    No Right Answer: Is All-Female Ghostbusters Sexist?

    There's an argument that is obvious to me, but that you mostly seemed to miss (Dan did touch on it): yes, we the movie-going public want to see more women in movies. But making "The female Ghostbusters" is the most patronizing way possible to do it. Yes they'll give us a movie with an all-female...

    Feed Dump: Library Pee Sale

    I have in fact written and performed a parody of Freefallin' called Freeballin'. It went over well. There's probably a recording of it somewhere, but I have no idea where. Sorry, ladies.

    8 Bit Philosophy: Why do Haters Hate?

    Calls video "Why do Haters Hate" then doesn't answer the question. Fabulous.

    No Right Answer: Subbing Vs. Dubbing

    First off, shoutout to Red vs Blue on the shelf I prefer subtitles. I have yet to watch any dubbed movie (other than Kung Pow) where the actors doing the redubbing were able to actually capture the tone and meaning of what's being said. It's always basically a flat reading of lines, and that...

    No Right Answer: Worst Pre-Order Sin Ever

    I should get the preorder code because I don't have a PS4. The irony and meta that would be involved in giving me the code are both epic.

    Star Citizen Too Much Game for Consoles to "Handle"

    $48 million is not 4.8 trillion pennies. It's 4.8 billion pennies.

    The Big Picture: The Fall of Kevin Smith, Part II

    Mallrats was basically pitched as "Clerks in a mall." Then it was marketed incredibly poorly. Personally, I really like the movie, flaws and all. As for the upcoming part 3, I don't know what Bob's planning to say, but I'm of the opinion that Clerks 2 is actually far superior to the original...

    Jimquisition: The Poison of Pre-Order Culture

    Isn't preordering basically crowdfunding? And haven't we as a society decided that crowdfunding is a good thing? Beyond the scale of the publisher, what's really the difference between backing Wasteland 2 at the $100 level for all sorts of goodies, and pre-ordering a AAA title for all sorts of...

    No Right Answer: Best TV Drama Ever

    What about ER? A show with amazing characters, several multi-year storylines, and whose premise allows it to continue for as long as they feel like making it. It launched dozens of careers including George Clooney, spawned a copycat show called Chicago Hope, without it House likely wouldn't have...

    No Right Answer: TV Show That Should Be A Videogame

    I think I'm missing something here: why is he not allowed to talk about video games?

    Jimquisition: Copyright War

    Publishers really need to wrap their heads around the fact that having Let's Plays be freely available online serves to increase their sales by giving them free publicity. In today's world, it's all word-of-mouth that makes sales.

    Jimquisition: Who "Won" The Next-Gen Launch?

    I somehow knew you were going to pick the Wii U. It might have been how much you've fawned over it in the past; yeah, probably that.

    Jimquisition: Vertigo

    Way to completely miss the point. The point is that all male protagonists are not created equal, but all female protagonists are. It's not the existence of attractive female protagonists that is the problem, but the lack of variety. If male protagonists can be old and grizzled, then so too...
