Where did Deep Throat premiere - The Egyptian or Grauman's?

What red carpet was Linda Lovelace walking in 1973?

Starring Tom Hardy as a Nautilus-buffed Tom Joad.

Ford's film was perfect. Spielberg's film won't be.

If I live to be 1,000 I won't see this movie but I like that Steve Coogan is in it.

The "King of Comedy" is awarded a B for his coronation?

A 12oz dose of magnesium citrate will work to get that good shit out of him. Milk of Magnesia might also help.

I'd cast a vote for Jack Benny as the greatest comedian of all-time.  The television shows are generally very good and at times they are fantastic but more than almost any comedian I can think of, Benny's comedy is helped by the knowledge the audience has of Benny's persona and history.

He did come up with the idea and co-wrote Envy but didn't get (or take or even want) a writing credit on the film.  That's why he is listed as an executive producer.

The music that appears in the trailer is rarely the same as what appears in the movie.

"Well, you made a long journey from Milan to Minsk, Rochelle, Rochelle."

I love to watch people pat themselves on the back for the perceived acumen they show in watching a certain television program.

And every lame buddy cop movie ever made.

Tragedy + Time = Comedy

So were Feig's influences: Keaton, Chaplin and the Marx Bros. apparent in the film?  Sounds like he leaned very heavily on one of his other inspirations, Lethal Weapon II.

It will be terrible.

Other than the classic comedies - and those are straight down the middle as well - his favorite comedy list is pretty uninspired.

Except in The Philadelphia Story it wasn't very tactful for Cary Grant to push/punch Katherine Hepburn to the ground at the beginning when she was throwing him out of the house.  Funny, but not tactful.

But the bastards changed the ending!

Its after reading re-caps like this that I realize how much I miss Rabin.
