Right there with you on Arkham City (I completed Arkham Asylum but am still only around halfway through AC). I try again every couple of months in between other games and it doesn't grab me. I think my main problem is similar to you re: gameplay…I just never felt like I "got" the fighting style enough to make it

poop back and forth forever? )) <> ((

All these comments make me feel like I must be missing something.  To me, their albums have been diminishing returns…loved loved loved Fort Nightly, thought It's Frightening was decent, and this find this one to be totally unmemorable and flatline.  The double-drumming, Walkmen-esque howling is almost entirely gone,

I'd put in a vote for "Titus Andronicus" as well.

Kind of hard to perform that play competently because it's pretty bad IMO.  Oh, the statue of the queen was really the queen the whole time!!  Even "Pericles" is more believable/interesting.

I actually thought that was as good a way as any to end the movie. (spoilers…sort of…)

Still say they should have gone with Tigh from Battlestar:  
http://adamp.wp42.com/files…  It's not a vague resemblance…it's an exact (Cylon?) copy.

I'm guessing the article is referring to "Here Comes the Hammer"??

I'll tell you the worst part about losing a foot.

ah, but Ignatiy, I've seen all three movies so while I won't quarrel with your Margin Call opinion (dull is in the eye of the beholder, I spose), I have no idea how you get "woman-hating" out of 50/50.  They certainly do more of that in Season of the Witch (it's even advertised in the title). I still think a review

Is that what we're calling it?  Christy just seemed in constant clenched-teeth disbelief that she was sitting next to a guy who liked things like Season of the Witch over Margin Call and 50/50.  Maybe we should hope for a reincarnation of the show with Armond White and Vishnevetsky.

No idea how they ended up making a 3.5 hr doc and it was skipped over entirely.  It was actually the first Allen film I ever saw.

Having seen Part 1 of this doc last night, I was even more shocked that it didn't get mentioned once there either.   Proto-Mystery Science Theater!  the ending striptease! egg salad!

I'm just hoping the Moriarity actor reigns it in a bit more…the squeaking at the end of S1 was a bit much.

The first thing I thought of when reading this article was "Source Code". *****  SPOILERS *****  the movie spends the entire time establishing that you can't alter the past, and then pulls a 180 and decides you can, in order to give the audience a happy ending.

Les Poissons, Les Poissons how i love Les Poissons

To be fair, I remember being really passionate about the Nintendo vs Sega dispute when I was in 4th grade.

It's just too bad the episode ends up with the Flying Green Troi scenes, as they had something going there for awhile.  The Crusher morgue scene is probably the creepiest thing Trek ever did.

That reminds me… everyone should read the Nicholson Baker New Yorker article about video games.  Actually, Uncharted 2 was his favorite of all the games, mostly because he would just set down the controller wax on about the pretty  water and shadow effects.
