My favorite actual double bill, on a movie marquee, back in the early 8os:  Elephant Man and Ordinary People. 
But it kinda makes sense — what did they have in common?  People you thought of as funny (Mary Tyler Moore, Mel Brooks) doing things that weren't.

I'd like to sadden up Transformers.  Maybe a "tears in the rain" monologue and then some crushed doves (because come on, aren't Transformer hands way too big?).

Well, sure, if you're talking Toy Story 3.   Germans and their incinerators….

The baby chapter is great.  I kind of understand that starling with the soot in his eye at the end…

*I* know the books exist, and being as old as I am, I've been a non-fan of both Disney's Poppins movie and The Jungle Book movie…  And Disney's Alice in Wonderland, and Peter Pan…

Damn it!!  Now I have to find my fucking Poppins books!  Not sure I've ever typed that before, but you can bet I'm going to say it out loud when I get home.

I think the Game of Thrones comics would not be bad at all, if HBO had never done the show.  But they have, and though I appreciate the work the creators of the comics did… it just wasn't necessary.  I mean.  we HAVE our adaptation…

I agree on that string of Dreyfuss movies…. but I enjoyed Let It Ride quite a bit.

No, Ghost Rider was a ghost.   Oh, sorry, spoiler.

Goldthwait’s “clown movie” is the 1991 cult film Shakes The Clown.

Oh - I loved the "that's not a proper word" bit when the Shermans sing "responstable", and then the bit where they slide the sheet music for "Supercalifragilisticexpealidocius" under a folder…

Actually… this looks pretty good.  (Though I don't like the already heavy-handedness of the title, or the fact [is it a fact?] that Poppins was based on someone Travers knew.)  Thing is, PL Travers had valid points all the way through this process.  Anyone who's read the books knows that Poppins is more in line with…

Well,now, if we want chilling GRRM stories —- has anyone ever adapted The Monkey Treatment?

I understand the impulse to savor it, and I was going to do that, but… Season 4 just captivated me — what I liked, (among other things) in retrospect, was trying to picture HOW it was all done.  Looked to me like the easiest way to shoot it would have been all at once, with not one cast or crew member ever leaving the…

I'm a relative newcomer to AD, having only recently binged the holy hell out of the original and then the new season.  So maybe I'm talking out of my hat, or more accurately out of the hat of someone who never went through a time when there wasn't going to be a 4th season, and didn't even have to wait a week between…

We could see more of it if Bill Murray will play Chewbacca in the new Star Wars movies.  Internet campaign?

I saw Once Around and I remember really liking it — more of a short-story than novel feel (though I think it was an original screenplay).  Dreyfuss was in his best charming-but-obnoxious mode I thought.  It was like Duddy Kravitz had grown up, sort of.

Okay!  I referenced Play It Again Bob, and now DPA gives you the links!  There is no excuse to not watch it now - it's perfect.

The Road movies are so good!  And damnit, so were many (early) Bob Hope solo movies (My Favorite Brunette, The Lemon Drop Kid, Ghost Breakers, etc.).  Woody Allen's delivery (he admits this freely, it's no secret) is based on Hope, and one of my favorite things ever is SCTV's Play it Again Bob— Rick Moranis as Woody…

I liked Crazy Heart more than many people did [the novel, by Thomas Cobb, had an ending more like Payday (Rip Torn!) than I thought it needed; I was pleased the movie was a tiny bit more upbeat].
But I agreed with my wife, who, when Colin Farrell showed up, said, "what, they scoured the land and couldn't find an…
