Darjeeling really rewards a second viewing. I didn't like it at first view, then rewatched it years later and was surprised at how much I liked it.

I feel a lot of the backlash was from people not liking aliens being in the Indiana Jones universe and forgetting that is was a prominent plot in many of the pulp serials it was based on in the first place.

The conformity skit.

Tried so so hard to watch it, but gave up on it after two tries where I had to turn it off half way. I was even ready for a bad bad but good visual feast that it had been sold to me as.

Referring to the "HQ" version, the only one on the leaks thread now. It doesn't even have the buzzing as far as I can tell, but is obviously missing frequencies.

Hey, thanks for the heads up. Obviously have it on pre-order, but couldn't resist a sneaky peek, even if the quality is pretty atrocious even in the re-edited rip. Strobelite is a highlight so far.

What? It was a number one single in the UK!

As does "One More Time"

Gone too Zune

I'll go next year when they finish their USA exhibit.

Never mind that the Apple Newton 2000 had pretty much perfect handwriting recognition. But by that time everyone had watched the Simpsons, so it had been cemented as a failure in the collective zeitgeist.

Literal spit take there. Shiraz went everywhere.

I could have sworn this was the second Luhrmann directed episode, right down to the anachronistic music choice for Toybox, but credits says no.

But then you realise that the United CEO is basically Sean Spicer in another human suit:

Under the dome: "Hold my beer".

April 16. I was unduly excited at first too. But soon!

I had no idea I had so much in common with Lauren Graham

"It was a fun ride while it lasted, but then you realize that most of the stuff that happened didn't really matter at all."

"we have a rule that if we show something mysterious on screen we know what it is".

Yup. Also jarred a lot with the pseudo realistic rendering of the opening titles in the first half.
