Mad Men has Don Draper haunted by the ghost of Bert Cooper, but aren't we all in our way haunted by toxic libertarians with a taste for Japanese tentacle porn?
As a Gen-X’er, I’m not really liking that Gen-X’ers are starting to do the “We are the generation you don’t mess with” social media shtick that Boomers were doing 10 years ago.
There is a lot of be critical of Tom Cruise but I do appreciate that when he was offered the role of Les Grossman, which could have been the biggest antisemitic caricature ever lensed, he said he wanted big hands and to hip hop dance, neither of which are antisemitic stereotypes.
TikTok-style sites keep trying to make me watch new comedians, and I would be amendable, but every single one seems like their comedy styling is "Hey, I am an extremely mean person."
I was glad to see William Atherton have a cameo in the new Ghostbusters film because I think he's a genuinely terrific actor who has been typecast because he's great at playing a-holes (the Paul Gleason curse). But if we're going to do fanservice cameos, bring back Peter MacNicol too.
Thinking about it, Popeye was a film filled with celebrities that I genuinely loved. I try to be cautious about my feelings about strangers because I do not know them, but Robin Williams, Shelley Duvall, Ray Walston, Harry Nilsson, Paul Dooley, Altman? I loved their work. So much.
All gone now.
RIP Shelley Duvall, an absolute delight, unfathomable to Hollywood, but exactly the sort of expected spice that made 70s cinema so memorable. I loved her and am sad to hear of her death.
I suspect rich people want to terraform Mars because they want a place to live when Earth becomes uninhabitable, but I feel like it's probably easier to terraform Earth back into someplace habitable
so weird to see people talking about The Bear saying “isn’t it WILD to discover Olivia Colman can do television comedy??” like, how deeply sad for you that you’ve never watched Numberwang, a real tv game show that actually exists in reality
Every time this stupid ass meme shows up, I always feel like it's done by someone who's never read Older Literature and their take on Martin comes from hearing people in another room talk about the TV show
I had thought the fact that Beetle Bailey and Lois from Hi and Lois are siblings was astonishing but today I found out Mary Lucia and Paul Westerberg are siblings.
I made some significant changes to my eating habits and I think it is causing me to lose weight, but it is so hard to tell because the scale will read the same amount for two months but your pants will slide off when you stand up.
I'm wondering how many times Marvel filmmakers have had to opt out of a shot of Earth from space because they haven't decided whether or not to eject The Eternals from the canon yet.
Sometimes it feels like women of my mother's generation were only able to pick from a limited selection of narcissists, and were lucky if they wound up with one who wasn't a total wrecking ball.
The story is that Kubrick couldn't get George C. Scott to do anything but his patented glowering serious performance, and so before every shot he would say, well, let's do one silly one to get it out of the way, and then used all the silly ones.
