You know what? With the recent Muhammad Ali news, which has got me into a complete depressive funk, what the hell. My hated celebs are not thriving, so I have nothing to lose at this point.

Realizing my top two answers would be Alan Rickman and David Bowie, and this year's got me too scared to pick/jinx anyone else.

Great observation - it makes a lot of sense, considering he's at the point where he's ready to give up the factory. Not only is the magic overly familiar to him by that time, but he knows he won't be able to experience the wonder of the factory much longer.

Seriously, what happened to the days when standing up to the local older-teen bully was all a movie pet was expected to do?

Proudest moment of my online career: getting into a fight with Lee Greenwood, having him call me un-American, and finally ending it by bringing up his cut-and-paste Canadian version of "God Bless the USA."

I figured it was the AV Club's intentionally-bad Photoshop for the article until I scrolled down and saw the poster behind Cameron. Someone actually got paid to slap that thing together.

Can't our livers have both?

doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Co-hosting with Dara O'Briain - surely late night TV could use a great improviser with an unabashed love of science and math.

Come gather round children, it's high time ye learned

Only if Sean has the necessary $240.

"Not a bit like Cagney."

I will never not get chills at the moment in "And I Love Her" when the camera circles Paul to get the flash of light and silhouette.

Definitely a top episode. I always enjoy the ones where Columbo sincerely respects the murderer and regrets having to catch him/her. Any Old Port In a Storm, with Donald Pleasence, is another great one.

I figured something was going to happen to somebody at the wedding, but all the talk between Tyrion and Bronn about whether or not the boat sailed made me think they'd bring out Shae to torture/kill in front of Tyrion. Especially with Joffrey's continued escalation of Tyrion's humiliation. Brilliant misdirection,

Exactly. I wanted to enjoy Joffrey's slow, painful demise for at least a minute, darn it. Was that too much to ask, Martin?

There has not been nearly enough appreciation of Diana Rigg. The moment
where she tossed the necklace away was positively delightful.

I have no problem with the animation style - what threw me is the uncanny resemblance between Giordano Bruno and the Yellow Submarine version of George Harrison.

I wish I could upvote this a thousand times over. I miss the days when Robin Hood actually enjoyed being Robin Hood. Give me Errol Flynn and the Disney version any day.
