Curses!

Inaccurate headline:"Ted Nugent is 'a black jew at a Nazi-Klan rally'"
More accurate headline:
"Ted Nugent is 'at a Nazi-Klan rally'"

Since this is Hannukkah, should that be schlomotion?

Crap.

I never liked the weird, arbitrary, old-white-people-driven ratings system either, but it seems like instead of moving toward more sensible ratings based on what's actually appropriate for kids, we're moving towards studio-dictated anarchy where illiterate parents take their 8-year-olds to see "The Hangover" with no…

The laughter in any Miyazaki movie:

"Apocalypse Dumpling Gang" = work of art

Howard directed A Beautiful Mind well. It was Goldsman who shat all over the movie with treacly nonsense, whether you take it as a Nash bio or not.

The 2001: A Space Odyssey-style head trip at the end of The Gunslinger is probably unfilmable. Now that Stanley Kubrick's dead.

I can't tell you more than 3 things that happened in Song of Susannah's twelve million pages. THAT was a bloated book. I'm in the minority, however, in quite enjoying Wolves of the Calla.

There's never a wrong time to remember what an absolutely insane cast the original The Stand miniseries had. Lieutenant Dan, Parker Lewis, Dauber / Mr. Erickson, Max Headroom, My Favorite Martian, TWO brat-packers, Ossie Davis AND Ruby Dee, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Kathy Bates, Ed Harris and Sam Raimi.

Billy Bragg is STILL more famous than Wilco, at least in my mind. I was always disappointed many of my fellow Americans only seem to know him as the Mermaid Avenue guy. He's got a  thirty-year catalog of lefty folk-punk awesome. (I remember seeing the LISTEN TO BILLY BRAGG stickers my first week living in London as a…

The only way I could see it working is in HBO miniseries format or something. A full hour devoted to each half-story, with the central one getting two hours. That would totally be doable.

I'm sure "Cloud Atlas" is safe in the hands of Tom Hanks, Halle Berry and the Wachowskis.

What's more, it sounds exactly like the premise of the Richard Bachman / Stephen King book "The Running Man" before it got made into the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.

I'd let Chris Brown beat me.

I am… now…

Anyone know where you can get that green shirt?
