Mark Hamill did not do OK; he did fantastically. He's the Joker and Fire Lord Ozai, and probably in the top five voice actors I've ever heard.

I would agree with you. As much as I have started to hate Benedict Cumberbatch lately (he's in EVERYTHING), Star Trek Into Darkness was at least a good film for me, watchable, a few plotholes here and there (like a teleporter).

A lot of those movies are decent kids films (except for Aladdin and Pocahontas). Haven't seen Enchanted or Hunchback, but the Hellfire song in the latter is fantastic.

I think that a TV show is always better if the writers have a clear idea of when to end it., and do it in a very final way. Potentially, a TV show could go for a full 20 seasons and still end well as long as the writers have a clear idea of how they want to end it.

No, what I meant was the fifth season is a good season to end the show. Buffy would have been better if it had ended on its fifth season, Angel too, plus those examples you mentioned. Probably a lot of sitcoms as well.

I usually find that fifth season is the cut off point, but yeah, about then is when a show goes down hill.

He's not half as overused as Tauriel, but the main problem is not that they are in there, but that it comes at the expense of Bilbo. He's the main character, e's a joy to watch but it felt like he was hardly in it. The meaningless subplots were easily the worst part of the Hobbit.

Plus Korra, which has now displaced Mulan in girl hair cutting scenes for me.

"Meat lovers! As in, the contents enjoyed eating meat! or at least, that's what the guy told me before Fat Tony got to him."

You're dead on about Alfrid and Tariel. The former has no resolution in his story, the latter should not exist. Oh, and yay for Thorin's golden psychotic scene (his portrayal is the best thing out of any of the Hobbit films).

Second seasons are the best in almost everything that planned to have a third season.

It would be great if they found thematic parallels between the currently airing episode and whatever they were doing in terms of classic, then they could do a double sized review comparing both.

She's a hero, she can save the child then the world.

The RNG levelups can really screw you over. In one Blazing Sword playthrough I got Florina to level 14 and she didn't level up strength once.

Playing through "Fire Emblem Awakening" which I just got, up to chapter 20 by now. Its map design isn't great and the overarching plot hit a high point in chapters 9/10 but hasn't done anything as good as that yet but the cast is great, supports are explained much better and don't require a guide like in Blazing…

I believe the first use of it was in the Zero punctuation review for the Witcher, where he criticized it for being needlessly complicated, so I'm pretty sure it was originally ironic.

To be fair, the recommend function can also be really helpful. I'd have never known Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood was on Netflix otherwise, since they don't have an Anime genre search.

Making a movie about the events of that phone call, and having them involve Wolverine in some manner would have been a better Wolverine film than Origins.

Actually I thought that Argo went out of its way to be fair, with the opening sequence depicting the Shah, operation Boot/Ajax and the terrible Western diplomacy that led to the revolution.

It would be the only possible way to make Jack Ryan interesting, and it still wouldn't work most likely.
