No, beyond. We can't tell you, since it's unspeakable.

Man I wouldn't have cleaned it. Quick, to the pawn shop! Clearly, it is an artifact of great historical worth.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I'd say you've got till Wednesday. But you'll be killed by a Velociraptor named Steve, so at least you have that.
Steve's out with the velociraptor flu. John's filling in for 'im til Friday.

Hmm... It's actually a brilliant concept, playing out the consequences of one of those sappy childhood movies, but it looks like one of those things that's better in concept than in any actual execution. Eventually, the animated bear stops being funny because you're used to it, and then it's just... meh. It's hard to drag out a sense of novelty for 2 hours over a single idea.

Eh, don't knock it until you see it.


Probably won't see it myself, but just because it's not really my brand of humor at all.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Fair enough, that. I could easily be wrong after all. Not only was that a guess, it was also an opinion. So many ways for it to be wrong!

I pretty much agree with this except it doesn't really look like it's gonna explore those consequences much. Guessing from the trailer it looks like it's just gonna be one of those deadbeat best friend plots where the best friend just happens to be a stuffed bear. Which isn't surprising since MacFarlane isn't exactly know for his nuanced writing. I'll probably still see it anyway because that's just the kind of guy I am.
