Late Night With Sex Dungeon Aquaman! Tonight's guests are Arianna Huffington, Fisher Stevens and Louis CK.

I'm starting to think that Darkseid is a bad, bad man.

@bishop1j: Ferengi?

@Yamato: The counting-grains thing is a pretty old folk belief related to vampires and evil spirits in Eastern Europe.

@Srynerson: Not only is it optional - it's mandatory!

I was a little surprised by the episode because I was expecting something more along the lines of Changing Channels. And yes, the gay jokes were a little much after a while.

@martisco: I didn't mind episode 5 so much, but it felt a little forced - especially with the twins subplot.

@matthewabel: I think you and @Mastiff are right - the presence of Olivia in the alt-world lends a lot more tension to the episodes. I also like the little details that mark the alternate world.

I'll give any movie with Michelle Monaghan a chance. She has to be the most underrated actress out there.

Yaaaay. At least now I know how long the show is going to last on the air.

Is it just me, or have the Earth2 episodes generally been head-and-shoulders above the Earth1 stories?

I always thought that a time machine couldn't take you any further back in time than the invention of the machine (that's right, I demand that a movie adhere to theoretical science). Also, imagine how crowded the time machine room would get as everyone from the future just flooded in. People from all different points…

@MinervaAlpaca: Imagine if they'd given that title to Gus van Sant. You'd get ninety minutes of some kid walking around with a zombie. The end.

That looks like exactly like the weird-ass science fiction movies I used to watch on TV in the early '80s. So I get the vibe. But I have no idea what's supposed to be going on, unless what's going on is an intrusion of an alternate universe during the filming of a Front 242 video.

@Occula: And now I'm picturing a minor character in Hamlet saying "Sirrah, I bring ass-rapery to Denmark!"

@Occula: There's no doubt that this movie is going to be painful, unless the trailer carefully selected all the dull and crappy moments.

@ApollyonBoB: I still like my reading, but that's pretty good evidence that I'm, whaddyacallit, wrong. And yes, the squid is a giant macguffin.

@ApollyonBoB: Damn, I just moved and my books are all packed away, so I can't pull out Watchmen to really go into it. But I'm sticking to my reading: the world is not uniting out of fear. They're uniting out of shared consciousness, spurred by the psychic shock wave of the the squid's death. By shared consciousness I…

I think that Hal Jordan is going to learn a little something about himself by the time the movie ends.

That trailer was kind of monosyllabic. "Blah blah blah blah". "Blah, blah". "Blah blah blah?" "Blah".
