Wow, I never had even heard of Game of Silence, and the only reason I heard of Heartbeat is because I remember the picture of Melissa George in articles about last year's fall TV season, and I still remember her from Alias' sort of awful third season. There were quite a few shows on NBC that were canceled that I never…

Countless award-winning and critically favored movies, especially of the indie variety. Just because a movie has a unique look and only cost $1 million to make doesn't make it good. Fuck all those critics who said The Squid and the Whale was a good movie. I'd rather watch a Transformers movie over that sort of grossly…

I watched the entire season, and I enjoyed the show, but it just didn't click completely in place for me. I've always said that for me to really enjoy a sitcom on TV, that sitcom has to show its heart. Community did it early on. New Girl did it on its first Christmas episode. I can think of examples for Parks and Rec,…

*Uncle.

Those detractors are in a very, very small minority though. I wasn't even fully aware of popular music very much at that time, but I do remember people making a big deal out of it when it came out. It also helped that MTV played the hell out of the video of Paranoid Android, too. I remember catching the video at…

I once heard a story from a friend of a friend that some people (maybe it was this friend of a friend, maybe not) clearly recognized him while eating at a restaurant but left him alone. Keanu recognized that they recognized him, and paid their bill because they showed some restraint and didn't approach him at all.…

Sprague Grayden! I loved her name, and would constantly shout it out every time she came up during the opening credits for this show. That's what I remember the most about the whole thing.

Gotcha. I guess I understand Blair's point-of-view. She really didn't have a whole lot to do, but I hope she comes back to some capacity. She's a good actress and it was cool to see her and Ron Rifkin as the parents when you would expect them in different sort of roles given their recent output.

I had some issues with the finale, but I just thought the episode felt rushed and a lot of the resolution happened just because it predetermined to happen because it was the finale. And they couldn't get Blair Brown to be in the episode? I know Brian and his dad have had plenty of one-on-one moments, but for this…

Even though I bought a PS4 two years ago, the last five or so years has seen me being primarily a PC gamer. But I recently booted my XBox 360 and rediscovered what a joy Red Dead Redemption was. Sure, it's very Rockstar-y, which it seems I can only handle up to a point these days, but I genuinely love the atmosphere…

Except in Edge of Tomorrow, where he was a cocky douchebag who got killed, over and over and over again in front of millions of joyous eyes!

I really like this album, but it seems to be pretty divisive among fans (at least from the comments I've read on the artist page on last.fm). It might end up being my favorite of theirs/his though. Previous albums have sort of lost me from time-to-time, even though they all have strong individual moments. I love the…

Enjoy the Silence is one of my favorite songs ever, and Midnight City is one of my favorite songs of the last five years, and I never drew the comparison ever. I guess I would need to listen to them back-to-back. I don't really know much about the technical side of music either, but I would say Midnight City has far…

Coming soon to FX!

I have probably played the opening chunk (to, say, a little past the beach storming) more than any other game. I played to roughly that same point within the last couple of years when it was released on Steam (side note: modding the game to use the orchestral soundtrack = LOVE). And wow! I realized I have a tremendous…

Well, they did say they were planning on making multiples games at first, but instead decided to go the movie route with Kingsglaive. I'm slightly impressed they held themselves back enough to just make the movie instead. At least then all the side stuff will already be out before we can decide if we want it or not,…

Despite all of the ridiculousness of the original movies, I think even the child version of me looked at characters like Krang, Bebop, and Rocksteady and thought 'Yeah, that wouldn't work in live action.' I'm glad rational adult screenwriters Josh Applebaum and Andre Nemec proved wide-eyed innocent 8-year-old me wrong!

Is it?

Agreed. I mean, I didn't like Brand New's first album even when I was that age of a person that it was supposed to appeal to, but the following two albums still hold up even though they're angsty and seem a little dated at this point. I didn't care for Daisy much either, but those middle two albums were still some of…

Well, I also sort of have a big problem with Rhianna. Can't really explain why, but she really bothers me. I'm not sure how much she is or isn't in the movie, but I don't think I could really watch her in anything, especially a movie that wasn't very good.
