What, no flashback of Oliver peeping over a fence at lil' Roy watching youtube videos with his friends? "It's called parkour, guys! Pretty tight, right?"

Art vs. Personal Life isn't always all that tricky and subjective.
Orson Scott Card has some aweful, old fashioned opinions, so I generally don't read him, and take what I do read with a grain of salt.
Roman Polanski drugged and horrendously raped a child, then ran away. He doesn't get a grain of salt, no matter how…
Ooh, don't get me started on the injustice and wasted opportunity that was Stephanie Brown…!
"A GIRL Robin?! Nah, screw it, let's torture her to death. Nope nope, can't have that."
I love John Noble's face, so craggily and expressive. He seems kind, and almost vulnerable by default, but can subtlety switch on the spine-chilling sinister at a moment's notice. It's all in the teeth.
She's also a character who absolutely abhors violence…so naturally she gets hot and giggly and proposes sex minutes after witnessing a psycho kid admit to chopping up his mother?
Dr. Thompkins just gets better, now veering into Manic Pixie Gotham Girl territory.
"Let's go poke around under a bridge in the middle of the night…in Gotham City! 'Cuz a psychic! OMG!"
Mal would never have put up with this crap.
Things are gonna get awkward when, 3 episodes in, they meet the cast of Almost Human and and have to deliver the sad news that there was no minority report—all three precogs predicted their show would fail.
Stole colors lost to the Age of Legends include teal, eggwhite, gunmetal, burnt orange, Slytherin, alizarin, a deeper shade of blue, and goofy grape.
You seriously have make notes and charts of the army of minor characters who pop up in meetings. Almost all of them are utterly meaningless , yet sometimes one will spring up as important 3 books later to declare, "Mwahaha, it was ME all along!", and you're left thumbing back thousands of pages, going, "Uhh, wait, who…
Did the books ever get good again after they became glacial halfway through the series? I toughed it out for awhile, but gave up when 90 percent of every tome became meetings in tents over wine and tea. Rand isn't sure what to do, the Foresaken are up to Something Big, Aes Sedai are are a bunch of bitches who like to…
I always liked VIII's world and vibe, with its witches and scifi cities, where every high school is at war and every teenager is a super fashionable mercenary. It's like something out of a YA novel you'd actually want to read.
That said, Squall really is pretty terrible.
Oh Thea. You only really hang out with your brother and your dad. Even Roy probably thinks it's enough with the belly shirts already.
Felicity: "Got a tip here from Minnesota PD records. Apparently if we want to find Vertigo, we should check every Pancakes House in town."
The Last Apprentice series by Joesph Delaney (called the Wardstone Chronicles outside the US). The 1st book is Revenge of the Witch.
I would pay triple ticket price to see a movie version of Good Will Andy.
Quadruple for Ron Swanson's National Treasure.
And abracadabra, Abbie has a love interest all her own from out of nowhere.
Prediction! He's actually Crispus Attucks, who never died and now tries to combat the kind of propaganda that the Boston Massacre became.
That, or he's just some random, stiffly-acted dude shoehorned in to force Abbie to get a little mushy.
A long time ago, I read a factoid that more kids worldwide recognize Mario than Mickey Mouse. For some reason, this made my mother sad.
These days, I would bet anything that more kids recognize Stewart as Professor X than Captain Picard, which, for some reason, makes me sad.
And meanwhile, almost no one recognizes him…
I'm still weirded out by Leslie Thompkins as a sexy love interest. It's so out of character, especially since it's all her character is so far. She's supposed be a kind of Alfred Lite, a surrogate mother figure that supports Bruce despite her better judgement, who's been a big part of his Bat life from the beginning.
An…
Man, Simpsons has been coming back to future scenarios/scifi more and more lately. It's almost like they want to do a whole science fiction animated comedy in the style of Matt Groening. But that would just be crazy!
My first thought at this healine was excitement that the Serial saga continues!
The second thought was that I should call my mother and apologize for judging her love of Ann Rule books.
