There was a time when many HDTVs were equipped with dual tuners and could be split in half. I never saw six, though. As I understand it, that's very difficult to find now. It seems like a perfectly logical use of the space. Most TVs just cheaped out on the tuners and features. Mine could do it, but only if one signal…

Shingo Yamamoto! That guy was my favorite; he always competed in his work uniform.

Besides, the point of these competitions (going back to the Japanese one) has always been to beat the course, not the fellow competitors. The camaraderie among the participants is evidence of this. Britten beat the course; he should get the prize. To be left with nothing just seems crappy on the part of the show.

Fair enough. I understand mine is the minority opinion on this, but like I said, it just really didn't work for me.

I saw Batman taking the fall for Dent as more about keeping Gotham together, in that the city couldn't handle it if it was found out that Dent was nuts. I would've bought that if the people had blown up the boats - but they didn't. It was a clear sign that the people weren't ruled by fear and distrust. The people…

I didn't see Southpaw. I thought the headline was referring to Moonlight Mile. I guess that was just his fiance who died, though. He also met a thin blondish woman who helped him through is grief in that movie too.

It's a backhoe. I confirmed this with my 2-year old; he knows construction equipment.

I thought the ending of the Dark Knight was worse. Everything in the movie lead to the boats blowing up. Had they done so Batman taking the fall would've actually made sense. As it was, the boats didn't explode, Gotham wasn't really hopeless and so Batman taking the fall was just a plot device for the next movie.…

I prefer The Thing From Another World. I like the original The Fly better too.

Man, I sure hope not.

This was really disappointing to me. The first episode felt pretty light considering they had so many characters to introduce. That second montage really didn't work for me at all. The second episode started off better, but by the third or fourth time they had a deadline and vote it just felt like a waste of runtime.…

Fair-to-middling, in my opinion. I still don't understand the fawning praise for it.

Do you know the French film, The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie? When
I first heard that title, I thought, “Finally, someone’s going to tell the truth about the bourgeoisie.” What a disappointment! It would be hard to imagine a less fair or accurate portrait.

Some of the plot description reminds me of Breaking the Waves. Its final image was pretty incredible too.

I saw It Follows. That didn't happen. Also, the "monster" is equal opportunity - it kills men and women.

I really liked how it subverted my expectations. Based on the set-up, I expected Holly to solve the wrongful death of his friend and possibly expose the corrupt work of the police. I figured he'd get the girl too. Oh boy, I couldn't have been more wrong. It's just wonderful.

If 1 out of every 8 comedians (or 12.5%) is Black that's only slightly off the census #s of Black individuals in the US (13.2%). Maybe it's not as bad as it seems?

I haven't seen the movie, but the idea of Cobain mocking Cornell, who is a much better vocalist than Cobain, is pretty ridiculous.

My wife regularly forgets to fast forward when watching something on the DVR.

He was a problem for me watching the show. The premise sounded funny, but I've never found him to be anything but annoying. Schall too, really (Bob's Burgers mostly excluded).
