I'd say Life on Mars had a pretty brilliant ending. The UK one, at any rate. The American remake kinda blew chunks and completely missed the point by trying to tie the ending into the title. Seriously, if you're going to watch it, check out the UK version.

If you're going to quote using Freudian theory at all, you should probably be taken out back to the shed... Seriously, though. There's nothing wrong with gay marriage. As far as the ignorant Bible-lovers go, (don't get me wrong, I love me some Bible, I just like to use cool things like "reading"...

Yeah, I'm a writer. Just finished the second act in my series, The Chainsmoker's Trilogy. It should be going up on sale in the next few months. I just love the whole process of writing. Sculpting the characters, the worlds, and so on. The best feeling, by far, is that warm fuzzy glow at a book...

Right now, you're being really, really ignorant. Try talking to someone from an actual Jewish background, they'll explain it to you. Right now, by trying to talk to a descendant of Israelites, you're making an ass out of yourself.

Not to piss on any parades, but the Jewish people are technically a race. It's quite possible to not be Jewish by faith but still technically carry Jewish blood, as it is transferred from a Jewish mother to the child. Just sayin'

Isn't this essentially the plot to APT Pupil? To those saying they would harbor him, allow me to provide a counterpoint: if a man who murdered your neighbor, lived in his house and assumed his identity, but using that identity was extremely philanthropic and nice, and then one day came to you...

Here's a radical idea: Ban not smoking. I think that if you can claim it's reasonable for me, as a smoker, to be shot, stabbed, burned at the stake, or have a swift and painful death otherwise exacted on me, I think it's only fair that you should have to be a smoker. Why? Well, because we're...

An argument with a guy who was pumping our gas back in Jersey... He kept asking to see my friend's license, because he didn't think she was actually old enough to drive, and one of my friends in the backseat (also female) calmly says "Excuse me, sir... Could you come over here... Open this...

Er... Not to be a prissy ***** here... But the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris were around well before Meyer's sad attempt at anti-literature in the form of softcore porn... If you did the slightest modicum of research into modern writing, you'd find that not only are Harris's...

The logical counterpart to overwhelming male imagery is, technically speaking, the progression of feminism. Feminism has taken root in Western civilization, but it hasn't risen to the point of challenging the painfully overwhelming male authority. It's radical feminism, but nevertheless an...

Considering most things present in our culture are phallic symbols... Go for it, feminism. Seriously, the patriarchy is in dire need of some good old-fashioned overthrowing.

I would just like to say... MovieBob... Is a moron... Not because I disagree with his reviews, (on the contrary, actually. I found Scott Pilgrim to be highly engaging, and thought The Expendables was tripe) but because he's... Just kind of stupid. Here's an example: He praises Piranha 3D for...

It looks a bit like Kyle Rayner's Ion/Parralax-lite suit. In my opinion, Rayner was a far superior Lantern to Jordan, if only because Rayner actually MADE THINGS with the ring. Hal Jordan was pretty standard: boxing glove, glowing plane, glowing shield, glowing fist to pick things up... Rayner's...

Aah, Joss Whedon... What a fantastic man... Buffy, Firefly... Now the Avengers movie... Excellence incarnate.

Scream "HASTUR HASTUR HASTUR!" at the top of my lungs. He Who Must Not Be Named (the original one, of course) would appear and kill me. Cthulhu would be rather displeased with The King in Yellow jacking his kill and I'd buy a bit of time for the rest of the world to die a slightly less painful...
