That's actually where synths were installed back then. They hadn't invented stands yet, so we had to bolt our synths to the wall at angles. It was such an innocent, if awkward time.

I was so annoyed by descriptions of the "physical component" that I sold mine without even opening it. I'll do the same for Add Violence if it's more dust and cardboard.

I thought that too the first time, but then I've gone and listened all the way through a number of times now. It's that loop at the end - it's slightly off-kilter and the shift from the song's rhythm to that slightly out-of-sync loop catches me each time. I wind up listening through because the distortion slowly eats…

What the fuck does that headline mean? Did someone have a stroke while typing it? If intentional, well, then, you got me to click, AV Club. I don't give half a shit about wrestling but I still had to open this to attempt, and fail, to make sense of that headline. So now you know: gibberish makes me click through.

Over The Top is the best movie about an arm-wrestling truck driver. I won't hear any suggestions otherwise.

A phrase, maybe: "revolving door of assholes."

Uh, that's a PREQUEL, duh!

Same for Rogue One. I saw it in 2D a few days before seeing it in 3D and the 3D was pretty damned awesome, and I don't normally do 3D. I noticed there's a big difference in the way 3D is handled in different films - all the previews for the Marvel stuff in 3D looked awful, but all the more Disney-proper stuff looked…

I'm pretty excited for Windows Explorer: The Movie. What do files do when we're not using them? How do they mourn the Deleted? The unrated edition will also feature folders merging. Dirty!

TJ Miller needs to go back to being the voice of phlegm in the Mucinex commercials.

I have to ask, what makes you believe it is "definitely real"? Believe me, I'd love for it to be real because there'd be little for anyone could support Trump for after that, but I haven't seen anything particularly compelling to support its existence. It just seems too good to be true.

A tour of the White House would be a great place to proudly display one.

"[Paint] isn't dead, it just smells funny."

I liked The Prestige a lot, and that's despite figuring out the basics of the ending early into the movie. And damn if Scarlett Johansson didn't look amazing in period-appropriate clothing. It feels the most re-watchable of his films so far.

One good live album from each tour is what bands should release. Not everyone will want it, but for those of us who do, we'll cherish it. Though I personally love the fact that Pearl Jam releases every live show - you know if you go to a show, you're going to have a really cool way to remember it

FINALLY. Well, maybe. Only if it actually happens. Gotta take any "reissue" news with a BIG grain of salt with HD. I got tired of waiting so I made my own remasters of New Day Rising and Candy Apple Grey, the two I listen to the most, and they blow away the tinny original CDs, but then almost anything would.

What can I say, I am a simple man.

May I just offer a kindly "FUCK OFF"? Getting kids to eat in a restaurant is a battle in itself. Let them eat something familiar and simple. I don't care if it costs more than it's worth. You're not paying for the raw food, you're paying to be there. If I want to take my kids to a restaurant but know they're not going…

Were you really though? What kind of discussion were you hoping to engage in when you write the whole thing off as a "joke name" and "joke idea"? Sounds to me like you didn't have a discussion in mind at all, just wanted to toss out a couple of text bombs to stir things up. I really can't imagine where you think a…

Nope, Rogue One is excellent. I rarely see movies twice in a theater, but I saw Rogue One twice, and it was even better the second time.
