Well, no matter which scene from any Michael Bay movie you're thinking of, my point still stands. It's all the same overblown crap. Pretty lighting doesn't make it any less of a shitfest.

Tom, in regards to those lighting techniques: I think it has more to do with the subject matter of the film than anything. It can be effective in really intimate scenes, not overblown fight sequences featuring giant CGI robots.

Yes, padrock. That's exactly what made this such a tense experience. Mr. D'Angelo can say all he wants about natural cuts in real life and debunk the "documentary-like" argument, but that doesn't take away from the visceral thrill of these scenes.

The concept of the Guigirdlitar makes me giggle like nothing else.

Don't forget the adaptation of King's upcoming sequel: "Put-Upon-Everyman vs. The Monorail."

"I have Pop-pop in the attic."
"The mere fact that you call making love 'Pop-pop' tells me you're not ready."

Dude get outta here, I gotta make a Count Dooku!

I have seen everything.

The Venture Bros. has become one of those shows where if I encounter someone who doesn't like it, I have to fight the urge to punch them in the face.

They don't call it the new Golden Age of TV for nothing.

Switch Tim & Eric and Metalocalypse and we're simpatico.

Todd, what were the six shows that just missed?

I think it's coming back this summer. So, chin up.
