Now that usage is correct.

"The rumored date jives well with previous years."

If I'm reading this show right, this takes place decades, if not centuries, after the end of the last series. The home of the 'cats has become a respectable little kingdom (though it's lost all knowledge of technology).

Yeah, I like the new take on Tygra. In the old series he frequently seemed kind of superfluous. But as something of a rival to Liono, you also lose his occasional influence as a mentor.

As soon as I read that the voice talent was being recorded together, I thought, "I bet it's Andrea Romano..." and sure enough it was.

You win.

Yes! Talisman would be a better movie. Plus if it does well, Black House would too.

There's at least a little raunch in all of them. My Shakespeare professor in college delighted pointing out all the dirty jokes, and claimed that there's a fart joke in every Shakespeare play—even the tragedies.

"This is a book that contains so much profane language, it would make a sailor blush with shame."

Tyson is very entertaining, and should make a good host.

"As the number of divisions reaches infinity, the whole thing becomes a kind of lattice with no volume inside, just surfaces of infinitely pitted and thinned walls."

"But CBS shows have a way of turning into CBS shows."

My son asked the other day what would happen if you were bitten by a radioactive spider in real life. Glad to see I got it right.

Just FYI, Pixar studied (and got to play with) the Action Track Chair when designing WALL*E.

Splinter of the Mind's Eye was actually a treatment for a lower-budget sequel to A New Hope, in case that first film didn't do too well. (Which is why most of it takes place on a mist-shrouded planet.) Last I heard, Lucasfilm officially disavowed it as part of continuity because of the attraction between Luke and Leia

I don't have a problem with the actor who plays Jinks, but the character sure seems like he's being jammed in there. W13's ensemble is pretty big already. What are they up to?

I'm all about giving every movie a chance—nothing delights me more than when a movie that's "supposed" to be bad turns out not to be—but with that said, wow this looks truly awful.

I'm heartened by the fact that Stanton seems to be approaching this film in much the same way Peter Jackson approached Lord of the Rings:

"I have been a soreheaded occupant of a file drawer labeled "Science Fiction" ... and I would like out, particularly since so many serious critics regularly mistake the drawer for a urinal." - Kurt Vonnegut

"…they weren't talking about my commercial success, they were digging into the intricacies of the lyrics."
