I was a fan of the comic before I heard the movie was coming out. The movie can't help but suffer in comparison, for pretty much the reasons you gave. Ramona is a much better character in the comics, and I like the extended timeline and quieter scenes the film had no room for.

So which directors and movies aren't on your turn the nose up list, then?

I'm not too fond of the movie myself, but I really like Charles Barkley Shut Up and Jam Gaiden. Anyone ever play that game?

I thought that the people who still cling to the idea that Lazenby (or Craig for that matter) would ruin the franchise somehow were as fringe and pathetic as the "trukk not munkey" Transformers fans.

As much as I'd like to set the record straight, I got off on the very wrong foot when trying to do that the first time, and crossed a line. How's it gonna look when I dig the subject up again, out of the blue? So far I've decided to just forget it happened and never speak to him again.

One of them said something along the lines of, "if I need a flowchart guide to know when the series 'gets good', then it's not worth my time."

I actually remember that being the best episode of its season, but that was a long time ago and I was a different person back then.

My friends who wrote off Discworld after only reading The Color of Magic are far less understanding than Simpsons fans.

I wasn't talking about a Mrs. Dalloway adaptation, and I agree with you about why there isn't one. I'm sure that Age of Innocence is good for what it is, but I couldn't get invested in the setting or plot. I only watched it because it was recommended and about to get taken off my Netflix queue.

The film version of Age of Innocence and Mrs Dalloway are two things I couldn't follow at all when I first experienced them. I was so confused by the constant fluid perceptives in the book and I just kept tuning out when I watched that movie. I might give them another shot later, but I've got a lot else to cover as…

Am I the only one here who was completely unable to enjoy Breakfast at Tiffany's even a little because of Mickey Rooney's wretched performance?

Still a bit much of a stretch, like Moore's channeling Rorschach or something.

Alright, fine. But what about the interviewer's questions prompted him to go off and toss out dirty laundry on Morrison like that?

That was the moment I lost all respect for Alan Moore. IIRC, the interview wasn't about that; the question I remember was about addressing whether the sexual assaults that Moore's portrayed in his comics, but no, this spiteful old bastard had to grind his axe before disappearing off the grid like a drama llama leaving…

Does anyone else find the idea of anyone, even a teenager, memorizing Flo Rida lyrics to be hilariously preposterous? I keep forgetting he even has those.

My first favorite band was The White Stripes, and since I discovered them after they released what turned out to be their last album, they never had the chance to disappoint me. Hell, Jack's solo albums are pretty decent (Blunderbuss is fantastic, even). So I guess they're my default favorite band for reasons of…

Me too, because the biggest disappointment the show gave me is never giving Libby her own episode. So any sort of hint as to what her issues were is gonna interest me.

I know this might sound a little bit insensitive, but did anyone else laugh their asses off when they saw how Flat Top died?

Plus Jack Nicholson's character at the start reminded me of Patch Adams, which I maintain is Robin Williams' worst movie. So I was looking forward to the smothering for a while.

I refuse to believe that Millar didn't steal Red Son from Morrison (and now that you mention it, it's not as good as All-Star anyway, yeah).
