there's quite a few youtube clips that prove the Runaways were a good band, or atleast an entertaining live act. They certainly rocked harder than most bands of that era. Joan Jett had rockstar stage presence from the get-go, and Lita Ford was actually a pretty good guitarist back then (before she left the band and…

i'm a Woody Allen fan and i also like Drew Barrymore, but i couldn't make it 20 minutes through Everyone Says I Love You . not good.

i say lose the Jason Bourne character altogether and have the next one be all about Julia Stiles' character.

huh? i believe "New Police Story" is actually a boring Hong Kong action flick from about 5 years back, starring Jackie Chan in a completely humorless phoned-in performance. I'm not sure why it was even called Police Story , the storyline and dark tone of the movie has nothing in common with Jackie's good Police…

what i most remember about the show was the questions where he named a famous TV personality from the past and asked the contestants if that person was dead or alive. those were trickier questions than you might think. Must've been embarrassing for the still-living celebrities when the all the contestants think you…

1:2 chance Leslie Nielsen will be part of the 2010 Oscars, in the "remembering the stars we lost in the past year" segment.

Strip Mall was the single funniest show (with a plot) ever of all time, except for maybe Police Squad. it did make it through 2 seasons but ended with an unresolved cliffhanger (Julie Brown falling out of a plane with no parachute). i've always wanted to know how the writers were planning to save Julie if the show had…

it wasn't playing anywhere around me or i would have seen it for sure.
the preview was awesome but it seemed to be aimed at a fairly narrow audience - older black hipsters nostalgic for 70's camp.

seen them all a bunch of times by now, and sorry, Oceans 12 is still my favorite of the three.

Mr. Ed had some redeeming values. the actress who played the wife was kind of hot. Maybe not quite as hot as other TV babes of the B/W era such as Mary Tyler Moore on The Dick Van Dyke Show, or Dawn Wells on Gilligun's Island, but i'd still tap that.

firsties only count if you are a registered user.

Laurel and Hardy used this technique to great effect. Hardy frequently stared into the camera lens when ever he thought Laurel was doing something really idiotic, as if he was trying to get some sympathy from the audience. but then the joke would usually be on him because his character was really just as dumb as…

'Hell's Angels' from 1930 still has the greatest zeppelin scene in any movie ever.
'Madam Satan' is another good example from the same period. that one featured a costume party inside a docked zeppelin that came loose from its moorings.

'Three on a Match' also stars Ann Dvorak, another vastly underappreciated actress from that era. i'll watch anything with her in it. she really should have won a bunch of Oscars. she was that good.

early-1930's Warner Bros B-movie actresses
one of my micro genres is WB/Vitaphone movies made roughly between 1931-1935 and especially those featuring a young Joan Blondell and/or Glenda Farrell. They were both contract players at WB then, and between them, they were in well over 100 movies during this brief period…

umm did any of you actually SEE Extract, (besides the one person who said he hated it? Well i did see it and totally loved it. i'd even say it is possibly my favorite movie of the year so far. i don't understand how anyone could NOT like this movie, honestly.

and that hot girl is Mila Kunis. Holy Hell is she HOT in this movie! why does she only barely get a mention in the podcast? she was the biggest reason i enjoyed the movie so much and plan to see it again. The best thing is nearly every scene in the movie has her in sexy boob-revealing shirts, as if she wasn't hot…

according to Wikipedia which is never wrong, the Peterson sisters of The Bangles are both straight/ married. so that leaves bassist Micki / Michael Steele, who i can't find much info about, except that it just so happens she was briefly in Joan Jett's first band The Runaways prior to joining The Bangles, so there you…

you want Joan Jett to judge a SINGING competition? Have you heard Joan sing? she has a great voice for rockn'roll, but at the same time she doesn't seem like the kind of singer who would even make it past the tryout stage of AI, and wouldn't want to anyway.

didn't enjoy Kung Fu Hustle. not hilarious or brilliant. but i'm not Chinese, so what do i know.
I did enjoy Idiocracy. seen it many many times and it always makes me laugh, though i usually don't bother sitting through it all the way to the end.
