Job title: Armageddon Reassurance Coordinator

@avclub-c0dc1051164bf1848c76c1e9fce2544d:disqus : And to a point I totally agree with that.  And I do think movies like this are fun.  It's just I find it odd that we can take two cable television shows and treat them as though they're not only different animals but different species, so to speak.

@avclub-5729ca33ae94a781cb6466b86979fa06:disqus : You have me confused.  I made The Magnificent Membersons.  Totally different.  The other two titles I don't know at all— perhaps you're thinking of my cousin Rod?

Yeah, see… I think that dictum simply encourages mediocrity.  "Have low standards, and don't challenge your audience, and you'll have no trouble," is kind of what it amounts to, or so it seems to me.

I think the picture is like a sort of low-key surrealist portrait.

It's OK, it helped too. :)

I'm in a great deal of pain at the moment and A Quantum of Slugworth made me laugh a lot and now I hurt more.  So thanks, @Scrawler2:disqus .

Exactly.  I remember Nova having that as a kid— it was just a weird kind of didgeridoo-ish hum.  I haven't seen it lately— have they changed that music?

I always liked Lane's comment on the conceit that the centuries-old sage Yoda could somehow never master basic grammar:

He must have loved that.

Why even animate them?  Just have them all sit there scowling.

Regarding Random Roles, I'm not usually one to say, "Why didn't you ask him about…" because I know that time is always limited and everyone's got their own list.  And Sam always does a good job with these.

Really?  How disappointing.  I thought I'd heard it was he and Julie Christie, which frankly is a pretty great couple to imagine riding the train together.

This onomatopoeia suggests something more like a Star Trek communicator to me.  A slide whistle is more:

That's why Chucky's not scary any more— he's just too mobile.  At this stage he's basically a leprechaun.

Any good hardware store will sell perfectly serviceable doll traps.

Strangely, I think there's some Halloween episode of either Little House on the Prairie or The Waltons where something like this happens.  No joke.

It's the Innsmouth look.

@avclub-e57f718840a576abbb40a7d046c4e3b0:disqus Well, you can think of it as "descending," or you can see it as achieving a sort of purity.

You live in post-rapal America.
