"Isn't as comprehensive." That's certainly a diplomatic way to put it.

Of course the AV Club didn't bother to review MNIMN. It's only a top 2 rap release for 2013.

All of the focus on her distracts us from who really had the worst performance in the movie: Andy Garcia. Jeez, I felt like wincing every time he spoke.

Take it from a guy who doesn't own the app or a Samsung, yet have been listening to the album for days: that "(in theory)" pretty much invalidates your entire point.

Yeah, I've never been much of a Jay-Z fan, but it's absolute foolishness to claim that he's not a good MC.

"I don’t have a solution for the lack of diversity in the film-criticism discipline, but it’s a problem that there are conversations around Perry’s work that won’t take place unless a black person initiates them, and therefore almost never take place in mainstream film criticism."

Does "Revelations" start with Solonius in the arena? I loved the exchange he had with Spartacus:

I appreciated that too. I was hoping someone would shout out Melitta and Dionna as well. Especially poor, doomed Dionna.

Yeah, those were great, but we really want to see Season 1 in TV Club Classic.

So what? Breaking Bad is better than Game of Thrones. Who gives a shit? Why start an argument between Spartacus and another show that most of us probably watch and enjoy?

Favorite moments in the series:

I really enjoyed the arena battles as well, especially considering how this was the first time we saw McIntye in "the arena." He acquited himself quite well.

I don't think that's the case with Kavanaugh, and I don't think that's the case with Dutch (though I don't remember exactly how things went down with Dutch investigating the strike team).

Maybe SPOILERS (I don't think so, but tread lightly)

I have the same problem with the pilot. ZMF makes the best argument in favor of it, but I need to rewatch the series to see how well that argument works.

Yeah, when Crixus was fighting Ceaser, they locked arms, and Crixus headbutted him to the ground, which was similar to the first time Crixus fought Spartacus (with Doctore in the background saying "become entangled with a more powerful opponent, and you are dead.")

Well, jeez, Dr. J, we're not talking about all presidents, we're only talking about president's who make Asuka's insane hyperbole sound reasonable.

I recently realized that Ben Roethlisberger is the real-life Flash Gordon: kinda dumb, likely to get caught up in inappropriate sexual situations, yet able to improvise and make winning plays in total chaotic situations.
