"The Lighthouse"
I’m writing this a couple days after the episode aired, so most of the online conversation has covered anything I might say about the episode, however I do want to say two things: 1. I’m still running a little cold on this season. It hasn’t been bad, per se, but there hasn’t been an episode…

Archer
One of the most disappointing things that I’ve read recently is that Archer, FX’s new Adult Swim-esque show might get canceled. I’m not the world’s biggest fan of AS comedies in general, I sometimes don’t find the humor funny and I’m not a fan of deliberately awkward pacing, but I really think the Arrested Development…

The LOST season premiere is scheduled for February 2, which means that this is the beginning of LOST-crazy season for…

Billy Elliot
I was rewatching Billy Elliot last night. It’s one of my favorites. Michael’s call to Billy as he tries to catch him before Billy goes off to dancing school, “Oy! Dancin’ boy!” might be the most romatic line in the history of cinema. Which probably says more about me than the history of cinema. Also,…

Bad Lieutenant
I cannot possibly express how entertaining this interview is. It’s a Hollywood Reporter roundtable between Nicolas Cage, Stanley Tucci, Colin Firth, Morgan Freeman, Peter Sarsgard, and Christopher Waltz. Highlights include Nicolas Cage bitching about how direcors won’t leave him alone when he snorts baby powder to get himself into the zone to play a drug…
