Also the Wade Boggs episode. Charlie's "I got all the numbers!" Cracks me up.

The only episode I would call bad is Franks Brother. There's almost nothing good about it.

It's a near daily occurrence for either my wife or I to say "we won't, you can though!" In an exasperated Dennis imitation.

I understand what you mean, and agree: parks that weren't male-centric would likely make a ton of money too. Just not as much, and not as quickly. While I think it's changing, marketing is very much male-centric (and discriminating, too). The entire business of television was built on ratings of men 18-35 because…

Modest Mouse - Little Hotel is still tough for me to listen to. I heard it the first time on a trip to Costa Rica by myself after breaking up with a long term girlfriend. Almost ten years later, it still gives me the chills and makes me tear up.

Good lord, that article is terrifying! It's hard to comprehend that magnitude of child sexual exploitation and abuse.

I wanted to like it. The subject matter is pretty funny, and obviously The Rock can be hilarious. But the tonal shifts were too wacky for me, and it was just too much of a mess in the end.

Don't worry about Pain and Gain. It was terrible.

This list reminds me that I sometimes feel like the only person to ever visit AV Club that doesn't absolutely love Wet Hot American Summer. I just don't get it. Maybe it's because I saw it for the first time recently and missed my opportunity.

And you may even be able to tell specific stories, if the details are non-identifying. Still, megagross.

Jolly Green Jizz-Face is hilarious, but it's second to Jizzy Gillespie

Ghost Rider has always been my favorite comic character(s). I loved the 90s Danny Ketch series, then went back and became a fan of the 70s Jonny Blaze series. I wish they would make the movie from the 90s series, with Danny Ketch as Ghost Rider in late 80s/early 90s New York, riding a sport bike.

I remember Pump It Up! They played tons of the Zulu Nation stuff, which led me to my love of ATCQ.

So how did Pat get to California from Florida so quickly? And why would he bother going all the way down to Panama just to get to the west coast? Seems like it would make more sense just to stay on the east coast.

That's true. I originally read the situation as heroism on his part in the present, but rewatching it and seeing comments here, I realize that he never had the opportunity for heroism. Bran broke his brain, gave him a life of mockery, ridicule, and frustration, then killed him.

Damn, I thought the silver lining to the tragedy was that Hodor was heroic in his dying moments. But that may not actually be the case. For that to be true, Bran would have had to have stopped controlling him at the end, and watching it again, there isn't any indication that happened. So it's just pure tragedy,…

It's true that Bran's significance has been more "told" than "shown" so far, but we do have reason to believe he's special. He is capable of the same visions as the three-eyed raven, which I don't think everyone (anyone else?) is. And he was able to warg into Hodor in the present and remain conscious and active in…

Interesting. I don't like feeling emotionally manipulated, but I didn't feel that way with Hodor's story. I guess that's always a risk with creating such emotionally impactful moments though - that some folks will feel that it's manipulative or over wrought. And it seems to me that much of the series' (books and…

Interesting. So it seems that your issue is more with the "rules" of how the Night King and Children of the Forest (and their home, the cave) interact. Not really the death of Hodor.

I'm surprised to see some folks thinking the Hodor reveal was cheap, rushed, etc. Do you mind elaborating more on that? I enjoyed it both from a plot perspective (especially the idea that Bran can affect the past and introduce time loops) and from an emotional perspective. I honestly expected Willas' mental damage…
