I was surprised Zack H. didn't comment on how weird and random it was for Daryl to say, "Wait…" and have everyone hang back and risk getting bitten… all for the sake of the audience getting to see Tyreese emerge, apparently unscathed. It was unlikely he would emerge with nary a scratch, but the Governor certainly

I think he was pretty much an extra that they simply had to give a name to so embarrassed main characters didn't have to refer to him as, "Uh… 'that' guy." Alas, we never got to find out who the hell David was.

I get a kick out of that show, mostly, but it's annoying when they cut into it during the ads of TWD. And yeah, some of the ensembles work a lot better than others.

How did Tyreese & Co. figure out that whoever burned the corpses of (oh, crap, I already forgot their names)… also killed them? I had just assumed the people died and then got dragged out and burned.

Eh. I'm in super-liberal San Francisco, USA, and there's no place to see it. Yet. Limited release and all that.

Am I the only one who read the words Steve McQueen and thought, "Really? That guy's still alive?"

^TROLL

I think Charlie Sheen is a talented and charismatic actor, and I used to really like Two and Half Men, even though it's not that great of a show: I just liked seeing him do his thing. But then the more I heard about his personal life, the more I barfed.

That would be most of the stuff created by our well-meaning but severely outgunned friends. :)

That's how I feel about Larry McMurtry. Lonesome Dove is my favorite book ever, but I can't stand any of his other stuff.

I enjoyed the article, but the article title had me in the same expectant frame of mind. I have one friend in particular who, when I mention an author, artist, or actor I like, inevitably comes up with a disturbing factoid involving that person's biography. Especially since I'm a Woody Allen fan, I've learned I need

There's a really terrible movie with Corbin Bernsen (sp) called, The Dentist. It's not a good movie, and its kind of sadistic (ewww) but it nevertheless has a really scary moment when you see what he's done to his wife/girlfriend. That was a movie where I felt dirty after watching it. I think I still watched the

SPOILER: for Psycho:
when we finally get to see Norman's mom.

Applicable to most of these cited scenes (in comments and in article): I am thinking they often aren't scary with the sound off. It's amazing what a difference it makes. For instance, there was a scene that had been tense as hell on The Walking Dead*, and I watched it later with the sound off, and it didn't have any

Also, (near) beginning of 28 Days Later, when the zombies start running to the house, because the one girl takes a peek outside. Running zombies. Damn.

That's how I felt with Night of a 1,000 Corpses. I eventually turned it off, because I somehow felt like I was making humanity worse somehow by watching it.

Is anyone else surprised about how things are playing out between Rick and Carl? At the end of Season 3, I thought Carl and Rick were going to do an unnatural role reversal, and Carl would refuse to obey his father because he no longer respects him. I feel like we missed Carl's epiphany that he needs to respect his

That was my grade, too. I liked it better than the season premiere. I get the sense that poor Carol is going to try to find comfort through the two little girls, after having lost Sophia. I think that she's probably super-vigilant about the kids and self-defense because she wishes she could have protected her own

Haha, it was indeed UCD. Campus Cinema, y'all. 1994. Must have been an annual thing? What was it, two bucks? So good.

1. Every moment between the beginning of the narration of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and until just after Leatherface runs outside in frustration at the very end, waving his chainsaw in the air. And then the whole night afterwards, trying to sleep.
