Gentlemen, I think you’re going to want to watch this.

Do they make them in Men’s sizes?
Gloria Jones, Tainted Love
Of course all good...
Huh.
iainwith2is:
How weird. House in Aus is lacking the proper theme music (Teardrop, by Massive Attack) and yet on DVD - the proper music is there.
First few seasons on TV had Teardrop. Music licensing is crazy.
Hey! Where's Avery's Motherfucking FACE?

“It’s complicated” is a statement I hate more than any other one.
It either precedes or follows complete and utter bullshit excuses and, more often than not, lies.
Ideas can be complicated.
IKEA instructions can be complicated.
The truth is rarely complicated.
True.
I’ve found that when people say ‘It’s complicated’, they mean that telling the truth...

That’s right. 3000 people in home quarantine for a disease (Swine Flu) that has so far in this country claimed no lives, and was last week laughed off someone who has contracted it as less serious than a paper cut.

Hey Morgon Spurlock! Your films suck. Here's how...
Make a film where you see how long you can survive only eating foods that are shaped like, or are imprinted with, logos.
McGriddle ✓
M&Ms ✓
Oreos ✓
Liquids would be a problem, but I would let you get away with drinking Coca-Cola BUT ONLY FROM A HOBBLE-SKIRT BOTTLE.
I hope americanmailorderbride is there to film it
sokeri:
when indefensible and jakec finally hate-fuck.
It’s a love-hate bromance for the ages. Soon to be made into a whacky Disney mind/body switcheroo film starring Hugh Laurie and a Jonas Brother.
I also find people who make straw man arguments...

I find people who correctly understand the concept of a straw man to be interesting.
Obscurity over enjoyment: An elaboration

I hate having to defend my tastes, and I know a lot of people feel the same way, just because they’re popular.
[SNIP]
Art-house? Boring. Silent films? Boring. The Godfather? Boring. These are my opinions. You may like them, I respect that. Unfortunately, at the moment, a lot of people are caught up in elitism and are incapable of responding with similar respect.

QUESTION
Who is in favour of me meeting up with JakeC and punching him in the dick?
I take exception to this presumption
jakec:
And I’m going to put my ear to your chest to see if your old man heart is still beating. I mean, Ross… Ride? Really?
CHALLENGE: Meredith Music Festival this year. Booze Drugs and Rock N Roll Binge.
Bring a stretcher and make sure your phone has enough credit left on it to call your mum to come and pick you up.
I take exception to this presumption

From the comments: “no matter who she is, it’s a great list. totally believable for a literate film buff.”
I despise people that say this. I consider myself a “literate film buff”. I’ve watched films from all eras of cinema (except maybe silent and probably some art-house genre bullshit). However, the ones I enjoy the most have, for the most part, come from the last twenty years of...

At the risk of being jumped on by people, I say...
During debates about equal rights for gays (or GLBT people or whatever acronym doesn’t offend people today), people who support equal rights employ a wide variety of arguments. They are generally common-sense arguments that are so self-evident that they would not be out of place in a philosophy of rights 101 class.
That’s not to say they’re wrong, just to say they’re...
