I can brag that my parents are the 1%-ers.

I’m kind of tired of rock/pop songs being played very slowly, and usually with a female singer and simple (maybe even just one-finger piano notes) in the background, to establish “mood” — like the trailer for Age of Ultron, the teaser trailer for the next X-Men, and even commercials are doing it (that Hershey’s add…

I guess we can prepare by identifying the existing areas that will become uninhabitable with rising sea levels. Or fresh water that will become brackish. Or animals that will become endangered. Or loss of food supplies. And then plan for alternatives. But we can’t plan if the politicians won’t acknowledge there’s a…

I’m very jaded, so the first thing that comes to my mind is that this type of ride wouldn’t work in America. Because we obese/physically unfit Americans cannot get on and off the thing without tripping and hurting ourselves. And the lawsuits wouldn’t be worth whatever increase in ticket price Disney would charge.

I’ve never seen or heard of the show “Outlander” — but look at the COLORS! It’s refreshing to see a show or movie that uses real colors! OMG, I thought those didn’t exist anymore.

Not an “invention,” but how about Homer’s theory of a doughnut-shaped universe?

No you won’t.

Did you know there’s a direct correlation between the decline in Spirograph and the rise in gang activity? Think about it.

Wow, I love this.

The airlines LIKE it when carry-on bags create problems, or when there is not enough overhead space for everyone. That’s because they can more easily sell additional services like early boarding or premium seating, as a “solution” to your headache. If there were no problems and ample overhead space, people would be…

Those guys must be millionaires! I bet they get all the girls.

I’m just tired of movies and tv shows that are unable to move on. Yeah, you had a hit with one premise, but that doesn’t mean you have to duplicate everything about it the second time. Especially characters that are supposed to be dead. It’s almost as irritating as splitting a single movie into two. No matter how good…

I’m curious why they all head to the surface. I would have guessed that instinct would make them downwards, to try to hide in coral/seaweed/rocks. But I was wrong.

I’m tired of movies that only use three colors - blue, yellow, and washed-out grey. That alone makes me not want to watch this movie.

Oh, Dog! Where to start?

Pfft! Kids.

The question about the eagles never really bothered me. But after reading the answers here, I’m still wondering . . . didn’t the eagles arrive BEFORE the ring was destroyed? A lot of people are saying they stayed away because of the nazgul (however it’s spelled), and they didn’t want to make themselves targets. But…

His movies might not be Shakespeare, but Perry casts actors who are black, female, and middle-aged. How many movies in Hollywood would put middle-aged black females in prominent roles?

So Batman just inhaled a bunch of lead?

That’s my guess as well. I always thought Myrcella would be the younger, more beautiful queen (after Tommen inevitably dies) who casts Cersie down and takes all that she hold dear.
