And don't you love it when one celebrity says something on twitter and another turns it into a funny joke with a reply?!
Ansel, I’ve been sitting in this restaurant for 45 minutes already.

After The Jump sound advice from RuPaul, a funny joke about the Thor franchise, Jeff Goldblum statue, and much more in a curated sampling of good tweets for you that ends with a ton of thoughts on Eighth Grade because the movie is a modern miracle. Go see it!...

Ted
Directed by: Seth MacFarlane
Cast: Mark Wahlberg, Seth MacFarlane, Mila Kunis, Giovanni Ribisi, Joel McHale
Running Time: 1 hr 45 mins
Rating: R
Release Date: June 29, 2012
Plot: A 35-year-old Boston man (Wahlberg) must grow up or lose his girlfriend (Kunis), despite the bad influence of his bong-ripping talking teddy bear friend (MacFarlane).
Who’S It For?: This is for those who can stomach crass comedies, especially when they space out the dirty stuff (unlike Adam Sandler’s That’s My Boy). Ted touches upon new pop culture references, but has a special nostalgic spot for people who are Mark Wahlberg’s age, and older. If you thought That’s My Boy was a disappointment, you will probably love Ted.
Expectations: The pieces were promising. Mark Wahlberg proved to be purely funny in the Will Ferrell comedy The Other Guys, and the concept of “Family Guy” creator MacFarlane trying out live-action...

It was a dark and stormy night.
You know, hack writer that I am, I always wanted to start a piece with those infamous words: “It was a dark and stormy night.” And now I can. Spartacus: Vengeance: the gift that keeps on giving.
It was a dark and stormy night. Spartacus, leader of the rebellion, looks down upon the Roman siege forces—looks down literally, from on top of Vesuvius, and not because he thinks he’s better than them or anything (he’s not Martha Stewart, for goodness sake, though he can crochet up a storm if he needs to). Mira reports that the rebels are running out of supplies; they are short of firewood and food, and only have a two-day supply of Calvin Klein’s Obsession left as well. This last one makes Spartacus particularly glum—without water, all those gladiators have been relying on French showers—but Mira,...

Langford's Picks And Pans
Dangerous Relationships
I’m glad the show wrapped up the plot arc involving the journalist and the story he was going to write about Santiago. The whole thing never rang true to me. I just don’t buy that a so called respected reporter would take Max and Gonzalo’s word that they’d been threatened by a teacher, even with the recording. Surely it would occur to him that the tape could be doctored, which it had been.
Furthermore, Max and Gonzalo had been recently suspended because they tried to ruin Ana’s career with their lies, not to mention their overall history as a couple of shady characters. So how could anyone believe they’re telling this truth this time about another teacher? The reporter should have been much more suspicious about what was going on.
What evil deeds does Maximo have in mind for Alejandro?...

Just Another F-ing Observer - Jafo #12: When Did Eddie Murphy Stop Giving A Sh**? Watching Eddie Murphy in his latest picture Tower Heist I started to wonder just who was I looking at? Don't get me wrong, Murphy provides a great number of laughs in what is basically a poorly conceived comedy. Yet, even he doesn't have his heart in the picture, giving a performance that suggests the mega star is tired and worn out. I didn't go into this film expecting the Eddie Murphy of old; it has afterall been nearly thirty years since he burst onto the silver screen and essentially changed cinema with 48 Hrs. In 1982, Murphy was a young comedian fresh off of TV's Saturday Night Live whose infectious energy stole the thunder in what was intended to be a vehicle for Nick Nolte. Murphy was not only young, but he was hungry, a fresh face...

Summary: The powerful but arrogant warrior Thor is cast out of the fantastic realm of Asgard and sent to live amongst humans on Earth, where he soon becomes one of their finest defenders.
Run Time: 114 min

There are some comic book properties that should Never be adapted. Don’t think about it, don’t talk about it, and certainly don’t spend millions of dollars to actually do it. I love comic books, but there are certain properties that, when taken from the comic panel and put into another entertainment medium, get lost in translation. The parts that make the comic so cool get lost in the cheese sauce.
