FUCK YO COUCH.

I felt like The Gentleman in the book was just David Bowie in Labyrinth with a bit of the Thin White Duke thrown in. That said, he was great, and the primary reason I haven't watched this yet was that the way the character was in the trailers really put me off the whole thing.

I think it's because the backgrounds are damn near photorealistic, then the characters are rather cartoonish.

You done good, kid.

Amen. And CLASS WARFARE.

It's been quite a while since I saw the film, but as someone who's a huge fan of pulp adventure stuff, I think the main issue was that they nailed the look of the medium but not the feel.

THAT MOVIE WAS NOTHING LIKE THE BOOK. Where was the telepathic plant thing or the omnipotent computer god?! RUBBISH.

I only watched the pilot, but I thought it was pretty weak. The reality show stuff was a bit broad but kind of funny, while the actual period piece angle was way too on-the-nose. I think parody works best when it starts from an actual fondness for the material, whereas this felt like a parody of two genres that the…

The problem with Black Dynamite is that, while it was funny, it was actually LESS funny than an actual blaxploitation film.

It's funny, because they actually do sound like Queen — when they're live. Jack Antonoff can SERIOUSLY play, but for some reason his guitar is always mixed really, really low on their albums.

I saw them live too, with St. Lucia opening for them, when they were just on the cusp of becoming inescapable.

I enjoyed the level, but I was pretty annoyed that the whole "figure out which Lady Boyle is real" thing was so easily solved. It was set up as this big mystery, but I'm pretty sure the second person I talked to at the party just blurted out "Oh, she's dressed like this. Yeah, that's totally her. Enjoy the party!"

I was just thinking about doing this! The only one I remember was my cousin and I playing the tree level of Rescue Rangers (https://www.youtube.com/wat… and singing the lyrics "If you wanna be in the Chuckles Band, you can sing into the telephone!"

Alexander Skarsgard.

Instead of CGI, it would be Willem Dafoe in the nude, painted with orange and white paint.

Did anyone see the episode of the 90s Mega Man cartoon where Mega Man X time travels back from the future and acts like a huge anime jackass the entire time? It was hilariously weird, because the show was normally pretty lighthearted and suddenly all these ultra-powerful jackasses show up.

This sounds like Quantum Leap with dead people.

This sounds like a worse version of Richistan by Robert Frank. (Which is good and you should read it.)

In British English, a bartender or bar manager is sometimes referred to as a landlord.

If I may answer in the form of my 16 year old self: UH, HE DEFINITELY CAN, DUDE, HE'S BASICALLY GOT TWO LIGHTSABERS STUCK TOGETHER, WHICH IS TWICE AS GOOD IF NOT MORE.
