Well, you know what it is. When we say that it doesn't "look" realistic, what we mean is that it doesn't feel realistic.

They also did a great job of making Kurt Russell pretty scruffy and disagreeable. He looked like he wouldn't smell particularly good.

As a side note, I also enjoy that the Thing isn't fast and deadly like a xenomorph. At times it seems almost uninterested in its own survival, like when the aforementioned head-on-crab-legs stops in the doorway to hiss at the guy with the flamethrower. For most of the movie it appears to be operating at a base animal…

I saw this back in 1989 or so. Even at the time I didn't think they looked 'real'. But like the stop-motion T-800 at the end of The Terminator, that turned out to be a feature rather than a bug.

I dig that simile.

To be honest I thought that Goldeneye looked like garbage even at the time. When it dropped on console I was playing Tribes on PC so it was mostly just weird to me that everyone was going crazy over this incredibly blurry, muddy-looking game with the tiny little four-way split screens.

I'll give the age-appropriate thing a pass when literally everybody involved is supposed to be sexy demons.

That's funny, I thought he was terrible and a huge distraction in that scene. And it takes work to be terrible in a three-minute scene that calls on you to stand in a room and read some lines.

To be fair, at least that was part of the joke.

You mean, your old friend's sister? Or is your friend's sister super-old?

On the subject of his wealth and fame, Jim Carrey (appropriately) had a good line on the subject:

They would prefer him to no longer exist, thanks.

Counterintuitively, the average Trump voter actually has a higher average household income than the average Clinton voter—something like $70k/y vs $55k/y.

I still think that "binders" thing was horseshit. Attack the man's ideas, his plans, the people he associates with. Don't seize on one awkward phrase (where you know perfectly damn well what he was saying) and use that to bludgeon the guy.

The one tract that really sticks in my mind was a parable about two soldiers in Vietnam.

I find Hardwick traffics just as often in spaniel-like enthusiasm for people, events, shapes and colours.

I'll see you and raise, if you can do that with a negative. I've never even seen the pilot.

IIRC Schwarzenegger and Ventura are never even in the same place. You might be thinking of Killian's beefy bodyguard Sven, who steps aside at the last minute because he "has to go score some steroids".

Stand corrected. Terrible as it sounds I figured he had to be dead. I feel like he's been an 'older gentleman' since 1975.

Ronny Cox is one of those men (like the late, great Robert Vaughn) who seems like he was born in a pearl-grey three piece suit and expensive shoes.
