Having not found the time or inclination to jump on the AD bandwagon yet (hey, we all have cultural blind spots; I'll get to it eventually), I'm pretty amused by all the sturm und drang over the new AD that everyone so desperately wanted not being as good as they so desperately wanted it to be.  I know I'd be bummed…

No, this is good.  It will force people to buy more DVDs.  And Joss should be freed up by Marvel to do another Firefly movie around 2026.  The continuing adventures of a bunch of old people and a hot middle aged crazy woman who lives life barefoot.

All those shows you mention have one of two things in common: they were actually good, or I didn't see them.  Another thing they all have in common is existing before snarky internet comments.

Just so everyone knows, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT expires in a week. 

Somewhere in this very good B-movie is a great movie that was begging to be made. Kurt Russell is acting in that movie. He's really an underrated actor. His BTINLC performance should placed in the Library of Congress and preserved for all time, and that the same guy could do that part and Macready in The Thing is…

No, but it was all done in one shot.

Pretty sure if you name check one of the most admired films of the past decade as your title that your show should not, at the very least, suck.  Just FYI.

Really?  Because I'm assuming that every character is the child of a man.

So I've been sort of hate-reading by coming here every week, rather than actually suffering through watching.  But last night there was nothing on when I decided to tub it at 9.58 pm, so I watched the first episode since I quit halfway through episode two.  I was very interested in this review, because I figured it…

I would totally watch a reboot of the sitcom MY TWO DADS with Wil, Hannibal and Abigail.  They all move to NYC, get a lofty apartment together, and Wil works while Hannibal stays home, keeps house, and serves them vagrants for dinner each night.  The laugh track would exceptional during the dinner scenes.

I have not been watching this show, and the mere 20 comments here might indicate neither are others.  I have, however, been coming here every week to check out the reviews, in sort of a hate-read-watch kind of way.   And today I was rewarded for that with one of the all time great links in internet history. Madeline…

Also, subtitled films have, on average, far more naked people than your average American movie.  So that's a real bonus for being willing to read.

Mads is in any number of great subtitled films that will help break you of your fear of subtitles.  Check out a movie called The Hunt from Denmark.

Go watch Time Crimes on Netflix.  You will completely get over any aversion to subtitles you may have by the time that is over.  Another good one to break you of subtitle fear: Let The Right One In, the vampire movie from somewhere in Scandinavia. The American remake, Let Me In, is also good, but the original is…

Anyone else think this is it for Matt Smith?  I know they have been saying he's back for next season, but could that be misdirect?  I keep wondering if this has all been setup for the first female Doctor.

Was Joss responsible for the multiple deaths and resurrections of the non-Darlene daughter? I could never get the black magic that was working on her straight.

Exactly, Comrade. I mean, it's not like the odds on Favreau even being alive for another go around are better than 50/50.

I strongly believe they could revitalize the show by sticking to the 24 hour real time structure, but then air the episodes at 2x speed. A squeaky voiced Jack Bauer screeching, "WHERE IS THE BOMB?" in an Alvin and the Chipmunks voice would get me to watch.

And I gotta say it: Happy living in Iron Man 3 kind of made me think they are
never going to kill anyone ever in these Marvel movies(unless, of course, Natalie Portman
doesn't want to make any more, but the blatant set up for her death in
the trailer makes me think it's a bait and switch).

Well, none.  But apparently there were no deaths in The Avengers, so maybe Joss is mellowing with age.
