Catholicked seemed kind of indistinguishable to me, but I really dug those other two.

This, for me, is like the indie rock version of The Rock vs Stone Cold.

Yeah, I really enjoyed this as well. Take On Me is one of my favorite songs. This has inspired me to check out AC's new album.

I think Colin was back there, but I don't think there'd really be a purpose in Phil Selway playing.

also, they had trombones do the coolest part of Colin's playing in 15 Step anyway.

that was a really really exciting performance- Thom looked nuts, I loved it.

cocaine joke, guys? f'real?

I really enjoy that new U2 track.

also, that Justin/Al performance was really entertaining and well done. besides the flailing jokes from presenters, this looks like it might be a fun show.

On Videogum

also, note how "Esau" was pissed that people were coming to the island to 'corrupt' it. He's protective, the smoke monster is a security system, etc etc

maybe common sense, but hadn't really seen it noted here.

It makes sense (well LOST sense) that he was Locke, Christian, and Yemi- all their bodies were on the island, but "Esau" was also Kate's horse?

still bugging me: where is Walt going to come into all of this? What is Claire doing while "Esau"/Smokey is off doing other shit and not being Christian Shepherd?

and yeah, poor Locke, man. he really got the shit end of the stick- moreso than anyone else I can think of on the show. Maybe Naomi for dying a trillion times? Nah, Locke got thrown out a window by his dad, paralyzed, dumped, found a purpose, got shot, lost his purpose, found his purpose again, got off the island and lost his purpose.

God damn. Still, that last shot of "his" face in that fire. Some of the most affecting/chilling shit this show has been able to get at me with.

Can Charlie and Eko come back yet? Please? Pretty please?

If your best friend gets shot to death sitting in the same car as you by people who were most likely aiming for you, you're telling me you wouldn't take measures to protect yourself- or at least understand why someone would?

That makes T.I. "a fucking idiot?"

Are you kidding me? You can't be serious.

Yeah, Roger Ebert is the man. Just don't ever read his reviews -before- you see a movie.

This list is pretty ace. I love watching that Norm roast.

Liar is a very strong word. Kathy Griffin's D-List schtick is just that, a schtick. It's like a warped character of herself that she uses to mine humor from. It's her angle. That doesn't make her a liar, it makes her a comedian.

also, Andy Samberg has a big nose. Pointing that out does not make you anti-semitic. I really think that's very unfair to Mark Wahlberg. I think it would be fine if you questioned if there were anti-semitic undertones, but to say again and again that Mark Wahlberg definitely is anti-semitic is totally jumping the gun and is totally irresponsible.

Stop throwing these loaded words around and tagging people with them over shit that doesn't really warrant it.
