I dunno, it might be kind of nice if all the world's racist assholes were confined within one country's borders.

And the child slavery.

Whether or not John Steinbeck ever actually said it, this quote says it all:

That reminds me of an old interview with Conan O'Brien, where he wondered if there's some genius out there who was supposed to cure cancer, but won't get the chance to do that simply because Conan took his spot at Harvard.

As if this is going to be a surprise in this day and age, that's already here:

The comments got me wondering: are there people out there somewhere whose favorite Indy movie isn't Raiders?

Mrs. BlahBlah hadn't seen the Indy movies, and one night we just happened to flip over to Temple of Doom right at the heart-removal scene. As Mola Ram started laughing maniacally as the guy's heart burst into flames in his hand, I said, "so anyway, he's the bad guy" as I realized that this is not a movie of great…

Yeah, but those all-black SS uniforms must have been impossible to keep clean.

3. His pants fall down on national TV.

"…if he were to share a new expletive-filled rant about how much he hates Trump and everybody in the administration…"

Wait, is the Dark Tower movie really an adaptation of the entire book series? I guess I had assumed it was Part 1 of a planned franchise. No?

I wouldn't describe Ellaria as a "good guy" in any way, but I'm with you on the rest of that paragraph. Headey brought so much to a simple line like "You took her from me. Why did you do that?", momentarily showing just a glimpse of humanity before she quickly buried it again. And credit where it's due: Indira Varma…

"Demoncraps" is my current favorite, and by "my current favorite" I mean "the stupidest thing I've ever heard."

It's a whazy. It's a woozie.

I joked about it here in the pre-season, but I really would have been fine with this season starting with Dany already on the Iron Throne, without a lot of details on what happened, and I'm frankly not thrilled with them making Dany vs Cersei more even-handed; at times it feels like D&D are trying to run out the clock…

He got him to confess, which amounted to nothing.

Hey, Oberyn went into that fight with three goals: (1) get the Mountain to confess, (2) kill him, and (3) not die. He went 2 for 3, and on this show, that ain't bad.

They already thought he was nuts when he told them about the White Walkers; they'd be ready to squirt the Westerosi equivalent of lithium down his throat with a turkey baster if he started in about his death and resurrection.

My gut says that Theon lives, and Yara dies but takes Euron with her.

I think Riverrun held out mainly because the siege was being carried out by some of the idiot Freys. Once Jaime and Bronn appeared on the scene, it wasn't going to last much longer one way or another.
