  1. Just saw it and I was in heaven throught the whole show. REALLY damn fun. This episode was delirious fun, enjoed the hell outta it.
  2. I disagree that the Lazarus Experiement is as insanely boring as you guys said it was. It's one of my favorites from series 3. I can't exactly say why other than I like the interplay of the Doctor and Martha in it. I think that has a nice outing, and the clip Mike put it at the beginning with the Doctor excited over the impossible happening, stuff like that hooks me. It's not the BEST of the series, admittedly, but I think there's fun to be had. I will agree that it didn't need the extended third act. 42 I did get a Satan Pit vibe from very heavily. No strong love for that. Lazarus Experiment has a socft spot in my heart.
  3. NOTHING can ruin the hilarious awesomeness that is Baleman screaming "WHERE'S THE TRIGGER!!!" while punching Bane over and over again.
  4. Get the trades of Cassandra Cain Batgirl from Kelley Puckett and Damion Scott. Some of the best, most underrated comics ever. Damn DC for iggin' this character. Any and all Robin and Nightwing stories by Chuck Dixon.
  5. I love how trollish Smith and Coleman are in those videos.
  6. What gets me about this is that Gohan is shown to be a Super Saiyan, which after the Buu saga by all rights he shouldn't be.
  7. Just came from the theater. Casino Royale's hard to beat, but this is definitely Craig's second best over Quantum. The film nearly goes to Die Another Day lengths to get the anniversary reference jokes across, but it stays true to the focus of the movie for the most part. Will loyally e-mail in later, but I enjoyed it..!
  8. I like Tennant in that scene. I think the dutch angles camp it up about 20 knots.
  9. "Rape-stained bikini" That's a phrase which will require some therapy-ing out of my head.
  10. My friend listened to the Casino Royale audiobook before re-watching the 2006 movie for the first time since it caem out on opening day. It makes me wanna re-watch it as well before Skyfall hits the US.

    Episode 270

    EXCELLENT episode! FWIW the Australian episode was two seasons later in Season Six, and there is a Treehouse of Horror collection out there. It's only a handful of them, with TOH III, V, VI and the one with the Harry Potter spoof.
  12. Ironically enough, a friend recommended/dared me to watch this show and said that this was the first anime that she ever saw and she loves it. I might still agree that unless you know the tropes of harem anime, you might not get the gags, but I think Ouran still has some intriguing stuff to invest a newbie to the anime world enough to watch. I read about that the whole Host Club thing was a take on a much seedier real life thing, but not sure what exactly it is. Also, what in the series indicated that Haruhi may be into girls?
  13. The whole "better when I was younger" thing is common for all things with a fandom. Television in general, specific series, and especially comics. I remember Alan Moore admitting he liked DW best during the Hartnell era.
  14. Here's a question: If Trevelan planned for Bond for die in the pre-title sequence, why go through the ruse that he's assassinated by Orumov? Why wouldn't 006 just kill him?
  15. You're gonna love the Flashpoint movie then!

    DC reboot

    Morrison did "Something" like that during Batman & Robin. Where Joker laced Joker venom under his nails, and whomever he scratched, would be poisoned. It was in issue 13 of that series. I want to see Snyder's story pan out, and then, take Joker off the table for about 2-3 years, and have him return when he's had time to be missed. I think part of the problem right now is, there's so many Batman books these days, it's hard to actually have a good villain off the grid for a while for readers to miss them. And with a character like the Joker, who every writer can adapt to their own styles, it's hard to keep him away for long. This has been done a number of times in the recent past, tho. He dissappeared after he was shot in the face at the start of Morrision's Batman run. He dissapeared after Damien ran him over at the end of Batman R.I.P. He was missing during most of the Batman Reborn arc until the end of Morrison's Batman and Robin run. And he was gone for a year after 'Tec #1. I agree with you in that he should be used sparingly, but he's been taken off of the table frequently in the past 6 or so years.

    DC reboot

    Maybe Magog is brought into the New 52, and everything ends up turning into Kingdom Come.

    DC reboot

    I always thought that it would make an interesting story if one of the other DC heroes like Wonder Woman killed the Joker. It'd be biting too much off of the Maxwell Lord thing, but would make for good tension. Superman and Batman are really the only heroes in comics with a no-kill policy these days anyway. Spidey tries to maintain, but every other hero by this point has said "Fuck it."
