This fighter's got tremendous skills, Casey!

Yeah, that's a rebound.

One of these fighters is going to win this bout, and the other will almost CERTAINLY lose!

I can see where Dana was coming from, but that doesn't make her plan any less stupid. Similarly, if there's a bee on my arm, I'm not going to hit it with a hammer.

What makes that episode magical is that everyone else's reactions to Cut Man are also amazing, from Dan and Casey's "let's just get through this" to Dana's impending panic attack to Jeremy's line about Atlantic City.

Yeah, Jeremy's actions were dumb, but they were kinda "understandably dumb." You disliked his lies, but his discomfort (and ignorance) were well-established and entirely in-character. And he paid for it.

This is all well and good, but really the first half of Season 2 is just a countdown to Chuck "Cut Man" Kimmel. 

Wait, what?

All in good time. Let's not forget that Smith's kids are very likely being raised Scientologists.

It's really really cheesey, but I gotta admit that I love the scene with Patrick Wayne in "The Searchers." Watching the elder Wayne and his experienced supporting cast bat the younger Wayne around like a three-legged mouse always gets a smile out of me. And it's a welcome smile, considering what the rest of the…

"Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes" really deserves some discussion. It took decades' of stories and characters, then distilled their essence into crisp, 22 minute episodes with great visual style and an excellent sense of continuity. 

I watched a lot of episodes of a densely-packed show in a short period of time in between work and sleep, how is that pretent—- oh wait, is this one of those joke avatars? I dunno, dude. Calling everyone pretentious doesn't really have the same "zing" as finding and reposting vaguely inappropriate YouTube comments.

GOB's mouse-behind-the-ear illusion is an instant classic, and perfectly in character.

One of my favorite anthologies is a series called "Songs The Cramps Taught Us," in which I've been routinely amazed at how many weird-ass tunes that I thought were punk originals were actually rock songs from the fifties or early sixties.

Lose the "directed by so and so" angle. Having Nolan or Blomkamp as a director is nothing like "Abramizing" it.

Absolutely. I adore all of the Cramps' covers for their ability to pull all the sex that's (just barely) hidden in classic rock and push it to the forefront, but I equally love how the Ramones how the Ramones took some of those same songs and amped up the pure "rock."

It's tough to beat the classics.

Good god, The Ramones' version of "Surfin' Bird" is a thing of beauty. It's no small praise to say that Joey out-did even Lux Interior's version. 

I've liked a decent amount of stuff Johns has done, but I've also disliked an equal amount. I could say something similar about Bendis, but unlike Bendis, Johns' good stuff was never really good enough to overpower the bad.

DC/Warner Bros need to find a way to make Superman movies (or at least TV episodes) out of Moore's "Supreme" run, possibly the best Superman stories ever written.
