Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

D-do the lesbians plan a heist.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Well, there is a private eye in the movie. But it's not like the lesbians scheme together to pump Coach Taylor full of lead.

I suspect the advertisers don't wanna call it a "lush lesbian romance" because... of America.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

But it's not like the lesbians scheme together to pump Coach Taylor full of lead.

Note that I would totally also watch that movie.

Note to producers: "thriller" does not refer to straight guys being thrilled at the prospect of seeing two women kiss.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Went to see Hail, Caesar! over the weekend, which is super lightweight and meandering, but has some spot-on old Hollywood production numbers. Doesn't really hang together as a film though. Its parts are greater than its sum.

It did introduce me to this excellent young actor I'd never heard of called Alden Ehrenreich (playing a sweet and kinda dopey actor out of his elements), who really holds his own against his famous cast members. Also, Ralph Fiennes should just do nothing but comedy for the rest of his career.

I eyebrow HARD at the inclusion of Knocked Up and putting an Adam Sandler movie in lieu of The Philadelphia Story.

I would only accept its omission if the list maker specifically cited concerns about how all the men in Tracy's life aren't worthy of her, so it's actually a very witty tragedy about her settling.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I still maintain she should have run off with Mike.

But don't you think Ruth Hussey deserved Mike? For her awesomeness?

Ann, that's a ferret.

I disagree. Mike would have suffocated in Main Line society, and Tracy could not have adapted to Mike's workaday world. Mike belongs with Elizabeth. Tracy and Dexter work out okay, as long as Dexter dies a semi-heroic death in WWII and Tracy becomes the first woman in some previously all-male pursuit.
