The term "goblin" is just a slang for Orcs that live under/in the Misty Mountains. Tolkien's explanation for the different terminology was that Bilbo wrote The Hobbit and he didn't know any better.

That guy cosplaying as Hulk looks more like Lorne without horns. Also, Bangalore Two-Face reminds me of Richard Harrow from Boardwalk Empire.

The decision to make a distinction between orcs and goblins is a little annoying.

How did characters from a Coen brothers film end up in a cartoon for children? I thought it was a movie for adults.

Goblins (orcs) are typically between hobbit and human sized, depending on the variety. Trolls are gigantic. They're not really the same size at all.

My gamertag is the same as the username I'm using right now to comment, but with a space instead of an underscore. My name is Steve, and my production company is Kinda Like Reality (KLR).

I'd watch that.

Not gonna lie, these creepy little fuckers are an instant addition to the D&D campaign I'm running.

It is both a blessing and a curse. I remember getting weird looks from people in high school whenever it was brought up.

Gamecube had Eternal Darkness. Not a launch title, but I never would have traded it for anything on the PS2. I'm not sure the lack of shoulder buttons helped the Dreamcast, but having them may not have saved it either. What does it say about me that the only consoles I had that generation were a Gamecube and a…

Not really. There's sort of a basic model, but each one handles certain aspects of gameplay in different ways.

Just watched that tree episode of Angel. Good times.

No one's making them fight *yet*. I'm sure the first few Etruscan gladiatorial matches were totally consensual, but we all know how things turned out eventually. It's only a matter of time before the Woodburians (Woodburites?) start leaving the teeth in and forcing people to fight to the death for entertainment. All…

No one should ignore the significance of that David Bowie album. Aside from William Bell, the series' two major recurring villains were David Robert Jones, and Thomas Jerome Newton — Bowie's real name, and the character he played in The Man Who Fell to Earth. The Man Who Sold the World is probably a literal reference…

Funny you should mention that. I discovered last night that MST3K is no longer available on Netflix streaming. Well, aside from the movie.

He might not even really care about Sam and Dean. I think he knows that the angels will just drop them back on Earth if they're ever killed, so it's sort of a pointless exercise. I guess I would have preferred if they'd taken Crowley in a different direction. Giving him a sort of Spike-esque harmless malevolence seems…

In case anyone is wondering: Naomi, from the Hebrew name Na'omiy, meaning "pleasantness". In the Old Testament this is the name of the mother-in-law of Ruth. After the death of her husband, Naomi took the name Mara. Mara means "bitter". May be meaningless, but I like to think the writers would have picked a name with…

Naomi probably has Chuck squirreled away on some other plane of existence, being forced to write those awful Sam/Amelia flashbacks.

I imagine only certain individuals get picked out to be tortured into demonhood, even during the previous regime. Plus Crowley may have put demon production on hold. Not as if there seems to be any shortage, and more demons just means more upstarts trying to dethrone him.

Someone needs to invest in dual holsters and double barreled pistols. Check out the special items in the crafting menu.
