Hey, Hey, We're the Spoilers!

I'm with Todd. "Schizogeny" is hand-down the worst episode of The X-Files. Runners-up include "Two Fathers," "Space," "Fearful Symmetry," "First Person Shooter," "Fight Club," and all of season 9. I usually pick "Two Fathers," because it's the nadir of the mythology episodes, but this is just straight up garbage.

You can own The Dude's cardigan, but you can't own this movie on Blu-Ray. What the fuck?

I can't imagine a better experience watching a film in a theater than The Red Shoes. Cardiff was amazing.

"Smokin' from Shootin'" is probably my favorite MMJ song, and the twofer of that song and "Touch Me… Part 2" is unstoppable, on the record and live. But Evil Urges isn't mixed very well, and its tracklisting is clumsy. It's a very good record, but overall it's hardly worthy of At Dawn, Z, and It Still Moves.

Jim James looks like a Muppet, too, especially when he's singing. It feels like this band is fated to work with the Muppets one day.

They actually showed Mohammed's image in the 2001 episode "Super Best Friends" (from the far superior fifth season), and nobody complained. It was only in the wake of the cartoonist controversy that Mohammed's image in Western popular culture became an issue. Of course, the events of the five years between the airing

Guillermo del Toro Has Evidently Reached the "Fuck It" Stage of Grief.
This stage is characterized by pressing forward with obviously doomed endeavors in the futile hope that somehow, just maybe, one will get another chance to recapture the lost magic of giant interdimensional gods frozen in the Antarctic.

Wallflower is right about the ending of "Orison;" it's one of the series' most powerful character moments.

"Kitsunegari" Is a Terrible Disappointment, Yeah.
But one-off writer Chip Johanessen- surprisingly- does a better job bringing back Donnie Pfaster in season 7's "Orison." Though that episode is still a retread of "Irresistible" in a lot of ways.

I love that Peter just did what we were all hoping would be the resolution of the sideways plot on Lost. At least somebody at Bad Robot was paying attention.

I honestly hope they don't restore the status quo until at least the middle of next season. Peter's absence could make for fascinating storytelling.

This show has a long history of ominous cliffhangers. I'm assuming everybody will be eaten alive by a giant lizard from a hellish Nth dimension tonight and the next season will take place in the dimension that exists inside the lizard's large intestine.

Hellboy 2 is, in my opinion, one of the most exciting, interesting action/adventure films ever made. It's clearly just as personal to del Toro as any of his other films; his personality is apparent in every frame.

Well, This Is a Fucking Tragedy.
Many of the most interesting films produced by the major studios in the last several years have come from Universal. Hellboy 2, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, Hot Fuzz, Drag Me to Hell, Funny People, Public Enemies… The last truly adventurous major studio seems to have closed up shop on
