I would allege that the problem with his presidency was never Carter himself, but the way in which the rest of the world and politics in general of that time just did not support an idealistic humanitarian and genuinely decent human being like Carter. It’s the world that’s broken and wrong, not people like Jimmy…

Yeah, what the hell? I never would have gotten this kind of flack back before Kinja when everyone would have understood it was a Simpson’s reference. I love Jimmy Carter, he seems by all accounts to be a wonderful human being

He’s history’s greatest monster!

If it’s Scooby Dio related and doesn’t have the subtitle “Mystery Incorporated” then even at its best it’s still just going to be unoffensively mediocre. Which each of those movies are

They met real monsters way before that, Reluctant Werewolf, Boo Brothers and Ghoul School. Why am I the only person who remember those awful, awful movies?

Oh man, the best thing about that review is probably the link to his review of Sex Drive, which I didn’t know he had ever reviewed and which is an amazing fucking review

They must work there or something

1) It’s called Leopardon 2) It’s from the 70's 3) Cline doesn’t even remember it as the show only made it stateside in the 2000's, unless he was somehow importing bootleg VHS tapes and spoke fluent Japanese in the 1980's before the internet existed. 4) CHANGE LEOPARDON!

At least it gave us Kristen Bell in the Leia Bikini...and nothing else

That movie fucking sucked

Meh, my 61 year old mom was more of a Burgertime and Tetris player, my 61 year old dad knows who Gygax is though, and he’s the one who first told me about Zork when I was a kid.

but you’re right, the mecha thing does make more sense, I just remember not giving a shit what they were supposed to be when I first saw it on DVD as a kid, all that mattered was that humans were gone, and now these things were here, and they could work miracles

I completely agree, and I believe that fellow 2000's era Spielberg film Catch Me If You Can is one of his best films, if not his best. Everything about Catch Me feels so effortless, despite telling a fairly complex story about a con man throughout several years of his life and the man tirelessly pursuing him. It’s one…

Can something that never truly lived ever really die? Furthermore, was the fact that David was only programmed to love diminish the feelings of love he had for his mother and his friends? Is he just a puppet, and if he’s a puppet, can a puppet ever become real? I’d like to think so, and it’s why I love the ending of…

I mean, I never watch any of these sort of adaptations, but I would have watched this pilot just out of morbid curiosity, since Joe and Gabriel were apparently completely on board with it and had a big part in the development process (at least, big for how these things usually go) it’s kind of baffling because each…

Robinett is the only one I don’t recognize, Tempest was one of the most popular videogames of its time and has been ported all the way up through at least the first PlayStation, to say nothing of homages to it. Zork is also extremely well known among people who had even a passing knowledge of videogames from that era…

I loved the ending pretty much from the first time I saw it. Just beautifully well done.

To my mind AI is one of, if not the only full-on Sci-Fi fairytales we’ve gotten on the silver screen, and I absolutely love when filmmakers inject fairytale concepts into more modern stories, such as Tim Burton with Edward Scissorhands or basically everything Guillermo Del Toro has ever made. So I fucking love…

The early 2000's kids cartoon Time Squad had Eli Whitney inventing flesh eating robots instead of the cotton gin

Well, the movie is a fairy tale told within the sci-fi genre, what better way to fit that theme than with a space alien Deus Ex Machina?
