A man at a bar in Murrieta, California ribbed an off-duty cop that he ‘suck[ed] at darts,’ the cop, 42-year-old Dayle Long, reportedly responded by pulling out a gun and executing him in front of a shocked crowd in an incident one man described as ‘the most horrific scene I’ve...

Looks like this essay was needed, so I went ahead and did it. Not sure I said everything I wanted to say, but I tried.
So, there’s this girl. She’s tragically orphaned and richer than anyone on the planet. Every guy she meets falls in love with her, but in between torrid romances she rejects them all because she dedicated to what is Pure and Good. She has...

friendlytroll asked: High five for the 'allowed to see Princess Mononoke way too goddamned young' club.
buyavowel asked: Yeah, that's usually the best policy; I'd read the book years before so I got super hyped for the movie, haha. My reaction was mostly "WHY is Howl transforming into a giant bird WHY IS THIS NECESSARY." Both book & movie had clumsy wrap ups to me; Jones had a tendency of waiting to reveal every single transformation/illusion until the very end, and the scarecrow's...
crossxhunter asked: What was the first Ghibli movie you saw and at what age? My first was Kiki's Delivery Service, which remains my favourite one, at about 6 or 7.
Anonymous asked: Have you read The Borrowers? How do you think Arrietty stacks up as an adaptation?
buyavowel asked: I've read the book, which was partly why I felt kinda let down by the movie. It was definitely more of a Ghibli film than a movie version of HMC to me (if that makes sense) and it had its strong and weak points as a result of that. I really disliked most of the dub though - why did Sophie's voice go between kinda British and American the entire time, or was that just me? But yes, the...
crossxhunter asked: Having never read the book it is based on, I enjoyed Howl's Moving Castle. Some of your complaints with the dubs have no basis if you don't know of the book. Have you seen the trailer for The Secret World of Arrierty, and if so, what do you think?
buyavowel asked: I'm curious; what did you like about the Howl's Moving Castle movie? You've mentioned it being one of your favorite Ghibli movies.
crossxhunter asked: Do you plan on seeing the new Sherlock Holmes movie?
