What exactly do you mean "a regular bear"? Are you claiming that there's no difference between a California Grizzly and an Andean Spectacled Bear? Or between a Grizzly Bear and a Black Bear, for that matter? Do all non-white bears look alike to you? Or are you suggesting that polar bears are somehow "irregular"? …

I would say that Syndrome's motivation (that he wants everyone to be equal) is presented to us in as chilling a manner as his methods (sacrificing supers to perfect his murderbot).

Specifically, that "Everyone is special" is another way of saying "Nobody is special," and that artificially imposing "equality" among people who are inherently not equal is not just an appalling overreach, it ultimately does a disservice to the "ordinary" people it supposedly "helps." Perhaps most importantly, it…

"It's not a 'G.' In my language it's a symbol meaning 'Suppertime!'"

And both give him actual superpowers.

I've argued that (intentionally or not) there is an Objectivist argument being made, but I would never suggest (and have rarely if ever heard it suggested) that it's sufficient reason to hate the movie.

"A little rocky."

Davis Cross was nowhere in Chris Pratt's league as "schlubby cute."

You're not implying there was cause and effect there, are you?

Come to think of it, "I never asked my parents to fuck!" is just another way of saying "I didn't ask to be born!"

From what I understand, FDR wasn't big on stairs either…

The only reason to remake Casablanca is to set it in space.

Cross Jake & the Fat Man with B.J. and the Bear. They solve murders, and one is a monkey.

Mom is occasionally hilarious, touching and daring (like Roseanne) and occasionally mawkish, cheap and predictable (like 2 Broke Girls). I'd call the unevenness frustrating but I'm actually kind of fascinated by it. It seems clear that Chuck Lorre is trying to do something special with it, though.

At roughly 170-180 pounds per lawyer, that's only like a dozen. I mean, you don't want to be in a position to need a team of lawyers as big as your jury, but it's not unheard of…

OK, the thing people forget about the term "Faustian Bargain" (i.e. they use it to mean "selling your soul for worldly success") is that Faust was already wildly successful before he made the bargain: he had learned all there was to know about the law, about medicine, and about theology/philosophy, and he wanted the…

I thought they added the old female lead to that (new) Kevin James show, like they were writing Dick Van Duke in as a love interest for Mary Richards. But I've never seen either Kevin James show so I could be wrong…

"Persons of lactose."
