This is a composite photo, right? Not to put it down or anything because it is a stunning photo, but I'm highly skeptical that this was taken with one shot. I don't see anyone claiming that it is, or is not, but I would assume so.

That whooshing sound you can hear is not from freefall, but from my joke passing over your head at an altitude of around 12,000 feet... ;-)

OMG...now I wanted a new version of that movie with Bane looking like this all the time.

Panties in America are not inherently sexual, unless you are a puritanical Christian - so for example a photo of a small child in their underwear is not inherently sexual in Japan or the US. However, in the context of this video - and anime in Japan in general - a brief flash of panties (or "panchira") is sexual…

Agreed. I love how he started out as this (seemingly) good-natured, stuttering guy who alpha power was...counseling. Now he's turned in to this bad-ass, but rather than it being him fighting and shooting, it's believable because he's still got the mannerisms, but he's like "I just found out this is the home you built…

Given the age of the girl I would be worried that she would put it in her mouth as she seems to be around the age when babies explore the world with their sense of taste.

Couldn't it be that they were just shouting when the police arrived, and in the course of explaining what transpired the husband and/or the wife mentioned the scratching, neither realizing that this would lead to her arrest?

I'm coming in late here (only just watched the episode), but I think the point was that the planet is not currently at war, and not directly the enemy of the Jedi. By supporting the insurgency the Jedi are promoting conflict in a peaceful world, and even worse in a situation where the lines between military and…

Your comment, good sir, is comedy gold.

Jeez - birds, seals, dolphins, sharks...pretty much *everything* in the ocean is eating them.

Actually, I have, but it was ages ago so I guess my memory is failing me.

#6 is about battles where the psychic forces themselves are visualized - as lightning, or balls of light - as opposed to "two people frown at each other with fingers held to their temples", that used to be the standard way of showing a psychic battle in Western movies and TV shows. See:…

Thanks for the clarification. I too find it annoying when specific terms are misused or diluted. My own pet peeve is "MacGuffin", which people often misuse to refer to any object involved in the plot of a story, rather than the actual meaning of an object that exists only to be pursued for the sake of the plot.

Little known fact - this is actually a photo of Master Sgt. Zackery saluting as he is about to enter the plane, not exit it. That's how badass and superheroey he is.

I'm not as avid a reader as you are, but wasn't there another story where Dredd's head was featured "obscured", but only because he had plastic surgery to change his face so he could infiltrate a criminal organization?

As a Kate Beaton fan, I thank you for posting this witty and topical comment.

Only exceeded in awesomeness by this...

I think "Hogan's Heroes" goes to show the only way you can do a light comedy about a dark topic is to water it down to the point where the Nazi are bumbling fools and there is no suffering in the POW camp. At that point the setting is irrelevant as 'Nazi' and 'POW' are just labels with no connection to the characters…

Anna may be making a return - check out the graffiti in the background of this screencap, apparently from the teaser for 2x04.
