Look, it has Ming-Na Wen. So I’m going to watch it regardless.

Mace Windu might be even...Better Than Ezra.

I would have loved to see Ezra...but I would have peed my pants for Mace Windu.  

Tiya Sircar has expressed interest in the role. Here’s hoping. She’s a wonderful actor.

She sold poison milk to school children!

Long Way Round was awesome. Really just the idea of it is awesome for a geography nut, but the execution was pretty cool too.

leaning as hard as he can into the “meme”...and trying to make it economically viable

I remember greatly admiring Furlong’s hair as, topped only by River Phoenix’s in Last Crusade. I looked nothing like those two, so getting either haircut would have been equivalent to all those guys wearing copies of Ryan Gosling’s silk scorpion jacket from Drive.

This is similar to when Paul Ryan got pushed out as the drummer for Rage Against the Machine.

Yeah, stick to sports AV Club!

Many of the authors I read regularly now I found through io9 bookclub - Lauren Beukes, Kameron Hurley, Paolo Bacigalupi, Ann Leckie, Charles Yu, Max Barry, Emily St John Mandel, Erin Morgenstern, James SA Corey, Iain M Banks, Hannu Rajaniemi, Nick Harkaway, Genevieve Valentine, Robert Repino, and Matthew de…

More book recommendations. More book anything.
