We shouldn't treat Marlowe's objective reality with Kyd gloves…

I actually watched RIII today and was mostly fine with it. There were some differences, like Queen Margaret and the Duchess of York being merged (who cares?) and Rivers dying earlier (srsly, the movie really needed a sex scene involving Robert Downey Jr at that point) but on the whole the 30s fascist concept worked

"Literary = good"
- excerpt from 'My First High School Douchebag'

Funnily enough, Black Weed Doug reinvented himself in the late noughties and scored a minor role in The Hangover.

The Simpsons already did it, amirite?

Counterpoint: misanthropic Irishman spends all his time in a den of geekery while an autistic savant type guy tries to assist him and a youn-ish, romantically doomed woman looks on in tobacco-stained confusion. Let the Linehannigans commence!

mind = blown

'Gentler' in this context means 'considerably less funny'
Blackadder is less farcical in that some of its humour is predicated on character or vaguely sophisticated wordplay, or insults. Thin Blue Line is basically Allo Allo for people who hate the French.

Yeah, this sounds a lot like the early SF stuff TP did (Strata, Dark Side of the Sun) in that the world doesn't really seem to gel with the characters and plot. Furthermore, even though I don't really read this kind of stuff, I can see that the axis-of-Earths concept is pretty common (even Douglas Adams used it in

I so wish Pterry hadn't peaked with Night Watch. While that was an awesome book (syllabus material, IMHO) it was the last of the Pratchett greats. I haven't read Snuff and only skimmed Unseen Academicals because it was a Christmas present, but I don't want my last new experience of him to be so influenced by the whole

Futurama or gtfo.

I probably read too much into it at the time, but I assumed Fry would know that 15 years was a helluva long time for a stray dog to live in NYC. Of course, we know that Seymour had a steady diet leftover pizza and whatever rodents infected Panucci's place, but Fry probably thought that a loving family had taken him

I beg to differ. This definitely will taint Jurassic Bark. Seymour doesn't fucking TALK, or sip martinis, or do anything other than be a dog. Any voice actor doing this would be an insult, but the fact that this guy is so unpopular round here exacerbates this somewhat. I don't particularly loathe McFarlane, but the

Well, comedy without an aspect of tragedy would just be a waste of time, so yes. For instance, I don't think Futurama would be as awesome as it is if Fry wasn't doomed to be forever separated from his friends, family and dog. The fact that he basically doesn't give a shit except for maybe two/three episodes (Luck of

Not that I despise The Incredibles or anything, but I'd kinda prefer that ending to be the actual ending of the whole thing. Ironically promising a sequel loses all of its power when you actually make the frigging sequel. 
On another note, Cars 1 had SO many loose ends that could only be tied up by a celebrity of a
