I was disappointed by the big mutant fight and the way it had been pumped up to be "epic mutant war time!" and turned out to be Xavier's ragamuffin team vs a ton of extras in hoodies getting their asses kicked. Lackluster. I'm guessing the CGI budget was saved on Phoenix causing chaos, but if you say there's a war,…

Aaaaaah fine. But it has to wait until I finish this project that I've been procrastinating all summer to do. Once that's finished, I'll jump in starting October. I can probably get a season in to help distract me from the "is TVD starting yet? How about now? How about now!?" mode I'll get into. That and The Walking…

Aww Heavy D...RIP :(

I love this. That is all.

Me me me!!! I love horror narratives (movies, films, video games), so Halloween is so my time of year. Can't. Wait.

One of my favorite games when watching The X-Files is playing the "Who's Famous Now?" game. You can spot folks like Seth Green, Jack Black, and Jewel Staithe before they were the sorts of stars we know them to be.

:-/ That is a clusterfuck of misfortune in one wedding afternoon.

And there was that detective he made out with in the Szygy episode (even though that could be blamed on the planet alignment and whatnot). And there's Phoebe Green, the British police officer he got to reminisce with in that Fire episode with that British actor who's in ALL of the things (most recently for me, he…

Did you, at least, get to enjoy the champagne? Sounds like you could've used a hell of a lot of it!

From what I consistently keep forgetting, many a-men communicate through actions, not words, especially if they've been properly conditioned by patriarchal notions that verbal expressions of emotions lead to vulnerability because you're acting "feminine" and heaven forbid! But then the irony is that men can be just as…

I totally own that soundtrack. I still hit it up when I'm in a "I need to get pumped up so I can finish this work!" mode. No shame needed!!

As a horror genre fan, I avoided reading your article once it hit the "Spoiler hauntings" and just wanted to know if this one was worth seeing at some point. Rental means I shall hold out, then.

I started watching TVD right before season 3 started because I was really getting annoyed with True Blood. So I figured, "Meh, why not?" Watched the first season streaming on Netflix and almost didn't latch on until maybe episode 3 or 4—> so once they did the usual "we totally like each other, but someone's harboring…

Of course we can be friends!! I don't *think* Caroline's officially out of dodge. I can't really imagine her leaving town at Tyler's request without contacting one of the crew and saying, "Guys, things are bad. Things are really, really bad!" I also find it interesting that Klyer/Tlaus told her to leave town instead…

That show's still on?? Damn, didn't realize.

I've only seen him in Snow White and the Huntsman and I didn't care for the movie. And, honestly, when you have him opposite Chris Hemsworth/Thor as romantic interests? PSSSH NO CONTEST. I actually kept looking at Chris, with all his sass and angst and grissliness, then at Claflin with all his pining and attempts at…

I'm team neither. I liked initially reading the first book and going, "Hmm, she's totally in this game to save her sister's life and not die. And she's willing to do what's needed to win the audience over to survive. That's so pragmatic in a way that most teens might not be in a position (socially, politically) to…

I may just have to promote this "Romney/Ryan 2012: Blinded by the White" that you are selling.

So which teen-targeted show is going to have this song featured in an episode first? Fall season premieres are a month or two away. Place your bets now!!

Does Jake perform music? I ask only b/c one of the lyrics in this song is about some indie label blahblah...
