Awesome! Also, bonus point for the "Malk" reference.

*puts on sunglasses* YEEAAAAAAAAAHH!!!

What the fuck, Egypt? What, the Three Stooges weren't available for the job so you got someone clumsier?

I think the Cinemasins dude nailed it when he said: "As far as I'm concerned, Optimus Prime's lips can go suck the batsuit nipples".

Now playing

I think I just noticed a scene in "Return of The Jedi" where those cardboard cutout "extras" are used - check out this clip, especially between 56-60 seconds in, behind the emperor. The soldiers/stormtroopers in the background look pretty flat to me...

I'd drop HTTYD for TLM - it is a sequel, after all, which in my book means that if they're otherwise equally matched, that would be what sealed the nomination.

Finally, a set of Sunday Puzzles I could do!

This is an example of an interesting form of quote cherrypicking, namely the kind that assumes noone has heard of the existence of the word "however".

Boy, are you in for a disappointment - either you'll love the originals and discover what a hairy train wreck this new one is going to be, or you prefer the hairy train wreck, in which case the originals will *not* be in your ballpark...

K, gonna have to disagree there - or rather, this:

Wait, is that Master Chief? Would anyone else feel just, like, peachy about putting Blomkamp to work on that Halo movie we're still inexplicably missing, or is that just me...?

I'm not going to pretend I even kind-of understand all of this but what always intrigues me about the idea of a "block universe" (as I've just now realized it's referred to), and indeed about the idea that other times than the present moment actually exist, and therefore could conceivably be travelled to, is this: -

Y totally agree wyth the spellyng thyng.

Good advice - here's a piece in return: Get a Fairphone. Very workable Android phone at a good price point - with the added value of being produced in a *very* fair-trade way, and with pretty much every part being replaceable at a low cost.

I love this observation because it provides me with a(nother) explanation for my obvious entertainment nostalgia - you know, beyond having passed 40 half a decade ago and settling firmly in "things were better in the old days" country (you call this snow? Hah!).

Thank you kindly! :)

Hmm... well, the theory does hinge on the notion that AI is even possible, something we don't actually know - hell, we don't even know that "more advanced" intelligence than our own can exist; our own intelligence is the only one we actually know of.

Well, here's the thing - ironically, 3D-printers (or derived machines, whatever we'll call them) won't be household appliances until they work more in the manner of the Star Trek replicators.

Cool - I've actually experienced this kind of ice once, when I was a kid here in Denmark. Near our house was a small pond, just your regular rainwater fishing hole kind of deal, which froze every winter (blablabla ice skating everything was better in the old days), and one winter the first freeze was this incredibly
