Agreed. The smarter move — in my completely unqualified opinion — would be to go in a lighter Marvely direction. They're not going to do the gritty superhero thing better than Nolan, and they'll be killed by comparison.

No hipster would ever listen to 30 Seconds to Mars. Nor would any discerning music listener.

I hate the '00s trend of shitty rock bands naming themselves after already well-known books and films. Not naming themselves after characters, references or passages from the books. Just a wholesale lift of the name. They're names that are too specific to be accidental. Offenders include:

For what it's worth, I ended my student radio show with the long version of "In-A-Godda-Da-Vida". I hate that song, but I hated the guy who had the show after me even more.

The show has been simultaneously showing us things that take place in two different times:

We need a sister piece: "If Everything Worked Like People Who Bitch About Cable Want"

Yeah, I'm not sure that the AV Club comments are the best place to trash TV as a whole. People have been lynched for less.

I saw Artie at the Comedy Cellar a few years ago. He started doing a bit about my wife being hot. If I ever lose my wife to Artie Lange, I need to reevaluate EVERYTHING.

I remember this song as being much cooler and tougher than it was. It's probably because I was only familiar music video: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

The Exploding Hearts! I'm so glad to see them included here, and I'm so sad about their tragic ending. "Modern Kicks" is such a tremendous, explosive song.

Bob Dylan's "Shelter from the Storm" - the live version from 1976's "Hard Rain"

Yes. This. It may have been a classical, throwback horror, but it was also incredibly bland and mediocre. Nothing new or exceptional here.

Jews right the best Christmas songs.
Four-time divorcees write the best marriage songs.

I definitely understand your hesitation, but I'd counter with:

From one Hoosier to another, I love this. However …

I'd argue that ABC is the strongest network for comedy right now. Black-ish, The Goldbergs and Fresh Off The Boat are all worthy of your love and admiration.

I'll never comment on this AV Club article … … … because I died from canceraids.

There's a big difference between asking for permission and asking for one's blessing. To me, it's a sign of respect to the people who raised your future spouse. The gender stuff of it (only the man asking only the dad) is a bit old fashioned. My wife's father is out of the picture. I asked my wife's mothrr and twin…

Meanwhile, Pepsi has pulled its sponsorship of "Perry Mason" reruns.

Having grown up in a small town in Indiana, I can say with 100% certain that 16 was the best age for millions of Jacks and Dianes.
