Bingo. Former players FOUR DIFFERENT CHARACTERS in Penny Dreadful, one of whom is an intentionally mousey and frumpy Machiavellian type. Which pics are we looking at? So you don’t know the line from Robert Browning’s poem, “The last of life, for which the first was made.” And you do not share Asian culture’s reverence and respect for age and accumulated experience and wisdom. You unfamiliar with Mark Twain’s jape, “When I was 20, I couldn’t believe how stupid my father was. By the time I was 30, I was very impressed with how much the Old Man has learned.” And you’ve never slept with a mature woman who actually knows how to rock your world, I guess. I envy you. You have so much to anticipate in your future. There are declarative sentences and interrogative sentences. You picked the wrong one. On the other hand, The Rat Pack were, collectively, exponentially more talented than Clooney’s sad crew. Sammy Davis Jr ALONE took care of that. Clooney WISHED he could be Old Blue Eyes. I don’t buy your post. Were you even a sperm in the 60s? What is SO COOL about the original is that The Pack ONLY made it to get paid to drink and have sex in Vegas. That’s all! Francis Albert admitted that. It was a PAID VACATION for some of the most talented men on earth. It was a voyeurs fantasy movie tour of The Rat Pack in Vegas; kinda like porn before there was NC17. Jesse Eisenberg cannot play very intelligent characters. Neither can Jennifer Lawrence. End of the franchise. So, you never saw The Prisoner, or The Twilight Zone, or The Sopranos, or Banshee. Yes: Bill Murray in Charlie’s Angels. The movie ROCKS. Plus Mindy Robinson. They obviously had fun making this, and the fun is contagious. Is it low-brow, low-class, scatological? Hell, yeah! Is it 5 times funnier than the limp, pandering “humor” created by 95 percent of the posters on MC, who generate “wit” suited for Reader’s Digest and Boy’s Life magazines? Hell, yeah! Stan Lee was neither as clever nor as smart as many like to believe. He was a master of the obvious. She boarded an overloaded aircraft and it crashed. Natural selection triumphed. She did not add to the gene pool. I think anyone performing cunnilingus can be called a cuntface as a fact, at least for as long as s/he is eating at the Y. Ya can’t change a Y chromosome into an X chromosome. It’s more “found footage” bullshit. I HATE the fucking Blair Witch influence that’s made so many movies unwatchable. It’s June, genius. Get a new crystal ball. Wrong. Musicologists cite the 40s as the best decade for popular music, with the 60s coming in second. Composers knew what an actual melody was back then. Yes, they gave Cosworth money and “encouraged” them. Nothing in your post says a thing about Ford contributing to the engineering of the V-8. Ford gave money and led cheers. And put their name on the result. He was great in everything he did! Pretty glaring error from a show that’s so manifestly smug about its “smart” dialogue. Hell, the writers don’t need researchers. They know everything! Completely agree. Will never watch this train wreck a second time. I’ve only contempt for it.
