Back in the days of VHS, my dad owned two VCRs and one of those de-crypter boxes, and was very proud of his ability to make decent copies of videos for people. Heading off to college, I gave him a list, including “Blade Runner”. As it was copying, he asked what sort of movie it was, and asked if it had any ‘adult’…

A ramen place near me serves a tonkotsu broth so thick that it’s nearly gravy, and tops its noodles and fatty pork loin with chopped raw garlic and a ladleful of pork fat. If you finish the whole bowl, they cheer for you, and I’m pretty sure under the right circumstances it would be literally *literally* heart…

Belly’s first new album since 1995, Dove, is slated to come out this year as well.

The short will be showing on TV as a Christmas special, just like they always planned for it to, and had always been intended to be removed from the film after about two weeks. (source: friends at Disney and theater owners)

No, the lesson is: spoilers suck. Posting spoilers sucks. Assuming that everyone is OK with major events of a huge book series being spoiled in a comment thread about a film that doesn’t reveal them is poor judgement. And throwing that back (a month later!) on the people upset about spoilers being posted, like you…

I found myself really not digging the storyline of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and ended up spending most of my time happily riding a BMX bike around the mountain hills rather than deal with the awful junk going on in the city.

As Heather Ross says in the interview “Google pictures of cow tongues if you don’t know what they look like”. A raw cow tongue looks like a gross mangled penis.

I’d never heard it before, and that’s a truly awful version of “Let the Mystery Be”. I much prefer David Byrne and Natalie Merchant:

Also, Trump admitted via Twitter that he specifically asked Pence to attend the game and stage a walkout.

Alternate headline: In case there was any doubt, Milo is literally a Nazi, and here’s the proof.

It was pre-ordered and sold out at every game store in the Boston area. By no possible means did Nintendo prepare for demand, unfortunately.

Well dang! I’ll run out and grab one.

Fantastic recommendations all around. If your gaming group is dedicated enough, Pandemic Legacy is likely the best board game I’ve played: imagine Pandemic except that goals and challenges change every round, and the board and cards evolve constantly. Being told to permanently put stickers on the map or tear up cards…

It’s worth reading, just to see how utterly bat-guano Harry’s reviews could get and why it’s not hard to see him as a creepazoid. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/11793

I had actually never read that one; the last review of his that I remember reading was his (mentioned by others) Blade 2 review, which gave up all pretense of being a movie review and was just flat-out, super gross pornography.

Yep, that’s about as snarky a reply as I expected. Quite honestly, anyone who frames a response as “Welcome to the internet!” deserves to be ignored and eye-rolled at.

I used to read AICN daily, because they always had the first scoops, backstage spy photos, unique interviews, and there was a time that Harry’s reviews were at least coherent and unique enough to get him on TV as one of the possible replacements for Gene Siskel. At some point the scoops stopped, the spy reports dried…

Probably a mistake to assume everyone’s read every book of an epic series! Whoops!

Hi, here on the internet, most people try to keep in mind that giving away major plot items — even of something that already exists! gasp! — is something to do carefully, and often with a *spoiler* warning or some such thing. If not, it’s disappointing for people currently reading such a thing. But feel free to spoil…

While her tragic fate is implied, her being burnt alive is not “stated” in any way, no.
