Good to hear. Frankly, it's about the only one out of this particular bunch that looks interesting enough to seek out.

@avclub-5125ad2b58405bb877649bbea104f866:disqus : That was actually in the book—Rorschach had lifts in his shoes.

I doubt that that will happen. Countless graphic novels and trade paperbacks of comics have gone in and out of print during the quarter-century-plus that Watchmen has been in print—remarkable for any book, let alone comics—and part of the reason for the original book's popularity has been its existence on numerous…

I'll give points to Cooke for giving Silhouette more attention; her story in the original comic could be written on the back of a postcard with plenty of room for the address. Also for Cooke (and Conner) for doing a Silk Spectre story that didn't revolve around her relationship with a male superhero.

Alice Cooper told a similar story about himself, back during his heyday in the seventies. He'd go to a ball game without makeup and his hair up in his hat, and hang out for a bit, and start to get bored; he'd let his hair down, then start singing "Dead Babies"…

I may be one of the few SF fans who didn't particularly like the book, or  at least thought that it was overrated.

Given that Sheen was basically a Mary Sue for Oliver Stone in Wall Street and Platoon, I'm expecting to see Stone announce Platoon II, in which Chris Taylor is now a Pentagon general who's trying to cover up sexual assault in the military. (P.S. Not tying Stone in with sexual assault specifically, just that he's…

It's too late. I've seen everything.

IIRC, he'd do an OK show, then one where he totally blew it, and then after the inevitable "Sheen's downward slide continues", pull it together and do another OK show—and by OK I don't mean actually funny, but crowd-pleasing.

@avclub-d72f705337e5adcf7e33ec0381c5f5b2:disqus : Because there aren't that many nut jobs of either gender in Hollywood.

Sloppy seconds?

"Loved you in Wall Street!"

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrIIIIIIIIIIIIIco

You must have absolutely no old people as Facebook friends. They love that shit.

I don't know that Mila is necessarily in the "million bucks per episode" club; she's probably looking at the huge pile of money on one side and the leering demi-goblin on the other and thinking, "Well, I've done worse."

In two months, tops, Letterman will be making jokes about Sheen firing actresses that he hasn't even hired yet. Very rapidly diminishing returns on that tactic.

I'm pretty sure that Fox is openly contemptuous of its viewership, and has been for some time. "You like this show? Ha ha fuck you, it's cancelled! Here's some shit instead from a guy who was only (mildly) interesting when he was melting down in public. Here's ninety fuckin' episodes of it. Open wide, bitches, we…

Is J-Lo any better or worse than the people who sell this guy fancy clothes, cars, food, etc?

His hat is a bird, your arguments are irrelevant.

I'd forgotten how much I missed Gilbert Gottfried. (Somewhere in the deep negative numbers.)
