So what was this thing about assembling a film canon?  Because I think I'd like to contribute, having seen a decent amount of (lesser known) foreign cinema.

Bitcoins seem more and more like a pyramid scheme for libertarians.

This reminds me of a time before social media ruined secret shows.

I spent much of my youth being frustrated about various epic fantasy series I started only to find out that they were just copying Lord of the Rings (and poorly).  Now there's sort of a similar thing happening with A Song of Ice and Fire.  In both cases, it seems like gestating authors really missed their truly…

The Malazan Book of the Fallen series is pretty damn good.  As far as epic fantasy goes, it's now largely divided into two camps: those inspired by Lord of the Rings, and those by A Song of Ice and Fire.  The former often suffers from being incredibly cheesy, extraordinarily naive about authority (sometimes to the…

He was also a pretty mediocre general that gets a lot of praise because he faced off against even shittier ones.

Are you an epic fantasy fan, or have you not read much?  Hell, I count myself a fantasy fan but still hate like 90% of the genre.

I remember pointing out in my big analysis of the various silly relationship stuff in season three that no character had an out-of-group romantic interest all season.  I thought that was unfortunate because storylines like that bring in guest stars, new comedic situations, and generally good material.  I think this…

I'm probably at a C.  After the fifth series, I would not have believed my opinion on Moffat currently.

Did I see Tobias Menzies too?  Edmure Tully!

Script idea: a historical epic about the initial Mongol invasion of central Asia / Russia, played straight as an "alien invasion" movie.

That's unfortunate.

I didn't think that season 4 of Community would get to the point where I thought it was just getting criticized for not having Harmon, but these last two episodes have been really, really, good.  I can't remember the last time the show balanced its characters so well, and there was some really funny stuff.

I really wish Ottawa had gone after him.  His offensive skills aren't top-notch anymore, but he's still an absolute monster of puck possession - largely because he's still as strong as a bull.

Ultimately, the reasons that Trudeau were alienating were also the reasons why he's looked back upon favourably: he dreamed big, and acted accordingly.  Only perhaps Pearson is his competition as  the most influential Canadian politician of the past 50 years, and his influence is largely felt at the core of Canadian…

People keep underestimating Trudeau, and he's going to keep winning.  To be honest, I find it really odd that people keep thinking his chances aren't anything less than great.

This trade deadline is absolutely bananas.

They missed a big opportunity here in not casting Jean Dujardin.

The show has a kind of wonderful identity crisis.  Canadian actors playing British characters in Generic City X (that is clearly Toronto).

When you're writing an article on forced abortions, it's hard not to try and lighten it up with a few labour jokes.
