Wait, if Alex had a perfect archrvial throughout all of high school, how did she win all of the awards?

Sorry, but the "Incredibles is objectivist" trope is a pet peeve for me, because the movie really doesn't demonstrate that at all. Let's start with the Incredibles. Besides the fact that Mr. Incredible goes out of his way to help a little person cut through the red tape of the giant corporation he himself works for,…

Kinda felt that was a harsh dig at the Game Grumps in particular, though maybe there are far less competent "wacky buds playing games" on Youtube. Well, not maybe, definitely, but they still are one of the iconic examples there.

Or Fight Club. Especially Fight Club, really.

Wait, no, this could be perfect! He could go back in time to the end of season 1, make sure Sylar stays dead this time around, effectively retcon out everything from seasons 2 on, then get depowered somehow. So Peter's dead, Sylar's dead, Hiro's weakened, and we don't have to pretend that anyone cares about the feudal…

Yeah, mine's coming too in a matter of weeks. Not looking forward to
that one. On the plus side, I don't use my real name HERE, so
technically I don't have to address it, if someone even reposts in the
first place.

This is dating me (and outing me as a geek,) but Ryo-Ohki from the Tenchi Muyo series. Cute, friendly, and most importantly, turns into a spaceship.

Yeesh. Out of curiosity, what's everyone's total for seeing and/or hearing of these movies?

Pff. Hot Shots! killed Saddam like twice.

I'm with you. They managed to establish five characters in a matter of seconds, and that "A-holes" line sold the movie to anyone still on the fence.

They do best video games yet? They did, technically, reabsorb the game site.

That marketing campaign started in 1984. The new generation is now in its mid-forties.

The jokes were fine, but I was never a fan of this episode's overall plot. Every "act" of the story basically forgot about what came before it. If the episode had been just about Ned's crisis of faith, it would have been a lot more coherent, but then the last act made it about his childhood instead, with the issue…

Somewhere, I have a copy of Mostly Harmless autographed by Douglas Adams. We had a towel, too, but I'm not sure that survived the interim years.

I'll say this much. Fallout:NV is one of the rare times I felt I was role-playing a character, instead of going the usual three "justice lesbian/total evil dickwad/true neutral" playthroughs. There were times when I was given a mission, one I might want to do and that would be helpful to the NV world at large, but…

Hey, I don't have to take that shit from you, but I will because you're such a great friend and I really respect that!

"I call it a Hawking finale."

Gen Con. My only real vacation of the year. It was good times, and I wisely took today off to recover from it. Tomorrow, though, will probably suck at work.

Honestly, I didn't expect anything sooner than three years from now, but it would help if Marvel would at least announce a Captain Marvel movie or something. Let's look at their upcoming schedule.

Well, eat at the Cheesecake Factory enough times and that should be doable.
