Hey Super! I got the game after asking you about the PS3 version that one time.

Dragons are fantasy. If there's a magic sword, or made-up, not-real animals, that's fantasy.

By now, the saturation point for zombies is a rapidly-fading dot in the distance.

Nice.

He's giving two-credit tugjobs in the bathroom of Soylent Green Soylent Green Soylent Green Soylent Green.

You should check out Split/Second. It's basically the video game equivalent of what kids imagine when they play with hot wheels in the backyard. Completely unrealistic, not lacking at all in explosions and holy-shit moments.

I think the idea is also to hopefully draw in some of that increasingly-lucrative irony/feigned nostalgia money, as well as maybe trick the parents (who actually remember the source material) that there will be something, anything that might interest them or remind them pleasantly of their childhood.

ties TO THE Confederacy, that is.

Totally with you Rawhide. It seems some people have this idea that movies and TV shows have a moral obligation to present everything even remotely related to the CSA and antebellum South as unambiguously, flatly evil. Just because a character has ties Confederacy doesn't mean its going to be Song of the South.

How does it run on the PS3, Super? I hear not so good things about the graphics.

It had tons of potential, but I'll concede that it fell short more often than not.

Sounds kind of like Carnivale…
with more guns and less hoodoo.

I'm surprised there aren't more folks calling Sean out for dropping a semi-obscure video game reference.

And let's not forget his wardrobe. Oh, his wardrobe.

"Let me tell you something. When Ponce looked at himself in that mirror, and saw that he had not changed, and that single tear rolled down his cheek…I lost it."

Wait though, have you ever seen him throw up?

I always thought "High Plains Drifter" was a fucking awesome title. Fun to say out loud.

Contra? Vampires? If Konami were really gutsy, they could try and hit 'em up for Castlevania as well.

I love how George uses the ketchup to represent the red sun of Krypton, and the mustard for the yellow sun of the Earth.

Unanswered Questions of the Comics World
I too love any time Jerry and George discuss comics. What other ones are there? The other big one I can recall is in the episode with Kramer's intern, where they argue over whether Iron Man wears anything underneath the suit.
