See, hit literally thinks you're an idiot if you still enjoy this show.  It all dates back several months to a Chuck Klosterman Grantland article where Klosterman wrote about his preference for Breaking Bad over The Wire (and Mad Men and The Sopranos).  It seems reading this broke Whitlock's brain (even more).

Jason Whitlock says you and anyone else who enjoys this show are the scum of the earth and owe David Simon an apology.

I never figured a Chuck Klosterman article about BB would turn Whitlock into a whining idiot.

A lot of people complain how 3D sucks because it always makes the screen too dim.  Those people are correct.

Woah, hive mind.

Are you a Primus fan, D'Angelo?  "Whatever happened to Lee Van Cleef?  Whatever happened to Lee?"

Great Trailer
I thought the trailer did an excellent job of conveying in a few minutes everything the movie attempted to convey over several hours. I didn't hate the movie or anything and I'm glad I saw it but I don't think I'd revisit it any time soon.

Do you realize
that a robot just sang a love song to a turtle?

American Beauty
The album, not the movie. My senior year of college I feel like I essentially had the same epiphany as Lindsay Weir in the last episode of Freaks and Geeks. Not that I started spinning around in my room and following jam bands on the road, but listening to those songs was the first step on a road to

"God"
"Long stretches without anything resembling a joke"? As someone who grew up Catholic I thought nearly every second of that thing (with the possible exception of the talk with the mom at the end) was hilarious.

Freaks and Geeks
Also the Grateful Dead songs they chose (Ripple and Box of Rain) both address the the kind of existential angst brought on by seeing her grandma die as she tried to explain to Sam in the first episode (why she became a "freak" in the first place). I thought it was the perfect soundtrack to bring some

Timothy Spall.

Insidious, Bridesmaids, X-Men
2011: The Year of Rose Byrne! I'm all for it.

I really liked Cabin Fever
Yes, I am ashamed.

I guess I could understand how smart people could enjoy Sleepy Hollow, though I respectfully disagree. Love for Big Fish, however, I cannot understand.

Do careers count?
I like to pretend the following bodies of work don't exist:
Tim Burton post-Ed Wood (though I keep hearing Mars Attacks is worth revisiting)
Weezer post-Pinkerton
Against Me! post-As the Eternal Cowboy
Dennis/Frank Miller post-9/11
Johnny Depp post-Once Upon A Time In Mexico (guilty pleasure. I fucking

I sense Saul Goodman crossover potential
There's a strip mall, cheesy commercials, and Bob Odenkirk. Let it happen, AMC!

I liked Dino-Riders but I could never find it on tv (though I definitely had the Deinonychus toy). I was more of a Dinosaucers kid. It had talking alien dinosaurs fighting in their dinosaur-shaped spaceships plus a great opening theme.

Zach Handlen
You answered this question just about exactly the same as I would have (though yours was probably better written). I bet you spent your Thanksgivings glued to Comedy Central too.

Tiger LCD games fuck yeah!
Swamp Thing was the first (FAIL cancerAIDS blah blah blah…) video game I ever owned, followed by several Ninja Turtles titles (including Ninja Turtles Basketball). This makes me happy.
