Follow-up Failure
I have to say, as much as I normally enjoy this feature, this is definitely a tepid follow-up to the Death Rain article. What happened to taste-testing stuff that was hard for the average consumer to get ahold of, like CIAC or magic fruit? This looks like the AVC writers grabbed the lunch box of a…

I had to laugh…
If this is what R&D thinks French fries taste like, they must be shoving the fries in the wrong hole.

Oh no! You mean the remake isn't keeping with it's obscure traditional roots?

@JVS - Good lord, no, the two have nothing to do with each other. I just had a difficult time learning to shoot a full stock shotgun because my arms were too short to seat the stock in the well of my shoulder while reaching the trigger. I ended up with some nasty bruises on my bicep and got a lot of pointing and…

I don't know, a shoulder stock can be unwieldy for those of us who are vertically challenged.

When are they going to remake…
Spin the Bottle? That's the game I'm waiting to see rereleased.

Sometimes it's just easier to assume all guys are sexist until they prove otherwise.

Possibly because Blade III sucked donkey dick.

I don't think that's true of Buffy, though. I mean, don't get me wrong, love the Scoobies, and Oz, and Giles, and Angel and Spike (especially Spike) but a large part of why I got hooked on the show was to watch specifically how Buffy dealt with things, how events impacted her. She's a very strong, passionate,…

Because nothing says "You're on my mind, baby" like fresh, decaying flesh.

I've never seen more than one ep of Angel, and the consensus seems to be that it's not really required to appreciate Buffy to the fullest. I'm not sure why I didn't get into it, but it may have something to do with the fact that, after a while, I could only take so much of his brooding, suffering presence. The other…

See, I couldn't remember if it was the whole ep or not, and I was too lazy to check online.

While I can't disagree about the momentum jarring, I think the idea of Angel killing Jenny that laying low again isn't necessarily out of keeping for the way they wrote the Angelus character. He was supposed to be a master of brutal psychological torment, preferring to torture his victims rather than rush in and…

Alas, I must remain at my desk despite the fact that I have no viable work to do. Thus my presence here.

That's okay, my first TV crush was on Spock. I was a weird little kid.

I as well, which is my only excuse for watching the flick "Without a Paddle". Horrible movie.

I also appreciated the lack of "safety" for the major characters, at least to a degree. Not just physical safety - the major characters are the ones who suffer the most brutal emotional losses throughout the show, and while each loss is not identical, they are all profound enough that they can each appreciate the…

Starshocked Troopers

Prehaps pussy also has a problem with you. Did you ever think of that?

I have to disagree with you, Zap, Starship Troopers is a camp masterpiece, the best bad film I've ever seen. I'm not a film student so I don't understand the technical, artsy reasons for why this is, but any movie that refused to take itself at all seriously while presenting a clearly alarmist and yet oddly plausbile…
