It had never even occurred to me that there had been a Golden Age of DVD. So then I looked at my DVD collection and realized I have only four DVDs: Soylent Green, which has a terrible commentary track; I'm Alan Partridge Season 1; Hotshot, a soccer movie starring Pele and Jim Youngs; and Slow Century.

It had kind of that Star Wars-esque To Be Continued feel. The bad guy is going to be going crazy and amassing some kind of army somewhere, disaster was averted for our heroes, a character gets a graceful kiss-off, and the good guy turns over a new leaf and embraces humanity as a result. And there's the Carl thing,…

I do think it was meant to be ambiguous, and really I think it demonstrates best what happens when you put kids in situations like that. They don't react like adults. Instead of putting the gun down, they freeze up. Instead of stepping back and saying, "put the gun down or I'll shoot you," they fire. These are the…

Aliens!

don't drop the pliers don't drop the pliers GOD DAMMIT

I withheld judgment at first (I admired what they were trying to do) and watched it again and I'm going with an A-. I think a lot of complaints are a little bit nitpicky to be honest. Why didn't the governor just shoot two people and let the rest fall in line? Why can't Andrea pick things up with her feet? I really…

The vibe I got from the Governor was "I DON'T NEED THIS!"

And I liked that there was music and it didn't seem like they were beating me over the head with ads for the Walking Dead soundtrack.

Can't wait for the Daryl-Carol-just-killed-the-reanimated-corpse-of-my-only-love-who-was-holding-me-back-sex.

Yeah, that gut bucket rock and roll set to a woman tied up and gagged, looking terrified really struck a weird note for me.

I got mine Friday and my ear pussies came.

And really, what the fuck are you supposed to do in an adult theater if it's not masturbating? Guy was visiting his parents and didn't want to jack off in their house. That's called being a good son.

It might not have defeated Communism, but Monty Python did the best performance of Tchaikovsky's First:

The first classical recording I ever bought was a Van Cliburn two-fer with Tchaikovsky's First and Rachmaninoff's Second. Great CD.

I don't think the idea of putting a gun in a kid's hand for self-defense in a zombie apocalypse is out of the question. It's just practical. But the Governor is training kids for an army with an assault on another camp (full of living people) in mind. There's a difference.

That black Woodbury henchman had better watch out.

It has to be extremely difficult to act Andrea, borderline impossible.

Merle is pretty good to have back in the group. He's just kind of your generic shitter, and Michael Rooker does pretty well with that.
