If this is true you're about to save my life, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this perfectly simple sounding exercise. Help a brother out?

Aw man, I posted a response to this but it looks like Disqus chewed it up. In summary: I agree. Basically I was arguing that even though the series has a long history of being indulgent with its incomprehensible anime horseshit, the best entries in the series manage to have very clear fundamentals all the same. In…

Oh my God, please tell me that Blake Shelton link deliberately goes nowhere, because that says way more about Blake Shelton than any site you could conceivably have linked to.

I think I'm going to cave and buy Bravely Default. I've been seriously itching for a new JRPG style adventure, and I think it might hit that particular spot for me. I've been playing the demo, and actually really enjoying it (not often do you come across a demo you can play for six hours without seeing everything.) My…

I thought this episode was the best of the season, but it still had massive, distracting problems as far as I was concerned. In an effort to be brief: I don't like Magnussen as a villain and I like even less how his story was resolved.

The PSH/Joaquin acting showdown session in The Master. Great scene for both of them- Phoenix gets all the showier face slapping/farting/chuckling/single tear rolling down face stuff, but Hoffman grounds the scene terrifically and is wonderful in it himself. The two of them knew when to allow each other to take over a…

About 18 months ago on this very site, I proposed that Philip Seymour Hoffman was the "best actor currently working in Hollywood," and I never changed my mind about that. One of my favourite actors, not just from the last several years, but ever. I'm going to have to rewatch The Master tonight as a sort of tribute. He…

I've never really wanted kids, but I've always wanted to be able to make really corny dad jokes.

"A whole lot" of script rewrites nothin', this movie was in some stage of production for 70 years. Walt Disney himself took a crack at writing a version of The Snow Queen back in the 40's, and there's basically never been a period of the studio's history when somebody wasn't tinkering with it.

I Want To Be Your Canary would make a pretty good show, even if it is basically Romeo and Juliet with meteor-summoning special effects and flamenco music.

Oh man, getting a real Blasto movie would be amazing. Didn't Dark Horse make a one-off Blasto comic?

Is 'Loveless' from FFVII an opera? I think all the concrete information we have about it is that Cid slept through it once.

I already liked the new costume in the promotional shot, but seeing it in motion in some of the leaked location shots and videos it looks way better. I'm really hyped.

I think it really improved the show when [whichever actor you liked least] left Doctor Who.

Oh! And in case anyone hasn't heard yet, several of the Eighth Doctor's Main Range titles (from Scherzo all the way to Army of Death, to date the Eighth's last Main Range title) as well as Dark Eyes are on sale now over at Big Finish to celebrate Dark Eyes winning the BBC Audio Drama Award. Those Main Range titles are…

Speaking of introductions to Romana, I really love the scene where the Doctor introduces his new and old companions. "Romana this is Charley, one of my best ever friends! Charley this is Romana, one of my best friends ever!" Like a loyal puppy sometimes, he is.

Salutations compadres and welcome back to the Big Finish Doctor Who Audio Drama Digest. On the menu this week:

Fun fact: Alfie Enoch's (Dean Thomas if you prefer) father is William Russell, aka Ian Chesterton, companion to the First Doctor.

Ever since hearing a commenter on these boards mentioning the Lovecraftian connection I've been doubly digging this show. I hope that's the direction it's going in. Towards the end of the episode, when we had that wide shot of that meth plantation place, on the left there was a building with a character coming out of…

Welp, I just bought another ten Eighth Doctor stories. Actually, thanks to strategically jumping between massive sales, I've now managed to purchase every Main Range Eighth Doctor story on sale, sometimes for as little as a third of the standard price. What do you think: should I buy Dark Eyes now and sit on it until…
