' Sometimes I feel like Lestat making other vampires to play with…'

Uwe Boll is like the foul-mouthed, immature yin to Werner Herzog's measured, compassionate yang.

Actually, I recall The Coen Brothers talking about doing a film about an opera singer that would have starred Harve Presnell sometime after Fargo…or, almost 20 years ago.  This was around the time of To the White Sea, another Coen project that has yet to see fruition.

I was terrified of this concept as a child - and still a little nervous about it as an adult - and I can say with absolute certainty that the psychological analysis proffered ('Falling prey to it is really just falling prey to your own lack of self-confidence.') is spot on.  Where were you with that when I was 9, Sean

Is 'a “vintage, NYC downtown funky” journalist who’s also a single mother' code for Rosario Dawson?

Alright, lots of Happy Accidents love in this house!  If you think it's underrated, you may also enjoy the equally obscure Cherish.

'I’m so jealous of people who have crushes on people they go to school with, or work with. That’s such a blessing.'

Knightriders.

Yes, but some of us, called poor people, still have to work on Labor Day so that everyone else can have their fucking day off.  And take one guess if people are any cooler on Labor Day than any other day of the year, or if they're even ruder and more insufferable than normal?

Secretary Rock
I would love to read more about secretary rock. If not a limited, sporatically appearing series of articles centered on the genre, then at least a "Primer" or perhaps an "I Listened to This On Purpose" of Jessie James' Jessie James.

Speaking of Jim McBride…
Can we get a little Great Balls of Fire over here?

Is Happy Accidents a Cult Classic yet?
If not, can we get working on that?

Ew, gross, I just said "LOL."

LOL. That's good.

"…who will spend most of the film in trial answering to charges of unnecessary force."
That'd be a good structure for a film.
