Anyone else flabberghasted that WB censors let the scene with Harley's "pie" get past them?

I prefer to think of that as real-life Patrick Stewart's dissing of a rival superhero franchise.
  (Although, of course, the star of X-MEN: THE LAST STAND should probably tread carefully here, less Christian Bale respond in his SCARY BAT-VOICE!)
  (naw, just kidding; we all know Bale isn't cool enough to do a cameo on…

Boy, that Tom Hardy's a real chameleon, though.

I read an interview with O'Bannon years ago where he describes meeting with Gary Kurtz and George Lucas (they hired him to design computer read-out effects for STAR WARS); Kurtz was very focused on the job at hand, but Lucas kept bringing the conversation back to that alien, which he was appalled by on some deep,…

The Bros. aren't actually collaborating in the traditional sense- they  each draw and write their own seperate stories, so yeah, technically that would mean individual nominations.

First few episodes are shaky, but once it finds itself, it becomes the most compulsively watchable show since THE SHIELD.
 watch at least until the episode THING IN THE PIT; you should be hooked by then.

Let the snobby critics turn their noses up at this all they want; in ten years it'll be considered REQUIRED VIEWING.

OOOH  JONATHAN ALTMAN IS SUCH A TEACHER OF THINGS.
  It is so good he is here to defend the originality of FAMILY GUY, which doesn't have a history of stealing other people's gags at ALL.

Actually, Marge DIDN'T set up the dungeon; Homer did because he was trying to please her and was told that this is what women like.
  Marge was pretty turned off by it… except for one particular battery-powered item (which I assume is the Popular Favorite Of Housewives Everywhere).
  Both seemed pretty much in character…

There's a telling bit in the documentary on the EXORCIST DVD in which Blatty is very concerned about audiences understanding the SPECIFIC points he's trying to make in the script, but Friedkin much prefers the idea of multiple interpetations.

That "Quagmire in France" bit is a pretty blatant rip-off of THIS: http://www.youtube.com/watc…

No bad, but I think we can all agree: Nick Mancuso is no Troy Tempest.
  Still, it does have a GRATUITOUS SHOT OF A FALCON-HEADED WALKING STICK, so yeah, I'd watch that.

I APPROVE OF THIS!

Isn't that a "hand-me- down" theme from the movie? (Not a complaint- there's a long and noble history of that, from THE LONE RANGER to ST:TNG)

Seriously, you've got to hear it: http://www.youtube.com/watc…

I think the overall decline of theme song quality is, strangely enough, tied to the overall increase of tv show quality. Today's best shows aspire to a certain kind of sophistication and subtlety, wheras many of the shows of the 1960s were using their themes to overcompensate for the sometimes ragged quality of the…

Oh, yeah… Q!

GREEN HORNET. Goddamn AL HIRT, man: http://www.youtube.com/watc…

Seriously, even the 1960s shows that no one's HEARD of had kickass themes: http://www.youtube.com/watc…
