Which would generate the strongest mixture of caution and excitement in me since I first heard they were making a big-budget film of Lord of the Rings.

Chamber of Secrets or GTFO!

I don't disagree, but I wonder if our opinions might be skewed by how horrible most of the other Clancy film adaptations have been. Clear & Present Danger was a travesty and even the high school version of me recognized that when he saw it the first time.

Smartest man on the internet!

It probably relates to the reason I find "reimagined" logos so tiresome. We have a pretty established visual image of these things already in-place. A person's fan art is their business, but I don't see it as being really worth sharing with the world at large.

Oh Belle… you do not disappoint.

No, this episode was nonsense. The characters we love got to do the things we love, but the circumstances were just ridiculous.

And apparently it was the rare 8-hour director's cut!

"…bring the whole plain down"? Really?

I'm not much of a Beatles fan, so I may be talking out of my ass here, but it's Lennon's apparent lack of whimsey that makes him so insufferable to me.

I'm curious like a cat! I guess that's why my friends call me Whiskers!

So… Season 1 of Heroes. You can just say, "Season 1 of Heroes" from now on. That'll be faster.

You sat quietly in a theater for 15 minutes while the fire alarms were going off?

Absolutely awesome!

In St. Paul, MN, they're trying to get people to watch the premiere outside, on the coldest night in 16 years, in costume, on an ice rink:

I can't believe you followed "on-the-nose" with a profile shot of Edith.
Poor Edith.

I think this is also the movie where I got the line about "carrying invalids to the dialysis machines!"

I'm sure it doesn't have the longevity of Shawshank, but I really enjoyed watching bits and pieces of Can't Hardly Wait almost every weekend in the late 90's.

Bulleit is the stinkiest whiskey I know. Sends the lovely Mrs. Thunder running for the hills.

There are times when I hate this fucking state.
