Just bring back Creepshow. He could even farm off the individual segments to younger directors and only do the wrap around, slap his name above the title and he'd be good to go.

Jimmy Kimmel is latino?

You mean pre-studio audience Daily Show, right? It took me a while to get into early Daily Show because of the weird "three guys laughing offscreen" vibe. That kind of thing worked on the Soup (or Talk Soup I guess back then) but it just seemed weird on TDS.

I think Razor Grab is right about My Name is Nobody. It's not Death Rides a Horse, though that's one of my favs and also spawned a reggae hit of the same name. Tarantino wholeheartedly ripped it off for Kill Bill.

I picked up a Shel Silverstein greatest hits album recently that makes no discrimination between the adult stuff and the kid stuff so it has Freakers Ball and I Got Stoned and Missed It alongside Homework Machine and A Light in the Attic. It really livens up shuffle on the old iPod.

For me it was when Eddie died at the end of "It". At the time it was the longest book I'd ever read and I was about the same age as the kids so spending that much time with the characters made it that much more real. I've never re-read it and I wonder if it would hit as hard today.

You guys have got it all wrong. Tom isn't a douchebag. He's a wannabe douchebag. Even though in these circles we all realize how awful that kind of person is, lots of people see that type of douchey-ness as the epitome of cool. Tom is just a nerdy, insecure guy trying to get a piece of that action. The fact that he

Aaaaand… scene. Great job everybody. Dunkin' Donut giftcards all around.

We don't make Electric Boogaloo jokes any more. Now it's Squeakquel jokes. Haven't you been paying attention?

The horror film Jack Frost came out before the Michael Keaton movie Jack Frost.

Richard Burton's sweat deserved an Oscar for Exorcist II.

I picked up Intensity one time at my parents' house and it was perfectly fine for what it was. Its workman-like mediocrity is pretty in line with the spirit of a lot of the books from this feature. Alexandre Aja also made a pretty great horror movie when he ripped it wholesale for Haute Tension.

Have an awesum summer and don't ever change. I'll never forget making fun of Sarah Jessica-Parker with you in Mr. Phipps's class.

SNL gets a lot of flack for depending on recurring characters but British sketch shows seem to do it even more. I liked Little Britain at first until I realized that the whole show was just the same characters making the same jokes over and over. I'll still give the British shows the advantage though because at

Australia is the only country in the world that would elect a "Kevin" to their highest office.

If I've learned nothing else from French horror movies, it's that rednecks are everywhere.

I was in a European country with no concept of what a grindhouse double feature was so they were released separately. Death Proof came out first (sans trailers even) and I hated it the first time. A month or so later when Planet Terror was released they paired them up for a few screenings so I went hoping to catch PT

1977. The first movie I remember seeing at the cinema was Staying Alive.

Spoiler alert!
