Okay, now I may not think Grandland is great, but come on. You thought BILL SIMMONS was going to run the "New Yorker of sports"? Seriously? Bill "Is Roger Clemens the Anti-Christ" Simmons?

It probably doesn't have the requisite following, but I would love to see films based on the Abhorsen series. I loved those books when I was younger, it's just a shame that they would translate into incredibly dark, not-child-friendly films.
Dear Deadspin/Gawker:
Honestly, that's probably the least believable aspect of this scenario.
Either the worst or the best part is that, as a fellow DC resident, you know that we're first on the Goddamn chopping block if a nuclear war does come around. Bad for watching a nuclear war unfold? Undoubtedly. But chances of lingering? Zero!
[I]t should be noted here that getting rid of the draft and making all incoming rookies free agents is far more in the spirit of unbridled capitalism, though that apparently only matters if the beneficiaries of said system are white billionaire cocksuckers.
Ha, perfect! Explains the older crowd!
Unlike Batman, Spider Man, Iron Man, and other popular superhero movie franchises, there wasn't a cartoon based on Thor when I was a kid. That's really all you need to know.
AGREED. Never understood the appeal of Darmok, it was a slow-moving episode that made it tough to suspend my disbelief.
I just never understood why people liked Darmok so much. Never did anything for me, and DEFINITELY can't hold a candle to 'Measure of a Man.'
I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty sure dinosaur bones were all forged and buried by Carl Everett.
Jenn Sterger: "When you sign on as a sports journalist, you've got to be prepared for a little adversity. One has to question the professionalism of a journalist who allows a single athlete dong to become a distraction."
In his "Things You Never See" bit, George Carlin once said, "you never see someone taking a shit while running at full speed."
Indeed. No further, Serenity!
See, now that I agree with. And had that been the case it would have bombed out in the opening round where it belonged.
Phenomenal.
Haha, touche. I say it mostly tongue in cheek. But in all seriousness, I am amused at the very specific circumstances that have allowed Galaxy Quest to get even this far.
How is it that Galaxy Quest keeps powering onward, you ask? It has continuously been matched up with opponents that people A) are sick of (Avatar), B) haven't seen (Eternal Sunshine), or C) know is clearly the weaker of two Sweet Sixteen movies in the same franchise (Terminator).
Some seriously good matchups here. Star Wars/Incredibles and Wall-E/Terminator should see the end of the Pixar incursion, but outside of that I think it's tough to go wrong in these matchups, though I'd be shocked if Predator knocked off Encounters.
