@lionofdharma:

Aldo! And Ethan! And the creepy warlock dude from season six of Buffy! And it looks like Claire really DID die way back in season four. And it looks like there really WAS a couple in Los Angeles!

I know, I feel like Steve is taking one for the team and I hope he keeps it up. I gave up on this show back in season two, but these write-ups are frequently hilarious. I always get excited when the grade is a D or less.

That. Was. Interesting? Yeah, I'm going to go with interesting. I'm hooked, but that was never really in question.

@Bad Horse: The problem with Adventureland is that Kristen Stewart is actually a terrible actress. She doesn't play her part in Adventureland any differently than she plays Bella in Twilight. Here, in one sentence, is Kristen Stewart's idea of acting:

Yeah, I'm right pretty much all the time.

You'll like it, Bill, I promise.

If nothing else I felt Twilight was worth it because the 4th book was SO. FUCKING. FUNNY. I mean, seriously, they're going to make a movie out of Edward chowing down on Bella's uterus after the freaky baby breaks her spine? And then The Jail-Bait Werewolf falls MADLY IN LOVE with an INFANT?

I have not seen Avatar and have no desire to do so. I think the thing for me is everyone raves about "AVATAR 3-D!!!" and I just don't get the 3-D thing. Maybe because I wear glasses and putting another retarded pair of glasses OVER my glasses is a wicked turn off.

Hey, Hiro's the reason I left too! Way back in season two, the "Hiro in ancient Japan" storyline made me want to kill myself. Now I just read the reviews because they're funny.

I once got a girl into bed with me after showing off "The Number of the Beast" by Iron Maiden on expert guitar. I'll admit, though, I was pretty sure she was going home with me before I decided to show off my mad Guitar Hero skillz. Also, I now live with that girl. She was a true keeper.

@Elitist Trash: God damn right it is. Let's get a hardcore drummer in on this argument, because I can school my friends at fakey drums too.

But Warren, it IS the same thing in the sense that the skill sets are COMPLETELY UNRELATED. Being a talented Guitar Hero player has literally nothing to do with being a talented guitar player. Similarly, being a talented Madden player has NOTHING to do with being a talented football player. They are, as stated,

Synecdoche, New York was fucking terrible.

*Live album, LIVE album! I'm all over the typos tonight.

Bare Naked Ladies has been without artistic merit since Born on a Pirate Ship. Even THAT one wasn't that good, but a couple of tracks made Rock Spectacle, which is a quality love album, so I'll cut it some slack.

*Unrelated, not unrated, damn it!

I've never understood the Guitar Hero vs. REAL guitar thing. They are completely and totally unrated skills. It's like assuming that, because I can thrash you at Madden, I can beat you in an actual game of football. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

I don't even watch this show, I just like reading about how bad it is. it makes me feel better about myself.

I'll be the first to admit there's a lot of problems with that last sentence. I think the larger point shines through. That is to say: SUCK IT, ROSS WOLINSKY.
