Jessi Colter did a fun version of "Rainy Day Women #12 & 35" on her 2006 album, and it's a song I don't normally enjoy.
Also: "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall" by the Staple Singers.
"It Ain't Me Babe" by Nancy Sinatra, from her Boots album.

I feel like there are occasionally humdrum episodes of Drag Race, but there has never been a dull episode of Untucked.  For me, that is the real show.  The previous hour of Drag Race is just exposition.

I was so tickled to hear "Bitch, I am from CHICAAAGO!"  If ever there was a running joke across seasons, it is that.  During season two my roommate and I would yell it along with the Untucked intro. 

I have long thought the same thing!  And because it covers such a long period of time, they can interlace many of the short stories into the overarching one, such as the WWII stories set around Frenchman's Bend.

I saw "The Muppets" this weekend and it was quite good.  Nobody particularly laughed at the Fozzie fart joke, but it wasn't some egregious error.  I hope Frank Oz actually sees the movie and admits that he had overreacted.  Reading his comments made me afraid to see the film and if I hadn't lucked into a free…

I respect all the showing off they do in The Great Muppet Caper — especially Miss Piggy as Esther Williams, Miss Piggy tap dancing, Miss Piggy riding a motorcycle…

Wow, out of 79 reasonable discussions, I don't think anybody has actually seen the film "Sparkle" (a great movie to watch when you're sick in bed) or heard the soundtrack controversially sung by Aretha rather than the film's actresses, or is aware that En Vogue sang two of the film's songs on their massive "Funky…

Last time I was there I saw two Napoleon Dynamites and two Captain Jack Sparrows, stretching the definition of 'superheroes'.

Bean bag guns are about all the LAPD can be trusted with. They use them whenever there's a riot, like the May Day riot a few years ago. And there were commemorative t-shirts of the May Day riot soon afterwards depicting the cops in riot gear.

Ozu or Sirk
The movies listed in the comments so far are all very good entries and they all make me cry. For me personally, nothing gets the tears flowing like the end of an Ozu movie, like when Chishu Ryu peels the apple at the end of "Late Spring" or when he gives Setsuko Hara a watch at the end of "Tokyo Story"…

Be nice to old people! The generation that is in their 70s and 80s now was the generation that supported the great period of international art cinema from the 1950s through the 1970s. I used to manage an art movie theater and they are much more open to new experiences than most of the art school brats I encountered.…

First 20 minutes
I used to manage a theater for Landmark in Denver. The audience was generally hip baby boomers, ambulatory seniors, and a smattering of college kids. Not a bad bunch. We often showed challenging movies, we understood this, and generally if someone came out within the first 20 minutes of the actual…

Tarnished Angels
I was glad to see that listed. That was the first movie I thought of when I saw the Inventory topic, but was afraid it was too old or semi-obscure. The film expertly uses Mardi Gras alternately as a counterpoint or an underscore.

Last time I saw 'Umbrellas' I felt that festival scene was a reference to 'Children of Paradise' — good one!

Pretty much anything Madeline Kahn ever said
The lady could imbue any line with so much humor, pathos and world weariness.

Should have ended at Season 5. Deb should have caught Dexter and that would have been a perfect ending. I felt like they shot two endings, a series finale and a season finale. Showtime picked up the 6th season about two weeks before the finale, so they had to use the ending where Dexter gets away AGAIN! It would…

Yes! I'm going to Nashville next year and plan on exploring fried chicken and BBQ off the beaten track if there are any suggestions.

Everybody Loves Doris Roberts
I wish the Emmys would make a rule where, once an actor wins an Emmy for a role, they are no longer eligible to win an Emmy for that role again. Doris Roberts won 4 Emmys for "Everybody Loves Raymond" and was nominated an additional 3 times. John Larroquette won four consecutive Emmys…

Shoulda been better
I saw this in the movie theater when it came out and even had to pay an inflated price ($18, more than if it was a 3-D movie). I see a lot of Indian films and I do not believe this one is particularly great. The plot is crowded even for an Indian film, and I became disappointed when a development…

Hip Hop and R&B
Totally agree with you on the Belle & Sebastian EPs! And it's been a brief walk down memory lane reading others' comments — totally forgot about Roni Size! I see that a lot of people liked "Baduizm" but I think Badu's "Live" album later that year is a more stronger statement. In my memory 1997 was a…
