Bah. The only acceptable Arthur alternate costume is Cannon Spike Arthur. That's almost as must-have as Elvis MODOK or Deadpool Wearing Marvel Girl's 70s Minidress.

Dammit, I LIKE Viewtiful Joe!
Worth noting, IMO: Much like the game that launched the franchise (X-Men: Children of the Atom), Capcom got the voice casts of the recent Marvel cartoons (Wolverine and the X-Men and the hugely underrated Spectacular Spider-Man and Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes) to play their…
So, I take this comment to imply that YJ is no longer on the winter/spring schedule for TV Club? :( Anyway. My thoughts are basically "Miss Martian isn't half as adorable as the writers want her to be," "I prefer Peter Pan Kon-El to broody mind-raped Kon-El" and "Even after ten years, half the time I think Jeff…
Clearly…
Max Biyalstock should've gone with superheroes instead of WWII if he wanted to mount a fiasco.
Sheldon has good taste
Haven't watched this show since the first season because I'm too lazy to catch it on the internet. Looking at the screencap here, though, I'm just glad to see that Sheldon is properly dressed as Wally West and not Barry Allen, because I'm THAT kind of comic nerd.
I always thought…
…that the nerdiest form of comedy was writing webcomics about webcomics?
@RagingBear, I always assumed that the costume in the first two games was hospital scrubs. I guess because of the shade of green.
Agreed on the basic concept being a pretty decent one. I don't recall Rosaline ever being established as a Capulet before, though; that seems like a really weird twist, and something that would've been important at the beginning of the story. "Oh Jesus, Romeo's finally over that Capulet girl who shot him down, and…
Wow
So he actually typed "they" instead of "their?" That's just fucking sad.
Fuck Zod
Seriously, the Nolan/Snyder teamup I guess I can get behind, but Zod again? The last thing we need is more Donner retreads by a studio afraid to use "regular" supervillains against Superman.
Actually, while it took me a while to get around to the Stones, I do have most of the "big" albums and the Greatest Hits. Don't assume that because my tastes are weird, they can't be diversely weird. :)
Violent Reaction to Grunge
I don't know what it was; twenty years later I STILL don't know what it was, but I have always hated ninety five percent of the early-90s "alternative" scene. I was 14 when Nevermind hit, and something about it just pissed me off. (It still does) It really fucked up my tastes for a…
Ratings warnings
The really odd thing about that sketch is that those WEREN'T new. The TVY/Y7/MA/etc. ratings on network TV were new, but the ones shown in the sketch are derived from the same two-letter codes (AL/AC/GV/etc.) that HBO/Cinemax and Showtime/TMC had been using for at least five years before that. As a…
Frankly, I was really hoping for Batshit 70s Japanese Spidey, who was empowered by aliens to fight cat-men and had a giant goddamn robot. (Really, did we need Amazing *and* Ultimate?)
Reenactment
Civil War Reenactment was the first thing I ever saw of Mr. Show, a mere two weeks before the series ended. My brother came in yelling "You have to see this! Put it on HBO!" As a result, I'm always going to love that bit even if it is in the weakest ep of the run.
No Boingo?
The absence of "Goodbye Goodbye" from the FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH soundtrack is really disheartening. The punched-up version from BOINGO ALIVE, with the wild horns and guitar and Danny Elfman's positively acid cheer, was the first thing I thought of when I saw the title. (But then I hadn't actually…
Oh yeah? Well, I'm a sushi bar.
As a whole, I think Homer the Sugar Baron is a stronger and funnier B-plot than the Mr. Sparkle box. That said, the Mr. Sparkle informational video itself makes me laugh harder than almost anything in series history; it still elicits a belly laugh over ten years later, and the first time I saw it I laughed so hard I…
D'Guy, why can't we do both? I mean, I could see Simon Pegg as the overworked ex-con and doting dad Scott Lang, and Frost could play Cassie!
Wright's OTHER comic movie
This looks like fun and I enjoyed the comics (though I didn't think they were pure, raw genius or anything) but I gotta say, I'm waaaay more interested in the oft-delayed Ant-Man project. (His absence from Avengers, along with Whedon's presence, pretty much killed my enthusiasm for that…
