You are not the only one!

Eh, I thought it was fun. But then I also enjoy BBT, so clearly I am not to be trusted.

I will enthusiastically agree that "Armada" was a wide assortment of pop-culture lampshades in the service of a "Look Mom! I told you video games were worthwhile!" narrative, but I enjoyed the hell out of "Ready Player One." They talk about not being able to put a book down, but in all seriousness, it was one of the…

I was cracking wise about being one space away from filling out my MST3K Nerd Bingo card, and nearly used "the Mythbusters" as my example. And then they go and announce Adam Savage. How is it that Wheaton, Takei and Fillion aren't involved by now?

BINGO!

I really hope that you're trolling when you suggest that no one cares about the gender of those characters. Do you recall all the flack Joss Whedon got a few months back when people inferred that he thought Black Widow's infertility made her a "monster?"

I see your point, but let's all stop for a minute to imagine the reaction of the Men's Rights contingent if Superman was replaced by a "girl."

Not disagreeing about the insularity, but for what it's worth, Lucy Lane was introduced in the comics back in '59 specifically to serve as Jimmy (er, James) Olsen's love interest.

See, that's the thing. I can totally understand not "being high" on this—or any—show. It's that the flaws that people are pointing out are relatively minor and completely fixable. At its worst, "Supergirl" is innocuous fun.

Yes, this. Look at any comments section, anywhere, and you'll see evidence that the sledgehammer approach to feminism is very much in need.

I know that this is the Internet, and a comments section to boot, but for cripes' sake, the vitriol aimed at this show is unwarranted. Yes, there's room for improvement, but it's very, very early. (Consider where "Buffy" was after six episodes; Xander had been possessed by a hyena and nearly devoured by a giant…

I don't believe that there's a National City in the comics, but the one in the series is presumably named after National Periodical Publications, the company that eventually became DC Comics.

But those works still exist. Heck, many of them are still being reprinted. They just don't have the imprimature of having "actually happened."

The World is Not Enough is one of my favorite Bond movies. Sophie Marceau brings both nuance and viciousness to her part. (Isn't she the only female master villain of the franchise?)

For me, this is a list of nine things I can happily do without. (#10 - #12 are the exceptions.) Mara Jade and Thrawn come close, but like much of the EU, they are so badass and hyper-competent that they overshadow the film characters. Thrawn's infallibility annoyed me. He's constantly three steps ahead of the heroes,…

If I could like this twice (or ten times), I would.

I continue to be boggled by the love for "Skyfall." For me, it's the one in which Bond spends much of the film in his family home moping about his lousy childhood. The stakes—an overly-elaborate plot to murder M—are even lower than the Bolivian water-theft of "Quantum of Solace." And Bond fails to stop it.

I was cheesed off by those arbitrary eliminations. My favorite would-have-been superhero was Monkey Woman, not just for her skimpy costume, but because of her legitimately impressive performance in the "get attacked by dogs" challenge. And then Stan booted her because "a superhero would NEVER reveal her secret…

FWIW, in the original story the creature was strictly confined to the surface of the lake It did, however, have one additional ability: swirling colors that had something of a hypnotic effect on potential victims. The end of the story is the final survivor realizing that he has no hope of reaching shore and consigning…

I'd have been happier if this had been "the real Creepshow *2*." I see a lot of love for "The Raft" in these comments, but C2 was a huge letdown for me, lacking the humor and comic-book aesthetic of the original. That said, "The Raft" is good, thanks to the source material. At least, up until they ruin the whole…
