Flipping around cable, I land on 1993's Carlito's Way and check in for a few scenes of a lurid, pulpy, and very Brian De Palma movie that's arguably like Scarface with an interior life. And as Al Pacino struts and chews his way through another role with another weird accent that ultimately leaves him sounding… » 2/20/15 2:49pm 2/20/15 2:49pm

Lloyd Grove, on the Daily Beast, in a sort of irony/empathy juggling act, wrote about Washington Post columnist, contributing editor for The Atlantic, New York Times bestselling author, and "CNN Presenter" Fareed Zakaria, host of Fareed Zakaria GPS on Sundays on CNN (check your local listings) and the trouble he's in… » 11/17/14 2:58pm 11/17/14 2:58pm

I'm not sure, but I think maybe the font is very close to "Los Angeles," one of the original Apple bitmap fonts? A lotta times thoughtful typography is based on inside jokes. The schlock-design aspect of this is using all caps with a script-y typeface. And the graduated color fill, urp. Now I'm gonna go… » 9/18/14 4:25pm 9/18/14 4:25pm

Don Pardo was an announcer at NBC for 60 years. He started in television so long ago it was on the radio, in 1944. The heaviest moment of his career was in 1963, when he was "booth announcer" on a shift at WNBC-TV in New York. Pardo did an off-camera "rip-and-read," from a big marked-up paper printout of an Associated… » 8/22/14 4:01pm 8/22/14 4:01pm

THE EXPENDABLES 3 is the third THE EXPENDABLES movie

JOE MACLEOD and 1 other

The animal spirit of The Expendables 3 is a giant fleshy machine gun made out of a bronzed, tumescent, veiny biceps and meaty forearm, and it's flying around, screaming, belching explosion-flames, smoking a cigar, and shooting out greasy bullets all over everything while it cracks jokes about Bruce Willis. » 8/15/14 10:23am 8/15/14 10:23am

Ah, I remember the days of the Office Microwave and the sad little LEAN CUISINE® boxes people had stacked up in the Office Fridge. I always used to wish there was an office Iron Skillet. If it's unflavored micropop it's not as bad as BUTTER BLAST™ or whatever, but yeah, people don't bother to monitor their charge and… » 7/16/14 2:43pm 7/16/14 2:43pm
