The formaldehyde isn't there by design, it's just part of the disinfectant formula they use for cleaning out returned bottles.

Pancakes -
The problem is that you're assuming people who analyse films understand them better than people who don't. This might be the case sometimes, but usually the "analysis" is simply a load of half-baked theories with no evidence besides discredited Freudian bullshit and unfounded accusations of prejudice.
There's

Singha is ok. Nothing wrong with that stuff. Beer Lao is a lot better though, of course.

Did I just say 'beef' flavour instead of 'beer' flavour? I think I did. Sorry.

Chang Beer
is a joke. Only alcoholics in Thailand drink it because it's made using the non-traditional route of adding beef flavour to industrial ethanol and water. On the plus side it's half the price of real beer, on the other hand it gives you the worst hangovers you've ever had.

Ratings are shit.
The TV companies and advertisers have some reasonable interest in them but regular people need to stop looking at them as some kind of gauge of quality or value.

In Britain we just call him an unfunny prick.

What a load of bullshit. The original was a good couple of times better.
Crimes of the remake included:
Annoying 'blockbuster'-style score
Turning the woman into a go-getting heroine type
Completely fudging the coming-out-of-the-TV sequence
Much less scary video, including an *actual ring*. Way to ruin the metaphor.

Ah yes, I think that's it! But it's nothing like I remembered. I think I was getting another animation mixed up with it. Still great though.

It was a new or new-ish film at the time, may have even been 98 or 2000. It was Japanese-styled but perhaps not actually Japanese. I'm fairly certain I didn't dream it, and it was absolutely one of the best animated shorts I've ever seen.

Team America lost it for me at the end. I'm positive that Trey & Parker absolutely believe in that"dicks fuck assholes" speech.

This reminds me of
a short (5-10 min) animation I saw on TV in about 1996. It started off with scenes of people from the west arriving in Japan in the 1700s (I think it was claymation), and everything took place on rotating stages. Suddenly, near the end, there was a sudden violent shift in gear. I've been trying to

Presumably. Eddie Argos will most certainly have heard that album.

Speaking for Britain here,
I'm sorry you had to see this. And I'm just sorry. So sorry.

Serge Gainsbourg deserves a 'gateway' of his own.

IACGMOOH is a failure over there?
And yet Survivor is still going, despite lacking even the most basic torture of F-list celebrities?
You people have got it all mixed up. Don't make us send you another Simon Cowell.

The third series is by far the best so far. You are an idiot.

1990s
An A-! And deserved I'd say. That track didn't do much for me on first listen, but third time round it might be my song of the year (so far).
Just one correction - Alex Kapranos was also The Yummy Fur, Jackie's previous band (and one of my all-time favourites, I should add).
