Virgins and Lesbians - A Serious Discussion Virgins and Lesbians - A Serious Discussion
Having been sick for most of the past week, I engaged in a lot of mini movie-marathons with no real logic or structure. It was pretty much me watching whatever movie I picked off of my shelf that I hadn’t seen in a while. And inadvertently, I watched 40 Year Old Virgin and Chasing Amy back to...

When I first heard about He’s Just Not That Into You, the romantic comedy based on an advice book that is the dumbed down equivalent of a fierce slap in the face of reality, I was under the impression that it would be a heinous mess of a movie, full of unlikable characters who act in unrealistic...

Cross posted here. My first experience with Kevin Smith was when I tricked my mother into letting me rent the VHS copy of Clerks that our local Blockbuster had.

About the same level of fast but perhaps not as furious About the same level of fast but perhaps not as furious
Dear Fast and Furious, What the hell are you? Who is the marketing wizard that came up with your name? Are you really going to take “The Fast and the Furious” and just drop the “the”s in the latest installment? Why do you even exist? Look, “The Fast and the Furious”...
