Just off the top of my head: Dead Presidents. Reservoir Dogs. Josie and the Pussycats. The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou. Spider-Man: Into The Spider Verse.

That has got to be someone’s full time job to listen on the bug mic and make those notes and feed them back to him when appropriate. Bet the pay and bennies are awesome!

Rather than pit the poor and exploited in Brazil against the poor and exploited in Kansas, why don’t we stand in solidarity against a system where the average CEO is raking in $399-$1 earned by the average employee? They want us fighting over crumbs, why do you support that narrative?

Our company has had a 4x9 + half day Friday for years. It’s a good compromise. Productivity does diminish after a full day. I don’t think we’d do as well with a 4x10 or more and that Friday is great for tying up loose ends and catching up with admin work. We also have a soft “no meetings on Friday” rule that helps a…

Peacock’s customer service is completely nonexistent and subscribing has been really problematic. I’ve tried subscribing through Apple and I get charged but cannot log in or stream on any device—judging from Apple’s support knowledgebase I am not alone. Then I subscribed directly and keep getting messages that I have…

Randall Einhorn is one of the regular directors of AE episodes and he cut his teeth as cameraman and eventually director on The Office (was cameraman on the Christmas episode with The Teapot, for example.) He’s definitely channeling what he learned from Pam and Jim into Janine and Gregory.

My friends who were actually there reported it was more of an afternoon shoot, but the Dunkin’s where it was filmed is in a really high traffic area. It’s never really slow there. In fact, there are, I think, 2 other shops in less than a mile radius of the store where this was filmed. Medford is peak Dunkin’s country,…

Nuke Goldstein? For real? People invested with a dude named Nuke Goldstein and they are surprised that their money is gone? There are Bond villains more subtly named.

Regarding pushing work overseas, if VFX is unionized under IATSE wouldn’t there be solidarity between the other IATSE members (most of the behind the scenes employees) and VFX? Basically, if you don’t use IATSE VFX talent you don’t get IATSE on-set talent.

it feels a little bit like a wig, like it’s sitting up high on the crown of her head because her real hair is tucked under there. Eleven had a similar issue in the latest season of Stranger Things, got that Bert from Sesame Street thing going on.

They also exist to steer unsuspecting young women into adoption arrangements. There’s some serious ethical and legal issues with these outfits.

I haven’t thought of Judy Tenuta in YEARS, but I watched that youtube clip and I knew it by heart, every beat. I taught my campers the John Paul the Pope song when I was an (admittedly inappropriate) camp counselor. That woman was fucking funny and apparently, when the alzheimers takes me, that stand-up will be one of…

I’ve worked at McD’s, BK, Dunkins, and a number of other food service jobs, both chain and family owned while getting my education. If I have to choose a fast food place and I’m not a local, I’ll always go with McDonalds. Generally, the stores are better run, and the food safety rules are more closely adhered to. I…

I am 100% of that time period, and no. No one had that hair in the mid 80s in high school. Not even the dorkiest dork in my 1989 yearbook had hair like that. My brother, in 1977, when he was 4, and our mom sold tupperware and used a bowl to trim his bangs, had that hair. The Duffers are off by about a decade.

Calling it now, jellyfish will become shorthand for jealousy, envy, and FOMO. #jelly

Wide Stance Han may have been designed to straddle a Tauntaun. There was a PotF Han and Tauntaun set that was released in 1997 and they wouldn’t have tooled two sets of legs—one for the set and one for the solo Solo.

Judgement is confession of character.

Could your sister’s reaction be a form of trypophobia? If so, you might want to turn down the sibling torture a notch.

I was a super fan on Moonlighting when I was a teen. I taped the show on VCR (I’m old) and watched and rewatched episodes until I knew them by heart (I’m also a little on the spectrum.) Those scripts were THICK, like maybe not Gilmore Girls thick, but damned close. Lines on top of lines, perfectly timed, like His Girl…

I’m a big fan of pocket sand, easier to carry.
