Sam Neill is great, though. I love Grant's character - he's very similar to Brody in Jaws in a lot of ways, and yet blockbuster leading men are almost never those types of characters these days. They tend to be hyper-competent comic book heroes more in the Indiana Jones mould than just essentially decent, normal guys.

I know, right? My cousin used to have this life size bust of one of the Jurassic Park raptor's heads roaring; I forget why exactly. But it creeped me the FUCK out. They're just monstrous.

I think the kids are pretty great. Lex in particular is real good at acting scared. Must be difficult for a kid actor to appear really afraid in something like the kitchen scene, but they nail it. It's especially affecting when the lawyer abandons the kids' car and Lex is sobbing "he left us! He left us!"

Think Fury Road will have to satisfy us for the next few years at least, in that regard.

I saw it once but remember finding it fucking awesome. I rewatch certain sequences from time to time just cus I love the way it looks. 90% of why I like Akira is the animation and imagery, though, so I am thoroughly opposed to a live-action remake.

Bullseye is just a really charismatic and creepy assassin, he definitely isn't a great character. That's why Goggins would be great, cus he's the kind of guy who could make the part really memorable where in another actor's hands it could be really forgettable.

How much do you wanna bet, if this movie ever comes out, they shoehorn a Batman cameo into it? It's okay if he punches, right??

I really don't see how it could be anything smaller than a miniseries. It's basically a bunch of loosely connected short stories.

John Lithgow would own the role of Delirium.

I know, but it's such a good scene. Nightmarish and terrible to the point where it becomes funny, then just keeps going until it's disturbing again.

I think it's pretty awesome that you and your friends did a live-reading of Macbeth for your own amusement.

It's pretty much the definitive version for me. Something about the atmosphere and look of everything is perfectly unsettling. Also, if I had my way, Macbeth would die like Toshiro Mifune does at the end of Throne of Blood in every single adaptation.

I know, right? The setting was a very weird choice. I'm generally opposed to modernising Shakespeare anyway, but I feel Macbeth in particular inevitably suffers from it. It just doesn't translate as well as some of the other stories. I feel like it has to be Scotland, and has to be medieval.

The real Magneto played him too. Didnt really like the Stewart production, but McKellan was perfect.

That ride looks awesome. The drop with the T-Rex mouth looming over you. I'd love to visit Universal Studios one day.

His Lincoln voice was amazing. Sons of Mars is still my favourite episode.

Caught the beginning of That's My Boy on TV one dreary night… I seriously can't believe this guy made a comedy movie that opens with child grooming and repeated statutory rape. That was when my last shred of respect for Sandler died. Hope never to see any of his work again.

He seems basically fine, and it's only been a year! Hope he recovers fully soon.

It is indeed classic, but it relies so damn much on his inimitable delivery. The dolphin one you can just about pull off yourself, and you can change up some of the details and it won't matter so much. I'd like to also show some love to the "Andy Richter the Swedish-German" joke.

Why's he an asshole? I want to like him because Larry David likes him.
