This is debatable, but the very last strip was pure genius. No contrived big moments, no fireworks, just a boy and his tiger.

Actually he is very much Schulz's heir.
Comics Journal has this weird phobia against C&H. One of their editors, the Fantagraphic boss I think, ranked at around 50 in all time greats. Weak I say.

The first thing that came to my mind.

Yes, I'm in the minority with that one. My top tier Pixar is from 95-01, Toy Story through Monsters Inc. Then Ratatouille. Up's dialogue-less scene nudges it very close to the top.

I often wonder how clean/harsh singers maintain their voice. When I saw Akerfeldt live, he was a total badass.
Some elevate the effects thing to a different level. Fever Ray.

Was expressing my undying hatred for Shrek and Happy Feet and by extension the Oscars. Cars is not their best, but still better than those two. Monsters Inc. is up there though. Of course my bitching is pointless since this is the Oscars.
2001: Fuck Shrek in the eye
2002: Spirited Away = No Competition
2003: The…

"Pixar will always win."
That's some bullshit right there. Some of their best films got shafted by the likes of Shrek, Bag of Vomit, Milk and Cocoa Puffs. I don't have the whole list, but you can look it up.

Who hates music more?
Oscars or Grammys?

Best awkward middle-age guy dance
Dave Matthews. Sadly that's the only 3 seconds I watched on mute.

Travis covering Britney Spears
I don't hate them, they have a couple good tunes. But on this one they can go fuck themselves.

Steve Heisler
I will now read his reviews with considerable interest. I had exactly same reaction to Deadwood and all the bands he mentioned. Not terrible, but not must haves either.

Looks better than all the writers mentioned here, hope the same can be said about his writing.

1:34 minute survivor here. The first woman is proCoco and quite good looking. The second one is the gooey hateful center of Oprahness. "Jay is like Carson. Give him his 30 years. If he wants it there's nothing to be done." and on and on. Oprah's "I can't believe you people just screwed me" expression is priceless.

Beck is the second most popular TV personality or some such shit, while Obiwan's numbers keep tanking. So fuck January with a rusty fork.

Michael Bay, director, Diablo Cody, screenwriter.

What's with mathematical prodigies
and Judaism? See Maximillian Cohen in Pi. I suck at maths and am quite ignant about the chosen peeps. Anyone care to explain?

Actually Rand's storytelling is quite problematic. It's like those old-timey cartoons where they show a fat guy in coat-tails and a pointer helpfully explains, "Greedy rich man."

And wall street and unjust wars and…

NYT's canned Obit
They have about 1,200 NYT obits ready to deploy when needed, but didn't think Zinn was important enough, so just tossed in an AP obit. Liberal east coast newspaper my ass.

VW America makes shit cars. European ones are supposedly better.
