And many, many equations.

It's actually Donnie Wahlberg, not Mark, but yes.

I read this book over the weekend, it was the nerdiest book I have ever read.

First off, one does not mention Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes in polite company.

Turn is remarkable to me in that it has so many good elements, great story, great actors, beautiful period sets and costumes, and it just. doesn't. click. It's like ALMOST a fantastic show, but is instead kind-of-good.

I was just watching it last night, and was so struck by how terrible Moore and Vaughn are in it. Not the acting, they're just horrible ideologues. They're essentially to environmentalism what a KKK member is to racism.

Jurassic Park 2 is not some neglected classic. It's fucking terrible. Jeff Goldblum is the least obnoxious person in the movie… Jeff Goldblum!

My cousin gave us his discarded virtual boy, and I was amazed by it as a child. We had one game, Mario Tennis, you couldn't play it for more than thirty minutes, but I thought it was the coolest, most futuristic thing ever made. I was about six though, so there you go.

I definitely think Sam is gone when Jon is stabbed. The night's watch would gut Sam like a pig if he were around. Dolorous Edd presumably has friends from his years in the watch outside of Jon Snow. Ser Piggy most certainly does not.

Semen EVERYWHERE

So they're taking a risk on a guy who helmed three blockbuster films that were all pretty much laser focused on his character. Oh, and Good Will Hunting, Contagion, The Informant! The Talented Mr. Ripley; and a major supporting role in another blockbuster film trilogy: Ocean's 11, 12 and 13.

Wait, you actually thought the entire movie could have been him trying and failing to make contact with NASA, then dying without ever interacting with another character?

It's like everyone from Interstellar got together to make a space movie that wasn't a bunch of metaphysical rambling!

But then the audience *gasp* might have to learn the names of a couple more characters. I swear D&D create a show based on one of the most complex fantasy novels ever made, then the second they get full control they don't trust anyone to remember anything.

Oh, duh! Oh course it was Melissandre! How the hell did I not figure that out??

I think people generally confuse actual political conflict with bloggers making a name for themselves, and political strategists trying to take advantage. You look at any of the faux controversies of the past ten years, the people that just relentlessly ignore the blogosphere turn out just fine. It's when people…

No work of fiction of this kind ever lets the sentries do their damn jobs. They always get slaughtered like some dingusses. Usually an army has outriders, as well as sentries, and tracking even twenty men in deep snow would be a breeze. I guess they "knew the land". In the books the north is riddled with underground…

No, he burns Florent on the beach in the books as well. He does it for supposedly betraying him by trying to make peace, but he is still burned.

It was the betrayal of people who are supposed to care. I can take callous violence anyday, that's not foreign. Stannis, and her yelling for him while he had her burned. Ugh that was awful.

No… I may just not seek this stuff out. I mean, I've seen Audition. I've seen some sick horror. I think what got me was the parental indifference from Stannis.
