OK, you totally made me go look up Deadly Friend on Wikipedia, and discovered it was written by the same guy who wrote Jacob's Ladder, Stuart Little 2, and Ghost (for which he won an Oscar for best original screenplay).

I remember exactly one scene from the movie, where the robot throws a ball at the old lady from "Throw Momma From The Train"'s head and it explodes, causing the old lady's decapitated corpse to walk and flail around for a hilarious period of time.

Best of Season 5
Time to vote for your favorite episode of Season 5.

Someday I want to meet the Simpsons writer who came up with "Contrabulous Fabtraption of Professor Horatio Hufnagel" and give them a hug, because it cracks me up every damn time.

It took forever for Miller's Crossing and Barton Fink to come out on DVD, so it may be a while before they make their way over to Blu-Ray.

Different movie, but I love the story that Peter Stormare tells about his line in Fargo where he says, "Where is pancakes house?" He thought the line as written in the script was a typo, so when they were filming the scene, he said, "Where is the pancake house?" The Coens stopped the scene and asked him why he wasn't…

Turturro did make Romance and Cigarettes, which I am tempted to see just because the MYOF entry made it sound completely whackadoodle.

Not a bad nominee, but I'm thinking the top three has to be Holy Grail, Airplane!, and Lebowski.

I think it's inferred that Chet! dies, but it's not explicitly stated.

I couldn't get through more than 20 minutes of Gerry, and I'm more patient than most when it comes to that kind of arty bullshit.

Wow
Sounds like Rabin needs a hug.

The Freak Book episode was amazing. And it had Toby Huss and John McEnroe!

My penis is so average, I have nothing remarkable to say about it whatsoever.

Is that gash in your leg
Really why you have stopped?
'Cause I've noticed all the others
Though they're gashed, they're still going
'Cause I feel like the real reason
That you're quitting, that you're admitting
That you've lost all the will to battle on

The Wall

God dammit
I miss Phil Hartman.

Her?

Yeah, it was okay. Even decent for a big dumb summer movie. It certainly looked better by comparison to the awful, awful previews for Transformers, Land of the Lost, and Night at the Museum.

Why Winona?
Why did they have Winona Ryder in old-age makeup as Spock's mom? Why not just cast an older actress?
