I find the book/movie thing in Shining akin to Blade Runner and DADOES. Both have superficially the same story, but under the hood are very, very different beasts. If you don't get caught up on which is "right", both of each pair is very enjoyable and worthwhile. Whereas a straight miniseries of DADOES would probably…

Bah! You kids, you don't know what it was like. I was there, in the trenches, sweating it out, my fingers frozen from the deep freezers. The cola wars! The enemy was everywhere - you never knew who your friends were! You'd think they were decent, red-blooded God-fearing Americans, then you'd look in their fridge and…

Plus she's a werewolf!

I hope he painted over his mustache for that, too.

Methadone Clinic?

Anna Faris! She'll do anything if it's not-good-enough!

The best part of that story is the mental image of Brian Posehn with tits. And by best I mean terrifying.

Yes.

The Stand kind of reminded me of Watchmen, in that all things considered, it was about as good as I could have reasonably hoped for. Was it awesome? Transcendent? Incredible? No, not even close. But with so many characters, so much ground to cover and all, it was pretty good for what it was trying to be. Like Watchmen.

Well, all the people in cities are dead, so it's a total Tea Party paradise, other than all the Latinos. So yeah, pretty much moonshine, banjos and praying for the sweet release of death.

ID4U: This Movie Isn't Really Necessary

Needs more BWAMP!

Yes, all that credibility. All of it! Gone, like baby ducks swept away in a flood.

So where are all these boy wizards coming from?

Nah, you're thinking of Slammin' Buns. In Nudge Butt it's a play on spelling, and it's just Ted Nugent interrupting people.

Yeah, just last week I showed up for week with this big stain all over my crotch and everyone was like "Your Scot having a tough time?" And all I could do is nod in silent assent.,

Hey, you can get arrested for having sex with anything. I don't see what's so special about a duck.

I've been to that theater, The popcorn isn't even very good, and for the size, paying $5 million for a small is a total ripoff.

Still, $40+ million in week two sounds like it would be a pretty awesome showing for anything. Just not this somehow. It's sort of amazing how something as fundamentally cheezy as costumed superheroes is now the deluxe product.

"Oh, no. My brains."
