My favorite new show was about a brilliant nihilist and his sometimes rocky relationship with his more mundane partner.

Did he defeat them by doing a backflip? I don't remember in this particular case, but that was his general MO.

Christmas in July is a good movie. Doesn't get nearly enough praise.

That Star Trek episode is something else. Scotty goes on a misogynistic killing spree. The local authorities rightly arrest him. Kirk spends the episode pretending that he can't interfere with a local investigation while secretly undermining it at every step, all to get his clearly guilty friend off the hook. At…

My brother was planning on doing this exact same idea but with brownies about two years ago. If only he hadn't been so lazy.

My favorite exchange is such a small moment I never see it quoted it, but to me it perfectly encapsulates George and Jerry's relationship.

While Todd's rule of the tv section has been heavy handed at times, comparing him to Jabba the Hutt seems a bit harsh. Though I suppose after having Dave Sims frozen in carbonite and placed in his office it was kind of inevitable.

Tell me about it. All my friends went, but I decided to pass as Tobias had described it as a sugar headache and I already had a headache that day. I caught it after it came out on blu-ray in October 08. The ugliness in the lead up to the election had me in a foul mood. It was pretty clear by that point that the…

It usually, rightly, gets a lot of love in the comments. For some reason it didn't in the last newswire article about the Wachowskis (Jupiter Rising delay, I think), and I was seriously bummed. I wasn't sure if a bunch of people had missed the Speed Racer critical re-evaluation, or if we were seeing the backlash to…

As long as he's not doing the lettering

I hadn't realized that the Krabby Patty had a secret formula. That makes this video on how to make one all the more valuable.

I agree that the #notallmen is a stupid reflexive and unnecessary defensiveness that misses the point, but man am I not comfortable with the skittles/M&Ms analogy. If construed in the right way it can be fine, but it's close enough to so so many horrible racist/Islamophobic arguments for profiling that I've seen that…

Narp?

The problem with Meet the Spartans wasn't that 300 wasn't worthy of satire; it's that it was a piece of fucking shit.

We didn't. We gave a shit about Edgar Wright.

I think you mean Dazzler, sir.

I could suspend my disbelief on that. That the FBI would care about entrapment is my line. It's their primary tactic on domestic terrorism cases.

For some reason I clicked this review right before watching the episode. All I read was the subtitle, but that was enough for me to be pretty sure she was coming back. But by the time she showed up I was so enraptured that it was still quite a jolt. Such a strong hour that even spoiling myself didn't hurt my…

No, that was totally Dragonstone.

Yes, you're the only one. Congratulations on being the unique snowflake that you are.
