the academy's appeal to watch movies in theaters
I go to the theater if the film is important to me, so I don't have to hear my family's non-stop talk. Subtitles are mandatory in our living room. My tube tv still works.

Criticize your favorite movies
The Death Star officer says "Commence primary ignition" meaning there is an ignition sequence. But it fires like 2 seconds later, meaning there was one sole ignition not to be called primary.

Biggest Academy award fuck ups
I was thinking that Landau should have won it for Rounders playing Damon's law professor/confidant. But Ed Norton had the superior role. They need a 3rd award for best bit part character actor.

TV Characters You Hate From Shows You Like
The Chief's wife in Murdoch Mysteries. She should be the face of the Victorian establishment in the midst of all of the suspiciously woke main characters. But someone decided she was a good actress and should be helping to solve crimes.

Greatest TV Theme Songs
BSG's theme song is just a drum corp. The songs in the epsiodes like Kara Remebers and All Along the Watchtower were the best use of music.

Great Western Movies
The True Grit remake is a nice way to spend 2 hours. The original is a classic where every other line is its own meme. Sometimes True Grit is left off of the list of top of the Duke westerns. I think people forget about it because Wayne actually acted as a character other then himself.

What in the total fucking shit did I just watch?
I saw ten minutes and it warrants a back later and see all of it. Same week I saw Eraserhead with no pre-knowledge other than the name of the director. I haven't had my head on straight since.
