Kind of weird that he'd say that today, since depending on your definition of remake, this was either already true almost a week ago or isn't true now. Gravity passed World War Z for 8th place in 2013 last Tuesday, October 29. But it's still $72M behind Man of Steel, which is far from the first Superman movie ever

Actually no. The distinction between original properties and franchises is a pretty big deal right now. The balance between the two has undergone a massive shift in favor of franchises over the past 10-15 years, and it's a thing that folks in the industry pay a lot of attention to and talk about a lot. Financially,

I'll be surprised if she has more than a bit part in it. Her character was central to the theme of the first movie, the clash of classical heavily stylized storytelling (represented by Thor) with modern realistic self-aware storytelling (Dennings), as seen through the eyes of someone torn between them (Portman). The

That shouldn't be too hard. I mean, the list of things better than Two Broke Girls is just so LONG.

Also there will be no new gun permits for anyone until the shutdown ends, and there is someone at work to approve them. It's not just cutting off your nose to spite your face, it's cutting off your nose to spite someone else's face. Someone who hates you and would love to see you without a nose.

If I was in bed with someone who did #2 and #9, I'd probably propose marriage immediately. Because sandwiches are better than daylight savings time.

Naked tea? Meh. Tea in a pith helmet? Yes please!

My mother was in a sorority at Ohio State in the mid 60's, and they refused to let a close friend of hers in because she was black. My mom considered quitting in protest, but decided to stay in to try to change things from within. She failed. It's one of her biggest regrets to this day.

The content of that one is wrong too. Good beer should be drunk at a temperature anywhere from 35F to 60F, depending on style. And it's really only Pilsners and Dortmunders that should be below 40F. Really cold food interacts less with our taste buds, which is only desirable if coldness is the point and the flavor is

Here's how to feel about it in one sentence: A world with Ariel Castro dead is better than a world with Ariel Castro alive.

"...lame not necessarily because their powers are useless, but because the character themselves are useless."

Bunnicula reference made my day. I re-read those books a couple of months ago, for the first time since I was a kid, and they're every bit as good as I remember them being. Better, maybe, since I got all the pop culture references this time.

So, you don't care about people's faces so long as their Titles & Anthologies are in full view?

This. This this this this this.

Yeah, that's the backstory. There's some good news, though: academic and clinical psychologists are a lot more aware of this stuff now than they were 10-15 years ago. Sex psychology in general is no longer unfairly stigmatized as an attempt to revive Freudian pseudoscience, so it's culturally acceptable to study
