Not a big issue in the grand scheme of things but I do find myself getting perturbed by the pairing of ranch with pickle-heavy menu items. My Midwestern self-loathing has its own flavor pallet, thanks.

Key part of being part of an online movie street team right now is posting shit like “but have you seen the 100 unbelievably unfunny skits that the director has also made?”

This is most common when someone describes a piece of media as “ontologically evil,” generally they mean they didn’t like it.

Big trend: confidently using “ontologically” after reading someone else use it incorrectly online.

It’s kind of stunning how timeless and franchise reverent the rest of it is because whenever they break for poker, cameos like Richard Branson getting a full body shot, or product placement like Bond’s Sony Ericsson, you’re just right back in 2006.

Whenever I think about rewatching all of the Bonds, there are so many Roger Moores I just dread and they are not covered by the ones of his that Are Not Good But Are Great

All of the technical Texas Hold’em details in “Casino Royale” are carbon dated and so funny. They explain blinds twice, Eva Green is forced to grimace at a rough river, just brutal stuff. Imagine if Roger Moore had Pac Man Fever in “For Your Eyes Only.”

Primetime: Pattinson’s choices are entrancing but the magic’s all in quieter moments. Nightvision goggles over a wall of dog photos. The switch to a bullet proof vest. Wish it was cold enough to cut the last 3 minutes. 4 stars.

Modern Family denouements are always some shit like “I can’t believe I unexpectedly had to give away $10,000!” while a half dozen children deliver reaction shots. Loathsome show.

I’m not a good person to judge productive and personally enriching gaming habits by but signing up for a 100+ hour Witcher 3 replay is deeply baffling to me. Do you just have endless time on this earth? That game doesn’t even have Estelle Bright in it.

You can really see how influential Girls has been too on the recent crop of hang out sitcoms and domestic mini-series. I never could get over how little Fleabag feels like a sure-of-itself show. You’re always catching adaptational choices that start to feel load bearing by the end.

The British Creative Class System is one of the strongest fighting forces in the world today. Can’t be stopped by anything. Even that fucking Mr. And Mrs. Smith reboot.

I don’t even think it’s awful or anything, just stagey and gimmicky in ways it never wants to really shake. The kind of thing you’re embarrassed to really praise when someone else picks up the pieces and makes something better. Imagine someone saying their favorite Oscar winner was Doubt.

Still wild to see Fleabag push its way up critical lists. If you make more than $150K a year, they must let you watch a different show or something.

Somehow, impossibly, the incredible Joshua Cassara has died. Truly one of our modern greats, but also an incredibly kind and gracious soul. My heart goes out to his family and friends.

This is Martha Cassara, Josh’s wife. I’m saddened to share the impossible news that Josh died on September 22nd of heart complications. You might know him for his celebrated work in comics, but he was also a good man, a wonderful father and husband, my best friend, and the love of my life. I’ll share more in the future, but for now that’s about all I can manage. If you knew Josh, you know that he approached the world with humor, sweetness, and kindness. He would not have wanted your condolences. He would have wanted your laughter and toasts. I would love it if you shared something below. Not your sadness, please, but any sort of happiness he brought you through his art, his friendship, or even a brief encounter.

May he feel all the love he gave us all. He was one of a kind ❤️
