  1. The thing with the Dark Knight is that it's a really good film adaptation of a really good comic book character. It's not a classic piece of cinema in comparison to *actual* films, but it's miles above even the best of other comic adaptations and it was given a different twist to some more fantastical takes. That, coupled with its vast improvement over the Schumacher films and the fact that people love Batman, is what really pushes it to the success it's had.

  2. On a completely unrelated note I had a quick chat with Fish at the NOAH show in Wolverhampton, really nice guy. (“Namedropper!” – Ed.)

    You realise you're only supposed to do that if you have an editor who edits the piece...?

  3. Bart: You're right, Dad. We don't need a babysitter.

     

    Homer: Wait a minute...

     

    (He takes a card out of his pocket. It reads "Always Do Opposite Of What Bart Says")

     

    Homer: You kids DO need a babysitter!

     

    Bart: Blast that infernal card!

     

    Bart: ...Don't give me the card.

     

    Homer: Here you g- NO!

  4. It makes a difference because I associate him with being the Human Torch, not Captain America.

     

    Surely Hollywood isn't that low on actors that could have filled the role without using an actor that has previously played a character from the Marvel universe. Doesn't make sense to me.

    Unless they went for the guy who they thought could best portray the role who also happened to be interested in the role, in which case it makes perfect sense. Did you also get confused when Deadpool was in the Green Lantern film?

  5. it would be ok if it could in anyway make money for anyone involved and adhere to the principles of pro wrestling, I hated that, nothing spells fake like a bunch of people shitting all over the hardwork of every past wrestler to ever lace up a set of boots.... and those 'Portal' douches can fuck off as well.

    Fuck off you boring cunt. You love your World of Sport and that's full of stupid shite that would never, ever, ever, ever happen. Principles of pro wrestling my arse.
  6. Marge: This town is a part of who you are! This is a Springfield Isotopes Cap... when you wear it, you're wearing Springfield! When you eat a fish from our river, you're eating Springfield! When you make lemonade from our trees, you're drinking Springfield!

     

    Bart: Mom, when you give that lecture, you're boring Springfield.

     

    -----------

     

    Bart: I'm never gonna find that tree. This whole raid was as useless as that yellow lemon-shaped rock over there... Wait a minute! There's a lemon behind that rock!

  7. from the episode where Bart falls for Rev. Lovejoy's daughter. Bart walks past Homer and Marge looking forlorn (and covered in glue)Marge-There's something different about BartHomer- New glasses?Marge- No, I meant emotionally"Homer- Probably misses his old glassesMarge- Maybe we could spend more time with Bart, but then I'd be afraid of smothering himHomer- Yeah, and then we'd get the chairMarge- Homer! That's not what I meantHomer- It was Marge, admit itThat exchange made me a fan ever since

    This was absolutely fantastic. Just hilarious. Homer is always far funnier as an accessory to a story, rather than the focus of it.
  8. Can't believe our own user didn't say this one:

     

    Bart: Y'know, I heard Skinner say the teachers will CRACK at any minute.

     

    (Message passed down to the front...)

     

    Teacher: Skinner says the teachers will crack at any minute purple monkey dishwasher.

     

    Mrs Krabappel: Well, we'll show him! Especially for that 'purple monkey dishwasher' remark!

  9. Can I just say, that I watched this weekend's episode of Doctor Who (probably only the 3rd time I've watched one since the reboot) and it was one of the most awful, cringeworthy pieces of shit I've ever seen? I loved Dr Who when I was a kid, I really did, but the new series are just SO low-rent, it's excruciating.

    You watched Doctor Who when you were a kid... and you think the NEW series is low rent?

     

    I'm calling bullshit on that. Go watch the old series and see people running down the same corridor away from a man in a tinfoil suit. I refuse to believe that you could suspend your disbelief for that but not the far sleeker new series.

     

    That said, whilst your reasons are illogical, your conclusion that this week's episode was fairly low rent isn't far off the mark. This was probably the cheapest-looking episode of Who we've seen since 2005, save for the one where they never left the space bus.
