Snyder works fast, he already has a trailer out.

The Woman In Red (1984 film with Gene Wilder) is indeed creepy and alarming. But I’d hate for anyone not to know about 1979's The Woman In Red, the early HBO staple of surprising violence and nudity in a ambitiously produced semi-historic mob drama.

It’s Rich Juzwiak’s fault I watched nearly all of that show before my brain slammed the brakes during Love Bus. His blog “fourfour” had entertaining posts about his cute cat Winston and recaps of VH1 shows. Eventually VH1 hired him, which led to great moments like Rich showing Bret a photo of Winston, but my mind is…

Despite many side plots, The Blues Brothers remains the unequaled telling of a 1974 Dodge Monaco’s heroic final journey. And probably the greatest count per scene of cars, trucks, and tanks it met along the way.

For extra happiness I recommend watching Jason Sudeikis and Kathryn Hahn interview each other. They’re old friends who worked together early in their careers so they go straight to the weird kid war stories.

Specialized subspecies: Trader Joe’s Sample Station coffee. Hopefully on its way back with vaccinations.

It’s hard to get a screen shot, but in the “everything you ever said” office with the cat, the guy’s retro orange monitor has a Solitaire game.

You’re not going to mention that Steve Buscemi’s character is Benny The Teen? Probably short for Benjamin The Fellow Teen.

Will their big budget blockbuster be a BAT-BOMB?
Will Bat-Fans care that Bat-Man is also Mr. Mom?
Tune in tomorrow, to learn the rest!

Agatha herself confirms this. Kathryn Hahn’s expressive face took less than two minutes to completely fall in love with Rachel Weisz.

I saw Perfect in the theaters in 1985 as a teenager. At the time it was sort of horrifying but just another marginal escalation of how horrifying the 80's were. The trailer for Physical looks like it could be an honest retelling of how that scene and culture began, with Perfect as its culmination five years later. Perf…

The trailer certainly drives home how nothing is new, ie. “eat clean.” And as a child of 70s-80s San Diego the setting and scene check out.

It would be interesting to see an AVClub Inventory of how and where Elvis Presley retains cultural relevance. The last truly great Elvis-related experience I recall was Bruce Campbell’s moving performance in Bubba Ho-Tep...

This was also released when there was a proto-Gamergate backlash against Kirsten Dunst, a widespread obligation to pretend she wasn’t a good actress. All because she dared to be cast in Spider-Man and not exactly match some fans’ deeply invested spank bank images of Mary Jane Watson.

Since you’re including semi-fictional non-resorts in the past with Pirates, it would be a shame to leave off Moana. Granted my experience was as the movie theater so you’d want the biggest screen and most immersive sound you can get. The entire film is Pacific islands and open seas are lushly brought to life,…

Marginally connected, but I only just learned that Hugh Jackman did these dancing commercials for Lipton. The ads themselves criminally used only a few seconds. But some decent person stitched together a bunch of uncut footage.

I was afraid Invincible would be redundant with The Boys but it really managed to stake out its own distinct flavor. You can tell the source material has been updated and streamlined for well paced storytelling, but I’m completely hooked by the voice performances and how the actors sell the friendships and families.…

The music was on the PA, probably a Spotify station. The young employees were just chatting across the store.

Not long ago I was in the fitting room at a vintage clothing shop, and got to hear the two young Gen Z staffers discuss the song on the PA, Paradise By The Dashboard Light.
