There are some works of art that are beyond criticism. In most cases the work in question is a timeless classic, having either:
A) Been analyzed so many times that there are no words left unapplied to it.
B) Simply aged itself out of the discussion; sort of a statute of limitations for critics.
Other works are just so incredibly bereft of talent and purpose that trying to somehow apply a sense of logic to them is impossible. You can’t evaluate something when you’re not sure what value it even holds. The daily newspaper comic Six Chix is one of those works.
Welcome to Millennial Masterpieces, where I’ll look back at a great album released within the past 17 years and see what its legacy is. Tenth in the series is the sole offering from Ben Gibbard‘s indietronica side project The Postal Service, the preternaturally sad Give Up.
Welcome to the Weekly Fiver, where I’ll pick five recently released songs of varying degrees of quality and thoroughly break them down for you. No two songs will be on the same tier, and they’ll be listed from best to worst. The top song will be an excellent must-hear tune, while the bottom song will be one you ought to stay away from or else you will make your ears sad. It’s all very scientific.
Welcome to Millennial Masterpieces, where I’ll look back at a great album released within the past 17 years and see what its legacy is. Ninth in the series is the divisive and subtly brilliant breakthrough album from My Chemical Romance, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge.
Jeremy Renner is always looking down the barrel of a gun (or bow and arrow) at a distant target.
Here is little Jeremy Renner in 2004 in S.W.A.T., his first big movie, and already sniping.
Here is Jeremy Renner sniping at zombies in the city in 28 Days Later.
And now he is sniping at zombies in the woods in 28 Weeks Later.
Setting his sights on some non-zombies in The Hurt Locker. Man, Jeremy Renner and his love of gun barrels!
No, Jeremy Renner, you’re pointing the gun all wrong here! How are you gonna save the town like that??
Much better, Jeremy Renner!
Jeremy Renner likes arrows too, as long as they’ve got a scope. There’s like ten million Marvel movies with him doing this so I’ll just post the one, you get it.
Okay, we’re back to guns! Here Jeremy Renner is the Jason Bourne replacement and now he has a beard.
First it was zombies in the forest, now it’s witches in the forest. Jeremy Renner just doesn’t like spooky Halloween people wandering around the woods.
He had a lot of weird mystical guns in Hansel.
Now he’s sniping in a movie called Wind River. If you like Jeremy Renner sniping things, you’ll love this movie.
He didn’t get to snipe anything in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, so he said “I’m leaving!!” and did not return for the next chapter. Sorry, Jeremy Renner, you can’t always be sniping.
oh no he heard me now he’s going to snipe me !!!!!
