A decent film, but utterly devoid of the creative flair that was once the staple of Tim Burton's brand. I felt like this movie would most naturally exist as an HBO biopic.

Kevin Smith gets my award for best parlaying of minor success into a career. Clerks was a classic of low budget indie cinema, and it came along at a time when Hollywood was mining the indie movement for hot new directors. But everything he's touched since Clerks has been more or less unwatchable. The fact that he…

I thought this was a pretty disappointing episode. Aside from some funny moments (Adam in a depression med commercial? It's the role he was born to play!), it just seemed to wallow in the inertia of everything that had been resolved at the end of Season 3 without moving the ball forward at all. Adam has checked out of…

For me, it would be Jodorowsky's The Dance of Reality. Stunningly beautiful, but it never feels affected, and it carries a genuine emotional wallop.

To be fair, Beth sort of brought that on herself.

On one hand, I'd be pissed if that stupid preacher almost got everyone killed by leading a horde of zombies back to the church. On the other hand, it was totally worth it to see them walk under that sign that read, "He who drinks of my blood and eats of my flesh shall have eternal life." Best visual in zombie history.

I can understand that once in the Tesseract time becomes nonlinear and thus you can manipulate the past and future, but this does not resolve the time paradox of how they got to the Tesseract in the first place.

When Glenn Beck comes to your defense, it's time to leave the country.

Either of those would have been a better ending.

For me the truly great episodes are the ones that tie everything together at the end with pithy commentary, but beyond that, I judge an episode by how many times it makes me laugh out loud. This one got me at least three or four times. One of the best episodes of South Park in years.

I thought they had been set up like that because they were all perfectly zipped up in their tents and sleeping bags so they couldn't get out, which seems strange that they would do that to themselves, and en masse. Or that they would be camping on a skybridge.

I generally don't like the tangential episodes as much as the ones that advance the central plot, but this one had such great atmospheric tension that it's one of my favorite episodes in the season thus far. I love it when the characters are confronted with bits and pieces of their pre-plague past, those moments where…

Sure, but I could do with one Cartman/Butters episode every season, though. The Cartman/Butters thing was the only thing that worked for me in last night's episode, so why mix our chocolate with Orbitz soda simply for the sake of novelty?

The rightful King of Colas.

Yeah, and it's always great.

I seriously thought everyone was going to be pissed at Eugene after the water cannon scene, instead they were all high-fiving him for spending 500 gallons of water to win a fight they seemed to have well under control.

Whoa! In a way, Eugene DID save Abraham's life! Seriously, though, an A? I love the Walking Dead, but Abraham's back story was predicated on much-trod cliches, i.e. becoming a monster to protect the ones you love (and in doing so, losing their love), and then preparing to kill yourself until given a sign at the last…

I pretty much agree with the review. The scenes with Cartman fooling Butters into thinking he was in the Oculus were amazing— classic South Park. Then it digresses into a pointless and convoluted parody of customer service and Philip K. Dick reality traps. It would have been much better if the episode had been about…

Of course, the notion that they're merely expecting people to repay them for the expenses incurred to save their lives is completely undermined by the fact that the officers are actively looking for people to "rescue." Why would you do that if it were such a resource burden to you? I'm guessing that they're collecting…
