Die Hard 5 should have been good because it was an odd number. One and Three were good. By the laws of sequel numerology, Soviet Russia Dies Hard was supposed to be entertaining, at least.

Why aren't you in the sequels? You elevated the first movie by giving it a crackle of Beat Cop derision.

It's excellent on rewatch because you can easily start it at any point in the movie and immediately be engaged with the story. There's always something exciting happening (without there being a surfeit of 'splosions, which is basically all that happened in the 4th and 5th sequels).

I was bothered by the Rudy/Jess storyline because I was like, "Rudy, at least go down on Jess!" Then we find out that the poor girl's so desperate that she's using a potato, and I was REALLY annoyed with Rudy.

I'm not sure if the show could have been that tight, honestly. The writers have never shown great adeptness at building tension or longer arcs. This show is at its best when it's a brazen comedy, and the later series has let the show put those comedic moments on display.

I have been on both sides of that equation. That feeling is going to subside for them, especially once this girl finds a boyfriend (and don't be…

Laura: WOW. You are so much more understanding than me about everything. You rock and are amazing (tell Mr. Bow that he is unbelievably lucky to have you—actually, make him read this again this week).

I would have voted for Allie Brosh.

How old are you?

And now I know what I'm doing this weekend! Silly pants, 6-pack, and going to the outdoor skating rink for curling.

I, too, enjoy curling. It's shuffleboard but with better clothing and sliding on ice. And you can do it outside if it's cold enough, so it's almost like a real sport and everything.

Not to mention that corporate interests have become very, very good at selling their SWAT wares to small police forces.

Well, I'm on this site. So, safe to assume I'm not.

I probably shouldn't be wearing sweatpants for that discussion, huh?

When in doubt about the expiration date, I just mix the leftover spoilers with vodka.

I'm always professional when talking to someone named Jamjams.
