Surely you didn't forget the broasted chicken and potatoes?

Yeah, the novel actually explains how he came into possession of a ballpoint pen tube, and it has absolutely nothing to do with Chilton being careless. Problem is, to be faithful to the book in that regard the script would have to have shoehorned in some incredibly clunky expositional dialogue or scene to show it,…

Childfree 37-year-old here who loved every minute of this show and also chatting with my now-13-year-old step-niece about it all the years it's been on.

Right - I was actually legit scared that they were going to close the Mystery Shack once and for all, which would have felt to me like Dipper and Mabel would never come back to Gravity Falls again. Keeping it open, giving them a reason to visit and a place to stay, feels kind of like show pointing out that childhood…

Yeah, Rumble's fate gave me flashbacks to another video game character - the Sprite in "Secret of Mana"; both helping to save the world despite knowing that doing so would mean they would cease to exist.

Thanks! The group I'm going to hear is Distant Worlds - cannot wait!

This was the game that got me hooked on RPGs for life. I'd played Dragon Warrior and liked it, and really liked Final Fantasy 1, enough to keep at it after my game got erased not once, but twice about midway through. I got FFIV (as II) way back when it first came out in '91 as a Christmas present, and it was sheer…

Yeah, I found it was like the film equivalent of a kale and wheatgrass smoothie, in that it's "good", as film/art it has a lot of "nutritional value", so to speak, but I hated every minute of getting it down and you couldn't pay me enough to give it another try.

It's a shame that the celebs were always (to my recollection), one guy and one girl. I would've loved to have seen a Betty White vs. Shelley Smith week, although they probably would have burned the entire season's budget for winnings.

Anything to save us from that whole Anakin-as-fighter-pilot-savant sequence at the end of The Phantom Menace would be A-OK with me. We go from the terrific Jedi dueling, to "Spinning! That's a good move!" - Hate.

That was What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown? - it was a half-hour TV special that was like a mini-sequel to Bon Voyage. Visiting war memorials while Linus recites "In Flanders Field", yeah, pretty somber.

I liked it as a kid, but on a rewatch I found Peppermint Patty intolerable. I mean, when you're such an insufferably bossy bitch that Lucy barely registers as a character for the entire movie, there's a problem.

It's Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown - this is an actual thing that exists.

I thought the fourth had a much better ending than the fifth (actually parts 1, 2, and 4 had a much better EVERYTHING than the fifth). The fifth wanted me to accept that through three earlier movies Michael Myers could survive a needle to the eye, a knife to the gut, multiple gunshot wounds (some to the face),…

In fairness, if Bill hadn't had his stutter, the book might well have been only 400 pages.

Tools > Hammer > *Hit*

You also don't have to get the pitchfork, despite what the manual says. You just need to beat Jason on the third day. I found that out once when I was en route to the cave on day 3 and kept running into Jason on the trail, got his energy down to zero with the torch, and got that bullshit "is he really dead?" ending.

Actually, I also liked using Laura. Her lousy jumps were easier to control - kind of like the difference between Mario & Luigi in SMB2US.

The only weapon better than the torch is the pitchfork, which you don't get until day 3 by killing Jason's mother, and the best weapon you can get walking around killing zombies is the machete - you can only get the axe in one of the back rooms of the cave or in cabins in the woods or by killing Jason's mother on the…

Mark had the added benefit of being a seriously fast rower, and Laura was as speedy as Mark and Chrissy. Her jumping skills were as lousy as the other counselors, though.
