It's funny that Rick disapproves of his daughter being with Jerry, as their relationship is the only thing that can produce those valuable Morties.

Summer doesn't have some easy hook to describe her, but she feels very real despite, or perhaps, because of that.

The Jerry that is a genius is not a Jerry.

I can't imagine Jerry is really going to be sidelined unless Chris Parnell has some desire to be out of the show. He is just such a great foil to Rick and one of the funniest characters.

The basic idea of a kingdom split by infighting as a Great Evil looms is a good one, but this has been so poorly handled. The internal conflict was thrilling in the first couple of seasons, and every dark turn made me think about how much more unprepared Westeros would be when the White Walkers showed up, but then we…

Good point. You really only need to hire one star to hang the marketing on and go for talent everywhere else.

One of Bob Newhart's claims to fame is doing comedy albums, so he makes sense as a voice actor.

When I used to do theater, I noticed that nice people seem to excel at playing monsters for some reason.

Nothing takes me out of a movie more than being told ahead of time there is a twist. I spend the whole movie second-guessing what I am seeing. A good enough movie will suck me in and make me forget to look for the twist, but not all movies are that good.

The beauty of the twist in The Sixth Sense is that the movie doesn't depend on it. I already had the feeling I had seen a good satisfying movie about a kid learning to deal with his weird powers. I was ready for the credits to roll, and then the twist hit. It was just a final level of enjoyment to an already good…

That was Tintin Quarantino actually.

Same here. I was actually kind of bummed that Return of the Jedi had such closure. I wasn't ready for it to be over.

I was staying with sister and her husband a couple of years ago, and the topic of Carrie came up. My brother-in-law and I were talking about it, and my sister admitted she had never seen it. She was a ballet dancer when she was young, and her whole ambition was wrapped up in that. It's given her a lot of weird…

I started watching The Twilight Zone as a kid in the early '80s, and I still managed to see it largely unspoiled. It was rerun every night, and it hadn't been as heavily parodied yet. The odds of seeing the original before seeing something making fun of it were still pretty good.

Just my personal experience, but it felt like a lot of people were sick of it before the end of the '80s. It was somehow propped up as the default rock music for years past its natural expiration date by MTV and the record companies. And by extension, there was a whole scene of people trying to be the kind of bands…

I missed The Day After. I was living in Kuwait at the time. I moved back in January of '84, and it was still a regular topic among my fellow 6th graders. Back then, there wasn't any way to see something you missed, so I had to experience through the recountings of my traumatized classmates. That might actually have…

Missy is a big part of why I have confidence I might enjoy the next episode even if the script is made of stupid.

I'm sorry to report that @zachandcoke:disqus was torn apart by maenads shortly after his last comment.

Its the day after the election and his term ends a couple of months after that date, so if the election goes well, we could be out of the accords for a few months before signing back in.
