Realistic?
We are talking about the same films that featured two men fighting a few feet away from a giant microwave transmitter that was allegedly vaporizing any liquid that came within like 100 feet of it, right?

I'm turning over on it a little bit just cause I don't think S2 is nearly as funny as S1.

Hamm
Hamm is a better comedic actor than either Black or Dillon. Surprised he wouldn't cast him for the Dillon role.

@ Lincoln — That's like one of those old school dirtbikes, I think.

I used to think that most of that loudness war stuff was overhyped nonsense spouted off by music nerds and record-store clerks. Then I read Perfecting Sound Forever, listened to the examples and actually started paying attention to what was going on, and realized that the loudness war stuff is true, accurate and makes

No, the one about having a showdown with M. Perry in an arena.

Hey, thanks for the spoiler, DOM!

I'm on PS3, leeharvey. As I mentioned below, it seems to perform just slightly worse than F3 for me.

Really loving this one
I'm kind of surprised at the various reactions to this game that I've been hearing so far. Personally, I'm loving it. I'm playing the PS3 version, probably about 15 hours in or so. It's slightly buggier than F3, but it's certainly not unplayable at all. The story is vastly superior, I think it

Johnny Guitar's the one that keeps getting stuck in my head.

@ Don Cab — That online viral stealth marketing BS they did for Blair Witch inadvertently ruined that film for me. One of my co-workers at the time had seen some "documentary" about the whole thing on Sci-Fi channel (or Spike or some cable bullshit) and totally bought into it all. Though I never saw it, she told me

The whole beauty of PD, though, was that due to the nature of the job, the cast could rotate in and out as they pleased. Look at Jane Lynch's character on the show; it was totally believable (and it worked) when they brought in Coolidge and Mulally as her replacements. Adam Scott's character could have landed a minor

@ Arsenio — It is kind of weird how part of CBS's success stems from them not embracing the new technology. I, for one, am at least partly guilty of contributing to their ratings. I watch both Community and Big Bang Theory so now that they're up against each other, I have to make a decision as to what to watch (I

I watched Outsourced for the first time last night. I didn't think it was nearly as bad as I suspected it might be, but it wasn't that great either. I'll agree with Evan that I really dislike the main character; I think he's just really miscast. The Indian actors are all pretty good, but he's way off.

I found the Duhamel thing amusing as a few weeks ago when the ads for "Life As We Know It" started appearing in the subway, I felt really, really, really bad that Olyphant was in some direly shitty rom-com with K Heigl.

I barely made it through Covenant when I was younger; I read it at like 14 or so and the rape really freaked me out.

Surprised no one mentioned Don Draper either. I mean, he's a shitty dad, was a shitty husband, cheated all the time, sexually assaulted another man's wife, deserted the army, etc., etc.

I'm also pretty sure that the term "on fire" also wasn't originated by NBA Jam as the review also implies.

I concur. This was one of the first 30 Rock's in some time that I've whole-heartedly enjoyed. Grammer was particularly good.

They should get Deep Roy to play all the dwarves, and have Danny McBride play Gandalf the Motherfuckin' Grey.
