So it wasn't just me thinking that. It'd be a hell of an exit.

If that's what you see in the list of folks there, then yep. But it's also because of posters like you, people who sling 'SJW' as a pejorative, fly their Vivian James flags high and warble triumphant over the reduction of content. You make me feel so goddamn old. Yeah. And I know I can...

Whoa. I just read through comments to find MovieBob is gone. Wheeeelp. That about does it for me, folks. Loading Ready Run productions I Hit It With My Axe Extra Credits Shut Up & Sit Down Reel Physics Matt Lees Jimquisition The Big Picture Escape to the Movies I've got a morbid...

Vaguely startled that Vin Diesel's xXx didn't get mentioned even once in this review. Granted this is longer and more interesting than just saying, "It's been done," but I would've thought that'd have gotten mentioned. *shrug* Ah well.

*chuckle* Sheesh. Always startled that people feel so strongly about Bob having an opinion they don't agree with. News of this magnitude, though, I've got to say g'wan and gloat. I share MovieBob's opinion that the series is going to get better. While I liked a bit of the stuff in ASM...

*blink blink* Are you sure? Because my mind went immediately to Duke Nukem Forever, Daikatana and? I mean, sh!t, that old E.T. game didn't just stop at collosal failure, it took on positively mythic qualities of badness. Oh, and that Aliens: Colonial Marines fiasco? C'mon. I'm not going...

*blink blink* Uh. Can we get a 'BLAND TELEVISION. IS. WEEEEEIRD!!!' graphic for this?

Interesting premise but if ever there was a debate worth the title 'No Right Answer' it was this one. The only point I would've made in favor of sequels is that new IPs often have to spend so much time worldbuilding that they don't get a chance to explore or develop a narrative as much as the...

Based on the image of agent Carter I was half hoping it was a Carmen Sandiego reference.

The gold on these forums is worth the dross. And there's a lot of dross. But good stuff jumped out at me even relatively late in this discussion's life - stuff by these folks, condensed for space : Pretty much everything Piscian said, highlighting common sense stuff that gets overlooked ...

I like the links made between horror and comedy. The observation I've been intrigued by is short fiction horror relies on punch lines just like longer form jokes. Good horror also builds on itself like callbacks in a comedy routine. I'm curious if the 'rule of three' works in horror, too. I...

I'm all for Mr. Tennant, fan of The Doctor, etc etc? but that is the single weirdest picture of the man I've ever seen.

Elric? ?I kid, I kid. I kid because I love. Seriously, while I've missed the boat on this series the quality of work I've been hearing about on it has me tremendously excited to see how they handle Cyberpunk.

Um. File this under Nit, For Picking Of, Spelling. "Surprisingly Bearable" is correct and mostly in place, but I'm still seeing "Surprisingly Bareable" (front page, large display, text under small menu preview below large display, mouseover text on small menu preview)

Seconded. I'm not British but I think their newspapers generally consider 'objective journalism' an impossibility and so instead make clear their stances. So you get The Guardian with a right-wing editorial bias and The Economist slanting left? I am _loath_ to have something titled The...
