Arkham Asylum. I came into comics when this book was new, and it was absolutely perfect for getting me hooked. I had a kind of tangental understanding of the Batman universe, just from being a kid in america, and it was just enough to make the character reveals interesting. The impact might be diluted now, after

Berberian Sound Studio, along with being a pretty cool movie, is absolutely loaded with rad vintage audio gear.

Cancer's not here, man.

Cancer's not here, man.

What about Dr. Loomis?
That guy was always so hyperbolic about how his patient was an embodiment of purest evil.  God, what a bore.

Huh. Funny that Korn's new album just happens to share its name with one of the best metal albums of the year. Coincidence or ILLUMINATI INFLUENCE? Or just grasping at credibility straws?

Holy shit, Evan.  Where did you hear Shoppers?  Westcott Syracuse represent.

Lee Van Cleef

It's so groovin', it's outta sight.

Neat!

Alright, I'll bite: what do saccadic patterns have to do with the movie?

You don't have to be an asshole to enjoy good headphones. They really do make a difference, if you're interested in that difference. I won't try to claim that a $400 pair of phones is sooo much better than a $200 pair — diminishing returns and all that — but I ponied up for a $150 pair of earbuds last year (Audeo by

This is bullshit. Beyond all of reasons that make feminists cringe, that fucking hairbrush is never going to land on anyone's ass. GQ's idea of what constitutes "lesbian fetish play" is garbage.

Look, I know it's done by a bunch of LA douchebags, but Sweet Child O' Mine clearly has the best guitar solo ever put to tape.

Definitely surprised that it's a minority opinion… I detest Stories. All of my friends do as well; I assumed everyone did. Interesting!

I wasn't aware that people think Netflix chooses not to carry movies based on their content. This is the place where I streamed the completely unrated 9 Songs a couple weeks ago, and from whom I got Nacho Cerda's Aftermath, which is really really not something that would be carried by a company who espouses

Oh, Ken Herzog. You are not alone. Amityville II has a cult of at least two total men. I remember seeing it as a very young child, maybe 6, and it scared the living shit out of me. Especially the part where the son's stomach gets crushed and weird… That image has stuck with me for thirty years, and is still my

Lethal Weapon. Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock. Jingle bell rhyme and jingle bell chick plummeting from a balcony and smashing the shit out of a car.
