We were at the beach... Everybody had matching towels

I can see other artists taking offense to it, because rampant popularity of absolute crap takes the market away from better things. But that's where you tell people "If you like this, you should check out _____", not "HOW DARE YOU LIKE THIS THING".
Another great steak recipe I got from Alton Brown ages ago:
"But Jimmy has fancy plans."
I would LOVE an entire retro-future sci-fi noir series based on Brown Betty. That episode was amazing.
Okay, bear with me for a second. Pretty much everyone hates the 'Black Market' episode of Battlestar Galactica. Even Ronald D. Moore admitted it didn't work and was one of the weakest episodes of the series. BUT, it set up a really cool environment despite not being a good episode, and a "black market gangsters in…
"Please stop telling women how we're doing feminism wrong while not actually understanding feminism." I would have come to an agreement with you had you not gotten insulting and defensive at the end. I said nothing critical of feminism. I criticized a binary pass/fail test that is poorly applied to it.
Another reason why Alien should pass any gender scrutiny with flying colors: None of the characters in the script were given genders. They could've cast anyone for any role.
Oh believe me, I'm as FAR from the "not all men" bullshit as a person can be. I regularly criticize those people whenever I see that kind of thinking, so please don't paint me into that picture. What I'm saying is that Louie, the TV show, presents a surreal exaggeration of Louis CK, the comedian, in the show. I never…
I agree with that, what I'm saying is that it's a surreal exaggeration of HIM. His character's a lonely creep a lot of the time (when he's not being a really good dad), and he gets into awkward situations on a level not seen since Larry David. But it's true, a lot of the scenarios aren't necessarily unrealistic, but…
Ever since Pacific Rim, there's been a growing movement for the "Mako Mori Test", which I vastly prefer to Bechdel. Bechdel is very flawed for the reasons outlined above, and I don't think all of those "buts" should be ignored just because they lead to other conversations. All of the Twilight movies pass Bechdel. But…
Louie has always been a surreal exaggeration. He's done the same thing for religion and homophobia, and this season's theme seems to be about gender politics when you consider the weird sexual themes and the "fat lady" episode. Don't take anything too literally. He's intentionally portraying the most pathetic man…
Honestly, I can watch any scary movie or TV show by myself. Horror video games on the other hand, freak me out because there's an actual danger to the character you're controlling. With movies at least I can separate myself from the danger of the characters, but when something screeches out of the darkness at you and…
More like "pretty cool looking". I'm on a crusade against articles using "mind-blowing" in their headlines too much. Buzzfeed and Cracked already use them like crazy when nothing about the content is all that life-changing or even notable. I don't know a single mind-blowing use for peanut butter, let alone 25.
Roseanne had meta stuff all the time, and I think was one of the forerunners for sitcom deconstruction. See the episode where ominous music was being played out of nowhere, and they kept looking around for it.
If horse_ebooks was any indication, all of these were done by a Buzzfeed employee as viral marketing.
Couldn't it have originated from several large rocky masses colliding during early formation? That should explain the speed of it as well - massive things hitting each other do weird things to physics.
Seriously, no, go back and look at CGI Jabba. "Obviously a puppet" was fine at the time the movies came out, and long after. It's aged well because the aesthetic is something people accept when watching the originals. "Bad even for modern CGI" was not fine even at the time the special editions came out, and has aged…
TIL: Japan is deceptively huge.
