Gallery Owner, that actually would have been brilliant, if contrary to the whole "forcing these people into specific roles" theme that was going on, which struck me as a bit of cultural commentary.

I like the distinction between "witches" and "sexy witches."  Also, am I missing the unicorn, or is it not on there?

That would at least make them more interesting than Part 1.

Honestly, I was just expecting him to be a terrorist who gets ahold of Stark's Tech, given the way Favreau had gone with 1 and 2.  Not a neat sidestep of any racial issues, but it could've worked.  Then again, I like your idea better, particularly the nostalgia-obsession.

There was 250,000 pints lining the inside walls of the banana stand.

*cough* A black mummy would maybe, probably be historically accurate.  At least until the executives decide that he should rap and break-dance.

Speaking of Peter Cottontail, my favorite Easter anything is Red Forman unknowingly ingesting special brownies and singing the Peter Cottontail theme song. Only tangentially related to Easter, but I'll take what I can get.

Me too.  And this just sounds…awful.

Whatever could you mean?  What's more progressive than Keith Olbermann and Elliot Spitzer?

Can't have that.  Nerds making fun of lens flares and shitty writing?  An OUTRAGE!

It's funny that you point out the the movies built on what happened in the shows, because when it came to watching Star Trek, I went about it ass-backwards.  First Contact was my first experience with the franchise, then The Voyage Home, a handful of Next Generation episodes, Voyager, the reboot, then I watched Wrath

Definitely agree with Spinrad's take on the Abrams reboot.  I'm not a fan of the series (and didn't even watch many of the movies until after that one, which I thought was…okay), but compared with Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, First Contact, and the better episodes of the TV series, it's downright backwards.  Even

So, you want Abrams to direct the script?

Those would more intelligent [/obvious joke].

The best part is that the rage is for a series of games that is so thoroughly…mediocre.  Yeah, it's got a slick presentation, and it apes the leaping/shooting/exploding of various big-budget action movies (and the plot of standard Indiana Jones knockoffs) pretty well, but what does that get you? Quick Time Events,

Though I wouldn't call it my favorite after 2 (I still think the first is pretty brilliant), I do like Shattered Memories quite a bit, mostly because it took what was important to the games (the sense of helplessness and isolation, the ambiguity, and the psychological aspects) and tried to build a new experience

I'm thinking a Nan Vernon cover of "Whiskey in the Jar" (which would add a decidedly different spin on the lyrics).

Rob Zombie's The Leprechaun?

Picaresque is always number one in my eyes, but the others play a game of musical chairs for number 2 on down.
