I'm just glad Captain Obvious from the Hotels.com ads has a profitable sideline

Much better than frivolous business

Matt Damon

Believe it or not, Sporty Spice has carved out quite the career for herself after the Spice Girls. I believe she's the only one who still makes money from music

Word. We needed Hoke. Waaaaaaaaay more than we needed the extremely disappointing Hap & Leonard, turns out.

Savage. As delightfully nasty as it is accurate

DX:HR had some of the best music of any game, but that title theme…I used to fire up the game just to listen to it

Oh yes. And as he is a thin-skinned man baby, he cared too much. When critics turned on him, he made filmed tantrums. Everything post Clerks 2 (even the surprisingly good Red State) was him throwing a tantrum that boiled down to either "fuck critics, I have a following" or "fuck you, critics: You said I couldn't make

Red State is pretty good movie that could have been really great if he had done, maybe, three more passes on script. The germ is there, it's just malnourished

Nice to see the guy who created "Boss" is still getting projects done. I'm surprised he is, but still, nice.

I like that the premise is him being too clever to fall for the meaningless signifier bullshit other people snap up, but he wears a flag pin on his lapel in every promo.

Wait, wait…I bailed on Louie in Season 2. He killed a homeless guy?

Airheads. If you were a kid trying to beat the heat by going into your house and watching TV for a bit, you were probably gonna turn on Comedy Central, and if you were watching Comedy Central at any point in the summer after 1994? Baby, you were watching Airheads

Man, I would watch the shit out of a Predator movie where the Predator is always drinking cheap beer just out of frame and verbally abusing a robot when not hunting.

No, but I can mine a whoooooole pillar of Heridium without growing so bored I kill myself. (Fuck you, broken Warp Drive)

"Takin' it off, Luke?"

I've got mixed feelings about this game. One the one hand, they delivered on some of what I was looking for: Planets that very strongly resembled 1970's sci-fi paperback covers drenched in shades of green, orange and purple and the ability to fly seamlessly from planetside to space (Something I wanted to implement in

An excellent, excellent question. Here's another noodler: Why bother with the interesting-but-vague "Red Shit from War of the Worlds Killed People" angle and (seemingly) do nothing with it, other than copy paste it across the galaxy?

Oh, my god, I can't get enough of the UNATCO HQ, Hong Kong, and Lucky Money Club themes. You feel like such a badass sneaking around and kicking ass to those.
