"I'm Moira Mactaggert, CIA agent!"

Right!?! I haven't heard any official announcement that Craig is gone. I hope he stays, but if he doesn't my vote is for Idris Elba.

Mr. Treehorn draws a lot of water in this town. You don't draw shit, Lebowski. Now we got a nice, quiet little beach community here, and I aim to keep it nice and quiet. So let me make something plain. I don't like you sucking around, bothering our citizens, Lebowski. I don't like your jerk-off name. I don't like your

Jimmy Pardo as "The Mole Man".

For some reason the Black Knight used to scare the hell out of me as a kid.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Admittedly the scene with the outraged DA is the film's weakest, but I read it more as authority (The DA) v. anti-authority (Callahan). Callahan does the same thing to the Mayor. I just don't read him as a fascist conservative.

1/2 the movie is, for the most part, just Scorpio & Callahan.

"You talkin' to me, baby?" - Haircut

Shoulda been Jimmy Pardo (w/PFT in the Charles Nelson Reilly seat).

A little slow to start and could use some more jokes, but "Elvis & Nixon" is a genuinely sweet weirdo movie about a bunch of sweet weirdo characters (all but) lost in early Seventies America. Michael Shannon & Kevin Spacey are terrific as the title characters and really accelerate the film's pace once they are

Also: BLACK & WHITE!?!?!

When you have the chance to hire Tilda Swinton to be in your movie you adjust accordingly.

I worked for BBV and I would say 99% of the customers hated (or didn't understand) letterboxing. Sample quote, "I want to use my whole TV screen!"

Goddamn that's a great song. Hear in the right mood and…BOOM! Here come the tears. The Knitters did a great cover of it.

"Okie From Muskogee" never fails to make me laugh/smile. It's a helluva tune and what a great opening:
"We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee, We don't take our trips on LSD…"

Didn't care much for the trailer, but the movie was damn good. A real delight.

Ninotchka!

"Miles to go before I sleep." Uh, oh, now I've done it!

I thought Luthor worked. Nice change from the previous (now stale) incarnations. Batman stops fighting because he realizes Superman is human and not an alien invader. The shared Mother's name is the key.
