A quick perusal of Wikipedia's "Casual Dining" entry indicates that TGI Friday's is the winner. Founded 1965(!) in New York City(!). Who'd-a-thunk-it?

They are both Bennigan's ripoffs, if the history of the Northlake Mall is any indication.
I just want to thank mid-80s HBO for running this seemingly on a loop, and Mrs. Johnston, who not only had all the channels, but wasn't home and didn't mind what her son and his friends watched after school.
Shame! Shame on you, Sir or Ma'am. Catch-22 is maybe my favorite example ever of a movie adaptation that respects the source novel's spirit, plot, and characters without being encumbered by trying to cram in every bit of discursive brilliance.

NOT trolling. I did forthrightly, earnestly, and honorably enjoy the Buffy movie in the theater when it came out, and on VHS afterwards. It was and is a delightful trifle. By the time the series belatedly arrived… meh.
My volume having been thoroughly pumped, I have a sudden desire to have my cube gleamed. I think I'll regret that one, though.
201!
I'm pretty sure if one of the characters in the film is an astronaut, then they all have to be astronauts… am I in the right place?

If you're gonna cop your title from Titan A.E., you better have some talking kangaroo sidekicks, Mssrs. Smith.
