I too was deeply disturbed that Barney's solution to having sex with his mother was having sex with his mother from behind.

My main take-away from th'episode was that I want a laptop that can project onto walls. Even more than I want an all-wall TV or a stormtrooper statue.

I agree. I had to stop reading the reviews after I found out who killed Laura Palmer, but it was too late. Even more frustratingly, after I caught up and read the reviews I'd missed, I noticed the reviewer being careful about spoilers. Too late!

His Dark Materials
Will and Lyra's daemons both stabilize at th'end of the books, so isn't this one out of contention for them failing to grow up as the series goes on?

Trailers?
This article'd've been easier to read had th'author included screengrabs of that character in question, perhaps side-by-side with a shot of the actor unadorned. Pasting in the trailer seems like the lazy way out.

Don't listen to Waestif. Some of the most amusing comments are replies to duplicate posts.

We were both pretty sure that WAS Fillion until we looked it up. I wonder why they didn't, synce they borrowed JLU's Booster Gold/Skeets team. It seemed like DiMaggio (who plays Skeets, I think) was doing his Fillion-as-vigilante immitation.

Lateralization, the theory wherein our brains our specialized by hemispheres, is not outdated. Perhaps what is outdated is the certainty of it: Some people process language in the right hemisphere, or in both, but for 90% of right-handed people, it's on the left where it's expected. Plenty of experiments with cutting

The ones that really sold me on the show were the Etrigan episodes "Day of the Dark Knight" and "Trial of the Demon" and the two parter "Deep Cover for Batman"/"Game Over for Owlman."

While we're picking nits, Weeper wasn't going to blow up Gotham, he was going to blow up Fawcett City.

After every episode, I want to come hear and read about it, but of course end up on some inferior review site. I'm glad I won't've to deal with that anymore.

As far as Lisa knew, the assassin was to've killed her father if he didn't hear from Jackson. This is shown in the movie when, after calling Cynthia, she hands the phone to Jackson, and asks him to call off his dog. It is only then that he reveals that instead he was going to call with the order to kill.

I read Fagin having no idea it was related to Dickens and still very much enjoyed it.

I too will never be tired of these moments. They're so sublime.

Fair enough, Noel. Watching it, I was rolling my eyes at th'idea until it went off the rails, and then I began to really enjoy it, especially the surprise ending.

The John Cleese scenes had me laughing until I hurt. I did not expect to like that movie.

The Simpsons!
I'm sad to see no love for the Simpsons comeback, and I certainly agree with those who find American Dad!'s absence conspicuous.

American Dad!
We needed AD! (AD would never've stooped so low) on this list, for th'episode when Stan is visited by the Ghost of Christmas past, but once he ends up back in the eighties he makes use of the time-travel to commit an assassination.

Couldn't agree more
I kept waiting for this movie to have a point, but it's over and I'm still waiting. It was totally boring except for the cat.

Yes, they only needed him for that one scene, and presumably they were gonna toss out th'identity as soon as they got home, but Billy called three times and they had to head right over. Also, I was fearing Johnny was the M.W. cover with the Christian Bale Batman voice, and it wasn't (was THAT El Diablo?) so I was
