Yeah, it just seemed like the economy of screenwriting rule, as well as hiring all those extras and having a jungle set, practically gave away something wasn't right with the only other character we even met on that set. The only time I didn't think Awesome and Ellie weren't in spy trouble was when their apartment was

According to Wil Wheaton Spiner and the Director refused to do any take of the scene without him saying "I'm fine." Also they were re-writing as they were filming and kept going back and forth on the conraction thing. This episode really is the epitome of just need one more line to explain it. They do say Data has

This episode made me realize I have a new favorite 'tired' sitcom plot cliche. When someone decides to bang a character's mom. Sure we've only seen it twice, to my knowledge, but when the characters decide, or the title card tells me, the plot is going there I can't stop laughing. It's like the sitcom version of a

When I watch Beerfest I do tell everyone we're watching Academy Award winner Monique.

Consider my mind, blown.

I had a sweet Sega Saturn site that I coded by hand in HTML, but it was not on Geocities. If I recall the blue text was on a black starfield background. Which sweet Sega Saturn site was mine? The world will never know…

Black Dynamite is just plain hilarious and one of the best times I've had at the theater in a long time. I second that nomination.

The reveal of the monster just standing there, hanging out, wanting to get in the group shot made me jump out of my seat in the theater. Something about monsters not being scary, but just standing there where they don't belong, frightens me more then some creature announcing it's presence. I still get the chills

Too bad they didn't spin off Jess' character to another show. I never would have watched it but the world would have been spared the one note line readings of Milo Ventimigilia in Heroes. Oh no! I've just admitted to the AV Club I've seen a really embarrassing show…Heroes!

Wouldn't we be Sol One? I just like how Earth-centric the Federation is that we just don't care to rename our solar system to comply to every other system the we go to in the galaxy.

I just thought it was funny Michael used the full movie title when if it was an audiobook it would just be Push by Assfire. I mean Sapphire.

I did manage to work a "That bird stole my credit card!" into regular conversation yesterday. I was pleased.

My mom used to let us stay up late on weekends when James Bond movies were on so we could watch them. This was the first one I managed to stay awake for the whole thing and thought it was awesome. As an adult, who can stay awake for an entire movie's run time, I can see the flaws but still have a special place in my

Yep, hepped up on goofballs! Where's your Messiah now McLovin?

Sawyer is obviously a Star Wars fan since he called Hurley 'Jabba'. And even if Sawyer ditched the remakes and the prequels, conning does take a lot of time away from movies, (and honestly his pop culture knowledge seems stuck in the 80's) he should be aware of Anakin since Obi-Wan has a pretty lengthy discussion

And then Christian is there one last time in the barracks, dissapears, and immediately John shows up. Ben says how he's only afraid of one thing on the Island and it felt like he was talking about the Smoke Monster but then Locke the Smoke Monster comes out of the jungle. Even watching it the first time it felt like

Two quick notes: Why was Christian the Smoke Monster able to be in the cabin? Because Locke broke the ash line in season 3 when he crossed with Ben. The Smoke Monster made all the crazy stuff happened and 'spoke' to John just to get Ben mad enough to kill him.

I get the feeling the candidates are immune from the 'talk once you're on my team' power. Or even if that exists since Richard isn't exactly a candidate and he listened to the Man in Black and then Jacob. You still have a choice.

"Do you see what happens Larry!? Do you see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps!?"

The look on Sayid's face, the "I can't believe a trained torturer/killer/solider fell for that" look, really brought it home for me.
