Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman. Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.

You mean the Mentzer Red Box?

Anne Hathaway in The Princess Diaries. James Spader as Alan Shore in Boston Legal. Sean Bean as Sharpe. Timothy Oliphaunt as Raylan Givens in Justified. Actually, almost every single person in Justified (including Walton Goggins).

And "I Love Rock'n'Roll".

Nice!

It's like machines can't even think for themselves nowadays. Back in my day robots were happy to steal any job from a human! I think it all began when we gave them a "sleep" mode. That's probably when they started to dream.

If AIs start to realise the futility of existence, we might have to start doing our own work again.

I've done extensive research into this, and I emphatically refute this. Too much sunshine while you're drinking sangria, however, that's a different matter.

They must have shoved the proctoscope up quite a bit further than usual...

The Black Forest isn't a forest. It's a mountain range.

Wasn't there already a meme with Miss Peggy as Eowyn? "But moi is not a man. Hiyaa!"

I remember at school, being told that peasants had to tithe 10% of their income to the local lord, and how the whole class was outraged. Now I look back and think, "I could stand to live with a 10% tax rate..."

"Ring-giver" is the term mostly used in Old English, if I remember rightly. Golden rings and armbands being a great way to keep your wealth secure on your person. But don't forget the feasting: that's why Hrothgar built Heorot, as a place to feast his people. The fact that Grendel interfered...

Yes, Minister had a perfect ending in that it became Yes, Prime Minister. Friends did quite well. Boston Legal was good, if slightly unsatisfactory.

Particularly the fade to the field of poppies, if I remember correctly. It wasn't until they watched the finished episode that they realised how powerful it was.

Blackadder: definitely. All the more amazing because, apparently, it was a spur of the moment we-have-to-come-up-with-an-ending thing. Due South ended pretty well. Burn Notice too, although it could have ended on season sooner.

Cool! I have the core book and Ancestral Vault, and mined both extensively when one of my campaigns found itself in Africa (leaving a trail of destruction in it wake).

Huzzah!
