I am very excited about the Marvel Netflix shows. I went out and ordered the Alias: Jessica Jones out of print comics in preparation, and they're really dark, but amazing.
There's only one correct answer. And it would be glorious. Set ten years after the conclusion of the first book (two seasons), with actors that have really aged ten years! Make it so!
At the time it aired it didn't get the attention (span) it deserved! But it was just ahead of the curve! Viewing audiences now would…
Okay, this may be a bit strange, but hear me out: When I was doing my undergrad, I donated my eggs. I had to get ultrasounds on a near daily basis toward the end of the hyperdeveloping process to examine how the ova were developing. IT WAS SO COOL, and all I could think when looking at my ovaries where how the…
So you were into beards before they were cool?
I kid, I kid.
So, I think we can conclude pretty firmly that the split in Cohl and Hart's relationship is a ruse, and the two have been working together on the QT for the last decade.

You know, at the risk of defending a bad object (because it is a genuinely miserable film in some fairly objective respects), I feel like from the vantage point of three absolutely humorless Nolan films—which were very much greenlit as paranoid reactions to Batman & Robin—I have a retroactive appreciation for…
Zardoz or Last Year at Marienbad.
At my parties, anyway. You can come in or out any time—the worst thing that can happen is a crowd chant-along.
"Terry Wallis, who, in 2003, awoke from a 19-year coma..."
Gwendoline Christie and her Brienne continue to make my heart sing. Christ, but they won the casting lottery with that woman.
Never was a more appropriate audiobook narrator found than Samuel L. Jackson for Go the Fuck to Sleep.
Absolutely. If Winston and Julia don't truly love each other, then there's nothing particularly horrible about Room 101. There are no stakes in the story at all if they don't love each other. Love is what the state is trying to monopolize. Hence "Ministry of Love."
Ah, so you're more of the Brave New World type.
It's not a romance.
