Do you plan to accept money to review it?  Cause if not, I don't think anyone cares whether you or Reed or anyone else watches it.

Please come up with your own idea.  I don't think we have a Count yet do we?

Why not?  I've never had any interest in reading them, and I guess I wish they hadn't been made, but that's why I'm extremely interested in reading about them.  I'm never going to read them so I'm glad the AVclub is going to do that for me and give me some idea of what happened in them.  I read reviews of things on

I also accidentally scare my wife by walking up on her quietly, but her instinctive response is always to hit me right in the face, so now I NEVER walk up on her quietly.  She also finds the Ring terrifying, so if I did this to her I'd end up in the hospital.

Yeah, I think of this song as the beginning of the slide from grunge to whatever you want to call that crap those guys do. 

I can't believe no one is mentioning the fact that the guy who wrote Green Lantern, possible the worst comic movie of modern times, has been given the sequel to Blade Runner and now LOEG.  WTF!  Is there no accountability in this mad mad world?!  Can't this guy ruin some of his own ideas for a while, and let someone

The original fake cookie monster is soooo good at it (mixing cookie monster speak with actually insightful and interesting comments) that it feels incredibly jerky to try to bite his gimmick.

The show is pretty much totally based on responding to what's going on in the news, but the catch is they make jokes about the stories no one else would touch.  There is zero discussion of comedy craft.

Oh, is that the prevailing theory?  Cause in my neck of the woods we find him pretty funny in 2013.

That's my hatesong too!!!  That deserves a serious dissection.  While I agree that Black Hole Sun totally sucks, in can't begin to even explore the very edges of the suckitude that is Cumbersome.  That song would send me into fits of rage every time it came on the radio which, where I lived at least, was every third

He's actually very funny, if you like very mean humor.  Sample joke (paraphrased from memory, which I realize is any comedians worst nightmare) delivered to an actual oncologist:  What's the best thing about being an oncologist?  Meeting all the new people?

I was just scanning my Goodreads list for this year, and I have read a lot of books but I was kind of surprised to realize the only one that I REALLY loved was Perdido Street Station.  It's the first Mieville I've ever read, and I found it amazing.  I'm kind of mad I made it this far in life as a fantasy and science

I agree with this completely.  I still haven't watched a single episode of Enlightened (although now, due to this site, I plan too) and that's because all of the promotion I saw looked bland and boring.  I honestly thought of this as one of the most unappealing shows ever, and for a long time was baffled by the Av

But that's not Nick.  Nick and Lindsay really don't have anything in common, and she's never been attracted to him.  She's going to try to convince herself that that's the case, but she can't, because it isn't.  Nick isn't actually interested in her as a person at all, as we have or will see (can't remember when this

I'm pretty sure Paul Feig intended exactly what you're talking about.  The story is probably not going where you think it is. She did not do it because she found him appealing.  It's definitely a mistake.  I think Lindsay doesn't know what to say to fix his situation, doesn't know how to be ok with that when he is so

But he only gets serious with their band when Lindsay calls him out on saying he wants to be a drummer but never actually working at it.  He is normally a guy who just gets high and plays for fun, but doesn't actually work at getting better.  He tries to take it seriously for once, but expects just trying to bring him

I randomly caught two episodes when it first aired (Beers and Weirs was my first) and loved them then bought it when it came out on DVD.  At this point Ive probably watched the whole series 15-20 times (probably the most of any show ever, but it doesn't have that many episodes).  I remember it constantly changing

I think the production is amazing, but even if it's not, why is the boring discussion limited to production.  The songs are certainly not boring.  I mean, Daisy Glaze?  Not boring.

I was referring to this famous exchange (paraphrased from distant memory), which Hemingway credits as:
Fitzgerald (in breathless awe):  The rich are different than you and me.
Hemingway (jaded and cool):  Yeah, they have more money.

Most of the best art earns almost nothing during the author's life.  Even Fitzgerald died penniless, and didn't see his work re-discovered shortly after his death and go on to sell countless copies.  I for one am glad that his daughter, who had to suffer through a childhood full of all the downsides of having an
