The reason Machete Kills did so poorly wasn't because it was a shlocky, B-movie that debuted in theaters. The reason it did poorly as because it was a terrible movie. The original Machete may not have been anywhere near high cinema, but it at least had a coherent story and everyone under-played their parts. It was

I clicked into this going, "Stargirl? Like, JSA Stargirl? The Star Spangled Girl? DC Is gonna adapt that character into a movie? What fucking universe are we living in."

Gah, Troop Beverly Hills used to play on a constant loop back in the day. I blame HBO for ensuring we'll all remember this movie long past the heat death of the universe.

*pushes up nerd glasses* it's Vanellope von Schweetz, not Vanellope Glitch. *sniff*

Everytime time I see him in something (especially a love scene) I always have to say, "ahhh yeah, time to get a bit of that Whitman sampler."

You know, for years I've jokingly said*,"show us on the sandwich where the bad man tuched you," just because I liked the absurdity of the juxtaposition. I guess I have to retire that, now.

I fully support a widespread return of the "semaphore drop".

I unironically love this show. I know part of it is because it was on saturday afternoons while I was growing up, so there's a little of the rose-tinted glasses, but this show was just stupid goofy fun. When ESPN Classic was running the whole series for a while I watched my way through the entire run. It was great

AMC, not NBC. Lower ratings requirements… Plus, for some reason it struck a chord. Probably because Don Draper wasn't going around cutting up and eating other ad men.

I like Hannibal. A lot. But this current season has been especially slow. It's thought provoking and very beautiful to watch, but your usual, casual viewer isn't going to find anything they want to see this season.

Salmon Ladder vs. Ultimate Cliff Hanger. First season ends with Ladder defeated by Hanger. Then, throughout second season, Ladder has to rebuild itself so as to earn the right to be the victor and properly defeat Cliff Hanger. Sadly third season isn't able to live up to the suspense of the previous seasons and

I'm definately in the Chrono Trigger camp. I love that game so hard and while I keep going back to it, over and over, nothing has ever topped that first wonderful playthrough. It remains my favorite game of all time and I'd love to be able to go back, explore the different eras, fight Magus, gain Magus, and save

I'm glad I'm not the only one that does that,

I think the reason the movie worked for me is because I could understand, to an extent, what the employees were fighting for. I worked for a corporate-chain video store and, even in those surroundings, I grew to enjoy the people I worked with and the place I was working at. Most of the movies that came out at the time

How I Met Your Mother. There's a show that went six seasons too long.

…I don't know how I would feel about it without the disclaimer. You raise a good point, but I think the bigger issue is the looping story. If it had only been a couple of books (instead of 7 tomes) I probably could have stomached it. As it was… no. Just, just no.

Exactly. He is improving, but the ending was a cop out. We didn't read through 7 books (or 8 if you bothered with the later midquel, or more if you also picked up all the comics) to get the middle part of a story that loops over and over on itself.

Didn't they already made the Illiad into a movie fairly recently. It was called Troy.

I'm with Hughes on The Dark Tower — that was such a crappy way to end the series (even if there was a hint that this time through the loop things might be different). It's the kind of ending novice gamers make for an RPG session: "And through the magic portal you are transported to the beginning of your quest as if

Well, really, DC has to protect any trademark they have — that's how to laws around them work. A magazine (which is in the same trademarkable zone as comic books) with the name "Robyn" is close enough that were DC to let that one slide, the trademark "confusion" comes about not because anyone would confuse Rhianna
