Hence the "not always well executed"… That said, the idea that Pa Kent would suggest to a young Clark that sometimes he might have to let people be hurt to protect his secret (and then falls on that sword) is an interesting one. It violates the nature of the character and the relationship, and shouldn't be in a…

Thanks!

100% with the McElroys! Also, I hadn't considered video games until you mentioned the medium — I'd nominate Joel and Ellie from The Last of Us.

I always liked the Ma and Pa Kent/Superman relationship — while not always well executed, the idea of a modest, humble family instilling a moral code of decency into an alien with the power to destroy all humanity, should he choose, is pretty cool to me.

Um, speaking of coherence…can you explain what you're talking about, because I honestly have NO idea what your point is…

I would say so…having not seen this, of course.

Which one? I totally missed that…

I know Colter said that the original costume with the yellow blouse and tiara was a deal-breaker, but I would be very pleased if there was a costume montage in which he tries it on. Set to Chin Music by Method Man or something…

We disagree.

Thank you, Mr. Dowd, for pointing out that Hollywood should be looking more towards movies with decent premises and failed execution when it comes to remake fodder. I get they're generally looking for positive name recognition, and thus choose to remake films with stronger reputations, but there are TONS of movies…

Well before the Nazis went and fucked it up, it was (and still is, really) a very important symbol of Eastern religions…it's not like the town was named after the Third Reich

Once they did start advertising it was absolutely insufferable. They ran the same exact ad on every network during every ad break — I suspect a ton of people refused to subscribe just because they were so annoyed. (I only have it because it comes free with my cable subscription…it's actually a really good service)

There is a town in Ontario called Swastika, and one in Newfoundland called Dildo…

I find shomi's movie selection, especially with regards to older films, to be superior to Netflix's in almost every way. As far as TV, it's pretty strong too; I find it odd, though, that there are shows from the same network on different services (e.g. - New Girl and Brooklyn Nine-Nine)…

101. It's Pat

Or the story about the CFL player who was shot to death in Calgary (it makes more sense that one wouldn't be a big news story in the US…). Three sports deaths in one day…I suspect the difference is most news outlets had a ready-made package for the octogenarian who was known to be in bad health, limiting the amount…

The NewsWire seems to be a day or two behind sometimes…

Beat me to the punch on this one…there's plenty of ways around the type of discrimination that would normally apply to employers because said character "needs" to be such-and-such. While, lately, we've seen this start to erode (Idris Elba as Roland Deschain; Katee Sackhoff as Starbuck; pretty much the entire cast of…

I've clarified to a few others that I don't include people who actually have legitimate reasons for following any kind of diet in my statement, something I should have been clearer about. You certainly don't have to justify anything to me, but at the same time I've never encountered you pushing anything on anyone, so…

Good to hear, thanks for saying so :) I could have been more clear that I understand there are people who have real medical issues and my problem isn't with them.
