Lassiter LOVES cars. That's probably why "Cars" is getting so much love.

Pixar has an amazing record.
I'm a little skeptical about Cars 2 as the first is probably the weakest film they've made, and Monster's Inc 2 is unnecessary too. They're getting bogged down in sequels, I'd prefer they stick to original stories (Toy Story excluded)

Adam's role was expanded when Lindsay Crouse had to be written out due to other commitments. Maggie Walsh would have probably been the main villain, and she had potential.
As for what makes a great villain, there's been a lot of great points made. The connection the character shares with the protagonist is important. The impact they have on the hero's life with be the legacy they leave behind. A relatable villain is important too. Even if they're irrideemably evil, understanding why they are that way makes them far more powerful. They need to be able to undermine the hero in some way obviously, be that physical strength or intelligence or emotional manipulation etc etc.
Another thing is how the villains are actually used. The First isn't exactly a bad villain on paper, but being benched for several episodes in a row takes all of the immediacy and threat out of it.

No chance. I'm not loving the idea of anything related to Season 8, especially Buffy-accessory Angel

It's a kind of subversive take on X-Men. The story follows a group of teenagers doing community service when there's an odd storm and they develop powers. They aren't exactly the type to don the cape and mask. I think it's brutally funny, quite offensive and oddly touching.

Being too serious does make the show dip into cheese, but it mostly walked the line well. The end of Season 5 was brilliant. Season 6 and 7 just weren't as well written, starting with some big flaws during conception which followed through all the way on to the screen.

Urgh. Not sure why there's a need for a Sleazy Fantasy line of Buffy statues. The likenesses aren't there either.

I'm meant to be going out this Saturday as well, generally I get ready with a few drinks, which will make the show better as it goes. I'm expecting Katie will reveal her true self. I'm expecting the judges won't know what to say to Wagner. I'm expecting Matt Cradle to give 110%. I'm expecting Rebecca to have more confidence this week. You forgot to add: Louis will find at least one of them to be exactly what this competition needs. and Simon will find a very subtle way to say Wand Erection are awesome and hard working and dreamy etc etc

I liked ABS the most. Not Chen or Jeanty.

^ It's better than the first verse but there's nothing special there either. Em doesn't just rhyme "Off" several times, it's multi-syllable rhyming. Ironically, while Em rhymes "peel off" with "wheel off", Nicki is actually rhyming the same words twice above: like the "took the spot"s, and whatever the hell the Manning Eli bit is.
But different strokes and all that.

@henzinnit : I never heard the original before. Sounds pretty whack to me, the audio on the hook seems so off I wonder how legit it is. Either way, I think the final version is a big improvement. Well it's definitely legit because it's clearly Nicki and Eminem doing the hooks. It's not mastered though cause it's a leak so it's not fine-tuned like the album version. I prefer it myself, I think the hook fits better and they both just get down to business with less of the audio fiddling.

But I still like Roman's Revenge because its just so out there and they both really go in on it. At first I was like "rah rah like a dungeon dragon"...what the heck is that? That must have been a late replacement. There's another version of the song with another hook (which fits better imo): www.youtube.com/watch?v=KXz0QvljYiwShe's terrible. Can't rap. I enjoyed her song with Eminem though, because he embarassed her. Romans revenge? Really? I thought she killed him in that song. His sections seem to drag so much for me whereas I find hers just well, awesome. Fo serious? Her verses are garbage: "Hang it up, flat screen" ... "Force-trauma, blunt" Very weak weak rhyming and punchlines. Eminem was mean, even though he's spit better this year: "keep acting as if you have the same passion I have yeah right, still hungry, my ass You ass-dicks had gastric bypass" "life’s hard, I swear to God life is a dumb blonde white broad with fake tits and a bad dye job who just spit in my f-cking face and called me a f-cking tightwad so finally I broke down and bought her an iPod and caught her stealing my music so I tied her arms and legs to the bed set up the camera and pissed twice on her look, two pees and a tripod!"

Green Lantern looks lame. I'm disappointed that Reynolds doing it may risk the chances of a Deadpool film.
Loving the title for "The Wolverine" and the news that it will stand apart from the last film. The further away from that turd, the better.
Rumour has it that the villain in Bats 3 will be Dr. Strange. Not a bad idea.

Lets be real here though. A real Buffy movie isn't going to happen. It's not like this shitty reboot is going to affect chances or getting anything better.
