I know it's a bit late, but I kind of liked the Catwoman review. Doug's review style has definitely improved and the vignettes didn't seem too silly or out-of place. I do have a complaint about the "cat-related pun!" joke, as it was really telegraphed so far out, which makes meta-humour less funny.

I got pretty sick of the UPS Logistics song after a couple of videos. I wonder how many people think it was something UPS made up and That's Amore never existed?

And, for me at least, it was the same 3 US Navy ads over and over.

Could be worse, it could be the unrelenting sound of "That's logistics!"

GameChild is pretty good. Actually reaches that happy medium of making fun of things but not being insufferable.

Also, the opening theme. :allears:

I'm watching Bennett's 20 Worst Songs list and I loved him including that creepy dude from YouTube while talking about Bryan Adams. :allears:

I'm impressed at how professional Ashens and the Quest for the GameChild is. It's probably the most legitimate-looking original film I've seen on TGWTG.

Pretty much because Ashens wanted to make it as professional as possible on a $150,000 budget.

And yes, the GameChild exists.

Personally, I couldn't see Cloud Atlas being done by anyone other than the Wachowskis, in particular Lana. When she publicly came out last year, several people went into The Matrix to see if her transness led to some themes in the script. Even if you don't buy the trans allegory, both The Matrix and Cloud Atlas are both very into the psychology of identity.

For another guy angrily yelling about videogames, corporate greed, and sexism, Jim Sterling's Jimquisition series is pretty good too.

The downside is that it's on The Escapist, so uh, yeah.

The one thing I hate about the Escapist more than anything is making HTML5 video a premium. Try to avoid watching video on my laptop if I can help it. :argh:
