"Tomorrow's already the 10th…"

That garbage-disposal psychiatrist from Firestarter also managed to be previously killed by It in the late 1950s. (I guess he got better.) Bad luck, fella!

My favourite thing Coupland did (relatively) recently was the "Souvenir of Canada" documentary. The section on boring Canadian roadtrips was spot on.

I thought he must be Emo Philips' dad.

I'd lead.

Ohhh, something's wrong with its brakes!!

Jackman is totally right
Not only will the movie be thought provoking, but I will think twice before even seeing this movie.

[idspispopd walks out… through the wall.]

That "projection" joke is one of my all-time favorites. Glad to know someone else likes it.

Fear not, Cheese, I'll send the Smart Patrol to your rescue.

Tossing The Papers
Man, did this guy EVER write anything that he liked? What a perfectionist!

How to recognize different types of girls from quite a long way away.
Number 1… The Ash. The… Ash.

I played Myst cooperatively with my dad, which is a great memory. I couldn't wrap my young mind around that pneumatic tree elevator puzzle, either, but he figured it out right away — I think he said, "Oh, that's *obviously* a steam-powered tree!", as if steam-powered trees were something that were very common in his…

I'm not puttin' my lips on that.

He's changing the way we think about cramming too much into a movie!

I really like the original "Dawn", but I think you have a point about colour detracting from its lasting impact. In all of the releases I've ever seen, the blood has a heavy (and silly) orange tint. And when the large zombie horde finally hits, half of them resemble undead Smurfs.

I'd like more context as well, given by the footage rather than the hosts. Often the production on these cable access shows is just as unintentionally funny as the talent. The clip length makes puts me in mind of MST3K if it were composed of nothing but host segments and stingers.

Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go to a movie screening, son.

And here I was, all primed and ready to congratulate your spryness.

Shrinkwrapped suffers by comparison to their early stuff, but it's a solid album to be sure. (Pre-Boomer oldsters? Are you in your 70s?)
