Blonde's catchphrase:
"You like the Velvet Underground? Then you'll LOVE this."

I agree - great stuff.

Yeah, it's great! I mean, uh, I wouldn't know.

Drug Dealer
Like at least two of the staff and several commenters, my first job was at a pharmacy, delivering prescriptions to grabby, claw-fingered old ladies who might, if I was very lucky, snap ope their change purses and drop a quarter into my hand once I'd delivered their fix.

And you were right to do so.

I hope you at least told her, or got Billy to tell her, that she looked mahvelous.

Oh, and to answer your last question, GETTIN' IT ON!

You don't see the distinction between disliking someone for being a gun nut and disliking someone for simply changing their mind?

Uh, Emperor, I think Geddy Lee's dislike of Heston is for his latter-day deep-throating of the gun industry, not for the fact that he changed his mind about it.

I've never seen even one Happy Potter movie (?), and no Home Alone movies, nor Mrs. Doubtfire, nor Adventures in Babysitting, nor even Bicentennial Man. I have indeed seen THE GOONIES, but luckily it's a Richard Donner film. I've seen Gremlins and Young Sherlock Holmes, both of which Columbus wrote, but nothing that…

I guess he'd be a rumpled, boozy, foul-tongued duck like in the comic. Oh, and funny.

Correction, sir
That director is a Frenchman.

Cocote
I'm one of the cocote subscribers who went to see this in its original theatrical run. It somehow didn't seem unusual to me at the time that Fred Ward, of all people, should have been chosen to topline an attempt to create an American James Bond. I guess Chuck Norris was busy.

Tell that to Mr. Puv.

I once vowed the following:
That I would never see a Chris Columbus film. I just vowed it because I realized that I never had, and he seemed a perfectly reasonable director to ignore. I've had no trouble at all keeping that vow, and with this movie the streak continues.

There were some scenes in The Breakfast Club which could be described as jock vs. nerd.

And as Bruno is a very reasonable 83 minutes in length, you can probably get in another movie as well before the punching-robot movie ends.

Tell that to Mr. Puv.

Bright side:
This will clear the way for my theologico-cultural masterwork "Hacking For Christ: The Gospel According to Jason Voorhees."

A timid and irresolute attempt. Your firstie, not Roger & Me.
