Why would you read a discussion about a movie you haven't seen yet if you were worried about spoilers?

Spend a few decades locked up in the fucking Phantom Zone, kid, THEN talk to me about aging.

He'll probably win, too; not necessarily on the strengths of this movie, which I haven't seen, but to make up for snubbing him in '10.

I honestly loved it. Sure the plot was highly questionable and the characters were inconsistent. But I was captivated the entire time, and it's rare for a blockbuster to hold my attention that supremely here in my highly cantankerous golden years. I mean, have you tried to sit through World War Z? Christ, what a…

Oh man, I love the Onion. You almost had me there. Nice try, the Onion.

I vote wine

By leaps and bounds. It didn't seem like the same band without him.

Suuuurre … "for a column I'm writing". Gotcha.

Even worse is when you bought that game expecting it to be like the hella fun, multi-player TMNT arcade game that was popular at the exact same time and which was absolutely nothing like the NES game in any way at all.

Expect a lot of catering to nostalgia

I'm kinda worried about your cousin's family now. Have you considered popping in for a visit? Or does the idea of going to that house again freak you out too much? Totally understandable if the latter.
