I'm obsessed with the clip in the commercial where a woman says, "Dat's urban legend!" in basically the same voice Paul Scheer used for Banksy on a live Comedy Bang Bang.

I was assured by a famous detective their meat was only of the highest quality! If I can't trust a detective to make my dietary decisions, who can I trust?

One opened by my workplace about a year and a half ago. I take this one piece of anecdotal evidence to mean they're doing better than ever.

Whenever Cleatus the dancing robot isn't on screen, people should be asking, "Where's Cleatus the dancing robot?"

The thing about getting mad at the Parsons win is most of the people he's keeping out are as bad or worse options. Don Cheadle for House of Lies? Matt LeBlanc for Episodes? Ricky Gervais for Derek?

It was even weirder because it specifically said "has written for the revived version," which makes it sound like he's not currently working there (and in fact, the boss).

Couch in the kitchen? Must be nice!

It reminded me a bit of the most recent Sherlock premiere, where a running subplot existed mostly to comment on the fandom.

Definitely the lion's share should be Asgard and Asgard-adjacent. But at a certain point, it really seems like Thor on Earth is only ever cleaning up his own people's messes. I'd like a brief head nod to him being a proper Midgard superhero beyond his involvement in an Avengers crisis every three years. Ten minutes

Exactly this. I've been wanting Thor to fight something not totally rooted in the Nine Realms (also Iron Man to fight something not of the military-industrial complex). Absorbing Man has a great schtick, but not a particularly deep character, so he'd be a great Batroc-style early fight scene.

He was excellent as Batman, though I guess that Batman was also fairly GOB-y. He did as well as he could in Up All Night as a very un-GOB-like guy, but he was given nothing to work with.

There was one moment where Nebula strode out of a room with that funky tall Karen Gillan gait that made me appreciate she was there despite everything else I normally like about her being hidden by the role.

I doubt many people noticed Lee Pace under the make-up, hood and relatively thin character in Guardians. He did a great job, and the character served his purpose amply, but it's maybe the eighth or ninth most notable performance in the movie.

I think that was only true in the Flashpoint universe. I did not read it, so the only other thing I know is Batman's dad was Batman.

They didn't have enough Yelp reviews.

Potentially, yeah. I imagine the big sticking points will be negotiating which of them gets what cut. Disney might want to wait so they don't have to share as much profit or it might be more important to them to promote the new films now. Fox might want the bigger money now or they might want to do the least amount of

Fox has distribution rights on Star Wars (IV) forever. They have distribution on V and VI (and I, II, & III but who cares) until 2020. Disney has the rights to make new Star Wars movies and all the merchandising rights. Fox makes money as long as people buy the DVDs of and go to theatrical re-releases of the old ones.

It's kind of weird for the title of a movie where Today keeps repeating to be about being on the edge of Tomorrow, because he mostly isn't. It's like calling Groundhog's Day "It's Almost The Day After Groundhog's Day."

Also, make sure you live in the earliest possible time zone in the country that said piece of culture comes out in first. This is why I had to move back and forth across the Atlantic and from New York to LA over and over this year.

Ariana Grande is a secret 80-year-old. She has jumped bodies four times already, and she will jump again.
