I'm old enough to remember reel-to-reel tape recorders and that sumbich they had in the video was going awfully fast. The speed seemed to be somewhere between record/play and rewind/fast-forward. Or maybe that's just how gummint tape recorders work, but that would've meant more tape used and more for Nixon et al to…

I happened (yeah, just happened, it wasn't on purpose I swear!) to catch an interview clip with Rebecca Black and she didn't write the song. Apparently it was one of her big dreams to make a music video so her parents contacted some studio that does that sort of thing and they sent over a song that had her playing…

As do I, but I found it hard to believe that "Serenity" is barely edging out "Back to the Future." They're both great movies, but I just thought there were more Browncoats out there than fans of Marty McFly. Of course I also was surprised that the "Star Wars" movies are blowing past "Alien" and "Aliens," that…

Now you've got me wondering if we'll ever see "Iron Sky."

Thanks for the video. I react the same way when watching online porn. I almost feel normal now.

I just tried it tonight and I'm changing my RSS feed and bookmark to reflect the uk version. I didn't realize just how much better I like it, how much I missed it and how much easier on the eyes it is. Personally, I find it far more functional and I know all this has been beaten to death, but the changes were just a…

I'm not a starred commenter or anyone important in any sense of this site and maybe it's my advanced age relative to the median age of active online entities, but I still don't like the redesign. That's not to say I can't get used to it, especially as the improvements continue to roll out, albeit at a glacier-like…

I hate to "pile on," but the more I try out the redesign the more it irritates me. It's no longer leisurely fun to come to io9 and a redesign was not needed. Broken things have remained broken for too long, as if testing on the new design was not done before rollout. Please. Put. It. Back.

Not a fan of it, either.

Not a fan of it, either.

To be honest, I was never all that thrilled about this movie...until I saw this trailer. I am so there when it premieres.

"Perky boobage." There's a phrase that should be used more often.

Thank you! That was a great line and I got a good laugh out of it. Best. Use. Ever.

I admit it, I want to see it. I wanted to see it more when it mentioned Despicable Me, then I wanted to see it less when they mentioned the Chipmunks. So I guess it kind of evened things out for me.

The T-100 isn't nearly as fearsome as later models, but I guess you gotta start somewhere.

True. A strong enough magnetic field will affect any kind of matter.

The oft-repeated words, "I'll be in my bunk" come to mind rather than, "Why?"

Hearing that Tamblyn may remain a fixture is great news. I really love her character and even though she's as meek as they come, the character really does challenge House. Olivia Wilde is beautiful, but her character is pretty flat when compared to the quirky Masters IMHO.

LOL, I like "wangst," are you responsible for the coinage of that? If so, I would award you a Noah Webster star if I could, or at least a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.
