You forgot to say 'away'.

We tried to make him happen. It gave the people that Around the World in 80 Days film. The cost outweighed the benefit.

It's still fucking heartbreaking. As manipulative as it is, the scenes afterwards of him malfunctioning/dying as he picks up his body parts and slowly moves along the street with that slow piano music laid over it still hits me pretty hard.

Not "Before Midnight at the Oasis" in which Maria Mulduar stumbles around in the desert slowly become dehydrated to the point of hallucination and, for some reasons, horniness?

I had it made before he died. It's not in bad taste.

NO GHOSTING!

No love for Johnny 5 either - enough about your promiscuous Fisher Stevens, McKean, tell us what Johnny 5 was like to work with!

@avclub-4f18f486a356810b3ef8008243bcba7a:disqus  - obviously how well you think it was affected varies on what you take away from the film, but with regards to it being "on-screen", everything I mentioned was there.

You're right, being a big nerd myself I do sort of have a sense of "there but for the grace of god" with those people. I'm lucky in that I have a good group of real-life friends with similar interests to share reactions with. Maybe these guys aren't so lucky and just want to share their reaction with anyone, even if…

As I say in my reply to Peameal Bancon, that makes sense to me in a "between friends" enjoyed shared moment sense, even if the sharing of it outside of those friends still comes across as odd and a good deal narcissistic (though I accept that joining in the web reaction is a valid motivatior for a lot of fandom's…

"Mostly". I still question the few not included in that! (On a wider scale, my point still applies to those who film themselves watching the new Twilight/Doctor Who/Batman trailer and share their gawping faces over Youtube).

I don't understand these people who intentionally set up their web cams to film themselves in this moment. Are they book readers who knew it was coming and thought "Well, I better save this for prosperity"? Or are they simply people who record themselves watching every episode in case they feel the world would be…

"Because of the end of civilisation, the Clamp Cable Network now leaves the air. We hope you’ve enjoyed our programming, but more importantly, we hope you have enjoyed - life."

I completely agree - the songs aren't just tossed-off jokes. There's some genuine skill and care put into how they're assembled and it shows. It's a fantastic musical.

@avclub-d72f705337e5adcf7e33ec0381c5f5b2:disqus  - I was just being polite to anyone thinking "Ooh, there's a new Star Trek film out? That snuck by me, I've completely missed any news on it - I'll pop along tonight".

It's you mother, Jason! Something's gotta be done about your mother!

I'd disagree Lux - Spock's dealing with death/his home planet and how he controls emotions were a core feature of his character this time around, his relationship with Uhura tying into the same themes. And the destruction of Vulcan by Nero is the primary reason for the sudden militarization of Star Fleet which is at…

Thanks for the tip, I'll keep an eye on it - he seemed tailor-made for his Headhunters role so I'm very interested to see what he's like outside of it.

Agreed. One of my favourite surprises from last year (I only went to see it to kill time). A very smart and enjoyable thriller with some fantastic black humour and a nasty streak. And Coster-Waldau is great in it (though outshone by the main guy, but a lot of that is down to the roles as opposed to the actor's skills).

Ah, but with Ronin he's basically in it for their first mission, then takes the money, thanks them and leaves at around the half way point. So it's not so much that he survives so much as he has the good sense to run away before the inevitable.
