I hope your wallet's big - there are more and more of us around. I keep turning around when mothers are telling their child-aged Finns to not touch things.

My brother and I were obsessed with that pilot for the longest time. I'm just glad the series is only on the up and up. Before this show my pop-culture double basically had to be Huckleberry or Winona Ryder in How to Make an American Quilt. What services Ward has done for Finns with that name change, he does not know.

Porno's such a madcap story I think that the tone of the movie would have to be really different. I think Edgar Wright could make something original and punchy out of it thus evading too much direct comparison.

In Japan you seem to get consistently told by people you look like a celebrity you don't look like at all. Sometimes my brother and I would use our celebrity pseudonyms with each other, so we'd be Tom Cruise and Orlando Bloom. Back in the west I get Ryan Adams so you can see how off base it is.

Not strictly a date, but I was staying with a family I didn't know and they wanted to watch a movie. I suggested The Woodsman having heard it was good. That was an awkward couple of hours with a family of five I didn't know at all.

I never really got to the bottom of that controversy. My friends were all up in arms about how it made South Korea look like a servant to countries like the US and the UK and so I was expecting some kind of horrific injustice to the Korean people. All it ended up being was a subpar campy Bond film that made everyone…

I think this is supposed to start a franchise. That way they can follow it up with 
Alfred Hitchcock And The Making Of The Birds, and eventually Alfred Hitchcock And The Deathly Hallows - Part 2.

I grew up in Auckland and ended up with an almost transatlantic accent, and I'm only betrayed by a couple of words here and there. Mostly Nzers refuse to believe I could be from there and it's only been picked correctly while living overseas three or four times. Funnily enough, a lot of my friends have similar…

I had this thought too recently. I was listening to a podcast and it mentioned the Deathstar and it took me about two hours to even remember what it was - I kept recalling some comic book character. When I realised what it was I was tickled pink, and realised I was over it. Then I clicked on this link.

Calvin looks an awful lot like Ryan Gosling in that picture.

I don't know if it's freely available but I was lucky enough to be working on an unfinished Fellini movie a few years ago called 'Journey to Tulum' and as part of what I guess equates to the style guide I was given an illustrated comic/ storyboard version of the Fellini script by Manara - it's gorgeous.

I think you meant to reply to the other guy.

How does it feel to write an obituary for an O'Neal? Must have been kind of weird, but good job.

Does the conspiracy involves Christmas and your parents? I bet the annual Easter egg hunt's a blast chez Nygma.

I'm also watching these for the first time as they're reviewed, but I agree with the others. I feel like I'm not in the right to expect Spoiler Warnings. With TV Club Classic I'm not really looking for a play-by-play, but more of a history of the show and how it fits into the general history of pop culture. I'm…

I liked it more than Return of the Jedi, which is a decent film ruined by some bad ideas (Ewoks, a second Death Star? Really? Even 12 year old me saw that as flogging a dead horse). Revenge of the Sith at least seems to make an effort to redeem the enormous missteps (not that it doesn't make a couple of its own) of…

You're reading it wrong.

As in the Dreamcast VMU? The Dreamcast controller is one of my favourite control pads for feel, it just eeded an extra two buttons on the face. The Wii U pad/ screen does look kind of unwieldy though.

That's funny you should mention that. Scott Pilgrim lined up with Where the Wild Things Are and Inception in my mind as like minded film. But Kung Fu Hustle has always been my expected double bill with Scott Pilgrim. The only film I can think of that fits in the same sort of category that hasn't been mentioned (to my…

Since I can no longer reply in the first thread, here's as good a place as any: I wish we could have had a younger Topher Grace as Scott Pilgrim. It would have been perfect.
