    The Big Picture: #WalrusNo - Why Tusk Is A Bad "Bad" Horror Movie

    The Big Picture: The Fall of Kevin Smith, Part III

    Movie Defense Force: Dungeons & Dragons - Jeremy Irons Says NYANANANANA!

    No mention of the scene where Snails dies? I remember watching this movie at a convention and when that scene happened everyone gave it a standing ovation.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron Concept Art Gives First Look at Scarlet Witch

    It's Olsen. How is that entertainment family name not known by everyone at this point? The Olsen twins? Elizabeth is their sister.

    Jimquisition: The Adblock Episode

    Browsing through this thread and seeing how completely randomly warnings have been handed out for saying that someone has The Escapist blacklisted because of autoplay ads with sound while others receive no warnings makes me NOT want to join the discussion.
