I mean, I’m here for more stuff from the Every Frame a Painting team. Those videos were always a blast and got me to look at movies in a different way.
A+ Matt! Finally an AV author who cares enough to go back and fix mistakes. Read more
Some day, maybe long after he’s gone, people will finally spell “Rogen” correctly.
At least with Ei8ht they already killed off Kevin Spacey’s character, so they don’t have to worry about that
At least this means your job’s secure.
He is not what you would call a handsome man. The good Lord chose not to bless him with... with charm, athletic ability... or a fully functional brain. You see, he’s an inspiration, to all of us who... who weren’t born handsome, and… Read more

Once in a life time is seeing the Aztec pyramids in person. Watching elephants graze on the plains of Africa. Walking the Great Wall. Watching the Northern Lights. Feeling the winds of the coldest place on earth. Sweating in the Amazon. Not...staying in a heavily branded version of one of those fantasy motel suites.
I don’t understand why people hate The Architect’s speech so much. It’s one of the more intriguing bits from the sequels. I guess it’s because no one gets kicked or punched or short for a good 5 minutes.
