I agree. It's a theme that should be discussed more often because it's very relevant for the times, especially as the health care debate was going on during the first few seasons of the show.

I'm not sure why an obvious allegory is automatically bad. Don't we want audiences to recognize something and say, "Damn, this problem is like our own. We should do something about that." It's been the cornerstone of sci-fi drama for years.

I don't think you can ignore it when Han Solo, Indiana Jones, and President Get Off My Plane tells you you're lazy. Not even Bruce Willis is immune to that.

The way the article title was phrased made me think Ford had called Willis lazy which would've been awesome.

Multiple times in the history of Doctor Who.

I much preferred Smith, too, but he's much more similar to Tennant than he is to Eccleston or McCoy or Davison, y'know? I didn't mean it as a criticism, just a sign that we're going in a new direction.

I actually think his casting will change the tone of the show. I can't see him bouncing around and speaking ten million miles a second like Smith or shouting in a pompous yet phony voice like Tennant. For the new show, I think Capaldi's casting is going to bring about some large changes. While I adored Smith, that…

I meant they should've flipped the Talia story to before Hurt's final story as Hurt is more exciting (for me) and works better for a grand finale. Hurt's end in the coffin was fantastic as is the fact that the Joker did him in.

I've read Arkham Asylum and thought it was pretty much perfect. I will definitely be getting Animal Man, soon then.

I'll definitely be picking those stories up over the next year or two. Which do you recommend to start with?

I adored Morrison's run. It wasn't perfect. Sometimes it was too vague and the first volume of Batman Incorporated was too all over the place for me.

I had to fast forward through one of the scenes in Laura's bedroom the first time I watched FWWM.

I like my horror in the David Lynch realm. He builds up atmosphere and then when the horror happens it doesn't suddenly jump out at you but instead approaches you slowly and there's an inevitability about it, like there's simply nothing you can do.

I found that movie genuinely scary which is rare for me as I usually get bored with horror movies quickly. It might be because this film was more interested in "terror" as opposed to jump scares.

Matthew Weiner just bashed three of his writers' heads in because he wasn't nominated.

I'm fairly sure that Gordon Cole's voice is Lynch's regular speaking voice that's maybe, and just maybe, turned up slightly higher.

Rothstein is the best character in the show. Are there people who dispute this?!

The second half of the season is amazing. It really gets rolling and you won't be letdown by it.

Got the chance to watch it today and I thought it was good for a first episode. I loved the animation style and thought Pyg and Toad were used in an interesting but different way. Pyg is obviously toned down but there are allusions to his depravities here and there, such as his eagerness to use his surgical saw on…

If they're putting in Professor Pyg I wonder if they're ever considering playing around with Dr. Hurt.
