Yeah the darkness can be rough. I saw "The Lego Movie" recently and for some reason or another ended up being a 3D screening, and the screen got so dark it was distracting. I kept taking off the glasses to see the bright colors and thinking "that's the movie I wanna be seeing". Cameron was aware of this an compensated…

Stupid as fuck but I guess it's a legitimate term used by the scientific community or something, so Cameron was trying to be authentic. However to moviegoers it sounded like the dumbest fucking name in the world. Probably shoulda just left it nameless.

Yep, I agree, he writes some pretty bad dialogue from time to time, and it's definitely gotten worse the past few movies. I still think he's a good scriptwriter though in other aspects…he usually gives the characters some dimension, structures his movies well, and like you said, he can generally spin a pretty darn…

Yeah, it's not the best small-screen movie, that's for sure. Frankly I was shocked when the Blu-Ray became the fastest selling ever within days of it's release. But I dunno, I've seen on TV a few times since I saw it in the theater, and I can still enjoy a lot great scenes the movie has, even if the cringey dialogue…

I rarely see Cameron love here, but I'll take your word for it. Most people seem to just consider him like George Lucas or some shit now, which is imo laughable, but whatever.

No, I don't believe he's ever made a bad movie. I don't think he's ever made an even mediocre movie. And hey, we all have our tastes, but I think you'd find that popular opinion says that "Terminator", "Aliens" and "Terminator 2" are considered classics and regarded as some of the best sci-fi action films ever made,…

Some parts looked better than others, but I found for the most part the CGI characters were actually believable as people inhabiting the real world. I mean shit, audiences bought a movie which had large chunks of pure CGI as a live-action film, so the CGI was a pretty big success in that regard.

As much as I enjoyed Avatar, I'm also still pretty baffled by it's unparalleled success. Especially when weird looking sci-fi movies almost always seem to fail at the box office, and this one starred fucking CGI blue people.

I really don't care what anyone says, Avatar was a solid movie and a one-of-a-kind cinematic experience. That's so fucking rare these days that, to me, it counts for quite a bit. Yes we all know the movie is flawed…predictable familiar plot, cheesy dialogue, not the most two-dimensional characters, etc, but fuck if it…

Right, I should have probably pointed out that all of Chris McKennas episodes were co-written with his brother Matt, who left when Chris did but came back for this season (he wrote "Poltergasm", probably the seasons best ep). In the commentaries though they'd always credit the other one as being the funny one, which I…

Shit I think that's another callback too…I'm pretty sure they used the same music for the "Emotional Difficulties" card as they did for the similar bits in "Bar Mitzvah Hustle", where Steve fell out of the window while acting out the scene and then we get the "Technical Difficulties" card.

Season 8 was good, but it had it's issues too. "Baby Franny", "For Black Eyes Only", and "The Boring Identity" are pretty shitty episodes. "Killer Vacation" and "Love, AD Style" are kinda meh too. Yeah all the rest range from good to great, but it's not nearly as flawless as some of the earlier seasons.

Hayleys trip was an awesome gag. At first I was a bit confused, thinking it was an extremely weird tangent for the show to go on…but I can't believe I didn't see the punchline coming of it leading her right to Rogers attic. The surprise fucking killed me. They actually did a similar joke though way back in season 3's…

I thought the reason this was an A episode WAS because it not only had the jokes, but it had a great story to boot that was typically absurd but very fun, entertaining, and most of all original. The way it also combined the character dynamics of Steve and Hayley into the main conflict was to me, indicative of some…

I don't actively hate FG or anything, I just think it sucks now and has sucked for a long time. I'll still freely admit to anyone and everyone that the first three seasons are all fantastic works of comedy, but to me the show lost something on it's return, was never the same, and just continued to get different and…

"It's too early to speculate whether Steve is dead or alive. But when we come back, it won't be."

And hopefully the return of Sinbad, yo! Presumably in ghost form. Can't wait…love that a floating time-line animated sitcom has actually had the balls to do an ongoing storyline for 5 seasons in a row (remember it all began with Hayley and Reginald in season 5). Has an animated show (comedy) ever really done something…

Yeah, great news indeed. I just watched "Naked To The Limit, One More Time" again a little while ago…man I had forgotten how great that episode was. Looking forward to rewatching the rest soon.

Yep, one more episode and then a new episode of American Dad! shall never air on FOX again. Pretty fucking sad if you ask me. But it is remarkable how far this show has come…it was unanimously hated upon it's premiere by both fans AND critics, and the first few episodes to follow didn't help much. But American Dad had…

I generally find Kevins reviews to be good and fairly graded, if occasionally a touch low, but this just gotta be one of those instances where I have to vehemently disagree. This was easily one of the best episodes of the season, as it had a fantastic plot unlike anything AD has ever done, an extremely funny and…
