I don't know. I've read more of the jokes online than I've actually seen from his performance and thought they were all pretty lazy. Hell, the President's speech had much better joke writing than he did.

I honestly think that Disney will do whatever they feel like will get them the best press and make them the most money. If they thought that making two characters gay will do that, then they'd do that. The trick is getting them to the point where they think it's financially in their best interest.

And my point is that pointing out that the depiction of romance in Star Wars is simplistic doesn't mean that there can't be gay couples in Star Wars. A gay relationship can be presented in a simplistic, middle school version of romance just as well as a straight one.

Also, all dead.

Why not? The straight characters got that.

Yeah, I think its shortness is what did it. All of the songs are good, but it doesn't feel like an album as much as a long EP.

God, I hope this doesn't put Duncan Jones in director jail. He's too talented for that.

I don't know why I thought this was gonna be about Nixon.

I was talking about this video at work the other day and no one knew what I was talking about and I realized that this is it; I'm old now.

This is the one I came here to say. Whenever I reread the books, McKellen's version of the character is the only one that has definitively replaced whatever version existed in my head already.

At least Yeezes's songs feel like SONGS. Everything on TLOP feels like half-finished. Like a compilation of early demos for an album more than an actual album.

He's also really neat.

That line made me laugh because Russell T Davies wanted so hard for Doctor Who to be a Britsh Buffy.

Hell, I'd be surprised to see Faction Paradox referenced on a Doctor Who site. Seeing it here is shocking.

His Oh Hello! interview, however, is one hundred percent genuine, especially the moment when George Clooney, the beloved on-set prahnkster, gets a prahnk of his own: a sandwich with entirely too much tunafish.

In NYC, there's a bunch of subway ads for Not Safe where a bunch of people in the park are labeled according to their sexual fetishes/secrets/what have you. And when I first saw the ad, I was stopped in my tracks because one woman was labed "Squirter", which seemed like a pretty explicit thing to put on a subway ad.…

I'm getting really sick of guys named Todd.

"PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION!" was definitely one of the weirder Schoolhouse Rock songs.

Dammit, AV Club, you made me think they'd announced a name already! Because everyone else obsessively follows Doctor Who news and thus knows about that thing Peter Capaldi said already. Right? …Right?

It's weird that my main take-away from this episode wasn't "That was funny" (it was, but mostly around the margins) but "Wow, she's a really good actor."
