I don't care I still love FJM.

This was a really offensive episode. I EXCLUSIVELY drink skim milk.

I love that they still watch The Challenge.

I have the Android app and it's fine. What are the big complaints?

I would really like a Howl series with Lauren, Scott, and Paul doing whatever the hell they want.

I just want to say awesome opening music.

I don't think Punch Drunk Love is PTA's best movie but I think the score is one of the most brilliant of all time.

I'm voting No because while I really like Seven it probably isn't even in my top 3 Fincher movies. But what I really want to say is that I am really sick of hearing people mispronounce "Cannes" because they are trying to sound more french. It is actually pronounced pretty much just "can", like you would say with a normal North American accent. When Devin and Amy say it in those obnoxious accents they are much closer to pronouncing the French village of "Caen" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caen)

While Devin might have started getting a little juvenile in his rebuttal of Amy's arguments, I think he is entirely in the right on this one. I don't think it is valid to criticize a movie because it is not telling the story you want it to tell, you have to engage with the story it is telling. Amy is right in that this film is much more narrow in scope than his earlier films but that is not inherently a bad thing. I would love to see a movie about the sorority girls who call the guys fags when they get catcalled but that's not the movie Linklater is making.

I vote yes. A move that can (consciously) evoke such varied reactions probably deserves a place in the canon. I do agree with Amy that if we are talking about Lars von Trier there are other films that I would think of first when picking movies for the spot. I would actually love a versus with Dogville and Manderlay, not that I think Manderlay has a chance of winning but it is still way, way under-rated and is really interesting to talk about, especially in the context of those two films as a duology (and aborted trilogy?).

I'm Canadian and I've never heard of French-Canadians being called Pepsis, although it is true that it is more popular than Coke over there.

I really hope this hasn't been posted yet: Really bad Christian standup comedian, or at least it's comedy up until 1:53 where it takes a HARD right turn. Check out his wiki for more fun: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Warnke

Oh and another update: The lake in this movie is NOT called Lake Placid. Bridget Fonda comments on how still the water is and Brendan Gleeson says "well they wanted to call it Lake Placid but the name was already taken". So the actual Lake Placid in New York does exist in the world of this movie and also the lake is never actually named.

I just want to say: it was brought up that Brendan Gleeson says the line "Everyone's a comedian sarcastic" which definitely seems like he was speaking a stage direction. But the weird thing is that in the very next scene he does it again! Bill Pullman says that it was probably a beaver that bit the diver in half and Brendan Gleeson says "Oh, a whole sentence sarcastic". So either there were some serious problems with the script transcription or Brendan Gleeson had such disdain for the movie that he tried to see what he could get way with without being called out (which I like to believe).

This reminds me: Paul needs to bring back the same guests to do an episode on the second Renny Harlin-LL Cool J team up, Mindhunters.
