The ironic thing is that I used to agree with Occupation more often than not, before he went nuts and got obsessed with me. :shrug:

Hell I've always said that. Sure there are posters that I more consistently agree with than others, but hardly anyone posts badly enough for me to give a poo poo. And almost literally nobody posts enough personal poo poo for me to think "I don't like that poster". It's like that Papa Joe Mama rant about how dumb it is to think that your taste in media reflects your personality.

It's getting really hard to keep track of which posters have bad opinions that I'm supposed to ignore!

I was joking, BSam is a cool guy. It's soapgish et al you wanna ignore. and who's that one guy who never shuts up complaining about the term "lazy writing"?

e: oh and anyone who watches giant bomb obsessively. I still think the people in IRC are just loving with me sometimes when they go on about it because they're all like mid-20s

you know what given my recent trend of jokes I thought were super obvious blowing up in my face I'm gonna add a disclaimer that this post is just poking fun. except for the soapgish bit

The Netflix How To Train Your Dragon show is actually really good. Watched it with my niece and it's almost just straight-up "as good as the movie".

Why would liking one episode and hating another of an anthology series make you stop watching altogether? Unless you really detested Fifteen Million Merits that much.

Original Law & Order had to put a disclaimer on the end of one of their older episodes because it was about AIDS. They basically had to state that the information in the episode was out of date and you had to judge it by its time or something like that.

I'm more excited for Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, which is something I never would have imagined I'd be typing. It's about as weird as saying "I can't believe Jon Hamm is starring in HBO's Ambush Bug series."

James Gunn really liked Ant-Man but he also said it was the best Marvel movie since the first Iron Man and "iron man is still the best marvel movie" is one of those opinons that confuses and mildly irritates me. Also Guardians is the only movie he ever did that isn't poo poo so

That said I thought Slither was pretty okay, but not much more than "pretty okay". Tromeo and Juliet is a punk rock retelling of Romeo and Juliet. It is very funny and good.
