Nobody on the East Coast calls the Atlantic Ocean the sea!

Brees is experiencing the same physical decline as late-career Peyton, Favre or Brady. He'll never have the same deep ball accuracy again. But elite QBs can make the necessary adjustments to stay on the field and win using their football smarts. They just need the weapons to work within their limitations. Peyton…
Yeah, but we literally never see anything about the military's reaction to the zombies in the comic. The flagship series has shown us just the barest part of this, by including that helicopter in the pilot and showing us abandoned military bases and that scene where the Governor kills some isolated soldiers. But all…
The detox episodes have only just begun! His mom scored him some sweet oxycontin at the end of the episode. Giving him just enough Popeye spinach to make it out of LA without getting eaten by walkers, but not enough willpower to spare us from multiple episodes in which he either hallucinates through detox, or forces…
What's ironic is that many "real" sports fans who say this are blind to the way that every major sport constructs its own off-the-field reality show.
That's true, but that's kind of like saying lung cancer is better than pancreatic cancer.
My prediction is that the standalone Batman movies will be prequels to Batman v. Superman, and they'll basically be adaptations of comic storylines like Death in the Family, The Killing Joke and Under the Red Hood. These stories don't feature a particularly young Batman, so Affleck's age won't be a problem (he's only…
It seems like they drew a line at Kilborn-holdover correspondents like Littleford who didn't last long into the Stewart era. I'm guessing a lot of them didn't leave on great terms, considering how immediately Stewart changed the whole tone of the show. And this wasn't the last episode of The Daily Show, it was the…
I'm sure that's all true, but in a case like this Trank's job was to take one for the team. I get that it's probably really difficult to do that, especially if he went into the project as a huge Fantastic Four fan. But the suits can forgive a botched superhero movie. They can't forgive nasty finger-pointing tweets.…
That's not what he's saying at all. It's true that Woody Allen never had the focus or obsession to create a movie on par with The Godfather. But then neither has Coppola in over 30 years. Allen cranks out a movie a year and releases it no matter how unfinished or half-baked. This is a pretty common criticism of…
I wish anyone else involved in that production had been half as passionate as Bale was during that rant. It's a shame he didn't put any of that energy into his performance. He was much angrier at the DP for ruining his take than his John Connor ever was towards Skynet.
But we learned so much new information about the Terminator universe in the later films! Like the fact that the Future War actually went on for many years before Skynet invented purple laser guns. And, uh, John Connor eventually gets married and has kids that Kyle Reese never mentioned despite those being his…
One answer is yes — a 35mm release print in 1991 contained substantially the same visual information as the Netflix stream you watched on your modern HDTV. If anything the release print was much more detailed. If you were looking closely at the T-800 on his motorcycle in the theater, you would be able to tell easily…
Romero's Day of the Dead suggested that zombies have a shelf-life of about 10-15 years. So maybe at some point, the zombie virus burns itself out of the survivors (meaning no new zombies), and then a few seasons later all of the existing zombies eventually rot away. The survivors would still be in a pretty bad spot…
Rick still has two hands, yet the series continues at a fast clip. They seem to avoid disfiguring any of the main characters for budgetary reasons. Glenn's meeting with Lucille would seem to be about a season away.
I loved playing City and Origins, and I'm having a lot of fun with Knight. But Arkham Asylum is one of the best games ever made, and I think it got all the elements just right. The later installments are all a little off-balance in odd ways. The interactive crime scenes are a pretty novel solution to the problem…
I also think the later games went way too far over the top in terms of making the gadgets magical. It's a fine line with Batman, but generally I think he should have access to cutting-edge military hardware that's maybe 5-10 years ahead of what's available. But the later games in the series give you ridiculous,…
I think the writers during the early seasons weren't all that interested in the interplay between Bart/Lisa and Rod/Todd at school, which is why you only see the Flanders kids in the background. There would be some redundancy there, because both Bart and Lisa have characters like Ralph and Martin who annoy the…
By the time you get to Viva Ned Flanders, it's like the writers are throwing darts at a wall full of wacky plot twists involving beloved characters. Once they went to the well of Armin Tamzarian, why not make Flanders a 60-year-old, and turn him and Homer into bigamists?
It seems like Stewart only really decided he wanted to leave the show in the months before his announcement. By that time, John Oliver and Stephen Colbert were already locked down to iron-clad contracts elsewhere. There was no reason for Comedy Central to really fight for them on their way out the door, because they…
