I don't care if it's tasteless, I am so fucking excited about this particular guy's death. Congratulations, Obama! YOU FUCKING DID IT!!

YES. My mom wanted to see that and so I went along (other movies I have willingly sat through with my mother: Obsessed, Sex and the City 2, and The Tourist), as I have a little thing for Zefron, I'm not ashamed to admit. He's just so dreamy! But GOOD LORD was it terrible! Mind-bogglingly dumb. But the Zeffers was dreamy, and also James Franco's brother was in it, I think? So that was okay.
Yeah, I don't think that will ever happen. MTV's core audience would probably be more appreciative of, like, a Wiz Khalifa singalong. Just have the cast walk around Baltimore, belting out a rousing, emotional rendition of "Black and Yellow."
I'm going to have to agree with your friend Jed, Gabe. The original Skins is absolutely wonderful! Seriously, so good. It is very, very ridiculous, but it is also a lot of other things. There's Cassie! And Tony! And dramatic Cat Stevens singalongs after Tony gets mowed down by a bus! And the Mad Twatter (I'm assuming the Mad Twatter is not in this new MTV one? I could not bear the pain of watching more than three minutes so I GUESS I WILL NEVER KNOW)! But the main difference, you see, is that the UK Skins has a lot of heart, whereas this one is all "DRUGS DRUGS DRUGS I'M A TEENAGER I NEED MORE DRUGS RAWR" and no *heart*. So.

Seriously, if that's not a Golden Age Cartoon then I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.

And Flapjack! Flapjack is really good, too.
Oh, it's definitely the human interest part that makes this a big deal. It's a tremendous triumph of the human spirit and will to survive against tremendous odds on a scope that has never before been witnessed IN THE ENTIRE HISTORY of the Earth (in terms of mining, at least!)! It's quite incredible, and an epic story. Light beats darkness! Good (no one dies and happy reunions all around!) triumphs over evil (everyone could have died while being trapped in the CENTER OF THE EARTH!)! Plus, how often is it that basically the entire planet is riveted and united by a GOOD news story about HAPPY things? Never! Also, nothing this awesome ever happens here in Chile ("I live in Chile!" - me) so I just love this.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, CH-CHI-CHI! LE-LE-LE! LOS MINEROS DE CHILE!!!
Believe it or not, but ALL the hot dogs here in Chile have mayonnaise on them and everyone thinks it's super normal and delicious. You can even get a type of hot dog called an "Italiano," so named because it has ketchup, mayonnaise, and guacamole on it, which are the colors of the Italian flag.
So, when I read your comment I saw "hobo penises" instead of "hobo pennies," and that tossed me into a brief whirlwind of confusion. Just thought I'd share.
Hm, good point, it would definitely be great to look at some older movies BUT NO YOU DID NOT JUST NOMINATE HAIR!!! That is a great movie and no amount of you or Gabe telling me otherwise will change that FACT!
Actually, cool story. According to IMDB, it came out in 2004 but was delayed for two years because of how horrible it was, and then Jack Black publicly apologized for it THE SAME YEAR IT WAS RELEASED (I'm still waiting on your apology, Ben Stiller!). It's truly a horrendous movie of staggering proportions, so THANK YOU GABE for T14TT.
Obviously, anyone who wears that is just BEGGING to be kidnapped and jabbed with needles by some mysterious guy from the jungle. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO YOURSELF?!
Thanks! Hooray for Lost Heads! (Is that what we're called? It sounds awful! Or is it Losties? Or are they the original crash survivors, as opposed to the Tailies? It's so hard to keep up with these things!)
Don't worry, I laughed heartily at Hedwig's death, too. I mean, come on. A BIRD EXPLOSION! How is that not the funniest death scene in any book, ever?!
I haven't got a picture, but one time it recommended Tyson, the documentary about the vicious man-eating boxer, based on my interest in Pee Wee's Big Adventure and The Office, Season 2. True story!
I think the Videogum stance on Doctor Who is much the same as the stance on other quality British shows, which is "no, because they are British." What's up with that? I'm pretty sure most of us have BBC America and would love to watch, for example, Skins (it's so good!), and to read, for example, recaps of Skins. That would be great!
But yeah, David Tennant has been absolutely amazing as the Doctor and I will miss him like the blazes. :(
I liked it, but here's what bothered me: the Papyrus, THE FUCKING PAPYRUS! They spent 250 million dollars on making the blue people look good but couldn't spare a single dime for the font budget?!?!
Hey, I'm a (school season) DC monster, too! However, I will become a (winter break season) Arizona monster next week. Anyone else from ARIZONA??? I'm guessing no?
Am I the only one who had to look up "recherche"? Thanks for teaching me that delicious word, Gabe! I must try to use it casually in conversation some time this week.
Also, Fantastic Mr. Fox was great, YAY!
I beg to differ! Envy is harmful for anyone who likes funny comedies, comprehensible plot lines, talented comedic actors, Rachel Weisz, horses, movies without incessant close-ups of dog poo, good graphics, or flan. I am quite pleased that it is on the Hunt! My and that other guy Sontabile's efforts have paid off! Virtual high-five, Sontabile! WE DID IT!
ENVY ENVY ENVY! Please. IT MUST BE DONE! I can guarantee you that it is the worst "comedy" ever made with such a high caliber group of people (Ben Stiller! Rachel Weisz! Christopher Walken! Amy Poehler! And Jack Black, I guess!), and quite possibly the worst "comedy" EVER. I've noticed that lately there have been a lot of actually-not-so-bad movies in the Hunt, and this is distressing because it means TRUE CINEMATIC CRAP like Envy is not being covered. Please please please, do Envy!
Personally, I didn't think Closer was that bad. We really need to use the WMOAT feature for good, like for finding the absolute Worst Move of All Time, not the White Peoples' Problems Movie That Is At Worst A Bit Melodramatic. I mean, c'mon, we haven't even done ENVY yet! ENVY is a horrible, HORRIBLE movie! Far and away the worst "comedy" I've ever seen. Totally unfunny shitfest (it's about po-, okay you get it).
