It's the best drink ever made!
Holy FUCK do I love that first Percy Jackson movie. Better than the book IMO.
Dresden Files TV Series.
Flash! Ah-ah! He'll bore everyone of us! Seriously. Take one of the most swashbuckling heroes in sf and fantasy and come up with this boring crap free from swash and buckle. Ming, not so much meglomaniacal as middle management. Just turd city all around.

The first season of Ren and Stimpy was voiced and created by 2 deviants that got their show to air on a kids network (Fun Fact: Billy West split his time voicing cartoons and impersonating racist Reds owner Marge Shott for Howard Stern). Every episode was full of stuff that…
