I kind of feel that I shouldn’t need to see a map like this on the show’s webpage in order to get a basic grasp of the world’s geography. Especially when the show covers a lot of the said Continent.

Hmm. Passion for one’s work. Straight jacketed into maintaining a specific appearance, forced to deal with substandard writing.....

Also indicating that this is a Fast and Furious movie: repeated use of the word “family.”

I was into Dungeons and Dragons before it was cool! :)

I remember watching the original Lion King and being so blown away by the animation. There was that moment when the camera refocused on the ants walking along the tree branch in the foreground, and I just thought, “This is amazing. They can actually animate something this beautiful.”

He should go on an archaeology adventure with Vash.

Logan Paul is to YouTube what Kinja is to AV Club. Embarrassingly slow, more concerned with clicks than quality, an affront to good taste, and infuriatingly neither of them seems to be going away.

I consider Red Faction Guerrilla a hidden gem of the seventh console generation, and am happy to see the game prettied up and re-released for those who missed it the first time around. It’s not perfect, but there is certainly fun to be had.

I don’t get why RPO I should on the list. At best it was forgettable and at worst it advocates consuming art for the sake of copying the text rather than to understand the text as well as to imply that only “real nerds” can like nerdy things. It also doesn’t help that Ernest Cline, the guy who wrote the script and the…

Failure to thrive is an issue of mal- or undernourishment, yes, but the psychosocial environment the baby’s in is often a contributing factor to FTT. Lack of bonding to the mother/other caregiver and lack of physical contact are absolutely medically recognized as contributors to some (though not all) cases of FTT, and…

I think they pretty fairly showed the depressing no-win situation for what it was/is. The irony of letting someone propagate truly oppressive ideas - literally preaching at you about how you should live in perpetual subordination and never have your own voice or any kind of agency - in the name of “free speech”. The…

The thing I found most jarring (and sadly most relevant) in this episode was the flashback to Serena’s attempted speech at the university. Here they are under the protection of free speech, and whining about Serena has a ‘right to speak’ because ‘this is America!’...and their proposed initiatives involve stripping…

Next week on Westworld:

So remember back in the first episode, when the Delos QA team is executing hosts on the beach. IIRC, there was a female host that was about to get shot, but then Rebus (still obviously in his virtuous mode) steps in front of her and gets shot. That’s a nice little piece of continuity.

Oh, and The King of Comedy is another good example y’all missed.

Fuck yeah! Now they should bring back the animated series while they’re at it.
