Hopefully played by The Undertaker, complete with the organ music.

I can't believe this is getting an adaptation right now. I love the comic, but it seems like the most "90s edgy" thing ever. The next thing I'll learn is that all the hip kids are listening to Pantera and Alice in Chains.

True! On repeat viewings, I notice all the neat little details that I missed the first times because I was too busy cowering in terror.

The original Dragon Gate Inn - This is the third King Hu movie I've seen and the first one I've really loved: I've found Come Drink With Me to be no more than 'quite enjoyable' and Touch of Zen rather boring despite some really beautiful scenes, although I have a feeling that if I revisited those movies now I would

I remember watching second season of 24 when I was like 12, and I remember that I was absolutely fucking floored that just for once, an American action hero actually failed at saving people in a big way. That show was too action-packed anyway to actually deal with the ramifications of that sorta thing…

To be fair, the interviewee does not be thrilled with this whole 'sex' thing. I would feel the same about a song about a thing that I don't care for, like fishing, conservative radio talk shows, football matches or sex.

The way I see it, Pennsatucky was someone who was ready to adopt any persona and believe in it as long as it got her accepted. After she got beat down by Piper, she no longer had any clout among the white trash girls and could not play the messiah role anymore, so she was quick to reinvent herself again - and doing

No singing, but there will be some cringey sitcom plots.

I hope Ryback will enjoy his stint in TNA.

It shouldn't be surprising that they did not have strong ideas for season three. The first two seasons covered an insane amount of story.

They turned what was a fairly one-dimensional character in season one into one of the most enjoyable, so that's a good thing. But it was inconsistent with what they were doing previously, I think.

The last episode of season three honestly felt like a series finale to me; all the cliffhangers involved people I don't give a shit about (except for Sophia) .

Any word if Natasha Lyonne is coming back?

I thought Pennsatucky in season three was a fine character, but not the same as she was in season one and two, and I don't mean that in a good way. I liked the idea of making her more likable, but turning a murderer to a person who did not even entertain the possibility of violent revenge on the man who raped her.

The most horrifying thing I've read is still Sarah Kane's Blasted (and I've read for a course on a Catholic university!). I can't imagine watching it actually performed on stage (or, for that matter, performing it!)

Just spent an hour reading about Lord Horror. Now I'm not sure if I really want to read it or really DON"T want to read it.

The guy had all the good points, but then he used the "SJW" term and he lost. It's the new Godwin's Law.

He has a character now! His delivery is still a bit stilted, but he'll overcome that soon I think. He's over as hell and seems to enjoy himself immensely, and that's a great position to improve your craft.

Gaiman somehow works for me in any other format than prose. I thought Sandman was amazing, but every novel I've read of him seemed to me like a retread of ideas from that comic book, but played for mild drama and toothless comedy instead of horror. There's this somewhat smug writing style that British humorous writers

Nah, I'm too worn out by that point. But I don't want to be a downer, I'm cautiously optimistic that I will beat this!
