Her entire RIP comment section will be riffs on "sucking dick on the way to the parking lot" jokes. Just getting it out of the way now.

Also, you'd have to find enough people to redeem them at that price, and the mere act of doing so would likely destabilize the market enough to crash the price long before you actually ended up with that much money.

If you want to be terrified into pre-compliance with our inevitable robot overlords (and have a good hour to waste reading someone's musings on this subject), I present this for your consideration: http://waitbutwhy.com/2015/…

I expected a block of ice and every week until release, they would show a picture of it melting a little more.

You know he's been on the internet since the '90s, because he replaced the E in his name with a xi. I did that with my screennames in the '90s, too. Greek letters are so cool. They're like our letters, only different!

I was trying to make a list of all of the tv shows I want to watch/catch up on and I got frustrated and gave up because it was too long. The amount of "Must Watch" TV on right now is totally overwhelming.

Without knowing how many viewers any other Showtime shows get, this is basically meaningless.

I think it would have to, yes.

While I recognize your storytelling concerns, I think the degree to which two (maybe three) generations of moviegoers associate Leia with Carrier Fisher is simply too strong to overcome, especially in the very last movie. Had Fisher died before they rebooted the franchise, maybe, but I think it would come off as…

And the local police officer eats a booby-trapped axe right to the face.

I have no feelings about Robert Buckley playing Nathan Drake, but this is as good a time as any to point out the the iZombie cast has one of the most utterly delightful twitter presences imaginable and all seem to genuinely love each other. They're great.

I remember when I made that 2edgy4me statement about Columbine as a high schooler because we were in the middle of pouring cruise missiles onto Yugoslavia.

I keep reading the explanation that it was a "gas filled balloon" that caused a panic, but I also keep reading that you can see a flash and that people heard the bang/felt a shockwave elsewhere in the city.

We're having a lot of issues with AVClub instinct for snark overriding any sense of "reading the room" in this thread.

Denizens of Podmass: Can someone recommend an alternative to the default Apple Podcast app for podcast listening/management for iOS? Every revision of the Podcast app further convinces me that the people who design it never actually use it to, you know, listen to podcasts, so I'd like suggestions for a good…

Shhhhhh. They don't talk about "the incident" anymore. Do you want to be sued for thousands of hours of hypnotherapy?!?

And, after The Incredible Hulk, they still seemed hesitant until after Iron Man 2 also put up strong numbers.

No way. Harry Potter fandom is rabid. The movies would have to take a truly insane turn towards the bad, offensive, or incoherent for those to fail. The only thing that tanks Fantastic Beasts is if the next movie is two hours of Depp as Grindewald wearing blackface and telling racist jokes in Polish.

Or at least considered waiting to see whether The Mummy bombs before committing?
