Devil's advocate, but Asian cinema doesn't seem to have many white characters, so it's a bit of a non-issue.

Wasn't the League Of Shadows part of Batman Begins set in Tibet, and the Ra's Al Ghul decoy played by Ken Watanabe presumably also supposed to be Tibetan? BB was released over 10 years ago so the situation has probably changed in terms of growing access to the Chinese market, but it seems odd that a major blockbuster…

Fully sympathise. I don't react well to 'Can't Stop' either.

I like how you don't use capital letters unless going ALL CAPS. Not many people can say their punctuation reflects their thought processes, but by jiminy, thar she blows!

Never found Billy Crystal remotely funny or likeable, and this skit seems right down there at his most bottom-of-the-barrel standards. However, the AV Club is dredging up material recorded ten years ago, via a video put on YouTube two years ago, for… what reason, exactly? So Mr. Blevins can demonstrate how virtuous he…

Love the titles, although am amazed that they made a porn parody of The Office and didn't call it The Orifice. Missed a trick there, chaps, which must be a first.

Not really feeling her from that clip. It might be the script, but her sass feels entirely detached from the situation - Mackie plays it far too jokey, without any sense of the humour compensating for fear - and she and Capaldi seem to be playing two very different versions of the scene. Obviously, or hopefully, this…

The writing on these Greg Berlanti shows is getting worse and worse. I don't know if he's got a small group of writers covering all the shows and they're overstretching themselves, or if there's some other explanation, but Arrow has long since slipped into soupy melodrama, while Flash, Supergirl and LoT ignore basic…

I've been playing The Legend Of Zelda. The original, from 1986. I'm not going to hyperbolise and say it stands up amazing well or anything, with the later dungeons becoming increasingly convoluted and merely finding them a chore in often random experimentation (yes, I used a guide), but none of that takes away from…

The episode's most egregious act of misrepresentation was having the outraged forumites mostly be actual Asians, as opposed to white people getting self-righteously outraged on other people's 'behalf'.

Didn't even need his looks, his father's a clothing magnate with the sort of money that even subsidises ugly.

What… uuh, Bob Dole doesn't need this.

I like this song. It's catchy and I don't much care what it's about. Anyway, it'd be more interesting if these features had the interviewer disagreeing and challenging the interviewee sometimes, rather than constantly affirming them. I'd imagine you'd get more interesting answers were people challenged and forced to…

My personal preference is 'sprog'.

If he were really in character, he'd be violently killing people. Seems to me he's just been waiting for an excuse to send nasty shit through the mail to his co-workers.

I'm sick of Marvel movies. I'm sick of Benedict Cumberbatch's perpetual smugness. Every photo I've seen of his costume looks very stage magician.

Not going to say it was out of character, that it should be off-limits in any way, or that it lessened the episode, but Hannah going down on Ray when he clearly didn't want her to, and later laughing at Hector's story of getting beaten up and having his life threatened by his girlfriend, struck a sour note for me when…

For someone seemingly concerned about women's sexual and bodily integrity, you were awfully quick to throw out the term 'plasticised whores'.

For God's sake, this bunch of timedorks can't even kill the person whose death is their sole purpose for working together, even when he's lying unconscious in front of them. The idea of there being any tension in the idea they could kill some sprog, even one with a name as abysmal as Per Degerton, is farcical. Also,…

I referenced Ilsa in my final Film Studies exam when I was 18. I'm inordinately proud of this.
