Cris Collinsworth strikes me as the kind of guy who is wondering what is keeping those three exterminators that he hired. . .
Honestly, I prefer to think of today as the shared birthday of my favorite director, my second-favorite Dead drummer, the co-star of the only good film of Dune and the sole redeeming aspect of one of the worst films ever. . .
Look, calling JD Pants a gas-powered leaf blower may not give you the quick, visceral thrill of calling him ableist slurs, but it immediately cuts to some of the many things I find objectionable about him: he’s a destructive windbag nobody likes and yet we’re constantly subjected to him
Step one: identify what it is you’re really trying to get at. “Low IQ” is eugenicist. Bad decision-making? Immorality? Willful ignorance? Target those. Step two: go for a high concept metaphor. The more seemingly unrelated, the better Step three: add a superlative or an adverb for extra punch

youtube.com/watch?v=Jf18... Tribute Time. R.I.P. Well that sucks. Since I suspect many will be leaning on RHPS and Clue in their tributes, I figured I’d go in a slightly different direction with a lesser-known but pretty entertaining film.
