And, contrary to what they say in the video, it ended up being directed by Nicholson rather than Towne.

Naaaaaaahhh.

"We could deal with the fallout of all the idiotic things that happened in the third movie… but fuck it, here's some Space Whales."

I actually listened to about 8 seconds of it. The pitch-correction on the audio comes out so lossy and manufactured that the voices all sound like robot queefs. Meanwhile, punny references do little to enhance my enjoyment.

Is this another one of those things where they snip out individual syllables from dialogue, auto-tune them to almost approximate the notes of a popular song that everyone's already heard a million times anyway, and paste it all together in a rapid succession of cuts that's really jarring and unpleasant?

He apparently represents a ton of Internet Memes. Even ones that aren't actually alive or even tangible, like Nyan Cat. He's also an insufferable hipster twat. He's briefly profiled in the Lil Bub documentary (although he does NOT represent Bub, to Bub's Dude's credit).

I am seriously anticipating the day when an intrepid journalist uncovers the fact that owner's kids are all named after leaders of the Third Reich.

My ex was an intern at Rachael Ray's magazine. While her exposure to Ray was fairly minimal, the few times that the woman came into the offices, she was batshit nuts. No one on the magazine staff was allowed to look at her, she locked herself in a bathroom for hours, and apparently there's a particular brand of wine…

Sure, it was boring to the Olivia Munn-ogling Code Monkey-enjoying Gamer-Gating ADHD spazzes who loved G4. But some of us don't need to watch a grown woman lick a Wiimote in order to enjoy television programming.

What the video neglects to highlight is just how schizophrenic (and just flat-out misogynistic) the network got, re: the branding vs the actual content, just before they gave up and resorted to full-on "Cops" marathons. Promising dense gamer/nerd culture yet only producing X-Play and AOTS amid reruns of Quantum Leap.

You and me and nobody else, buddy.

Just because they weren't writing the reviews, that doesn't mean they weren't playing the games.

He can lick my Ball Bot.

An argument with my friend over Leto's immense shittiness brought up an intriguing question: Why has Paul Reubens never played The Joker?

I got to attend the premiere last week, and I have to say, the movie is actually all message and no nature. They show him and his beard (Knightley) fawning over each other. But you never once see him in any physical or romantic contact with another man. Not even once.

That's what my fiancee keeps calling him.

SHMELMONNN!

Yes, always.
