So, question: why was no-legs guy allowed to walk free and give the beetle artifact to the guy with the magic syringe? I mean, you know he's been running a front that lets agents of the other side communicate back home. Even if he says he has no idea what's going on, you interrogate him and search his shop for…

I can't be the only one who saw that second trailer and thought "Cowboy Bebop," can I?
I think something like 75% of the Xtranormal videos I've seen have been of the "one person suggests increasingly stupid ideas while the other person alternates between shooting the ideas down and threatening to shoot the first person down" variety. Not that I'm complaining; I just think Xtranormal should add some…
@CanisPugnaxSnores: Actually, it appears this poster was based on that TV Tropes page, or at the very least they share a common source: the classification levels are identical.
@corpore-metal: Not that we don't already have tons of symbiotic bacteria, but the trick is that these don't exist as a single species; we have entire ecosystems of symbiotic bacteria, which provides greater robustness and stability. If you tried introducing a new species of symbiotic bacteria to a tissue which…
For the curious, the "empathy" bacteria worked by designing two populations of bacteria, each of which senses the concentration of the other population. When one population starts dying due to antibiotics, the other (antibiotic-resistant) population recognizes this and starts producing more of a signaling molecule,…
@rwald: Sorry about the double post...and the edit button isn't working for me at the moment. Mods, feel free to delete the extra post.
"Which one of these muppets is Captain Jack going to try and mack on?" Really? Is that a question? The answer is clearly "all of them, especially Trekkie Monster." The internet is for Jack slashfic, after all.

Meredith, you should have mentioned the whole "From the director of Twilight" thing in the text blurb, so I would have known to not waste 80 seconds of my life watching this.

According to that screenshot, the question wasn't "Who played the Doctor for the longest period?", but "Who played Dr Who for the longest period?" Since David Tennant very specifically insisted that he be credited as "The Doctor" at the end of the episodes, and not "Doctor Who," he's disqualified before you even begin…
@Daft: Ah, I figured they had the same person do both the soundtrack and trailer music. It's possible the same distinction is happening here, where Daft Punk isn't doing the music for the Tron: Legacy trailers; still, whoever is seems to have been more than a little inspired by Mind Heist.
@PsygnosisKY: Such as Mein Kampf? I can't seem to recall it make much mention of either atheism or communism...
Am I the only one kind of annoyed that Kuiper is pronounced to rhyme with "viper"? I know the guy it's named after was Dutch, but still, "Kuiper" rhyming with "viper"? Really?
Not made on enough drugs to be a true Zardoz homage.
I thought the "Sean searching for Laila/Laila trying and failing to escape" subplot was decent; for example, presumably they intentionally had one of their co-conspirators drive around in a cop car near where she was being held, to make sure she'd go to him for help.
@dandank: Based on her, ahem, "assets," I don't think you have to wonder too much about Spider-Woman.
I actually went to the Netherworld haunted house last weekend; what they mean by "a physical environment audience members can actually be afraid of" is that every room looks like it came out of a horror movie: a mad scientist's lair, a haunted graveyard, a vampire's mansion, even a room with spinning spiked columns.…
