I gave up on CA a couple years ago. I mean there is absolutely nothing of quality coming from that site, RedLetterMedia and others are completely blowing them out of the water. How they've maintained popularaily is beyond me.

Happy birthday

Happy Birthday!

Now for real.

The makers of the Mr. Plinkett Star Wars prequel reviews, (kind of) discuss the Holiday Special: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CtUd0yuYN4

Something I just realized: Carmine and Italia Coppola had 3 children: 1. Talia Coppola - She initially married film composer David Shire (The Conversation, Zodiac), before marrying Jack Schwartzman. They had a child, actor Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore, The Darjeeling Limited). 2. Francis Ford Coppola (The Godfather, Apocalypse Now) - He married Eleanor Coppola had three children, filmmaker Sofia Coppola (Lost In Translation), film writer: Roman Coppola (Moonrise Kingdom), and the late Gian-Carlo Coppola whose daughter Gia Coppola directed the recent James Franco film (Palo Alto.) 3. August Coppola - He married Joy Vogelsang and together they had several kids including Nicolas Coppola better known by his stage name: Nicolas Cage (well, ya know). Together their family has accumulated 23 Academy Award nominations, 9 wins. This may not be news to anyone, but I had no idea all these celebrities were all so closely related. Sofia Coppola, Nicolas Cage, and Jason Schwartzman are first cousins, that kinda blows my mind.

Never been a huge huge fan of either to be honest..

True Grit (2010), seriously, it's quite a bit better.

Serial. A nonfiction, serialized, murder-mystery, investigative podcast hosted by Sarah Koenig from This American Life. It's really addictive, it plays like a TV drama except it's 100% true. Really great stuff, check it out.

Stabilized Star Trek:

I'm calling it right now...

Lets see, what smarmy, cynical, self-aggrandizing remark can I make merely for the sake of disagreement. Fuck it, it was pretty good.

The way that John Williams theme came in . Everything else was just kinda meh.

Korra is coming back to TV. You can't honestly tell me Nick has any idea what they're doing at this point.

So, I don't think any of that was true... or at least not confirmed. But there will be a 90 second teaser released this Friday.

Nick cut the show's budget down to nearly nothing and now they're having to do shit like clip shows to make up for it.

Well we all know how David Lynch feels about small screens.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKiIroiCvZ0

Happy Birthday!

Based on Gotham's horrendous pilot episode, this parody is pretty spot on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92IBlRiFd6E

Any thoughts? I'm still mulling it all over.

Someone Googled "synonyms for rises," threw it in there so people would think they're original.

It's a fine title, there is absolutely nothing inherently wrong with it. I'm just a little disappointed that it doesn't have the "movie-serial" quality of the originals, sounds more like an EU book title. But four years from now, we'll all be throwing it around like all the others. It serves its purpose and has absolutely no impact on the overall quality of the movie.

Right, they're not "miniseries" in the traditional sense but that's how their classified now. At the Emmys, Fargo and AHS are in that category. I don't know what's going on with Agent Carter though, I haven't been following it.
