Darkly Dreaming Dexter is a terrible book.

Lance Bass came out five years after On the Line, and media speculation about his sexuality began only a year before that.  Without this hindsight, I sincerely doubt that you could watch the film and immediately deduce that Bass was homosexual, something that none of the contemporary reviewers cared to suggest.

The solution to a mystery shall always disappoint.  Every television series based on a myth arch - Lost, The X-Files - attests to this.  It's far easier to create a mystery than it is to solve.  And even if your resolution is consistent and understandable, it shall never satisfy fans whose imaginations exceeded the…

I don't see how a heterosexual man being uncomfortable with homosexual attention is any different than, say, a gay man fending off the advances of a woman.  Both have the potential to be played for laughs.  The joke is that the character is being put into a compromising position, not because homosexuality is…

Yeah, that Lance Bass-Liberace double bill was far more unintentionally homophobic than any instance of "gay panic" that Rabin has invoked, since its assertion is that both are just too gay to pass as straight people.  As Zachary Quinto or Neil Patrick Harris could prove, gay men can act as straight men - that's why…

See, this is why I can't get behind the BSG hate, because it seems to be based on two mutually incompatible complaints: that the finale did not have enough revelations and lacked thematic significance, and that its revelations and themes were too spiritualistic.  BSG's audience was divided between two overlapping…

@avclub-b6e8cb5c4ccebe66e4478c1622f904eb:disqus The BNP have temporarily reconciled with the Jews in order to unite against the Muslims, after which they'll go right back to denying the Holocaust (but secretly hoping it will happen again).  It's the salami strategy.

A pre-pubescent girl wailing into mobs of goons with ease was probably the most plausible thing about that film.
