Thirded. Ryan's insightful reviews were the only reason I gave the show a chance in the first place, and why I slogged thru the first 3-4episodes, hoping that the show would come around to the heaping helping of awesome that he said was coming.

To paraphrase the fantastic Mr. McGee from one of his reviews, the slow-mo is entirely worth it for the one scene where Gannicus tries to knock a sword out of Spartacus' hands, but it instead spins and he catches it by the handle. Yeah, they use it a tad too much, but that scene and the mentioned in the interview…

Ooh, to amend my post above, and to further my love of Pyncohon (see, username), maybe a Kilroy.

Being a wishy-washy stoner, there's just been no image I've ever seen that I would want emblazoned on my body for all time. But if forced to choose, I guess a Pagliacci sad clown would do.

Definitely agree on the "spiritual" issue. Among the many contrasts so far between Aang and Korra is that Aang, trained as a monk, vegetarian in a very spiritual (harmony with nature) environment and his way getting along with *all* creatures (great and small) vs Korra's worldview, which with what small snippets…

Team Koko!

Just don't toss opposing team members over the sides, stay in your designated zone, and only *one* bending skill allowed per player. Straightforward, simple, elegant, and awesome.

Speaking of Stewart with hair, great to see him as Karla in the BBC's "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy". Doesn't utter a word, and is still mesmerizing (though that may be due to the hair and everything I've seen him in since). Onto to IMDB or Wiki to see if he's in "Smiley's People" as well.

What I think a lot of critics missed in the film was the humor. I thought it was hysterical (intentionally so), and much needed in light of the ultimate fate of Sabina. Another thing I that doesn't jibe for me is the charges that Cronenberg's direction wasn't "flashy" enough, or was too beholden to the stage play;…

Too rushed, they didn't have enough episdoes to properly tell those stories. Still pretty darn great, and it suffers coming off season 4, the most gut wrenching and possibly single best season of TV ever.

I don't know which one of you limp dicked fuckwits rated "The Raid" below an A, but when I find out, I'm coming for you with a shard of halogen glass and plunging it straight into your jugular! B- AV Club raters…B fucking minus?!?!? Y'all are dead to me, and soon to be dead to your relatives and friends as well. …

I think he had a screener for the premier, but yeah, co-sign. No offense against Keith, but I never really grokked his Mad Men reviews.

Nah, fuck 'em, some people just cannot stand war/violence/military type of fiction. My special lady friend related this to me when we were rewatching Generation Kill, that while she tried to extoll the virtues of the show onto others to get them to check it out, they just will not watch that type of stuff, no matter…

Please, those two get an hour (give or take both Olivia's and Peter's enjoyment of foreplay) and knowing their luck, the universe (and all the others) will suffer a big implosion and collapse back upon itself.

None of you cocksuckers had better spoil this bible I'm reading, as I just go to this guy Jesus who seems like a pretty righteous dude…

Remove cock from ass, and leave San Fran post-haste! Was SF named amongst the top-5 vacation destinations in a recent NYT's piece? Oakland is up 'n coming man!*

Dunno if they're R-rated or not, but other balls out action extravaganza's post BB2 (which, personally, I don't even think counts, but to each is own) include…

Suck it Portland! Opening in two theaters in San Fran on Friday, and one of 'em (Sundance Kabuki) serves alcohol and allows you to choose your seats on-line! And we're* getting an Drafthouse to boot!

In Malkmus defense, he was such a stoner at the time that he thought "Rattled by the Rush" was the best possible single off that album. Good tune, yeah, but…damn, he must've been super high. It would've been out of left field, for them, but "Father to a Sister of Thought" would've maybe been a better choice. …

And she takes more drugs than a touring funk band.
