Do demolition derby drivers listen to that much music while on the job?

Tommy was a Dungeons and Dragons player. They are not known for their charisma, since they frequently use it as a dump-stat.

The cover album also has The Polyphonic Spree (which I enjoyed) and Stephen Colbert in a weird, out-of-place narration from "Tear Me Down," I think.

So, Scott, why not even mention how amazingly GOOD the soundtrack was? No mention of the crowd favorite Wig in a Box, even? As a long-time lurker/contributor I have noticed the quality of this music mentioned many, many times. Off the top of my head, I recall that it made the list of Musicals to Sing Along with and…

Didn't it also have the faces in the water (of the two people who had drowned earlier in a voyage) from a similar story?

Tell that to that weeping mother, you souless prick!

I actually met the little girl's mom. It was incredibly pathetic and awkward. Without provocation she will shove a crinkled photograph right in your face, while half-sobbing, "Glenn Beck raped and murdered my baby."
Christ, that girl couldn't have been any older than ten…

Dunk is my spiritual brother.
LOL.

I don't like it either. None of the characters look anything like me!

Bobcat's apparently always been a unique character. Tom Kenny (voice of Spongebob) went to school with him and befriended him when they were still young kids. In a "Fresh Air" interview, Tom said that after watching Bob get the hell beat out of him by the school nuns on a regular basis for various infractions, he…

Wow, I shouldnt have slept in. Then I could have jumped to my own defense a little earlier.
And I am not mean OR grumpy, I LOVE Monty Python, and I generally dislike romantic comedies. So there, everyone!
I cheated and used deus ex machina as a shorthand for a cure-all that substitutes for real writing or effort,…

Not a fan
So far this is the only movie in this feature that has disappointed me. Without Keatons overacting, the movie is basically a bore-fest. There is no logical consistency to it, and the lack of reasonable explanations are negated by an awkward deus ex machina of: It reads like stereo instructions.
Then,…

Geena Davis and Randy Quaid
Scott is correct in mentioning that they are just capable tagalongs, but each of them has one of the great lines of the movie.
Quaid (breaking down in the taxi): He doesnt even understand COLORS!
Davis (when she realizes that theyre being robbed): This is a fucking nightmare!

Lost
Noel, I wonder if you, like me, are in your thirties. There was a strong, comforting feeling watching the Dharma Initiative in its 70s heyday, and I think it was because it brought back memories of the innocence of my childhood. Those big, dial phones really cinched it for me.
It felt very sad when all hell…

Is anyone else…
…so moved, impressed, and hyped up by the season finale that they just have to share it with someone, and can't wait for the regular Lost posting under the TV club?

I'm going to give a recommendation…
If you like zombies or botanical work with various strange plants…
well, you may or may not like this.
But if you like SMOKING plants and PLANTING zombies…
well, I guess I'm still not sure.

When the AV Club posted Great Movies That You Will Never Watch More Than Once (sorry, I know I'm butchering the title), I was entranced by the trailer for "Grave of the Fireflies." Then part-way through, I started crying and couldn't stop. I don't think I will EVER be able to watch that movie.
Then to learn that…

I've been a wreck over a lot of these movies. Probably because I was an untreated manic depressive for much of my life. I bet a lot of you bastards are similarly poorly equipped for handling these films. Birds of a feather and all that.
I'll just give one that hasn't been mentioned yet: "Awakenings." The scene at…

Thread-jack
Jesus Christ.
First Gary Gygax, now Dave Arneson has just died. It's very unhealthy to be a revolutionary role-playing game designer.

If I get the inside joke, do I win anything?
