i wish i could upvote this a million times

I think it is your last question. To be an artist, you have to be willing to take a chance, expose yourself and to work with no guarantee of future profit, that is the exact opposite of the conservative nature.

i really enjoyed this episode, closer to the scary, kinda nuts vibe of the first season. Even the Ichabod-Katrina chemistry was better since they are supposed to be a little awkward and estranged. I have accepted the fact that Katia is just not a vrey good actress. But, really, SH, that dress she was wearing was

I do feel that way about R.E.M. I would recommend Collapse Into Now for the wayward fan.

Woody Allen definitely! although I would go with Everyone Says I Love You for his worst. Jim Jarmush, R.E.M - I even like Around the Sun - and Radiohead. I forgot Tarantantino, Whedon, Fuller, Cohen brothers and probably many more. I guess I like too many people.

just to put in my two cents. i've been a waitress in queens and brooklyn, and black and white people tend to tip about the same - equally bad or good. generally, i have the most problem getting good tips out of asian people. it's even kind of a joke where i work.

i know what you mean. i am a woman in nyc and i seem to meet only completely irresponsible jackoffs or uptight, no imagination types. i think part of the problem is i am attracted to confidence, as almost all women are, and so many men, who are probably great guys, don't show enough confidence - but for some reason

great article. i have never cared about spoilers and often read the tvclub or movie reviews before i've seen the piece. now i have some valid reasons why i have never been bothered by spoilers & sometimes enjoy a piece more when i know where it is going. i also find the whining that can take over a conversation (that

I'll go with the mcconaughay/ bullock comparison. but also there are just not that many great roles for women in movies. even "prestige" actresses talk about it as a big problem.

I hadn't decided whether tony died or not. but I love this explanation so much. he is dead now.

in the book they do talk about how is is easy for a small group of wildings to cross back and forth - that there is commerce between the watch & wildings. my take on their dangerous climb is that they are racing against time, the wights are already upon them, they didn't have time to take the "easier" but maybe

in the book, he was badly injured in blackwater.  he's recuperating, not interacting with anyone. so they could bring him back. or they may have just cut him to keep a tight focus. i suspect the latter.

I see the religions roughly paralleling western religious development.
The old gods (tree worship) is like prehistoric European mother goddess worship (Celtic?)
The seven are roughly like the Greek/Roman gods, meaning polytheistic.
The red god is monotheism, like Judaism. Large sections of the Old Testament read like a

i enjoyed Emily's entire review, but throwing a sandwich at the tv during Lost finale was hysterical.
Also, I love this show. 
I'm on board with Amon as a pissed off spirt world guy.
