I’ve never encountered a Kate Bush fan who so vehemently hates her videos. Which ones stick out as particularly poor to you? I like most of them!

I don’t give a fig about the video, but I do like her cover of the song — and I always have (Two Rooms is a great album. You’ve got The Who’s version of Saturday Night’s Alright (For Fighting), Tina Turner’s version of The Bitch is Back, a Bruce Hornsby version of Madman Across the Water, Phil Collins’ version of Burn

It’s terrible and I can’t stop watching.

Imagine if Kate Bush sang Rocketman.  That is exactly what this video sounds like.

Don’t know if y’all have seen this, but if you use Chrome, there’s a new Kinjamprove extension that adds proper nesting and threading of comments, allows for browser-specific blocking of users, and a bunch of other features that Kinja should have had implemented years ago. Works on non-AV Club Kinja sites too.

A Wish from Secret of Mana’s Crystal Forest area is still amazing.

Help! What’s a girl to do when she’s stuck between men? It’s like I’m a Barbie with three perfect Kens ...

I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard of this album, but does anyone else think that “Bad idea” sounds exactly like Gotye’s “Somebody that I used to know”? Like, lawsuit close? Even the opening riff sounds a little like the opening of that song. 

It’s because it’s based on a Venezuelan novela, Juana la virgen. And at least there's a lot of Venezuelans in Miami now to sorta justify it. 

It drives me crazy that I didn’t know JCVD appeared naked in all his movies (especially Universal Soldier) until I was in my thirties. You mean when I was 14 and closeted, I could’ve been admiring that man’s ass, arms, and chest, all while telling my dad I was watching it for the beat-em-up martial arts stuff? It

I like the show so much more now. One guest is ideal. I used to watch Letterman and Conan religiously in the 90s and 00s but I probably haven’t stuck around for a musical guest since the last time Pearl Jam played Letterman. Standup comedians also have many more avenues to get noticed now too.

I am 100% all here for JCVD’s renaissance. Jean Claude Van Johnson was silly fun. Glad to see him clean and making a comeback. Seems like a great guy. Also, Bloodsport is the greatest film ever made.

Is it the scene in which he uses karate to defeat a dastardly foe?

I wear shoes indoors for one of two reasons: either I’ve just come home and I’m leaving again in a few moments (and I’m a lazy fucker who doesn’t want to have to bother taking them off and putting them back on) or it’s winter and I want the extra insulation. My feet and toes get cold very easily, and I do everything

I prefer to go barefoot whenever possible. Throw on some slippers or flip flops if I need to step outside for a sec.

Has this person not considered that their wife might have IBS? What a weird thing to be upset about. 

Thanks for mentioning Naomi’s amazing lip synch, it was really something and really should be the focus of the episode.

It was between Manila and Trinity from the get-go. Now that Manila is gone, we know that The Tuck is going to win. If that doesn’t happen, this will be a colossal travesty just like AS3.

I did love the whole parent affair storyline but I couldn’t help thinking of an episode of New Girl where Jess is dating an awful guy because she loves his parents so much and that was Henry Winkler and Julie Hagerty as the parents.
