For a short time after reading Rand for a High School English class, thought there was something to her philosophy. That's because teenagers are so self-obsessed, so of course they (and myself at that age) imagine themselves as the Rand protagonist. Which is to say, a talented wunderkind that the system is just trying…

Better that they spread out their genres more in my opinion than the accepted wisdom of movie scheduling. Want to see a movie in November that ISN'T a self-important piece of Oscar bait? Well screw you! You want to see a movie in July that isn't a CGI-fueled explode-a-thon? Well screw you!

The more two people hate each other, the harder they get shipped.

I saw another article, I forget where, that had the opposite take on the game. It help up that Max is a manipulative creep. By getting infinite do-overs on conversations, she can figure out exactly what to say to leave any impression she wants on people and get them to do whatever she wants. You don't really mean a…

I found myself having for more sympathy for Baltar, particularly in the second half of the series. A robotics expert who had to become an Omnidisciplinary Scientist whenever the leadership had a science question because he's apparently the only person in the entire fleet who has read a textbook. Yet Roslin and the…

"Marvel's WATCH OUR LATEST MOVIE girls can do science Challenge"

So, did anyone just scream in abject horror for 60 seconds straight? Just me?

You know whenever you buy something off iTunes it asks, "Would you like to backup your purchase?" When I buy a CD, I regard it as getting the music I want with the backup already made.

Do a Google image search for Rouge the Bat.. with or without safe search on.

Rule 34 has been invoked for less than a busty bat girl with an affinity for leather bodysuits.

This is going to be The Force Awakens all over again, isn't it? "Here's a new entry into a beloved series that you have been waiting years for! Only it isn't really new. More of a remake than a sequel really. Like, a beat-for-beat remake. You're going to eat it up anyway because something is better than nothing."

Rand would probably have objected to Mr Incredible using his powers to help others instead of personal profit.

"…the comic book version of Danny is a prime example of the Mighty Whitey trope. Many were hoping that Marvel would cast an Asian-American actor as Danny, which would help remove the Orientalism and cultural appropriation from his story"
Just stop.
I have a problem with "cultural appropriation" as an idea. The notion…

Max Lord is just Lex Luthor with hair.

You have to be VERY careful when you're cutting a "Z" into someone's shirt with a lightsaber.

This may be me filling in the gaps with headcannon, but I think that a major part of why RF hates Flash is because he blames Flash for shattering a very precious illusion: The illusion of choice. He chose to be the new Flash, but when he achieved time travel for the first time he saw that the cosmos didn't care about…

ANyone remember a cartoon called Gary the Rat? It was about a ruthless, unscrupulous lawyer who racked up so much bad karma that the forces of the universe turned him into a 6 foot tall rat. The main running gag of the series was Gary steadfastly refusing to learn the typical lessons you see in this sort of thing.…

So no comment on the exchange between Lucy and James when she decides to take the job at KatCo? Lucy seemed to have written the script for the situation out in her head already. This was going to be about a triumph of her self-determination and James was just an unsupportive jerk standing in her way. Lucy wasn't about…

Travelling back to the 1960s, back in the middle of Silver Age silliness. Squirrel Girl will fit right in.

"Okay, those two humans are DEFINITELY trying to fuse. They aren't very good at it though. They just keep dancing and dancing but they're still barely fused at all."
