This NEVER happens in shows I love. I'm sitting here in shock. That ''Korra'' finale is one of the best-and most important-things I have ever seen. Oh my god, NOW I KNOW WHY THE INTERNET BROKE LAST YEAR. And why people have been shooing me out of my own panels at conventions. I need to lay down and cry some more. My god, thank you to every one of you who pestered me to catch up on ''Korra'', you have my gratitude."

* His reaction to the first two ''Star Trek'' movies. Typically people have one of two responses: either ''The Motion Picture'' is a brilliant cerebral experience and ''The Wrath of Khan'' is a throwaway action movie, or ''The Wrath of Khan'' is the best of all the movies and ''The Motion Picture'' is an unbearable bore. And then Mark (who went into both with absolutely no preconceptions, not even knowing the "odds bad, evens good" rule) defied expectations by finding both of them equally fantastic.
