Finally we won’t have to watch the actor fiddling with the steering wheel pretending to drive while the car is either in a soundstage or on the back of a flatbed truck.

Just what we need: our Robot Overlords humiliating us at dodgeball! As if world domination wasn't bad enough. . .

"there doesn't seem to be a reason for his existence other than to delay the real plot" Pretty much sums up the entire series — except for the part about "the real plot".

So much for the "folk process".

I love that story. I fear for the film.

The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse! (Half the cartoons in this list would not be here were it not for the reboot of this mighty little mouse!)

And that, folks, is why mammals beat out the dinosaurs!

Otherwise, anyone could walk in and mess with you and you would never know they were there. Maybe someone should make an Oculus Rift Isolation…

"I felt a great disturbance in France, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."

I'm not from Memphis, but I'm told that the ghost of Elvis makes an appearance from time to time!

Do they get to tell each other their real names now?

I have a generic email address (i.e. just a name with no numbers after it) which would be great except every idiot with the same name signs me up for every idiotic service they can find thinking it is their own account - including online dating!
