Make a Twin Towers inspired Mario level!

Holy shit. That makes me so happy. I love the Village (not a masterpiece, but good!) and this gives a weird aspect of my taste some minor validation.

I guess I meant with a politician.

I've never seen an interview like that on a Late Night show, let alone a comedy show. Colbert's gonna be just fine. I love that he trusts his audience enough to actually do a sedate, personable, in-depth interview in the middle of his comedy show. He didn't try and follow it up with jokes or end it with having Biden

It's awesome. The tagline for his Social Network one says, "I'm facebook!" "No, I'm facebook!"

Yeah, he really shines in the issues where it's just him and Harper having a conversation in some seedy alleyway, or Batman going on an internal monologue while doing some detective work.

I need to check out Detective again. I liked the first few issues that Tony Daniels did when New 52 started, but it became increasingly clear that he did not give a shit about that book. I check in from time to time and it's always been kind of meh. Glad to hear it's good—Snyder's run on Detective is what got me into

You're right! I edited it, thanks. You tapped into exactly what I was thinking: Snyder actually uses these stories to explore Bruce Wayne, his relationship to Gotham, with his "bat" family, with Alfred, with himself. As a result, it brings greater meaning to Batman. I never liked any of the Batman spinoffs like Robin,

I know it's popular to hate on Snyder, because he's incredibly popular and gets effusive praise all the time but…man, he deserves the praise. His run on Batman has been incredible. I have some problems with his writing from time to time, but he's writing the exact kind of Batman stories I love to read, and he writes

He did good work in Black Mirror, but the way he draws people's faces just…bugs me. It just looks wrong, to my eyes. I think his compositions are incredible, though.

"Hunnam says starting production on the movie and missing out on its release was the “most emotionally destructive and difficult thing that I’ve ever had to deal with professionally. It was heartbreaking.”
This is a man who hasn't had many emotionally destructive or difficult things happen to him.

" Comedy Bang! Bang! is a gifted mimic of TV’s lazy formats, but it’s something weirder, and at its best, something infinitely more rewarding to watch."
This is a pretty solid encapsulation of what makes CBB great. I think its tone is off-putting to most people, and hard to describe what Scott Aukerman's character "is"

"The vibe between them is immediate."

This is sort of like when people call Ocarina of time "oh-ka-rina" of time instead of "Awk-er-ina" of time. I'm not sure that one is actually correct, but "oh-ka-rina" just sounds DUMB.

There are dozens of us! DOZENS!
Well, at least half a dozen.

"The Sith is the power that BE!"

Eh, I always thought it was kind of cool. It creates a visual symmetry to the movies, and adds to the sort of mythical quality the Star Wars movies have. It kind of gives the effect that these stories are cyclical legends, like the Zelda games. A great evil rises up, a young hero with unknown powers is called upon to

I refuse to be labeled as someone who fucks nuggets.
And I'm pretty sure you're trolling, but either way you're just sort of making my point for me. So I'ma stop.

That's why I didn't include The Phantom Menace (I was too young to have any kind of perspective on it when I saw it, so I didn't have that "George Lucas Raped My Childhood" response, but I can certainly recognize that it's a bad movie). But I don't know. I'm a fan of The Original Series, and while a lot of the

Hey! That hackneyed sitcom trope was *my* idea that I stole!
