Watching Movies Alone with crumbsroom

Considering they started making movies when they were teenagers and were likely working with minimal budgets the whole time, it is crazy how many they turned out.

Just like Fassbinder!


Even though I don't think Fassbinder was ever a teenager.

Quantity over quality, my friend.

Jeez, less than two weeks to submit the top foreign language film list. Anyone finished theirs? This is going to be brutal.....

I will concede that Rogan is the world's foremost authority on hosting Fear Factor. I'm less interested in his opinions about other topics.

He reminds me of that one friend you have that watched a documentary once and condescendingly drops facts from it into every future conversation whenever possible. So many times one of his guests will be mid-sentence only to be interrupted with Joe's "did you know the Mayans invented that?" or whatever. Followed by an unnecessarily long tangent about that thing he once read about the Mayans, as the guest politely waits to get back to his original point.

I don't hate the guy, but I also don't understand how his opinions came to be so important to so many people.

I'm sure I can catch up if somebody just plays some banjo chase music.

I just think it's funny that it turns out that the worst person from NewsRadio wasn't Andy Dick.

I do also think there is a lot to be said for how he made his success on his own terms and was never beholden to others on who he could talk to or what he could say. And there is some legitimate value in this distinction. But, unfortunately, to far too many this alone translates as 'truth'. I guess it hasn't dawned on them that people can still lie or be stupid on their own individual, uncompromised terms. The interference of corporate interests into our thought pool is hardly the only concern out there in discourse. There are endless ways for garbage thoughts and misleading arguments to be spewed and echoed back by every person out there only half listening.

How DARE you come after Khandi Alexander like that. She’s tv royalty!

You can put away the banjo.

I blame your invocation of banjo music for everything terrible that has happened.


And the media wants to pin blame on the under production of Mitch Marner. pffft. They know nothing.

My expert analysis is that they were doing well without anyone actually attending the games and started losing once there were people in the stands, so maybe they're just easily distracted.*


That being said, it is a sign of things slowly returning to normal that people got to see the Leafs lose in person.*


Sorry if I'm rubbing it in, I just really hate hockey fan culture in general and Leafs fan culture in particular, maybe because some of the most obnoxious people I knew growing up made it an integral part of their personality.*
