A documentary by Ken Burns.

I'm not sure that the scene where the Nazi scientist rides the corpse of possessed nun (who he has always secretly loved) into the furnace counts as "forgetting" ;-)

Non-book reader observation: Was that "Checkov's statue" we saw as the camera panned along the gigantic Mormon spaceship? I could not shake the feeling that the Angel Moroni's meters-long gold trumpet was due to play some weird part in the finale. Or perhaps I'm over-thinking it and it's just meant as a sort of visual…

Family Guy's "Road to Rhode Island" was a note perfect love letter to those movies

Well, to be on the safe side I would not accept a space ride from Sanra Bullock or George Clooney until those rocks get tracked.

Yeah Mateo pulls his little ship hard to starboard as he releases his improvised mass drivers/meteor storm. He'll probably kamikaze that into whatever Martian ship finds him, because something tells me the OPA won't find him first.

You win all the Space Internets for the today for the awesome Scott Pilgrim hat tip!

I was wondering if the reviewer missed that—I was almost positive they got pulled over my Martians. I don't see it as a dangling thread but more as how a single mistake by any low level cog in the system can restart the fuse that will blow that system apart, what Amos calls The Churn in the next episode, despite the…

Which is also pretty standard noir story device. Cynical cops still weening themselves off the sauce they've used to dull their moral compass for years tend not to be at the top of their game for a while. And it wouldn't be noir if it was just a squad room full of gung-ho do-gooders enthusing "Golly gee willikers,…

Anyone own it yet? The only review on Amazon slags the quality of the transfer to Blu-Ray which sounds like both a shame and something of a rip-off if it's not much better than my existing DVD.
Although, extended interviews…

"Don't touch things."

And Roth's scowling, impatient straight man reaction to each one of those is always pure gold.

So your best friend had never actually read Shakespeare? ;)

Every one of those was brilliant. If Rozencrantz hadn't had the attention span of a Golden Retriever puppy the cause of science would have advanced by centuries.
"You'd think that this would fall faster than this…"

Probably one of my favorite movies ever. And as much as I love pretty much everything Roth and Oldman did playing off each other, my favorite lines were from Dreyfus. He's the perfect embodiment of how everyone sees actors and how they see themselves if they're honest. Watching his distilled archetype declaim the fall…

I love that Miller's hair looks like a call back to Gary Oldman's crazy haircut in 5th Element. I also like that his hat has already become meta referential. Multiple in world characters trash talk him for it for entirely in world reasons while still allowing the rest of us to have an ongoing snicker at Miller's…

*sad trombone*

Simmons lights a mean mennorah.

Seriously? Read some history or watch the news. This is exactly how repressive regimes have kept people in line ever since they invented repressive regimes. Unicorns and rainbows are the next channel over.

I was wondering how "Strange Fruit" got recorded in this reality as well. They really haven't touched on the fate of African Americans in the occupied US yet. Given Nazi and Japanese attitudes toward them I doubt it will be good, especially when coupled with deeply ingrained racism already present in the US un-diluted…
