Fascinating!

Right. Thank you. My term was a bit ambiguous. :)

I thought the same thing, till I read the whole article -

Sorry to double post, but CJA, you MUST include Collateral. So damn good.

YES! Holy crap! How did Collateral not make the list? He was astounding in it. By far his best role of all time.

While I disagree with many of these, I have to say that if the only movie he had ever been in was Legend and then we'd never heard of him again he would be my biggest crush in the whole-whole-wide-wide world.

This is an extremely complex matter. No one thing caused one other thing. For instance, we don't have free hands to use tools, we have free hands and use tools. We don't stand up right to -fill in blank-, we stand up right and some advantage came with it (it is possible, though unlikely that the actual selected…

EVERYTHING about Val Kilmer is awesome.

I've not heard that rule. I mean it's not all of them, right? We don't say an NASA experiment. Is it just when all the letters are listed instead of being used as a new word? That just seems like a strange absolute.

Is it really anal of me to be super bothered by 'an' SNL?

While I'm sure it will take us a long time to understand the exact mechanics behind these sorts of patterns in nature, when we start to see that all life is just matter unfolding from set plans, these things make sense. Trees are not the only thing that unfold in very precise mathematical ways, they are just an…

First off, I completely understand why we send robots to space. I'm 110% in support of robotic exploration of near Earth bodies. But.

Well, as Lysenko was just working off Lamark's outdated ideas I still think the credit goes to the guy that had the (still very) wrong idea first.

Thank you for succinctly writing the comment I've been trying to get down for like 30 min.

While expanding out a picture book into a feature length film worked exceedingly well once (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs), I fear it was the exception, not the rule.

I find it's not the same if you didn't watch it as a child. As a child you grow a fondness for it, you see its little (or huge) mistakes as almost cute. As and adult, without that support system to fall back on, it's just a big, ugly mess.

Science may well just be one of many perspectives we use to look at the world. I think people are actually right when they say this. It might be true that supernatural or mythological perspectives are just as philosophically valid, depending on what matters to the individual or the society.

JGL did a great job at the campy nonsense they were going for.

Can I just say that I'm a big fan of these dubunkery articles.

You don't try and prevent it. Unless you are a truly inspired individual (a very rare thing) then to do something good you will always have to first produce huge piles of crap. But while producing that crap you are practicing the skills to do something better. You are learning what exactly made it crap so you can…
