All I knew about this movie before reading this review…
Was that the poster makes it look fucking badass. I mean, look at this thing:

"a notarized confession and photos of him actually pulling the trigger"
and an alternate wording for the assassination: "Mack Whacks Rival of Tupac"

Quick, someone make a joke involving "Hear me now und believe me later," and the Hans und Franz triumvirate of catchphrases will be complete, allowing us to proceed to the next level with maximum experience points.

"G.I.R.L.I.E. Men"
Far worse than Schwarzenegger's adoption of "the Governator" is his adoption (misappropriation?) of lines from a lame Saturday Night Live sketch from 20 years that wasn't even precisely about him. Am I to assume that he will also be "pumping up" the amount of justice on the wild streets of…

OK, that makes sense.

I agree, for the most part. But when the game shifted from story/atmosphere to actual gameplay, it kind of broke down for me. Suddenly I felt like I was playing the first Max Payne game or something. It was a good 3rd person shooter, and the light-as-a-weapon gimmick was well-implemented , but it didn't really fit the…

Alan Wake was pretty good but its two critical failures were

Did he mean to write "upgraded" rather than "activated"? Passive powers aren't typically activated, because a passive power is always active.

"Passive powers, such as an enemy proximity alarm, can be activated over time. "
What does this mean?

Indeed. I cannot stress how amazing the Diceman's wikipedia photo is. I was just joshing before, but this is different. I formally demand that the photo be used as the go-to photo for any and all ADC-related news items. In fact, what am I say? It should replace the photo in the current item and all prior items. I'm…

Because you reminded me that that is, in fact, the thing that Andrew Dice Clay says, all is forgiven.

"because of course it does"
Phrase is getting played out.

I dunno. I'm not fond of this "Future - Rama."

Good stuff that I've watched (or re-watched) on Netflix streaming (off the top of my head): Party Down, Arrested Development, Louie, a Louis CK: Chewed Up, Galactica, Exit Through the Gift Shop, Taxi Driver, Eternal Sunshine, 30 Rock, Jackie Brown, Kurosowa films(yes, I'm aware this will move to Hulu Plus…

I'm assuming you mean "university library," since you know that pitchfork is a thing.

"I guess we have to start making original series now, too, instead of just showing action movies from 8 years ago that you forgot existed. *sigh* But Party Down was good, am I right? Remember the 'I wanna dip my balls in it' guy? We got him. Or, um, had him."

Oh, Mr. Sarcastic Gimmick Poster, you and I both know that if Samuel L. Pitchfork, Owner and Editor-in-Chief, called you up tomorrow and offered you a job reposting the latest Beach House concert dates, you'd take it in a heartbeat.

The Supreme Court handed the executive branch a ton of power long before Cheney came along.

Cheney as "evil mastermind"
This could be good, as long as it avoids the "Cheney as Galactic Emperor-esque evil genius" trope. The evidence is pretty clear that while Cheney was kinda evil, he was mostly just a gigantic fuck-up and all around failure at life who sort of fell over backward into plum positions, in a…

Well, he's a big guy and he's good with knots.
