I was a big Transformers fan as a kid in the '80s. Collected toys (Autobots only) and every issue of the Marvel comic, watched the cartoon, saw this movie in the theater, cried, and loved it ever since.

Joel McHale would be my choice.

I think he could be an RnB star now, just as easily.

I ate at a Culver's many years ago on a trip through the Midwest, but don't remember it well, aside from the fact that it hit the spot at the time. They're finally starting to expand into Florida, so I look forward to getting one within a reasonable drive to try it again. I've visited the website, and the menu looks…

I watched the first season of Empire and laughed at Hakeem's music, but Jamal/Jussie is insanely talented and truly looks like the happiest person in the world whenever he sings.

Only the video, definitely not the song.

The kid was good, but I love that verse. Nicki Minaj exploded onto the scene with it, and she showed up Kanye and Jay-Z (and Rick Ross, which doesn't take much) in the same song. It was probably the highlight of Kanye's album, which was already pretty great, and she established herself as a talented, badass,…

I've never read this book, but I generally like Steinbeck, and East of Eden and The Grapes of Wrath were both adapted into awesome movies.

I think Lin-Manuel Miranda is playing a chimney sweep in this.

About two years ago, I tracked down every issue of Ostrander's original Suicide Squad series, all the crossovers into other titles (Checkmate, Firestorm, Captain Atom, the one JLI issue, etc.), his Deadshot miniseries, the mid-'00s miniseries, and random other Suicide Squad and Deadshot appearances (like the Secret…

My brother and I were strangely obsessed with Quackbusters when we were kids, and still bust out random obscure quotes from time to time, like "The money supply is dwindling! We're down to our last million!" We rented the VHS tape a lot from Major Video, as well as all the Looney Tunes compilations we could get.

I find her incredibly sexy and funny and charismatic, so it's a shame Two Broke Girls is one of the most aggressively unfunny shows I've ever seen. I can't even watch it on mute, just to enjoy looking at her, it's that bad.

I always wished Kat Dennings had been cast as Thor's love interest instead of Natalie, the little wooden girl. Kat could have still been the wise-cracking, eye-rolling comic relief, and I would have enjoyed seeing her have a larger role in those movies.

Can't wait for the new season, especially for more Kether Donohue on my TV every week.

Brandon Routh was always written as the Ted Kord Blue Beetle — an affable nerd/dork/mensch. Ray Palmer was always more of a blank slate, personality-wise. It was clear the writers wanted to use Ted, considering they name-dropped him and KORD Omniversal from the very first season of Arrow. And he would have made…

I watched the first one last night, and my wife and I loved it. It was long, but the pacing was fine. It looked amazing, the music was all spot-on, the actors were awesome, and it had this larger-than-life, almost mythical quality to it all. I love old-school hip hop and its rich cultural history (huge fan of Ed…

I hated finding that out.

I absolutely loved Hip Hop Family Tree. What a labor of love from Piskor, and the books themselves are gorgeous. I got my public library to order all three volumes, since everyone should be discovering them.

I always wanted a Starman show so badly. Back in the day, James Robinson said Jonathan Pryce would make a great Shade, and Tony Harris suggested Justin Theroux as Jack Knight. Now I always envision them.

I hope Pied Piper is in these episodes. Andy Mientus is another Broadway guy.
