It’s strange when a Twitter phenomenon like Shit My Dad Says, which was started by a guy in his late 20s writing down the filthy and irreverent things his 74 year-old dad says, garners a sitcom, especially on a network. It’s stranger still that that network is CBS, known for the most banal and safe [...]

Featured quote (not written by me)
On the 1987 Burt Reynolds exploitation thriller Malone.
"Burt Reynolds is an ex-_____(moustachioed-noun) running from his past who finds just how difficult it is to retire when he runs across a small _____(place/and/or/female) controlled by _____(pony-tailed/and/or/albinoed-noun) and a family that's resisting their _____(whatever).
I love Burt Reynolds Madlibs."

Valhalla Rising
Thursday, July 22nd, 2010
It would make sense that creating a brutal, no-brainer medieval movie, with tons of clanking swords, stabbings, bludgeoning, grunting, and minimal dialogue would be simple and not require either a big budget or a level of acting above say, the Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicle Cyborg. You’d be wrong of course; otherwise there would be much [...]

A podcast with Nash Edgerton, director of The Square
Australian stuntman Nash Edgerton made his first feature, The Square, back in 2008, but it was just released in the US.

On Watchmen:
At the funeral of the conflicted, narcissistic, and mean-spirited superhero The Comedian, each of what appears to be ten different people get their own extremely detailed flashback to their interactions with their fallen friend. As the camera slowly moves past each character that had their screen time, eventually stopping at whom I thought was the priest, who then gets five minutes to look to his past, I kept waiting for the dirt and the coffin to get their fill in too.
