Infuriating and awesome both. SPOILERISH

SPOILERS
What's so weird to me is just how upset I was - even more so than after Ned died, even though I didn't care as much about Robb as I did about Ned. I think some of it was just the way the Freys totally disregarded this sacrosanct tradition of guest right, and of course that the whole movement itself was…

I disagree. It was okay

@avclub-a93a879594c13c12a83fd45ab289a022:disqus  just came up with a great idea for a Doctor Who Ramadan Special

Damn straight. And it's a trilogy so you know you're not going to have to wade through a bunch of excess crap.

Hmm, I guess I don't look for that in part because I'm not sure how I'd tell, and in another part because I'm satisfied if the characters are well-drawn, and if *I* have affection for some of them, and at least find the ones I don't have affection for interesting. For the most part I did right off the bat, but he did…

I really enjoyed book 4 especially. 1-5 were great, and even 6 had a good Rand storyline.

I dunno, @avclub-246e4d37c3adb08bc86a64abfe71cea8:disqus . I liked CoK better too, but I definitely didn't feel like I had to "push" through the first one. It grabbed me pretty early on. So I'm not sure the second one is so much above and beyond the first that someone who didn't like it would really be that interested…

Well, she's certainly not pretty by any means, but she doesn't really look like someone that everyone would be going on day and night about how god-awful ugly she is. I mean, maybe for a "highborn" lady?… I dunno. But hey, Tyrion looks better than he's supposed to and he was cast perfectly. So let's see how she acts.

*SPOILER ALERT*

Not a huge anime fan, but Lupin the Third was the bee's knees.

A lot of times it seems like the premise is used more often to do certain things with the narrative, like mix up time to give viewers hints of future events, or show how the narrator sees someone or an event when the audience knows that's not necessarily the truth (e.g., Lily's argument with Barney, Ted's view of…

I honestly think Smulders is the better actress of the two. Sure, Hannigan is super cute, but it doesn't make her a great actress.

I don't understand the ROTJ hate either.  Especially if it's because of Ewoks.

@avclub-48f3b69dfe25f0f5b4a6b8460a0def4f:disqus  You're better off. You'd only need to see it if you had some nagging sense that you have to complete everything, which you obviously don't. They *might* be better than Episode I, but that's faint praise. Jar Jar hardly appears anymore, but that just makes you realize…

@avclub-c2b1b8ce8d74964b7ca641283ddc2e8b:disqus  nailed it. The prequels were terrible in a myriad of ways that the originals weren't. Yes, watching the originals now I can see that they have clunky dialogue and a hokey quality. C3P0 was a little over the top in his comic relief. But seriously, that's nothing compared…

I remember playing the fuck out of Wing Commander III as a kid, and I saw that piece of shit movie because of it. Damn, now I have to find that game again…

And does this mean Dracula: Dead and Loving it isn't as good as I remember either? Because I can accept that of Spy Hard, but I don't think I can accept it of DDaLi (No one will ever see this acronym again).

Wow, I remember loving Spy Hard, but I only saw it once and was probably about 12 or 13. Sounds like a similar experience to @avclub-454a7bfd685393329597fdb7a92b7969:disqus 's. If I saw it again I'd probably just ruin it for myself like I did with Superman 4. Yes, I thought Superman 4 was good when I was a kid.

Wow. I wish I was on these boards when Biastioc was here. I wonder if I can search for him in comments from older articles. This was a thing of beauty.
