"I appreciated they didn’t hit the nail on the head too hard in terms of Gendry preferring the same weapon as his father." That's not a pun. A pun is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings.

What's conserved is energy, not power. It would be possible to engineer a powerful device that could be re-charged by one person. However, doing so would take a really long time. So my issue is the speed with which he reloaded. I can lift a car off the ground with one hand….and a hydraulic jack. But because I'm

Bronn and Jaime escaping alive was total (Dothraki) horseshit. So let me get this straight: Bronn was just bitching about not getting paid enough 5 minutes ago and now having dropped his giant bag of gold with little chance of retrieval he risks fighting swarms of Dothraki badasses to face down a fire breathing

Where the hell is spoiler space? I want to talk about this movie with a "we've all seen it" crowd.

Let me fix that one sentence for you: "But Jimmy Fallon is so incredibly annoying that he should die alone in real life." You're welcome.

Christine (directed by John Carpenter) is pretty awesome. Captured the tone of the book much better than most King adaptations.

I know I'm 3 months late, but it's taken me awhile to watch the show…

3D with glasses that doesn't darken the image already exists. Dolby 3D uses a frequency shift between the left and right eye instead of two different polarizations. It allows for a lot more light to pass through the lens and doesn't require a special screen. Saw Dr. Strange in (real) IMAX Dolby 3D and it was

The beginning of this episode felt totally disconnected from the end of the first episode. So Debbie has totally forgiven/forgotten about Ruth sleeping with her husband?

This is the first time we're learning that Dev's family is Muslim? And this was not a topic of discussion in-universe for the show in any shape, way, or form in the first season? Because, why would it be? In twenty-first century New York America Muslims are clearly treated just like anybody else along with all

This episode was awesome. The idea that this kind of quality television is broadcast is unbelievable (the millennials will just have to lookup what "broadcast" means). Not only was this an outstanding penultimate episode of the current season, but it also had many call backs to the wider universe of both The Flash

Don't know if someone already made this observation (and too lazy to look it up): What exactly was fictitious about Star Trek's third season. Because yeah, it had one.

Holy shit, this episode was a C at best. Here's the thing: there are a lot of circumstances around Savitar killing Iris in the future that are out of Team Flash's control, especially Savitar's motivation and the location of the murder. In this episode, the only thing that needs to change in the past is the team's

Just catching up on this show via DVR. Here's something you never see on cop shows: Julian is in the Captain's office complaining about Barry. Barry realizes it and says "I want my union rep in here for this"

That's not how things work in America. Although men are equally responsible for contraception (i.e. whether or not conception happens in the first place), they have no say in whether or not a child is brought to term. Even if it means they have to pay to pay child support based on the decisions of the mother alone

I was really put off by this movie in terms of the composition of the team of people selected to deal with the aliens. Where are the biologists? The way an organism views the world is influenced to a large extent by their senses. Human beings use a base 10 number system because we evolved to 10 digits on our hands

What am I supposed to get out of this video, exactly? I was led to believe it was going to be an examination of the ethics of artificial intelligence but it goes off on these tangents about how Arnold Schwarzenegger was a "presence" on set and then takes a right turn (okay, a left turn) into global warming.

IT person thinks they're in a STEM field. That's adorable.

Barry you fucking moron. I'll break it down for you:
-Patty already knows you're the Flash so just admit it.
-Once she knows that, where is she safer? In Central City with everybody else you care about that already knows you're the flash? …or maybe in a different city altogether? because she was already planning on
