Uh, ADMIRAL Kirk said that Spock was the most human. You call yourselves journalists??

Speak & Spell? Poltergeist? Are you honestly confusing Poltergeist with ET? Thanks for making me feel very very old.

Based on this review alone I've already figured out the entire plot and its twist.

As long as there are original trilogy characters mirroring my pissed-off-ed-ness or my despair, I'm good.

Finding out about our beloved characters when they were younger? That idea always works perfectly forever!

What's too bad is that hearing the original makes you realize, "Oh. I've been giving the Beastie Boys credit for what is basically just a Sly and the Family Stone song."

It makes that bit in Spaceballs insanely prescient!

Joss Whedon referred to the Reevers as the scariest bad guys he never had to show. Then he showed them in Serenity. And now it turns out John Carpenter showed them way before Firefly. OH well.

King hat.

Why do I remember this song as being more from 1984 than from 1983?

When you do a reboot, you're not allowed to call the old show on the phone and ask them what they did in their version.

Is anyone at the AV Club NOT leaving?

Purge = FESTIVAL!!!!

"Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark" is not a movie. Please don't ever say that again.

John Sayles??

John Sayles??

So I guess, according to David Simon, you have to be a Tralfamadorian to watch TV correctly.

Oh my god, I can't wait until this story goes away so I don't have to look at that picture anymore.
