I saw this in the theatre. At the time, I was playing a lot of Shadowrun, so naturally my friends and I all had to make gun-fu style characters that we never played. Later, I bought the DVD but by then my interest had waned. I've never taken it out of the plastic wrapping.

I liked, "The Way of the Gun" which had Taye Diggs in it.

I agree. My take is Margaret reminds Nucky of his dead wife.

Give me a break, Tom S, I don't even believe in Jeebus.

Hitchcock called it the difference between shock and suspense. Although in this case, with the knife shown about two seconds before the slicing, it wouldn't make much difference either way.

I enjoy the show as well. Something I've noticed is that even though the episodes sometimes feel like not a lot is going on, I'm always surprised when they end, like there is another 15 minutes to go.

Last episode? I believe it was.

Are you presuming to know more than Executive Producer Timothy Van Patten? I think his time on "The Master" with Lee Van Cleef would prove you wrong.

Heigl strikes me as the kind of neighbor who would always be all smiles to you when you pass in the hallway, but who would then rat you out to the super about the potted plants on your balcony.

Every time the trailer asks me that question I respond with, "Short answer: No." Or occasionally, Rev. Lovejoy's, "Short answer 'yes with a but', long answer 'no with a maybe'."

I have a similar theory on how after he fails to become a giant snake the Mayor goes on to become the Secretary of Agriculture in the Bartlet administration.

Burns is probably my favorite character on the Simpsons…
Sinister and yet oddly vulnerable, irredeemable and still sympathetic.

I've only watched one of those shows, but I'd agree with your assessment of Terriers. And here I thought it was going to be a long, cold winter waiting for Justified to come back.

I don't watch this show…
except occasionally, when I have to kill some time between Law & Order and The Closer, but I just saw some publicity stills for "Mike and Molly" and damn Bill Gardell has gotten fat. I mean, he's always been big but now he looks like he ate the Michelin Man.

I think the Peter Principle is part of it, but there was another theory I read, "In Hollywood, it doesn't matter if you succeed or fail, only the magnitude of your success or failure."

Sometimes asians have the last name "Ho". Funny now because "ho" is a slang term for a sex worker, funny in years past because it was also a term for a farm implement.

@Generic Poster: There's a third collection of Howard's original Conan stories in publication order.

Is there another video of her crying as the judge sentences her or has the American Justice System failed us again?

That scene actually had me wondering more about the dynamics of making a blood pool expand equally in all directions. I wonder what PSI the karo syrup was pumped in at, or if they just CGI'd it.

Short Time has been making the rounds on HBO in the early afternoon the past few months. It was a movie I enjoyed as a kid, but watching it again I was surprised how emotionally grounded the characters were. The scene where he tells Teri Garr how much she means to him and the scene with the bomber in the convenience
