In other news, Dane DeHaan will play that bald manservant cyborg guy that worked for Lando in Bespin

I loved Darkwing Duck as a kid, by far my favorite of the afternoon Disney cartoons. I had Darkwing Duck toys, the Darkwing Duck Nintendo game, I went as Darkwing Duck for Halloween, it was my jam.

I gotta give props to the comparison of nostalgia and remake fever to why Trump has so many supporters, as filtered through the Member Berries; an unfortunate number of people want to roll back the clock, go back to "the way things were."

They already exist in a universe with a big, green rage monster, a Norse god that's really an alien, a gun-toting raccoon and a tree person.

You know the show is an idealized version of Los Angeles because I doubt a guy that looks like D.B. Woodside would be able to stroll out of LAPD central with just an "I got lost on the way to the bathroom."

The question is, was South Park mocking people who generalize what female comedians do, or was South Park itself mocking female comedians by generalizing (through Cartman in that auditorium scene?) I honestly couldn't tell.

I don't know, I had the same thought about director's motive when they zoomed in on Kaepernick. And I'm a 49er fan through and through, so I'm disheartened they're getting this kind of attention, and that what Kaep's actually kneeling for isn't getting enough attention.

Jeez, they cast a wide net with this one.

It's okay, these Spices bring their own racks.

"Two Become One" or whatever it's title was a dirty song carried by a lovely melody; the video, with the Girls looking how they do, and a cityscape at night, and those lyrics - "Be wiser, baby; put it on, put it on" - I had just become a teenager and even then I thought "I can't believe they're marketing this shit at

No video game has ever had such a diverse collection of great songs to me as Chrono Trigger. Sometimes I'd just go into the forest zones and listen to the music for awhile. Although the game was released in 1995, not 1996. Still awesome, though.

"while Noah tends to avoid getting serious."

The comparison between the start of Jon Stewart's Daily Show and Larry Wilmore's Nightly show boils down to 2 things (unfortunate as it may be):

I think (or I have to think to make sense of what the hell just happened) that the town was a Petri dish examination of blind faith and life in small towns living life just at the edge of being "off the grid". The town had two competing forces; faith and nihilism, hope and despair, represented by Jesse and Odin. Their

Look, I'm all for diversity and new takes on old material, but how the hell would an African-American woman in the 1930's get anywhere near government facilities or places with a lot of affluent white people? And how would they show it without inherently ugly racism or misogyny, which would be historical but not

"could’ve set him up as a butt for jokes"

You can bemoan the loss of the narrative spaces in between, but if it's true they only have 14 episodes left, I couldn't care less if we didn't spend an episode or two examining how Dothraki felt about being on a ship or how Cersei took the throne without any debate or pushback from the people, etc. We just don't have

My own personal theories are still in play; Tyrion did become Hand of the Queen as I predicted, and Jon may become captain of the Queensguard later on, once he learns his true lineage. Arya is on her own murder quest and Bran seems to be the most important figure in the war with the Walkers at the moment, but there

So Jon's got the North, Cersei has half the middle and all of the south, except Daenarys has the deep south, the iron islands (basically) and most of the far east. And they're all headed after each other. Plus ice zombies.

Darn, I should've put my money on EVERYONE. Half of King's Landing, anyway. Good Gods….
