That's a good theory. I just hope they don't write off the White Walkers in one or two episodes in order to deal with psycho Cersei and the throne.

I've got an idea of where this show can go with eight episodes left; all my friends laugh me off, but hear me out.

All these '97 articles are bringing back memories. I remember how stoked all my childhood friends were when one of them managed to get his hands on a copy of MK for Genesis; we spent hours on end at that guy's house mashing buttons, trying to get the fatalities to work. Most of my buddies gave up after a while and…

I saw that happen in Sega's Eternal Champions, which had some pretty cool level finishers. You could get shot in a drive-by by 1930s gangsters, get napalmed by a chopper in Vietnam or tossed into an electrical billboard (and your eye would pop out and hit the ground). Damn, I miss that game.

Every track on that album is a damn treasure. Even "Television", which I consider the weakest, still has something going for it.

And that phenomena was short lived… nowadays no one seems to give a shit about Avatar, which doesn't bode well for the sequels.

I have a soft spot for it, mostly because I listened to it nonstop for months on end, at least until I got my hands on Stranger Than Fiction. Having listened to almost all of BR's discography since then, New America is probably the poppiest they've ever been, but it's not a bad album.

This article brought back memories. Back in my early college years, I used to spend whatever money I had saved up on CDs, which meant that I now own a lot of (potentially embarrassing) early 2000s nu-metal/rock stuff, like Crazy Town's first two albums (the second one is a lot better than people give it credit for,…

Yep, he's in there in a small part as a nerdy hotel clerk who gets brutally killed. He's virtually unrecognizable in thick glasses and moustache.

I thought he was alright, but got too little screentime. Hopefully now that he's outed as Blofeld (it was obvious as soon as you spotted the cat) and got that gnarly facial scar, they'll give him more to do (and more scenery to chew on).

Hell yes, Smokin' Aces is a fun watch and really throws curveballs at you at every turn (mostly relating to who lives and dies). What surprised me is how damn serious it gets at the end, when I was expecting a mindless, goofy action movie (which it still is). Also, Alicia Keys looked amazingly hot in this.

It would be a shame, but as long as we're talking about potential Bonds, I'll throw out a vote for Tom Hiddleston. Looks the part, and I can buy him as an action hero after Skull Island.

Thanks for clearing all this up guys! Like I mentioned, I've never watched the older Bond movies (or read the novels) so I didn't know about Tracy or his parents.

I had no interest in Bond before Casino Royale came along; I had watched some of the Brosnan ones, liked Goldeneye but thought the others got progressively stupider (Die Another Day, with the tsunami surfing, invisible car, wretched Madonna song and the main villain outfitted in what looked like a prototype Iron Man…

I've never seen Donnie Yen's HK films, only clips of his fight scenes; that was enough to know the guy's a total badass and has mountains of charisma. Really glad he got bigger international exposure in Rogue One, even though most of my friends found Chirrut boring and I tried as hard as I could to get them to watch…

The twist for me was that Shyamalan had once again made me watch a comic book movie without realizing it. Just when I thought it was getting too fantastical/unreal and over-the-top, the ending made it all make sense.

I don't know anything about cars or car culture, and aren't really interested (in fact, I only learned how to drive a couple of years ago and I'm over 30), so I never saw what all the fuss was about with Cars. After watching it many times over the years (mostly thanks to TNT, who insists on replaying it non-stop every…

This is my first ever time commenting on here, and it gives me a chance to say goodbye to this column which I've been reading for years; it's never not interesting.
