That episode was irritating- like, they take it back, but the idea is that a single stray bolt of Lantern energy could destroy a planet? That's like putting someone on trial for nuking Cleveland based on firing a shot randomly into the air.

wait, his defense is just 'galactus is a natural thing, and therefore we cool with it?' like, hitler was a natural born human as well, but generally speaking 'committing genocide' overrides that

titus is both awesome and genuinely good, and i absolutely hated across the universe- taymor's one of those people who always makes something ambitious and distinctive, but sometimes it's just a horrible idea the whole way through and the result is something shockingly bad

Where's the line between a reality show and a game show? 72 Hours, to me, sounds more like the latter- it's not like they start with a giant group and slowly cut it or focus on everyone's personality, it's some people with a very concrete goal that will be met or missed by the end of the episode.

I think I never noticed how funny an actor Aniston can be because I never liked her character much, but she's pretty amazing in Horrible Bosses (and solid in a fairly weak role in Office Space)

All the ones who aren't Ross. Ross is the worst.

Harpy might be overstating it, but it always seemed as though she was something of a villain. Though that come off as much a 'my ex-wife's new partner' stock characterization as anything specific about Susan.

did you know that the title is actually a pussy joke? 'nothing', in shakespeare's era, was a slang term for 'vagina'

"Unlike, say, Julie Taymor’s lavish big-screen Shakespeare adaptations, Ado never loses the spirit of its source material."

the character was literally portrayed by a block of wood with a mean face painted on it in a lot of stage productions so it's actually pretty great casting

the weirdest conspiracy theories are always the ones that require that one learn exactly the right amount (significant radiation present in the Van Allen belts) and no more (you can literally calculate how many rads the astronauts would be exposed to given the speed at which they were travelling and the radiation…

Haha fuck I honestly had not read this comment and made the same grammatical point, 16 hours later. Fuck me.

It's always weird when 'wicked' is used as an adjective, rather than an adverb- I've almost always seen and heard it used to modify a modifier, as in 'wicked fackin smaht'

Are we just quoting song lyrics here? Let's raise the bar

I feel like I've heard that she was/is a high school drama teacher, which makes sense. In a sad way.

yeah, those corporate fatcats, starting a dvd label and releasing wake in fright and miami connection. what jerks.

I mostly have good theater experiences, but I saw Star Trek at a matinee yesterday and there were two women in the dead center of the theater who chatted merrily about what was happening in the movie at full volume throughout, despite at least half a dozen people asking them to be quiet. Phones can be discreet, if…

Yeah, time hasn't done a lot to her- her hair looks slightly gray due to lighting, which is perhaps the least horrible aging I have ever seen on anyone

I think the over time people get larger thing was about matter expanding so that everything gets larger in proportion, and we just don't notice, not about increasing height in the normal sense.

Man, the 'Monica used to be fat! That's inherently funny!' joke has not aged well
