Son Of Dolemite movie! And he can help out Will Sasso while he's at it!

As one of the apparent few fans of Drag Me To Hell, THIS is the "Drag Me From Hell" I want to see.

There's a great Radiolab about a translated re-broadcast of the play in Ecuador in 1949 that didn't finish so nicely:

Whaaaat? I missed that. Time to rewatch.

"No, children, no. Your education is important. Roman numerals, etcetera. Whatever. I tried." [lights cigarette]

"I liked Pee-wee whipping the old movies."

I always like that bit in Stephen King's Danse Macabre where he mentions an alleged alternate ending to that movie where after the guy takes his eyes out he shouts in agony "Oh god! I can STILL SEE!" or something like that.

When it comes to jump scares, here's a hum-dinger of one in an otherwise fairly lously movie:

None of us should argue about which of the first four Die Hards we like best when something like A Good Day To Die Hard exists.

I'm kind of stupefied that we've reached a level where the default opinion on Iron Man 3 is that it wasn't very good.

And let's not forget "Electric Avenue":

I was so happy at the end when everyone came together to celebrate Halloween with him. Another show that proves you can build solid comedy around genuinely good people.

I continue to enjoy songs like "Teenage Dream" and "Last Friday Night." That stuff's right in her wheelhouse.

I think the problem with "Roar" is it's too big of a song for Katy Perry. It's meant for someone with some actual pipes. They laid out all this space on the track for someone to really put some stank on it and what we get is the musical equivalent of a cat meowing at the bottom of a drain pipe.

I hear he'll play a real Creep in this movie.

I was hurting I was laughing so hard at that.

That seems like a legitimate Harold and Kumar sequel, actually.

The montage of the dogs having a romantic day out is so great. Everyone having a steak to give them. Laughing at the wrinkly dog. Recreating the scene from Lady and the Tramp except they start growling over the spaghetti. Wonderful.

That bit is the funniest thing David Brenner's ever been a part of, after that TV Funhouse "Fun With Real Audio" bit where various bored talk show hosts are kicking him off their sets while he just keeps rambling on.

Groening, you knucklehead. That's why it's funny!
