Well, your description of Frank is certainly bang on. But Winchester was intelligent and occasionally compassionate, and his Beacon Hill manners were as exaggerated as Frank's gooberish Republicanism. I can't say I really hated CWIII at all actually, with or without enjoyment. He was just a toffee nose.

I guess Frank Burns. Why wasn't he the only answer from everyone in this article? It's all a bunch of current-day TV bullshit. All the great shows are long gone, like M*A*S*H and Emergency! and The White Shadow.

Omen III, In the Mouth of Madness, Event Horizon. You hit all the most important bases, Will, and thanks for doing so.

I can't believe one of "Spielberg's Friends" is Joe Spinell in a Jaws shirt. Somebody confirm this for me please, because I'm not sure I really saw that. I'd have expected his pals to be, I don't know, Lucas and Milius.

I don't think the A.V. Club has ever made any special claims to high moral rectitude. This is to their credit, and so is the rather harmless joke in the article.

I must point out that the lawnmower move was used in the great Night of the Creeps, though not to the same outrageous degree as in Dead Alive. Still, it came first.

Boring, anticlimactic story, bro: I saw this movie at a midnight screening at the Bloor Theater as part of the Toronto Film Festival. Full house, total enthusiasm, Jackson there. I chatted with him after the screening and got his autograph, one of only two or three I've ever asked for in my life. The autograph is on a…

You must commune with the Seedpeople if you wish to contact Charles Band.

You mean VELO'NEAL'D.

I would be prepared to believe that all these guys have really bad asses by any objective standard.

Well, I think it just comes down to the 1960s one, maybe some cheapjack BBC adaptation and a recent Asylum release. I'd stick with the 60s version.

Everyone likes to write monster movies. Everyone .

"That's Not My Toothpick, Baby (I'm Just Glad To See You)"

I'm more a Nesmith guy. Seen Timerider: The Adventures of Lyle Swann? He produced that.

"Adam Herz" being an anagram of "Paul and Chris Weitz," I think they wrote it pseudonymously.

I know what you mean about mixing people up like that and then feeling uncertain about what to do next.

For that comment, Lobsters, Maria Conchita Alonzo will pau on your head within a fortnight.

At least in Blues Brothers 2000, the former co-star was actually dead instead of just Hollywood dead. But I haven't seen BB2K, so maybe the corpse of Belushi strapped to an upright dolly with a fedora stapled to his head would have been better after all.

There are some things man was apparently not meant to know.
