So, so much this. It's not possible to hate Bob Kane too much.

The fact that it's played for laughs is what made me think we'd never see it.

I really didn't think they'd be able to do Starr's buggering in this day and age…so color me surprised when the three guys show up. I'll bet he won't rave that this "Turned him into a homosexual" this time, though…

A note on "Freedom isn't free". I actually do believe that, though in my opinion, the fighting is less against impoverished foreigners on the other side of the planet and more against institutions of authority that would try to usurp that freedom in the name of profit, wrongheaded pragmatism, etc.

Snyder's almost-genius really does shine through in the action scenes. Even "MoS" has a pretty decent one in Smallville, the only good part of a film I otherwise hate hate hate hate hated.

Compared to Durst, McGrath is Tom Waits.

Man, this is taking me ALL the way back. It wasn't necessarily a better time, but it was a much more innocent time. Some of that could be because I was 11, but I dunno, the events of four years later could make any previous time feel more innocent.

…Scott Buck is showrunner of "Inhumans".

I actually like "Rises", but I agree it was a steep decline from "TDK". The steepest decline from ANY franchise would have to be "Jaws" to "Jaws 2". And then almost as bad from 2 to 3, then once you get to "The Revenge"…I mean, I'm uncertain as to whether it can even be called a movie, it's more like a string of

I believe so. And he richly deserved his happy ending.

I dunno, the fact that he was obviously a stand-in for Rupert Murdoch always pushed Elliot Carver up a few notches in my book. And I never say no to more Jonathan Pryce.

I believe that is the biggest drop in quality in the history of the franchise.

"Most of us can probably agree that 1979’s Moonraker, with its Star Wars-biting space-battle climax, is a massive low point for the series."

"Skyfall" is actually my pick for greatest film in the franchise, and I've seen every entry. It might not be iconic like "From Russia With Love" or "Goldfinger", but everything from Sam Mendes' tense direction to Roger “The Academy Must Actively Hate Me, Why Else Would They Snub Me Thirteen Goddamn Times” Deakins'

See, I'd thought that "300" was in '07, and yeah, "Casino Royale" is unquestionably it for '06. Aforementioned parkour chase is truly one of the greatest action sequences I've ever seen.

"Godzilla In Name Only," G-Fan's preferred term for Godzilla '98.

I saw GINO and "Batman & Robin" when they came out, but TECHNICALLY…the worst film I've seen on the big screen is "The Room". The fact that I saw it a subsequent four times, one of which I "Played Football" with The Auteur Himself, Mr. Wiseau, ought not be discounted.

I just…I didn't think it was possible for me to ever feel bad for Hitler. This show deserves an Emmy for that alone.

Me. Nice touch, for those who know.

…No…
