There are two kinds of classic movies, if you ask me - the kind that people actually watch, and the kind people only talk about.

Yeah, but for a lot of 'around the world' sailors, like many of these folks are, this area is a necessary stop. Though I agree they would be safer not going there, when it is only a small percentage of their whole trip they sometimes don't consider it.

I'm not going to lie, I always thought these 'pedicures' sounded wonderful. I have a real problem with dead skin on my heels and it's not much fun to sit and stand it off myself (and the pile of my dead skin that results is pretty gross on it's own). If the fish like it, and if it is proven safe (which should be…

First lesson I'm teaching my children - NEVER LEAVE ME OLD AND ALONE WITH NOTHING BUT AN AUTOMATED STUFFED ANIMAL TO KEEP ME COMPANY!

Maybe they are paying their actors and film crew in gum and sodapop. Seems to me like the only way they could be making a profit.

Are blood tests still a requirement for marriage anywhere in the US? I know they aren't here in Wyoming. I'd always thought it was a common thing, but has it (I hope) gone out of style?

At this point he almost looks as old as his father.

Oh great, yet another endless news cycle about how we are all going to die. I never get tired of those.

So true. Limited run and limiting scoop are always good for creative ventures if you ask me. Even Doctor Who, which it seems will run forever, has only 12-13 episodes a season, where American shows like Lost dragged most seasons out to 24 episodes, which if you ask me is WAY too much room to tell a clear and well…

"J.J. Abrams is our best hope for having stories that provide enough mythos to please fans, without ever starting to look backwards too much."

Not sure if the picture will work, but this is a great image of how much land the thing has eaten.

No, that was just us io9 folks, we nerds like our chocolate too.

I'm not saying he needs to be in it, I'm saying as a man with some pull (who obviously loved being in the first one) he could grease the right wheels to get a second one in the way.

Actually I think the problem is that we all hate Bay, and rightly so. But some folks, like myself, think Bay and Synder are two sides of the same coin, and have no idea why people can't see that.

Thanks for writing this out. I have some serious problems with this sort of faux empowerment and it's something that's hard to explain to people. I think when we are talking about revenge films it's important to talk about an actually empowering movie, Kill Bill, where the Bride is never made into some…

Seriously I tired to help my nephew once with one that was a cop car and it took us about an hour to figure out how to get it to be the right shaped robot, and I'm not sure it has ever actually turned back into the cop car correctly.

Then, once you've used it all have NO paid leave left to take when, say, your kid gets sick and you have to take them to the doctor's office. But, I'm sure that almost never happens with kids in the first year of life. It's not like they have scheduled check ups and stuff that are vital to their health.

Dear Bill Murray,

He's unaware of any bodies, but he does seem to have the road map to a hell of a lot of wallets. Which, unfortunately, is all anyone seems to care about.

And people who have illnesses themselves and must take time off to recover. But, just like with pregnancy, there is no guarantee of pay. And, in fact, there is no guarantee you will have your job when you get back, just a job that is equitable in work and pay.
