    The thing to remember with TV shows is: she wasn't at the Venice boardwalk, she was at a beach played by the Venice boardwalk. (Or played by some other beach that looked like the Venice boardwalk - I don't know where this thing was actually shot). The various locations shown on the show don't have to have the same

    Wouldn't it have to say "screensaver attacks" to use SFX from Birdemic?

    It's not very sophisticated or intricate (although it does require a bit of setup to makes sense), but one little thing that consistently makes me laugh every time I see it and almost every time I think about it is a moment in an early Friends episode where Chandler and Joey had left Ross's baby on a bus and went to

    The entire point of Ma and Pa Kent - I mean, literally the only narrative purpose they serve - is that they're the ones who taught Clark to always, always do the right thing. They're the reason a guy with the power of a god chooses to only use his powers to help other people; because they taught him that's the right

    It was, indeed, a revolting development.

    Also, Reed and Sue's daughter Valeria Richards was raised for a few years in an alternate reality where Dr. Doom (who was good in that reality) married Sue after Reed died.

    Will he be backed up by Brad Staar, the living Denial of Service Attack?

    Personally, I don't even really see many outdated ideas in the FF's origin (just replace "trying to beat the Soviets to space" with "trying to build the first private civilian spacecraft" or make Reed obsessed with space travel in general - the real world has plenty of examples of eccentric billionaire geniuses

    In my experience, those travel about 99% the speed of plot, meaning they arrive anywhere just moments after it's too late to do anyone any good.

    I assume the explanation for the seemingly contradictory legality of various drugs is that the future is generally fairly permissive (I think theft is the only crime that's consistently illegal - even murder laws seem pretty lax when it's an alien or robot indiscriminately killing in a humorous way) but they DO still

    Good call. The uniform line weight and hit-or-miss fine details (compare her dress to her hair) back that up.

    You want to see the ultimate example of that? Close one eye and point your finger directly at the open one, then try to imagine drawing that as a 2-dimensional image. That's why whenever you see a drawing of someone pointing at the viewer, they'll always be pointing just slightly off, so you can see some of the length

    She's just sitting down and leaning back on one arm. Her right shoulder and upper arm are on the other side of her body and hair so you're only seeing the arm from around the elbow down. I'd bet money it was drawn from a reference photo that looks more or less exactly like that. (Actually, I quick Google image search

    I'm honestly astonished it wasn't created April 1, 2015.

    As long as you didn't try it on when you did BMs.

    I didn't disagree with all the points in the article, but there were a few I had something to say about (even though I'm sure this is well-trod ground by now):

    I may not agree with what Your Worst Nightmare! has to say, nor can I be assed to fight to the death for his/her right to say it, but there is something delightful about the line "You have a miserable life and it is because of the way you are." It's right up there with "Your music is bad and you should feel bad."

    Geez, some people just can't stop reliving the Punic Wars. Hannibal's been dead over 2,000 years, man. Get some closure.

    While I will probably never stop taking any excuse to insist that Alan Tudyk and Morena Baccarin would have been the ideal Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne, preferably in the first Avengers movie, (see? I did it just then) I liked this movie a lot. I'd probably put it solidly in the middle of the official Marvel movies.

    Considering how many cases there have been exactly like this, how is rule number one of making a talking kids' toy not "Make absolutely positive it enunciates clearly enough that no one can possibly misunderstand what it's saying"? And rules number two and three "No gibberish" and "Sofa cures elves."
