If you really think about it, he's dead because Sy took out a loan.

Real silencers may not silence pistols, but pop culture silencers do.

I said it before, and I'll say it again (but without the animosity this time, because you're now acknowledging the intent) — this type of narrative is just kinda what you get with Fargo, and with the Coen Brothers' work as a whole. If you don't like it, that's A-OK then, and I don't know how you feel about the Coens'…

Well, shoot, that actually looks really cool.

Yes, but like I said, he's extremely average.

Actually, I usually send them to Hot Topic.

Every single day, someone walks into the Disney Store where I work asking if we have Batman stuff.

After ten months, I may finally have to just give up on House of Leaves. It's put everything else I wanted to read on hold, causing a huge backlog to form, and I'm not prepared to give up my summer reading, which I always look forward to. (It's also really hard to regularly get myself into the kind of mood where I'm…

Commissioner Gordon: "Hitchcock, Scully, where's your report on those Two-Face murders?"
Hitchcock: "Oh, well, see, we were heading down there to check it out, until we passed by Vinny's Pizza and decided to just stay there."
Scully: "But we lit the Bat-Signal!"
Gordon: "It's 2:00 PM!"

Unless the movie is fun, in which case different critics will ding it for being too lightweight.

I guess, but not much better.

RTD made it all about the Doctor where the Time War was concerned (so, like Gallifreyans and Daleks), and where Earth was concerned.

Username/Avatar/Comment synergy off the fucking charts.

There's sympathy to be had for Dracula, but - as the book demonstrates with Lucy - that sympathy should be directed towards the man he used to be. A man whose soul cannot rest because it's been replaced by this horrific being of pure evil. Sympathy should give you more incentive to destroy him, not less.

I'm not a Stephen Moffat fan by any stretch of the imagination, but his three seasons with Capaldi have been some of my favorites.

I'm still waiting for a solid miniseries that - somewhat faithfully - adapts all of the novel, and does justice to the lesser utilized characters. (I'm looking at you, John Seward.)

That would be every episode after "The Reichenbach Fall."
