Actually, I do find arrows more interesting than guns. But I find most things more interesting than guns. They're just so ubiquitous that I barely feel like raging against that machine.

[number8]

Yeah, well, you can't shoot five people in five different directions at once with a gun!



Also, trick arrows are the shit.

Fake Cat Arrow is the best one.

Fake Cat Arrow is the best one.

Okay... I concede the awesomeness of Fake Cat Arrow.

[Acapelli]

edit: 8 got it

[number8]

Oh boy, what do I get?!

[Irish]

[number8]

The reporting of that irks me. People are saying she's only casting him because of the "too white" criticism. ಠ_ಠ

[[ETM]]

There's also L'Archer Blanc:

In case you're wondering what Matthew Fox has done with himself since LOST ended.

[DavidSeven]

Someone told Foxy he was doing all this for a Rob Cohen move, right?

Because, holy crap.

[amberlita]

Gross! That's seriously him? What is that?

[Henry Gale]

Because, holy crap.

Ahem, a Rob Cohen movie starring TYLER PERRY, that is. So don't you right this off just yet!

[EyesWideOpen]

Decent episode of DTtBiA23. For once, the funniest part wasn't JVDB... although he was funny. The ladies did pretty well at center stage, particularly the scene where Chloe catches June in the tub.

June has some really good facial expressions. Ever time she was ogling the Latte guys abs I busted out lauging.

So I had a dream last night that I won archery competitions in highschool. I blame this thread.

[Watashi]

I talked to Bear McCreary today.

You jelly, ETM?

Any good arguments against this?

The pilot for TRON: Uprising is surprisingly fantastic. Much cooler than the movie.

You mean against casting Glover solely because he's black? Well, he's a talented up-and-coming comedian who runs in the same type of hipsterish crowd, especially outside of his Community persona. Considering the show's taste in guest stars so far like Mike Birbiglia and Jorma Taccone, it's not really out of the norm to get him. I would probably be weirded out if she got, say, Kevin Hart or Godfrey.

But what I meant is that it's frustrating to see Dunham being criticized by the media for her characters being white, and then when she casts a black guest star, they criticize her for the opposite.

I'm kinda bummed out that Mara isn't watching Girls.

I tried. Not my bailiwick. You all go enjoy it, though.

I know, which is why it bums me out. If you haven't tried it, I wouldn't be bummed out. I would be pestering you snidely. Remember your pre-Wire days?

I liked The Wire! A lot! Some of it was disturbing and hard to get through, but I'm glad I watched it.

[Mara]

Hey. Slings & Arrows isn't on Netflix streaming anymore. I'm annoyed by that.

[Kurosawa Fan]

Neither is Coupling, which annoyed Val and I the other night for no good reason whatsoever.
