I went to see this today and loved it. I suppose the most pleasant surprise, outpacing even seeing John Leguizamo as a drug dealer (who also sells fireworks) was finding out that Kristen Stewart is a fantastic actress when given the right material. (Full disclosure: I'd previously only seen her in Snow White and the…

How is that different from a parallel universe?

It supports my theory that there's a sporting contest on to see how many of these can start with Simpsons screencaps.

They missed a perfectly good opportunity to put [citation needed] in that first paragraph.

Chancellor Puddinghead has a fantastic rating on PolitiFact, show some respect.

Yeah, I agree with this pretty much completely. I actually got through Diary and just gave up. (And yes, it's still me, I just have two accounts - AV Club and Disqus - and sometimes the site picks one and sometimes it picks the other.)

Ars Technica says it'll be out in the fall, but isn't tied in with Fury Road at all. The two followed separate design paths.

I ended up reading this for exactly that reason, and these comments for exactly that reason. I will say that the article actually did a solid job of trying to explain it, but I have only a cursory knowledge of the people and fast food chains involved here.

No, but neither are they. In order to condense a template out of existing material you have to set some outer boundaries, then condense down what lies within then.

Honestly, would Walking Dead: LA have been THAT bad? This title sounds like a tagline for a horror film from 1940.

The article on Tijuana Bibles is the first WW wiki page I'd already read in full before it was featured here. This is a solid summary, but anyone with time to kill should definitely check out that article in full, it gets entirely weird.

The middle part of Lawnmower Man was basically ReBoot, so yeah.

Aluminingham sounds like a city there.

I wonder if all the little characters in Ash's headspace also replaced their arms with chainsaws.

I'm surprised they haven't touched that one yet. It's Crichton's last great novel (in my opinion at least) and the CG technology to render nanomachine swarms has been around for awhile.

By deliberately misinterpreting this thoughtful piece on how people view each other as a screed against the mistakes of the past, just so you can rail against it, you're not helping anyone.

So is that thing hanging from the ropes in the promo pic a chest freezer or something? It's bugging me how incongruous it is and yet I still can't figure out what it is.

I liked "On Stranger Tides." I'm not going to stand up for it or anything, it's not a masterpiece, but I saw it once and liked it.

IT RETURNS!

Does anyone else feel like "Great Job, Internet" was born out of a desire for staffers to explain the non-work things they were doing at their desks?
