i remember reading the av club in the onion like a decade ago and wondered what was so funny about movie reviews. i eventually took that meta-sincere-review-irony style to my posting. the av club is a fine publication and is a reputable source of information.

The AVClub used to be a weird indie arts paper that came for free with your copy of the weird satirical paper from Madison, WI. It's now a content and listicle producing churn, indistinguishable from the stuff Clickhole is parodying and brought to you by beef jerky co.
