Never been there, but you make it sound an awful lot like the outskirts of Los Angeles.

The 8th one would have been "Fast Eight Below".

Look, making a story without Paul Walker's character isn't hard. Brian's story was pretty much concluded with him marrying Mia Toretto and starting a family.

He'll finish if she fakes it.

Seems like the original name borne out of a pop culture craze is Jennifer. Lots of moms read/watched "Love Story" in the '70s and '80s.

And don't even THINK of returning to that store!

There is no second Idol. If Tyson uses it they'll plant another one. If he goes to Redemption Island and still has it on him, he could use it if he wins all the challenges and returns to the game (though whether they'll plant another one while he's there, I don't know).

I'm pretty sure "Stop Touching Me Elmo" is a reference to the Kevin Clash scandal.

I was so, SO sad that Steve Earle's character didn't live to see the Lucinda Williams concert he invited Annie to, because how cool would it have been to see those two on screen together?

It's stuff like this that explains why Spike Lee was on that rocket to the sun along with Rosie O'Donnell and Pauly Shore. Well, this and movies like "She Hate Me".

I was 12 when "Basic Instinct" opened in theaters, setting off a brief erotic-thriller trend in movie theaters. Of course, I was the perfect age to be curious about that movie, but my mom thought I was too young for it. When it came out on video, my dad covertly let me watch it, on the condition that I get rid of the

Say what you will about Hot Shots Part Deux/Loaded Weapon 1/Fatal Instinct/Robin Hood: Men in Tights; they run circles over the sub-Scary Movie dreck that passes for parody movies these days.
