Surely it was an oversight to not mention the Oscar Inspired Movie Menus as pairings for these cocktails from Epicurious.
May I suggest "A Jewish Family Dinner Circa 1967" as inspired by "A Serious Man". I don't know about you, but any dinner followed by "circa 1967" sounds like GOOD TIMES!!!!
Not for nuthin', but I was a little bitter that we had an hour long Office which left no room for new "30 Rock".
Also, "The Marriage Ref" can be a half hour. Really. Boooooooo, NBC.

I'm sorry, but the "Nic Cage hair is a bird" is the best Cage meme going. Cause, true.

I noticed last night that the "candidates" alternate lives are dramatically different, but the non-candidates alternate lives are pretty much the same (if they crashed on the island or not).
Example: Kate, a non-candidate, is still a fugitive on the run in the alternate LA, same for Claire, still a timid pregnant girl planning on giving Aaron up for adoption. Of the candidates alt-lives shown so far, Sayid's love is married to his brother, Hurley is the luckiest man in the world, Jack is the father of a teenage son, Locke is still with Helen, etc.
That said, can we please learn something new? I dunno bout the rest of you, but I've been pining for the Richard Alpert back story episode....also, notice that he hasn't appeared in the alternate time line at all....
This is THE BEST. Actually, this is the top of my "THE BEST" list currently. So there. And I highly recommend this article written by Ebert if you haven't read it already...(you're already crying so just go ahead and read it now, ha).

Thank you Mr. Ebert, for reminding me that I often take the little things SO for granted.
I am thrilled my tip made it to post, because this dance party made my day today.
Everything about this video is pure awesome. Pegged jeans! Wedge haircut! Hammer pants! Teased side ponytail! Blazers over sweaters! Graffiti airbrushed overalls! Lipsynching to SNAP!
1991 + STORM, FTW!
I am a Kevin Smith fan, and he definitely needs to shut it. Also, I can't help but chuckle at this, from Film Drunk:
"That?s right, after his hundreds of tweets on Too-Fat-To-Fly-Gate and an entire podcast, he still needed twenty four GD YouTube videos. I didn?t watch any after the first, but unless he fights a giant spider in third act, I?d consider them a colossal waste of time. And that?s coming from the guy who spent the last 30 minutes making this:"
I'm pretty sure the side/alternate/what if time line that is being shown now is to (possibly) serve the notion that crashing on the island, saved their lives. In essence, they have better lives because of the plane crashing, and they are alive because they are on the island. I am almost willing to say that we are going to see some of the characters die in the alternate time line because of this (i.e. Rose, for starters).
Thank you, NC!!! I am hoping to have the best baby monster ever. After all, they will takeovergum when we're all rocking in our chairs and gumming our Werther's....right?
Ditto this comment. I am currently 8 months pregnant and my unborn daughter is busy building a fort inside my uterus, I suspect. Tons of movement, distinctly not the food I just ate. There is no way I wouldn't know I was pregnant. Just none. If the show was called, "I Think I Swallowed a Cat", it would be more believable. Truly.
Because this trailer bored me, I'm gonna go Offtopicgum. Did you know that Ricky Gervais was in an 80's band? Called "Seona Dancing"? How about a 80's dance band movie spoof, Mr. Gervais? Cause that would be the besssssssssssst arrrrrrouuuund.....
"...and ignoring all the pricks standing around him like he's gliding through the fucking Matrix."
I could not love that sentence more. ALSO, Dowdy Kitchen Man FTW:
And still, no headlines that read, "James Cameron Donates $_ Million to Haiti Relief Effort".
$1.292 billion dollars so far. BILLION.
Good job beating your own record? Asshat.
