I'm seein' double! Four DeSomethings!

Obsolete is the wrong word for it. Reviews that don't discuss the ending and plot in detail were the norm, because they were all printed exactly once, in newspapers on the week of release before the reader had seen the movie, with print-mandated word limits and style requirements. That is the traditional model of film

I combined my two favorite AV Club topics from last week and started a U Talkin' U2 2 Me?-themed playthrough of Pokemon White 2. It's the story of two lovable lads from Aspertia named Thedge and Bonobos who just want to be big boys and also catch monsters. What's great is that the Unova region is a sort of a character

Bono can only smell two things: freedom, and the top of a newborn baby's head.

And yet he lost the game anyway for delivering a long speech about the AIDS epidemic during the Would You Rather theme. A classic Would You Rather blunder!

Okay, so does anyone have an answer to the eternal question? How does Bono know what Scott Aukerman had for lunch?

FUCK THE AV CLUB

Well, the League certainly doesn't do shit about the increasing issue of performance-enhancing berries.

See, the Bulgarian Air Force did try to sell their surplus military aircraft on Amazon, but it didn't end well.

Or else they found another TV Tropes article that saved them some work. I'm not sure there is one for this particular Inventory topic, so maybe not.
