my cluttered, stray observations:

You're all forgetting to mention the tie-in soundtrack by Dr. Dre,
The Tronic

I just got Halo Anniversary too and let me tell you the game (CE) has not aged well. I know I'll be crucified for saying this but -given that it was my first time playing Halo CE ever- I really didn't care for it. I know its like one of the most beloved shooters of all time, but still.

Adventure Time's tone is all about range though (low stakes vs. high stakes episodes, deep vs. shallow narratives, light and funny vs. dark and deeply disturbing —and sometimes these things change mid-episode) so I'd say it was pretty spot on as far as AT goes…but I agree it was really unappealing -at least the look

The other annoying thing to think about in choosing channels is that most might come as package deals. For instance, you might only want MTV, but you'll probably get MTV2 too (and maybe VH1, and so on depending on ownership). Chances are you don't even want the entire channel as much as just one to three shows on it.

St. Vincent can't possibly be the most egregious offender in the unusual department when there's Marina and the Diamonds.

"Who was the wizard who supplied that muggle Bill Cosby with his love potions? I thought there was a rule against bringing magic into the outside world?"

I think the answer to the question depends on the strength of the open-world in the open-world game, and whether or not the developers decided to spend more time on fleshing the aspect of fast travel out.

I gave Robbie's blandness the benefit of the doubt because I suspected his flatness came from the fact we were still getting to know him. But now that its ending…

Same! I like all of the artists, but I feel that Tradd Moore really captured the spirit of the spirit of vengeance and co.

All New Ghost Rider was one of my favorite titles this past year and I'm sad to see it go. I was never a huge Ghost Rider fan, but I was really starting to like Robby Reyes as the new GR. And the fact that Marvel changed the game up by giving him a pretty sick car instead of the standard bike was something I latched

A politically incorrect comedy” about two friends “whose relationship is upended” when one of them starts dating a supposedly “perfect” woman.

My personal theory is that he poops out of his pores, much like he did when green arrow shot him with that horse tranquilizer a few episodes ago…and then he just crop dusts the entire city.

Some kinda really qualified mirror…guy? Pretty Good At Mirrors Person?

Yeah I get that and I agree, its just that for someone who got way too drunk (see Jay See's comment) and then was so lonely she had to ask Barry to stay with her until she fell asleep, only to be really hungover and easily irritated the next day, the last thing I would expect is a chipper "well, time to think about

Also the whole Firestorm revelation was done kind of badly.
"Wait, Cisco, enhance the video! Don't you see?!? He's clearly two dudes. Look at his eyes! Look at that other dude right there!"

Cisco breaking out the wrestling moves was surprisingly cool. Letting Hartley get the jump on him kind of killed that feeling for me though.

I agree with the whole Cisco thing: he's not my favorite character, but he got a little uncharacteristically dark in tonight's episode. Seems like they kind of glossed over that.

Man they were really baiting Caitlin/Barry this week. Wait a minute…what is this feeling?

Just consider PTSD as a kind of superpower. When that eclipse comes back and people suddenly have magical abilities, you'll just be participating in the fun!
