    No Right Answer: Best Board Game - Chess vs Monopoly

    Was this an April Fools video? This was an April Fools video. Right? It has to be. "We're in the midst of the 'golden age of board games' and Monopoly, the game considered responsible for the 'dark age of board games' is the best. Also we seem to have forgotten how to microphone...

    No Right Answer: Childhood vs Adulthood

    Childhood didn't win. Adulthood won for the child, by not letting it drink the Frigid Beer of Disqualification.

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

    Man. I can't help but notice the irony in all the points where you spoke of critics who declared Mallrats a failure simply because they didn't represent their own self-projections on Smith's career. I've never had any problems with him because I never saw him as a champion for a new era of...

    No Right Answer: Is Going to Space Worth It?

    I know it's been mentioned, but I cannot stress this enough: Technological advances developed for space travel very, very often have practical applications. Research for 'space arms' are used for prosthetics. Re-entry shielding is used for fireproofing. Extreme-environment suit technology is...

    No Right Answer: Is Game of Thrones Overrated?

    I like the series, but I'll admit that it's not the best thing since sliced bread. I've been reading the books, and there's a lot that they've actually improved upon with the series: Boy George is pretty good at writing intrigue and battles and whatnot, but some of the dialogue and interactions...

    Movie Defense Force: Alien 3

    The points are all true. And I liked Aliens 3--I caught it when it first came out on video (I was too young to watch it in theatres at the time), so the crap CGI never bothered me. I saw it again when I was older, and yeah the CGI was bad, but the movie was still good. But. The only way...

    No Right Answer: Best Action Hero Ever

    I've already won by grammatical default (you misspelt Statham somewhere in there, btw), so I'll just go over bits that merit discussion instead of beating the dead horse (with many twirly kicks and whatnot). Unfortuantely, many people have many different ways of classifying movies. What you...

    No Right Answer: Best Action Hero Ever

    If you're going to separate the two, then Jason Statham is a martial arts star, too. Martial arts flicks are action movies. Just because a flick doesn't use guns, doesn't mean it doesn't qualify as action. Hell, it's pretty standard these days for martial arts movies to include guns (like...

    No Right Answer: Best Action Hero Ever

    You should've stipulated "best action star alive", because Bruce Lee wins this argument, hands down for 3 reasons: 1: He kicked *real life* ass. He destroyed a man who was considered to be the best Kung-Fu practitioner in America in an extremely one-sided 3 minutes, and his reaction was...

    No Right Answer: Best Cutscenes Ever

    Eternal Darkness. When you reach the Guardian with Paul, after grinding through a few dungeons with him for a solid chunk of time. If you haven't played it, don't watch this link--buy the game and play through it, simply for its sheer awesomeness. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsCTSaUHpOQ...

    No Right Answer: Best Comic Book-Based Cartoon Ever

    I declare shenanigans. You guys gave an undeserved point to Ninja Turtles to avoid another tie (or because you're being paid off by Michael Bay--it's a conspiracy! You're in the pocket of Big Douche!)--you gave them a point for saving their franchise, and then gave them another point because...

    No Right Answer: Best Standup Comedian Ever

    Louis CK needs more love here. He's got great storytelling abilities like Cosby, but the perspective and intelligence of Carlin. Not better than either, but he has the strengths of both. Chris Rock's energy and passion is amazing, too. (He's still at it, isn't he?) Easy to overlook him...

    Daily Drop: The Finale

    Whenever I make it out west again, I volunteer to drop myself. Not face-first, mind you, but in pretty much every other orientation, just to get this series back.

    Daily Drop: Twinkies

    I thought skipping the "Crowbar is Ready" screen was hilarious in this one. It was like Alex was so filled with rage at the Yummies Snack Cakes that he couldn't wait for the screen to go. Or for a second drop. Or to warn the crew. It just evoked pictures of everyone else standing around...
