What’s interesting is that it’s a quote from an article he wrote in 2009, but it could just as easily be about the DC Relaunch. The more things change…

The Sequential Assassin's Best Movies of the '00s...
(2000; John Cusack, Iben Hjejle, Jack Black, Joan Cusack, Tim Robbins, Catherine Zeta-Jones; directed by Stephen Frears)
Of course, it’s only fitting that Adventureland’s spiritual forerunner should be placed just a notch above it. High Fidelity is tasked with walking a lot of tightropes: It stars an asshole, but he can’t be unlikable. The music references need to be specific...

I Wish My Body Wasn't Such a Piece of Shit
Not in the traditional Body Issues sense, but I wish that I could go to the gym without worrying about my back giving out(which has been a more or less constant worry since I was 13, in varying degrees of urgency), or throwing up all over the place because something I ate triggered my acid reflux(hasn’t happened yet, but it’s gotten really close a couple of times), or my blood sugar...

(2009; Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart, Martin Starr, Ryan Reynolds, Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig; directed by Greg Mottola)
Full disclosure time: There are a couple of reasons this movie made it so high on my list. First, the soundtrack is fucking incredible. The Rolling Stones, The Velvet Underground, Judas Priest, The Cure, The Replacements, Big Star, Nick Lowe…it’s kind of extraordinary how...

– A few posts by Y: The Last Man artist Pia Guerra edited together from this thread, in response to the kerfuffle caused by Dan Didio’s response to a fan who asked about including more female creators in the new lineup. I don’t know that I entirely agree with her but I think it’s an...

What makes Borat different from every other movie your friends have completely run into the ground is the fact that it’s really fucking funny, and it’s really fucking funny in ways that appeal to more or less everyone who would watch this thing to begin with. Probably the best example of...

An Interview with the Batgirl of the SDCC panels
dcwomenkickingass:
There were lots of stories that came out of SDCC this year, but the one that has caught the attention of the comics community was a woman who dressed up as Batgirl to ask questions about female characters and creators at several DC Comics’ panels. I first became aware of her questions while following the live feeds of Newsarama and CBR. If you read this blog you know I have...

To get the next Best Movies of the Decade post up by tomorrow.
It’s one I think pretty much everyone who follow my Tumblr will agree with, or at least be able to appreciate.

If opinions on The Limits of Control have any middle ground I have yet to find it. Depending on who you are and what you’re prepared for going in this movie is going to be either one of the most rewarding film-going experiences of your entire life or the cinematic equivalent of...
