Until Flash/ Legends of Tomorrow did it even worse.

Alas, it took almost a decade for the talking polar bears to show up.

No wait,
They should show Fusco coming out of a bank, muttering about how his pension is still terminated.
He stops and looks at a gathered crowd in front of a tv set. The World Series is just starting.
Root's voice speaks over his phone: I have a feeling the Yankees will win in 6.
Kevin Chapman glances up at a camera…

That was a fantastically understated moment.

Yes, the official Facebook page was painful to browse with all those "fans."

The Machine could help him win one big poker game, like during Finch's training flashback, and he's set.

>. I can't imagine a show that would more perfectly sum up what it was like to live in the 2010s than this one.
Does Mr. Robot take the mantle now?

>if that missle had knees Reese would have shot the shit out of them for old times sake.

"Big Sister" continues.

I remember the big debate of the time was Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out" vs. Modest Mouse's "Float On." Even the videos resembled each other!

Series favorite henchmen? Hersh!

The "You're too old" line, and the context, was one of the greatest moments in television history.

Are there are any good articles or dvd special features that detailed the writers' decision to add Shaw?

I'm serious when I say the line in Flex Mentallo, "Being clever's a fine thing, but sometimes a boy just needs to get out of the house and meet some girls." really hit me.
I was perhaps at my most cynical and shut-in stage in my life when I read that.

Speaking of "A government official is found murdered exactly on the border between two countries. She’s bisected in half, legs in country, torso on the other (except, those legs aren’t really hers).", I'm surprised there hasn't been a tv adapation of Bon Cop Bad Cop yet.

For Oshii, the ultimate example of "slowing things down" may be "Angel's Egg." It's 71 minutes but has less than 12 lines of spoken dialogue.

Totally agree about the EC Comics vibe.

I guess this is as good place as any to mention The Final Girls (2015). The snarky, meta stuff is hit or miss, but the movie actually had a deep, meaningful core about coping with the loss of a parent.

Drag Me To Hell felt like an Evil Dead spinoff.

Mitch Pileggi!
