In all fairness, don't we all cheerily advocate for the enslavement of the elderly?

Damn. As soon as I read the headline, I was all set to love this. And don't get me wrong, it's not a bad song by any means. But it isn't "Telephone Line" or "Livin' Thing" or "Strange Magic" or pretty much any song they contributed to the "Xanadu" soundtrack. It's Electric Light Orchestra, but it doesn't rank with

My dream has always been to be the deaf daughter of an Elvis impersonator without having to a) witness a murder or b) appear on a television show with a Texas ranger. It's probably not gonna happen at this point in my life, but I can still dream.

While the movie doesn't really seem to be saying anything really new or exciting, I'm hoping Sarah Silverman is as good in it as she appears to be based on the trailer, and I'm also hoping if she is as good as she appears, the movie ends up being successful enough to encourage her to do more movies. I love when people

While I won't be reading the book - no disrespect to Mr. MacManus, I'm just not into memoirs and biographies - I think that's actually a pretty cool idea. A lot of times I'll be reading an article and the writer will mention a song, giving some insight into it that I hadn't known or realized, and I immediately have to

Forget the stars, I love the quote, attributed to that Pulitzer Prize-winning critic "Huffington Post Blog". Next week, maybe they'll feature a quote from "Amazon Commenter".

Holy shit, that's an excellent picture of her. I'd be interested to know why she feels this documentary is unfair, but it's Aretha, so I'm pretty good with honoring whatever her wishes are.

I didn't think Marmaduke was the height of humor, but I always liked it. While I'm sad at anyone's death, I'm actually glad that he lived to 91 and still continued doing what he obviously loved.

The final ten or so minutes was some of the best work I've ever seen. I was honestly surprised by how much I had become invested in every single character, since I've been watching the show sporadically for the better part of a year. But the best scene has to be the introduction of the new van driver. Jesus Fuck, that

Since the book acted as an introduction to the series and has no real end, just stopping randomly, how are they going to make a movie out of it?

I thought Janet Jackson's "When I Think Of You" was one-shot?

When I was eleven, I got the flu. I remember lying in my Mom's bed (it was downstairs, so it was easier to look after me during the day) and seeing a paperback copy of "The Hobbit". I believe chapter six was called "Riddles", and I thought it was actually a chapter of riddles, so I started reading. I quickly realized

Damn, thanks for reminding me of painful memories I had completely erased, LOL.

Couldn't we get Man of Steel -1 instead, and pretend the last Superman movie made was sometime in the early '80s?

Hi Gwen. Thank you for this reminder. I just found a collection on ebay of all three of her books and bought it. I had completely forgotten how much I loved this book as a kid. Thanks again! :-)

I remember reading that book as a kid. Wasn't one of the jokes that Boris always had a cold, and when he made a beetloaf, she thought he was saying meatloaf? I mean, seriously, who would make a beetloaf, LOL. Now I'm gonna have to go on Ebay and get all three books. I didn't know she wrote two sequels, and I remember

I'm guessing I am not the target audience. The last thirty minutes or so never rose above mind-boggingly stupid. I mean, really, if I was a top Secret Service dude who knew how dangerous pretty boy was, of course I'd bring an innocent girl with me because why not? And why wouldn't a small town high school be able to

Agreed!

Just to be contrary (because why not?), I love Alan Tudyk from his "28 Days" movie and the plant. That he was on "Firefly" and "Dollhouse" is just icing on the cake. He - like pretty much everyone else that ever lived or ever will live - was gay for Sandra Bullock, and he was perfect at it.

Almost two years later, I finally watched the last half of the final season. I could have finished watching the last episode last night, but instead put it off for one more night because I didn't want to face the ending. And what an ending. I think it is fair to argue that "Breaking Bad" is one of the best television
