I first encountered James Burke walking/talking across continents on “Connections,” his follow-up series.

I don’t see anyone talking about the film’s neatest trick which is that D-FENS, being an engineer, takes the shortest possible path to his ex-wife’s house and walks a straight line across L.A., and that straight line takes us through basically every level of socio-economic zone in the city. I’d be interested to hear…

I suppose it was too much to hope that Julian Beck would get a notice for his Reverend Kane in POLTERGEIST II. Forgettable film, unforgettable performance.

Love Columbo, but in the real world a lot of his arrests would get dismissed as entrapment.

People who think “Woke” is an insult must really like being asleep.

And if it was, the must-have tie-in toy would have been the robot cat.

The problem for me was that this adventure gave us a Buzz who never did any Space Rangering. He could have been anybody and the movie could have been titled INTERSTELLAR, BUT, Y’KNOW, FOR KIDS.

The thing is, there /was/ a series back in 2000, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, that /did/ serve as the in-universe basis for the Buzz toy line in Andy’s world. Bizarrely, it’s not currently available on D+.

No mention of Phil Tippett’s MAD GOD?

No link or source for this “recent interview”?

Also, thanks for not making this a slideshow.

Truth.

Do Eleanor and Chidi count as tragic since they were already dead before they met?

Oh godammit

Excellent article. Hopefully it will inspire readers to hunt down the titles mentioned and so much more beyond.

“Columbo is excellent when it’s using the elite’s own classism against them, as they undermine and underestimate the shabby lieutenant time and time again.”

“The conscious is freed up when we know that in the end, Columbo will always get the guilty party.”

There’s another one where a fancy new electric typewriter’s “white-out” ribbon gives away the killer’s secret messages.
