No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

The salt flats thing mystified me, as it was implied that was the Pacific Ocean. I can accept nuclear war causing the fall of civilization, but as far as I know there's not a way to evaporate the oceans off the planet without killing off everything living on it.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I puzzled over the waterfall, and then realized they were in a desert, and the water had to come from somewhere, so I decided that water came out over the aquifer it came from and the "wasted" water filtered back through the sand. Still some loss to evaporation but better than my initial impression.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm finally watching The LEGO Movie, and I think it is just not my thing because I'm really not liking it at all.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Everything is not awesome?
