be a deathbed reverie.

Great piece! Yeah, the trailers from 2016 for Election Year were not shy about it. The movie had to have been filmed too early...but the way the trailers kept hammering the phrase "The Senator" over and over really felt like they were siezing a moment.

Someone at the other place suggested doing a festival or series of double features of films like this. (Passion project filmed with stars on their downtime between calls on major blockbuster.) Breakfast of Champions/Armageddon is a great one.

In that scenario, there won't be a sitting VP unless the House approves right?

Honestly, the phrase "penised lesbian" seems strangely progressive coming from her.

I think The Deuce had something close, and the mayor in The Wire as well...but this was, like, whoa man!

So...not to be a prude or nothing...but is the full-on fellatio (fake dong obv.) kind of a big step for teevee?

The Supreme Court has ruled that you can show full-on fellatio on HBO now.

It's a pretty good show. Not great. And it's hard to put my finger on why.

You can tell a lot about a person based on which musical introduced them to Emma Goldman. (For me it's Assassins.)

Yeah it just gives Farhan the right to claim "contender" status. Prolonging his run at the helm and delaying a real rebuild.

This hits hard. And it's getting worse as theatre is dying. The people who make it are closing ranks and imo more distrustful of anyone who hasn't fully drunk the Kool-Aid. I don't want to talk about what shows are gonna be in the next season and who is gonna get which part all the damn time!

In the late 90s he was the guest on Loveline and my call made it thru and we talked about my penis. He had no particular insight then, either.

The "dudes rock" meme is a genuinely blessed addition to gender discourse. We've managed to make our positive model of masculinity something brand new. Overenthusiastic, enterprising, goofy, joyful, carefree, boisterous, camaraderie, all the qualities that we got scolded for in school.

The YouTube ads are so funny. Trying so hard to hype up a toaster oven.

So easy to forget what a horse Gore was. Fought through some awful injuries and was on some awful teams.

A Serious Man is the best Coen Bros movie. This is my favorite movie of all time.
