And there was a really angry green man, [[Film/TheIncredibleHulk2008 Hulk]]? [...] Now, tell me again about your [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar purple alien]] that loves ''stones'', 'cause I'll tell you what, man. Aliens, they do not love stones. No, they do not love stones.

17->''A thing I never know, when I'm starting out to tell a story about a chap I've told a story about before, is how much explanation to bung in at the outside. It's a problem you’ve got to look at from every angle. I mean to say, in the present case, if I take it for granted that my public knows all about Gussie Fink-Nottle and just breeze ahead, those publicans who weren't hanging on my lips the first time are apt to be fogged. Whereas if before kicking off I give about eight volumes of the man's life and history, other bimbos who were so hanging will stifle yawns and murmur 'Old stuff. Get on with it.' I suppose the only thing to do is to put the salient facets as briefly as possible in the possession of the first gang, waving an apologetic hand at the second gang the while, to indicate that they had better let their attention wander for a minute or two and that I will be with them shortly.''

33'''Buffy:''' But he wouldn't hurt anyone anymore because he has a soul now.\
34'''Giles:''' Unless the First triggers him again.\
35'''Robin:''' Triggers the chip?\
36'''Buffy:''' No, the trigger's [[TriggerPhrase a post-hypnotic thing]]. The First put it in his head. It was... It made him... He was killing again.\
37'''Robin:''' So, he has a trigger, a soul, ''and'' a chip?\
38'''Giles:''' ''[scoffs]'' Not anymore.\

59->In case you haven't noticed, we've updated our official social media handles and made things much simpler. We're now [=@MPGISofficial=] across all social media platforms.
60->Why you might ask? Well, while it was a lot of fun giving each character their own social media handle, it was actually pretty confusing for new fans to be able to find us. So we felt that making this change would allow us to grow more and make it easier for us to welcome new fans.

63->''"I get the feeling Sonic is doing the ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' thing. That's where you spend years cluttering your game universe with characters and backstory, until it becomes to new players about as penetrable as a stone slab that doesn't believe in sex before marriage."''

66->''"Something in [[VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance the previous games]] has reduced Sora’s power, so he needs to set out into the world to build it back up. Great, reset button! That’s all the acknowledgment of the previous games that we needed, ''Kingdom Hearts III''. Let’s spend the next 20 hours referencing Disney movies and wallowing in the delicious warmth of our filled nappies! Sadly, ‘twas not to be, and things soon began to fall apart. Who are all these other characters? Why is Mickey Mouse knocking about a black desert with the WesternAnimation/MuppetBabies version of [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Sephiroth]]? Who are all the dudes in black coats and why don’t any of them know how zip fasteners work? Sora’s motive keeps changing. Sometimes we’re getting his lost power back, sometimes we’re looking for three missing warriors, sometimes we’re looking for Roxas, who is in Sora’s heart, which he already knew, so why the fuck is he looking, or we’re just generally opposing the main bad guys, who are three versions of the same dude, and none of them could figure out how zips work either."''

80->''While I admire all hell out of the show, it’s surely this complexity that hurt it in the long run. It simply was never as accessible (hence, never as successful) as [[Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries TOS]] or [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration TNG]] or even ''[[Series/StarTrekVoyager Voyager]]''. Heck, I even have to admit that ''[[Series/StarTrekEnterprise Enterprise]]'' is a lot more accessible to the casual viewer than ''Deep Space Nine.

83->'''Michael:''' I also think we should probably do a good job of explaining what the hell we're doing, which we really didn't do. We just kinda said "Crimmies" and then that's it.\
84'''Gavin:''' That was so bad!\
85'''Michael:''' I'm just saying, someone might go "What the hell is 'Crimmies'?"\
