Love the Ferrari 458 reference.

And the Rays is just a carbon copy, but blue instead. The White Sox also have "generic fuzzy monster" as their mascot.

I personally love all the Black Company books. very well done Military Fantasy.

@avclub-b438f33d120fae67d78ea4cbe43de909:disqus, I agree even though the abandoned city full of greyscale people was my favorite part of the interminable slog that was Tyrion's chapters in ADWD. Also Dany's chapters were a slog too! And most of Jon's….and well I liked the Davos chapters at least. And Bran.

I saw a novelization of "Clockwork Angels" in the library the other day, and I was like "hmmm, that could be interesting" then I saw it was co-authored by Anderson so I threw it down like it was a snake and kicked it under the shelf.

It's a bullshit story by bullshit people. Especially how they "discovered" the notes after their first prequel series flopped and sucked donkey balls.

Heretics was ok, once it got going (took a while for me). chapterhouse was preeeety dull. And then Hunter and Sandworms was Abomination.

I like Hobb quite a bit, but the rain wilds series was just dragging and dragging. The first book was great, and then the next book was like, split into 3 separate books. Haven't read the latest one. Will do it eventually.

Pretty much, yeah. You look at some of the plotpoints from any of the Herbert-Anderson collaborations and then compare them to the major plotpoints of the real Dune series and you're left wondering exactly how Frank Herbert got his brain damage if he's the one who plotted them out. So yeah, super fishy. Not to mention…

There's quite a few suspicions on the internets as to whether Brian Herbert was ever working from his father's notes, or at least as extensively as he proclaims, on a account of how secretive he was about the whole "finding them in a super secret safe, and also I can't show them to anyone" thing.

BOOM BITCH! BY LIKE FIVE SECONDS! THE CROWD GOES WILD!

I want you to pay me

You still have Sam Fuld! YOU ALL STILL HAVE SAM FULD!

He's seen things you people wouldn't believe….Cookies on fire off the shoulder of an oven…

Wait a minute! I'd like to tack on a rider to this bill: $30 million of taxpayer money to support the perverted arts

Personally I really liked the Florida episode.

Pfft, awfully ironic coming form someone who's merely a construct of MY mind.

B.B.B.Q! The extra B is for B.Y.O.B.B

Man, I don't even watch the show, but the acronym MLP immediately makes me think of my little pony. What has the internet done to me?! I should throw it in a lake.

Tell me some sci-fi conceits than can actually be explained by real science and can't just be boiled down to "and then a miracle happened." Surely there must be tons with all that legit sci-fi that you read and watch. Since you brought up "The Fly" tell me about how much smarter that conceit was. Was it not just "you…
