Well, he just uses them to store motorcycle parts and bales of old newspapers.

No one told him?
Leno already has those dates booked at all of those venues. He's got the Wang Theater tied up for like five years.

Sean Connery can be vaguely Asian.

I think point #11 in the culturedetritus posting is the strongest one—why was a movie wasted on such a lame premise and completely lame and uninteresting new characters and aliens, when they had a three decade multimedia franchise to exploit? It's like Nuclear Man in Superman IV. If only there were some source of

In light of the above comments, I have to retract my original post.

This review
probably represents the most time ever spent analyzing Kurt Russel's "onscreen persona."

I vote for Steve Buscemi.
Or maybe Steve Gutenberg.

@wallflower - I don't think the audience is supposed to wonder whether Jeff Bridges is actually dead, or even to think that Bridges thinks he is dead. A plane crash arbitrarily leaves him unscathed, while others (including the friend sitting next to him) die. This makes him feel untouchable, but lacking a fear of

Sounds like a bunch of premises from good movies collaged together to make crap
In addition to Fearless (I survived a plane crash and there's a therapist following me around for my own good!) and Sixth Sense (I'm actually dead!) already mentioned above, the 1998 Japanese film After Life is about people in a post-death

Disappointing. (Steven Hyden's review, not the book.)
The book can be justly criticized for, among other things, its condescending racial attitude. But a review that just dismisses On the Road as "boring" is itself disappointing and lazy. There is a lot of warmth and richness to Kerouac's observations of

Was there anything convincing on Full House? I found it completely convincing that Joey Gladstone's skill set (mainly Popeye imitations) couldn't sustain an independent adult life, leaving him no choice but to serve as a live-in babysitter for room and board. Episodes where Joey actually earned money for

Not even the lamest characters on the lamest show ever…
…would get excited over the Beach Boys singing "Kokomo" in 1988. "Full House", episode "Beach Boy Bingo". Okay, maybe the dad would, but not even those lame children wouldn't be buying that crap. Even at 11 years old I didn't find that convincing.

Heh.
Dancing Itos. That still cracks me up. Topical yet timeless.

I'll admit to having watched a lot of Golden Girls. A friend and I still occasionally break out with the theme song, which always ends with a lot of maudlin hugging and sobbing.

It's for the good of society. If not for gratuitous roles in science fiction and fantasy, there would be an epidemic of out-of-work dwarf actors knocking over convenience stores.

NBC never lets you get away cleanly; there's always a price. Just ask Calvert DeForest.

I want to say one word to Conan. Just one word.
Plastics.
