Truth. If Joss made a show with Acker in the lead, I would jack someone's Nielson Box and show up every single week.

HEY FRINGE FOLKS

This came out like 3 days ago. You're only reporting it now? Seeing a Fringe News Update almost gave me a heart attack!

Cabin in the Woods! WOOOOO!

Yeah, I know what they were a reference to, and what they were doing, I just wonder about their role int he whole thing, since presumably they're more aware of themselves and their surroundings than most of the creatures.

@avclub-e076c5dce6bd4d04f01a12ec0697a75b:disqus Well, there is stuff like this: http://www.tvwise.co.uk/201…

A lot of people are like "We want 22 episodes, because then there can be a season six!" I can only speak for myself, but I don't want a season six at all, and neither does the cast, most of whom have said that the show should end after Season 5 lest it overstay its welcome. I think 13 episodes is the perfect amount…

So, any ideas what the line about how they "haven't had a glitch since '98" was in reference to?

That's why her name didn't appear in the opening credits, but there's no other reason for it to be first in the closing ones.

Well, it's a metaphor, sure, but that doesn't mean it needs to apply to every single aspect of the film. In the movie, they are still literal giant ancient gods, so yes, they can still kill every living thing on the planet and be a metaphor.

Also, "The director is LITERALLY the director."

I think they're definitely supposed to represent the American moviegoing audience as a whole. They want to see the same people doing the same old things, getting killed in the same old ways, in that same old place. I'm not sure how far that metaphor extends into the fact that the Ancient Ones rise at the end and…

I imagine the film was probably something like The Ring? But I don't know what creature(s) from the climax that would have summoned.

But…isn't that kind of the point?

Once I linked the deaths to the idea of quantum entanglement, which is something Fringe uses often as an explanation for these types of things, I went with it just fine.

A lot of people seem concerned about Dana not actually being a virgin, because they mentioned the affair with her professor and she seemed to deny that she was a virgin whenever it was brought up. I'm just going to through this idea out there: she's technically a virgin, in that she's never had actual sex, but she's…

I understand the containment of creatures in that whole underground fortress, but what's the deal with the humans? The doll-mask people were, I assume, humans, so what's up with them being locked in a glass cell with the others?

Anybody else want to see a version of this movie for every one of the instigators found in the cellar (the spherical device/amulet/film strip/skull thing)? I really really do.

Well, they said he never got killed when they showed him up and walking around. I'm coming to that conclusion because he's UP AND WALKING AROUND.

"i'm kind of confused on who broyles actually is cause i remember the episode last season when the real alt-broyles was killed. so he really isnt a mole because he isnt the real alt-broyles. anyone else thinking the same thing"
God dammit people, the timeline was rewritten and he didn't die in this one. Are you not…
