We’ve expanded the definition of AVQ&A—our weekly thought-starter—by asking you (and us) a simple question each week: What pop culture did you consume this weekend, and what did you think of it? If you have suggestions for AVQ&A questions, big or small, you can email them to us here.
The merits of the label “so bad, it’s good” are debatable—if you truly enjoy something, how can it be “bad?”—but, semantics aside, if you’re a fan of the movies featured on The Flop House, the filmography of Neil Breen, or the 800-pound gorilla of the outsider film world, The Room, then Get Even should be on your…
Harry Dreyfuss—an actor and writer, and the son of Oscar-winner Richard Dreyfuss—has added his name to the ever-growing list of young men accusing Kevin Spacey of groping or sexually assaulting them in their youths. Dreyfuss wrote about the incident, which took place when he was 18 and visiting his father while he…

Yet more allegations against actor Kevin Spacey have come to light this week, with three more men coming forward with stories that Spacey groped them, called them a “coward” for refusing to have sex with him, and, in one case, served alcohol and displayed pornography to a 16-year-old visitor to his home.
