This continues to be the most baffling thing on the avclub. It'seems not funny, it'seems not touching, it has ferries but doesn'the seem to be porn. Just kind of two anthropomorphic animals gently ribbing each other. Very weird.

Just finished the Nova Ren Suma story. It's not a horror story, but it's still pretty good.

Weirdest part of this episode: It's based on the episode "Eater" from the short-lived BBC series Urban Gothic. It's strange to me just how far reaching Gordon's knowledge of horror is.

Say what you will about the Gameological Society (that many of their reviews don't tell you whether the game is actually good or not, that they invented a new heresy while discussing Panzer Dragoon Saga, that they joined in the ridiculous Mass Effect hate, that John Teti can't seem to decide whether games these days

Say what you will about this film, but it is, to my knowledge, the only children's film whose trailer prominently features "Tick of the Clock" from the Drive soundtrack.

"Life and death are all just a meaningless continuum to Scruffy… I reckon."-Scruffy, after it's revealed that he's a zombie.

Definitely seeing this movie. 
1)Katherine Isabelle is a talented and underused actress.
2)I'm a sucker for rape-revenge movies.

Doesn't matter or anything, but the podcast you mentioned is episode 293 of This American Life, entitled "A Little Bit of Knowledge".

There's this really weird section where the main character dreams that the ghost is ordering a VC soldier to cut his own fingers off, while simultaneously enjoining everyone to drink Moxie Cola. "This act of Self-Mutilation is brought to you by Moxie Cola. Moxie: It really hits the spot." or some such.

Sounds pretty great, but does it have any scenes as cool as the hallucination from "Heart-Shaped Box," that somehow managed to combine self-mutilation, hypnotism, the Vietnam War, and the most disturbing Moxie cola reference ever written into like a page of text?

Well, at least he'll be reunited with Lina Romay. For a man who made sleazy, porny movies, and a woman who had explicit oral and lesbian sex in them, they had an oddly touching romance.

As the author of the "Krang with Boobs" e-mail, I think hearing the Floppers read that letter might be the happiest moment of my life.

Holy shit. If they do this right (a one to two season arc, following the novel really closely), this could be amazing. If they try to spin it out into a series, though, I have no idea what their long term arc would be? Maybe Crosier and his wife's adventures as spirit walking people?

To quote the great Stuart Wellington (bringer of light and goodness, savior of children, master of both sea and skies): Does DuckTales take place on the same planet that Howard the Duck is from, and, if so, does Scrooge know quack-fu? Also, what are the tenents of quack-fu, and why does it look like he's just running

They filmed part of Last Stand in a building where I was a janitor (it's the one where the rescue, lifted car, zipline stunts happens). On the plus side, I got to see Forrest Whitaker. On the downside, the people filming were total dicks who didn't clean up after themselves, blocked access to rooms I had to get into,

I finally got around to watching the 2000-2001 British horror antholog series Urban Gothic. It's not a classic or anything. The episodes are quite frequently too short, wasting a good idea on a shoddy, rushed execution. But I think it might be the most bugfuck insane television series I've ever watched (even the

I know that expecting a spokesperson for the NRA to be up on video games is probably folly, but still, Splatterhouse? Seriously? Does anybody but me even remember that ill-conceived remake of a fairly ill-conceived game? This is the first time I've thought about it in months, and I own the damned thing.
