What!
Big fat spoilers ahead.

On a positive note
I like Glen Cook a lot, though he's a little hardboiled sometimes. But I like how he strips away a lot of the more mannered elements of fantasy and never lets himself get lost in his own mythology.

Martin
I have deep and terrible problems with George R.R. Martin. I fucking hate the way he ends his chapters—every single time it's some kind of misleading cliffhanger, as if I need to be tricked into reading on. That, to me, is not suspense. It's the mark of an immature writer who doesn't trust his ability to…

To clarify
That wasn't sarcasm, I'm just embarrassingly enthusiastic about House. Even the billion ads for it on this site don't bother me.

Me1!
Good god, it isn't? Let us prepare for an extended campaign of angry naysaying until that injustice is remedied.

People don't like the second?
Seriously? I thought it was a lot of fun, that the director pushed it over the top in a way it needed to go to be anything more than a cash-in. I liked the first all right, but I really thought RE2 was pretty awesome.

So awesome
See, if Transformers had been more like D-War, I would have had no problem with it, because man was D-War hilariously insane. My favorite part was when Behr and Brooks kicked back after a long day of being chased around LA by a giant snake to take a relaxing walk on the beach and just get to know each…

Fantasy
Yeah, bad fantasy's pretty damn bad, but name any genre ever where that's not the case. I'd rather read something silly with broadswords and dragons than a mediocre work of literary fiction, if it came to that.

Zelazny
Man, after being completely blown away by "Lord of Light," I pretty much had to read his Amber series. I get the feeling Zelazny occasionally gets into some loopy, overly hip territory, but he did write some pretty great stuff.

Nice
I wish people here would lay out reasons like that other than just saying "it sucks." Way more interesting.

This movie: kind of great
Sure, it doesn't have much going for it other than the cartoony violence and ultra-stupid plot, but I thought both those things were delightful enough to keep me entertained the whole way through.

Yeah
I'm intrigued enough to keep up with the second season, too. I just hope they keep exploring the darker elements of the show, because there were a lot of things in the first season I hadn't seen before, which is pretty impressive when it comes to the well-combed realm of serial killerdom.

Bunk
You might like it okay. My Wire-lust is embarrassing and I enjoyed Dexter pretty well. It's not great, but it's got some interesting things going on.

Former grade-hater
At first, I thought grades would detract from the "seriousness" of the review, or something like that—god knows what I meant by that—but I've found them to be a really neat addition to the review itself.

Alcohol, adulthood, etc.
It's true that in some ways Superbad is just a teen sex comedy, which as far as genres go is about the lowest of the low, but the more I think about it the more credit I'm willing to give it for its unusual stance on the staples of the genre.

B+
I think a B+ is a little low, if only because Superbad's fucking hilarious, but it's definitely not the tightest or most cohesive movie I've ever seen. I could see some people being put off a bit by that.

Ahh, Achewood
The only website where I actually get angry if I forget to read it that day.

Shaky cam
Oh, come on, Greengrass isn't anything like Bay. Through some miraculous process I don't understand, Greengrass' camera work gives you just enough coherence to understand what's going on without giving you a single instant to process any of it.

Sweet fancy Moses!
This movie wasn't even so bad it was good. Mostly it was just boring, confusing, and exploitative. It's not till the finale (well, except for that insane Art Bell thing) that it gets ridiculous enough to be funny. I am shocked to find this movie's only 105 minutes long, because it felt like two…

Interesting theory
Couldn't it also be true our childhoods started sucking because the Simpsons started sucking?
