@group therapy: As soon as I saw Alex, I was hoping her mother would at least be mentioned, if not pop up for a minute or two. It seemed strange to me that she was in no way referenced.

Yeah, they were trying to wait 'til midnight toward the beginning of the episode for insurance reasons; but as Pam's contractions moved closer together she became more and more anxious about her abilities to have (care for, etc.) the baby, prolonging the wait past when both she and Jim knew she should have. It was an…

@ Brandt: I thought the exact same thing during that scene.

Hell yes it does, Towelie, as does Tiny Toon Adventures, Histeria! and Freakazoid.

And Jenna Fischer! Slither is great.

Yay!
Corrigan's been one of my favorite character actors for a while now, Henry Fool being the role for which I first took notice of him after seeing a few episodes of Grounded for Life. I'm always glad to see his name pop up in relation to something because there's all the more chance the project won't suck.

Sir Ben in Sexy Beast, seconded.

Color vs. B&W
My computer's not letting me post a reply to Borington Q, but I don't doubt it will be in color, though black and white would be incredible. Then again, Darabont wanted to film The Mist in B&W initially, so maybe he'll push for it here.

LOVE Rush. Even in the two specifically prog-rock posts, no mention of Rush. For shame.

I have a soft spot for Little Nicky as well, despite disliking most of Sandler's comedies (though I'm a big fan of Punch Drunk Love). My enjoyment of it could be a nostalgia thing, but whenever I see anything Popeye's-chicken related I can't help but smile.

'Cause it should have been an A instead of a lousy A-, is that what you're getting at, Flashman?

Bill Haverchuck, I'd go so far as to say that the final season of Moral Orel is one of the saddest, and ultimately one of the most moving things that has ever been put to television.

Oryx and Crake would be on my top 10, no question.

Me too, Dumbledore, me too.

So, what can you do.

Pepe. Silvia.

Botched ending or no,
Fish Tank looks to be right up my alley. Only ones in this batch that I have no interest in are Hadewijch and Father Of My Children.

There are companies that exist solely for the cutting of trailers. IIRC, the director of the film rarely has a say in what the trailer will look like.

Same vein: "She's filin' her nails while they're draggin' the lake…"

I shake my fist regularly, without irony. Works well to express frustration.
