Hum, I think the bag represents beauty being free, as opposed to the American idea that beauty has to be bought and owned (or conquered, as Spacey tries to sexually conquer that high school chick).

The thing I heard about Guardians was that it was personal, from the writer/director James Gunn. Sorta like with Wes Anderson movies, where the soundtrack was part of the original vision.

Had an ex-girlfriend who'd graduated high school ahead of me in 1995. We lived in a small town and when she came back from college one weekend, she told me she didn't like our town anymore, because everyone was "afraid of her ideas."

Saw them open for KISS whilst chaperoning my 10 year old nephew. Now there's some family entertainment, let me tell you. Not my idea.

Yeah, I don't particularly like Rare or the DKC series, pre-Retro, and even I think divisive is the wrong word. I think DKC is basically well-liked, though among Nintendo's pantheon of A-list series, it's probably the one with the largest hate cult. Still, if we're talking percentages, the anti-DKC club isn't large…

I know I've told this story before on the AV Club, but I happened to catch the very first airing of the first episode of Friends, just randomly. I was about 15 or so and was watching TV with my mother. After the show was over, she actually turned to me and asked, "Well, what do you think of that?" And I remember I…

And he buried Joe Ezsterhas at the same time. What's not to like?

That's… unforgettable.

Well, I didn't say I was shocked by it. I was mildly surprised, though.

Thumbs up just for the phrase "time for everyone to crawl out of Kim Deal's granny panties".

Yeah, that happened to my baby daughter back in January. I remember thinking, "How are you still smiling when you have a temperature that high?"

Bought a couple of collections of Carl Barks and Don Rosa 'Uncle Scrooge' comics that I intend to start reading today. Pretty excited because I've been trying to track them down for a long time.

Well, Freeze might be even harder, in parts. Though the option to use Dixie is a big help.

I'd love to see them tackle F-Zero.

…until Retro came along and beat the pants off of the original games. Tropical Freeze is a masterpiece.

I'm… stunned. Man, it's worse than I'd imagined.

Yeah. A rusty trombone. Har har.

They got their game on.

To be honest, they're pretty damn cheesy even by 1995 standards.

I'm from Texas and never understood why that became a hit at all. It's equivalent to a disco cover of Camptown Races becoming a hit. Just why?
