@SupaChupacabra: You think that's bad, imagine getting donkey punched by Satan.

@Craig Michael Ranapia: It strikes me that the V. writers room is full of sullen, angry people who can't believe they've ended up there.

Also, if the soul is a repository for human emotions, why don't the V's just try typing 'apt-get remove soul'?

Okay... so they're at the crime scene, and the mercenary character (who's so unremarkable that his name evaporates every time I learn it) phones Erica with some unnecessary exposition that gives her a lead to a place in Ossining, where something is something something blah blah blah. She makes a really lame excuse to…

"So are you a priest?"

I love vampire-fighting movies where someone shoots holes in the roof to torch a bunch of monsters. Some day the vampire hunters are going to start with that move. And then go drinking, because their work is pretty much done at that point.

@TheOmbudsman: Really? Chess-piece eyes? That just went from cheesy-cool to plain old dumb.

Marvel wants to keep the Avengers budget on the low end? Good luck with that.

"Mr. Faraday, I'm going to take over the city and frame you for my crimes... but first, look how fast I can text 'motherfucker' with your phone! Did you see it? Look I'll do it again!"

@8x10: Really? I never once got that vibe.

That was a really awkward makeout scene. I didn't think you could film Laura Vandevoort removing her clothes and make it completely unsexy, but V. triumphed.

@Hamslicer: I don't know: both words are English, and they accurately describe something. Uncle George rarely pulls off such a feat.

That's what I'm going to tell friends: V. isn't bad, it's... stylized.

Okay, I think I've finally figured V. out. It's straight-up cheesy pulpy sci-fi. I watched episodes from last season with the mistaken notion that the characters had some kind of grounding in realism (I know, laugh away), but this clip just screams MST3K fodder. "On their planet, silence must be a show of power".…

I can't wait to see a movie about a casket belonging to frost giants. Consider me a member of Team Casket.

@UberRob: His name is Mike Stoklasa and he runs redlettermedia.com. He's no industry insider, but he's got some considerable editing skills. Plus that Plinkett voice he's cooked up is perfect for the character.

@DouchieSnacks: That's right: they set out to make Heimdall black because they wanted diversity. No wait! They were terrified of crossing the liberal agenda elite! That's it.

All the Earth2 material from Fringe. I'd file that under Best of 2010.

@Steven Hart Newport: All true.

I was impatient for this article to end just so I could go on about how finely written and smart it was. Javier Grillo Marxuach is my master now.
