I know it was a long time ago and he's changed a bit since then, but remember when Capaldi's Doctor told a space marine that she would have been companion material if only she wasn't a soldier? And when he assumed Danny Pink was a moron because he'd been a soldier? Being against solving problems with guns was pretty…

Pine's best work is the fresh evergreen scent of a Canadian forest on a crisp winter night.

I'll take your word for the availability of non d6 dice. The story I'd always heard was that Dave Wesley saw plastic polyhedrons in an educational toy catalog and played on Gary Gygax's love of statistics to sell him and Dave Arenson on using them as dice, and that they hadn't been widely used in games before that,…

In AD&D 2e, a Fighter would get two attacks per round at 7th level with a weapon on which he or she was specialized, and 13th level with other weapons. Basically, your attack rate improved at every six levels and specialization bumped you up one notch.

Technically, Community got that right. Technically. In the earliest versions of D&D* the DM was supposed to do all the dice rolling. Which made sense because back when D&D first came out, there were no gaming stores, no dice companies, and virtually no other games that used dice other than six-siders, so buying a D&D…

Maybe it's because Liv only eats brains every now and then and only one at a time. Maybe if you eat brains as often as possible you develop resistance to the personality shifts, and/or if you eat brains from multiple people in a short span of time, the different personalities kind of cancel each other out.

Ooh, they could sell people slices of brain from someone who watched the entire run of a TV series and make it like one-bite binge watching. You could do some great crossover promotion with a blue piece of brain that contains all of Breaking Bad.

I'm kind of surprised the show hasn't done more with the idea of eating different parts of the brain causing different kinds of visions. Like "he probably saw his killer, but the occipital lobe was too damaged, so I'm only getting auditory flashbacks this time, sorry."

How about Romeo and Juliet AS Zombies?

Could be that being highly legalistic swings both ways: on the one hand, their rules about what constitutes legitimate consent are even more restrictive than any Earthly legal system* but on the other hand, they could have all kinds of loopholes about passing power of attorney - like a person being rendered disabled…

Hey, Bill's decision actually makes sense. Think about it this way: the Doctor was, only minutes earlier, trying to convince everyone not to submit to the zombie monks, not because they might be lying about the world being destroyed, not because the destruction of all life on Earth might be preferable to whatever they…

I think there are a lot of reasons why Superman gets turned into a dictator more often than Batman. (Power level isn't as big a factor as you'd think, though - if you believe Lex Luthor could take over the world, you have to believe Bruce Wayne could too). In no particular order:

I feel like more and more nowadays, whenever I get an asshole notification, I just end up sitting there all broken hearted.

So next season is probably going to be "some other mental landscape"? It's a damn shame that the "TV characters recast as Star Wars characters" thing has been done to death, because between Archer's love of sci-fi references, the sheer number of easy plot parallels (people constantly getting limbs cut off and replaced…

Has the Thinker ever teamed up with the Rainbow Raider and Tarmack?

To be fair, you could fanwank that as a situation, like in "Oxygen," where Nardole was going along with things during the adventure, then chewed the Doctor out when they got back to the vault.

Unless that's what they're into.

But an alien that can control the minds of everyone on Earth has already taken over the planet. Unless you're specifying that the technology that causes everyone to only be able to think of the same numbers can't be used to put any other ideas in their head, which such a weirdly specific tech that it could only be…

Honestly, I'm surprised that they don't just wait until a president leaves office to include him (or, hopefully, eventually, her). It's a pretty big gamble that an animatronic made during the first year of a president's first term will still be considered a good representation of their entire tenure in office. What if…

I'd say Kill Bill vol. 1 and The Raid are the biggest locks on your list, followed closely by Fury Road. Casino Royale is a good call, but I could see him saying that James Bond movies are "too much their own thing" to appear above the "other notable action movies" section.
