Sadly, Skye is a girl and therefore unworthy of stardom or even notice most of the time.

“and supersizing the characters’ armor and vehicles with a deranged zeal matched only by real police departments around the country.”

THANK YOU. Yeah, it’s completely baffling sometimes to have Skye there with her all-purpose copter and then for some reason Rubble will be dicking around with a ladder or Chase will be showing off his drone. Just hire more Skyes. 

Who is this written for? It has the tone and content of something on the front page of Yahoo or some other less entertainment focused website, not the AV Club.

Joni Mitchell liked to compare him to Yosemite Sam!

Neil Young was smart to get out when he did

I mean, look: it’s not perfect, but if you care about the source material in any way I think it’s worth seeing what they’re up to.

It bumptys the bump and thumptys the thump back in the basket!

Came her to mention that love triangle. The fact that this great essay about the movie mentioned so many things other than her liking the coach shows how really unnecessary that subplot was to the film (in addition to having Jules like him as well). Unnecessary, and though some folks may not have considered it so at…

This episode, while moderately entertaining, was just more proof (as if we needed any) that this series just has zero interest in crafting sophisticated, meaningful story arcs.

I think I meant to reply to that person myself. I doubt the author’s judgement was so clouded by their opulent Christmas tree farm lifestyle that they saw a regular, inhabitable structure and thought, “ooo, abandoned shack!” 

But they could never remake Teen Witch because it’s impossible to TOP THAT!

But Curious George... it’s like the least scary option possible. It’s like a spooky Winnie the Pooh.

Next time they tell it they should change it to some 1960's Ladybird book about Hansel and Gretel (a bit on the nose, maybe).

I hated The Scarlett Letter too but I think Hawthorne got a pass of “well, he’s from 1840, of course he sucks.” And it had some cool mutilation and fucking (implied) at least! Also, for me Hawthorne gets residual good will from the boss Young Goodman Brown.

I almost want to give Ethan Frome a second chance, because how awful of a book is this for fucking high schoolers? An alien lifestyle and choices that approximately zero teens have ever had to make, tied to a cold and dry style. No wonder I hated it. But on the other hand, that fact that you could write a term paper…

I’ll see your Ethan Frome and raise you The Scarlet Letter. :)

Ha ha, Ethan Frome! Possibly the most hated of all high school books.

“The subtexts are now literal, which means that there aren’t any subtexts at all.”

This story is true, but names have been changed to protect my password verification questions.

Years ago, I was living in an apartment with my cat Coco. We lived there happily many years, but I wanted a dog too so I bought a house with a yard. Being an old fellow, Coco was upset by the move and was especially freaked…

I feel like Kim...does not want to figure out how to semi-script what is going on with Kanye into a palatable E! format that Andy Cohen can make jokes about.
