Totally fine (for both accidents) but increasingly annoyed at the stupidity of drivers.

"Intolerably juvenile" is what makes TTG so, uh, tolerable. The world doesn't need more brooding superheroes. My only problem with it is that my kids watch the episodes over and over and over. "The Night Begins To Shine" cues up in my head at random moments because they've watched that episode so many times.

Yep. I figured with the luck we're having, this has to be our night. The luck: my wife's car was rear-ended and totaled a month ago (she was fine, however.) It was old (almost 13 years so we weren't heartbroken, just annoyed at being forced into a car payment.) So we got a beautiful brand new car that she's so excited…

I don't know, she seems a little weird.

Same here - played it two years ago and it brought the show to a halt. I'm sure some of the crowd were thrilled to hear it, but the rest just wanted to get back to straight-up rock.

I loved it in 2004, and I still unashamedly love it today.

I think you guys are overthinking this. The headline is just saying "here's a movie by the people who did Napoleon Dynamite" because people remember that. If they substituted Gentlemen Broncos, it wouldn't mean very much. To use the Bloc Party example, that would be like saying "from the band that made Four…"

I think her belief in God is the point though - it's religion that's the problem, not God, and she finally figures it out in the end that you can believe in God without joining the maligned followers who misinterpret the Bible's intentions.

The effects are incredible - actual studio models being used, along with realistic lighting (looks like footage from NASA missions) mixed with really well done CG. Story-wise, it's a big space opera that asks a lot and only partially delivers, but I thought the whole thing was beautifully done despite narrative flaws.

" freaking out all those cool uncles who already bought tickets for their 6-year-old nieces and nephews."

I don't recall that, but that doesn't mean much coming from my feeble brain. Anyway, from what I understand, if you go to the ISS, you train to fly the Soyuz in an emergency, which makes sense because what if the trained pilot is incapacitated? But now we're getting too grounded in reality for a silly show like this.…

Maybe we could start a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the MST3K Kickstarter.

On the shore, rather than in the middle of the country somewhere. The coastlines are pretty easy to identify from space. I may be overthinking this, however. They'll probably have him land in the ocean with some kind of non-existent capsule based on Orion, since Soyuz lands on, well, land, in which case they might see…

ISS has a permanent lifeboat in the form of a Soyuz capsule that Mike would use to return.

Well, I'm guessing that having them all move to Malibu, on the shore of the pacific, was done in order to make sense of Mike Miller returning to earth. My guess is the Malibu crew will do something at night that makes a bunch of light which Mike sees from ISS, and he decides to take a risk and return to earth as close…

We're cynical because it's not "a little bland." We're cynical because it's the pinnacle of blandness, the Everest of blandness, and other top, really large things that are bland.

It's gotten acceptable enough that "nerd" is cool, so the term is just out there.

Music nerds don't have "a few hundred mp3s." That's a normal person. Music nerds have tens of thousands of mp3s.

The biggest problem with the prequels is that they add absolutely nothing to the original trilogy. There is nothing that happens in them that bears any weight on the future we see in the OT. We know Anakin turns to the dark side when he is tempted. If they'd done something to make that seem much more sinister and sad,…

I actually bought the ANH book because, on thumbing through it and reading random excerpts, I thought it was pretty decently written and it sounded entertaining. It was also only $9 at Costco for the hardcover, and I fell in love with the velvety-feeling dust jacket. They're nicely designed books.
