But where Pacific Rim’s monsters—mostly Lovecraftian tentacle creatures with little personality—come up short, its Jaeger mech suits are the coolest giant robots this side of Jet Jaguar.

Actually...

Q is far, far better than it has any right to be. The characters and dialogue are incredibly engaging. If you have Shudder right now, there’s a Joe Bob Briggs hosted version up. It’s one of his favorite movies, so all his host segments are a blast.

I think there was a bit of a car chase involved re: how they got away. It was basically a moment of opportunity (albeit pre-arranged), and the guys tasked with guarding them gave chase... of course the guys who let them get away probably knew that was the end of them back in North Korea. 

What’s I find amusing was that Pulgasari’s director and his ex-wife escaped their captors by just walking away from them at a Viennese film festival and getting political asylum at the US Embassy.

Bought 12 tickets to IMAX Godzilla for Friday. Each of my 3 boys is bringing two friends.

The only honorable way to deal with a kaiju is the Dum Dum Dugan Method: shrink em down to punching size with Pym Particles and challenge them to fisticuffs.

One of my favorite comic moments ever....

That hurts.

Oh my god, those reviews are priceless: “I got a free cat in the box with my purchase, but I’m not sure if I should open it to see if it’s okay.”

You can buy a very small amount of uranium on Amazon for use in science experiments. The customer reviews are priceless: “Seller was much more reliable than the Libyans I bought plutonium from in a mall parking lot.” “I ordered this, but when I opened the box 5.4 million years later, half of it was gone!”

He also claimed to be afraid of people who “had the ability to shock his genitals with their minds.”

Fun fact: the carrier featured in The Voyage Home was actually the non-nuclear USS Ranger (CV-61), playing the role of Enterprise (CVN 65).

On a related note, one of the most notorious (and now valuable) toys was a 1950s kit made by Gilbert called the Atomic Energy Lab. It came with geiger counter, cloud chamber, spinthariscope and four kinds of uranium ore.

“Counselor Troi, have you ever thought about wearing more sweaters? MAKE IT SO!”

Close enough to Cinemax that you will get caught masturbating to it by your mother!*

Myself, i’d not rebuild King’s Landing, it’d only remerge as a den of scum and villany. And it’s more useful as a burnt-out necropolis, a reminder to the people that things sucked before, but things are better now.

Redistribute the survivors into Highgarden, where the food will be. And re-establish the royal seat near…

I love Billy West as much as the next guy who knows who Billy West is, but I would be surprised to find that the “not insignificant portion” you mention constitutes more than five percent of the potential audience. Actually, I’d guess that the percentage of the audience who even knows the name Billy West is around…

Benjamin acts the hell out of his roles. Bob Belcher is an extremely emotional guy, and Benjamin is able to go from incoherent rage to choked up joy to amused bewilderment like nobody’s business.
