We just wanted you to join Barb.

They've already done that, stating that their inspiration is 80s sequels like Aliens, Temple of Doom, etc.

Konami still has Pro Evolution Soccer, though. And it's diversified its investments so much in Japan (gyms, life insurance, pachinko, etc.). Why WOULD they continue to put the bulk of their money into game development when the returns are so comparatively meager? What's sad is that they're releasing new games with our…

This is getting into some Macross: Do You Remember Love? territory.

If anything, I thought his flashback was supposed to show how much privilege someone like Bayley had compared to the women on this show. He got to graduate high school without worry, get shooed away from a night of jail, shrug off losing a job and egg public property without getting thrown in jail.

I hate 'em

It's that holy fool characteristic that makes Luffy most eyeroll-worthy to me, actually. I realize why he's written the way that he is, not my cup of tea.

I've tried on several occasions to see what the appeal of One Piece is, but I'm always stopped by how childish and shrill it comes off as. I don't really like or respect Luffy much as a protagonist, which makes it hard to want to continue.

Didn't he learn his lesson when the apes rose up?

I think Myles made a good argument on why the show isn't always skilled at creating villains.

It would make for pretty boring seasons 5-7 if everyone suddenly became friends.

I can't see Piper interacting with Pennsatuckey without being really high-handed.

Have you seen recent pics of her? She's almost unrecognizable…

At a showing I went to not long after Bowie's death, when he's offering Sarah a chance to obey him a lady in the audience very loudly and enthusiastically shouted, "OKAY!!!"

The art is pretty dire.

Jareth is basically the archetypal "bad boy."

When I saw the movie as a kid I thought Sarah at the beginning of the movie was being treated really unfairly.

Seconded. I mean, if Ghost World can turn Scarlett Johansson into a star, why not Thora?

*slow claps*

Also they foreshadowed eating your own children in that story that Bran told several seasons ago.
