Anyone who lived in the DC area in the eighties will remember Erol's Video.

Never listened to his show, but I remember the TV commercials for it. He just babbled gibberish over speeded-up footage of him jumping around dressed as a cop, soldier etc. Didn't see the appeal of it, myself.

I still have The Day After on Betamax.

Howard Stern??

As a high-school freshman in 1982 (I'm the same age as Paige from The Americans!), I didn't read the papers and mostly tuned out when the evening news was on. Didn't know bugger-all about Europe. So when a test question asked who the president of Poland was, the only name I could conjure out of half-remembered scraps…

In Matilda, Trunchbull medalled in javelin, shotput and hammer throw, can't remember if the film ever used the O-word.

see also "The Wrestler"

A Jesus movie is just never going to be interesting, because too many people will be offended at any hint of imagination or personality in the story. No writer is going to chance expanding on the gospels in any meaningful way.

There is a brief reference: Howard worked with satellites, and we see a letter to him from the Togruato (sp?) company.

When is "Halt and Catch Fire" Season 2 coming to Amazon Prime?

Ehh, that reminds me of something funny that happened back in nineteen-dickety-three! . . . .

I think the idea is that people will pick it up by mistake, because they're in a hurry/are elderly with poor eyesight/are just dimwitted.

It might have been, once - in the days before every theater had those fucking video ads everywhere!

Are we expecting any friendlies??

"O Canada".

"Although, it would be quite funny if Snoke's hologram was not to scale, and if he was actually like, six inches tall."

Commander Snape

Mark Hamill didn't have a single line of dialogue!
