Weren't they the gang that did security at Altamont?

Say hello to his little friend!

She's also in Streets of Fire, which is kind of like Hill's even more stylized '80s re-imagining of this.

Thanks, Vinz…

Sorry about the "trigger" — I just thought it followed from the idea that addressing the underservice of gay audiences would address the broader issue. I personally think the best solution to zero-sum battling over cultural institutions is the disintegration of those institutions, such that no subculture can exert…

I'm not so sure it's a "curable" condition. Any subculture is likely to place its own interpretation on media. And subcultures don't disappear just because they're "accepted by the mainstream". They only truly disappear when they're abandoned because their members cease to identify with them — Instead prioritizing…

I fundamentally agree, but it's complicated by the fact that there's a Hollywood history of gay creative people intentionally producing "subtext", and "underserved" gay audiences projecting subtext onto films, whether it was intended or not.

I'm a bit shocked that they're unlocking the Newswire offices for this. Good luck rounding up the staff afterward. Merry Chrismas and other festivals to all. I'll be thinking of you when I air my grievances.

There are a lot of covers out there, as there are with most Christmas songs — https://en.wikipedia.org/wi…

Sinatra's Christmas song is "The Christmas Waltz". He doesn't need to lay claim to this one. It's just a mercenary "cover for hire" for him, and it works as that, and no more.

Wikipedia's entry on the prison explains the band name as slang for the death throes of a hanging victim, so make of that what you will:

Spandau was a conventional prison, rather than a concentration camp, though the Nazis certainly brutalized political prisoners held there, such prisoners were transferred to true concentration camps fairly early in the Nazi regime.

2:48 a.m.Thank God I snuck a Fiber One bar in here with me.

I know elderly Italian men with the same exact bumper sticker.

This is a fairly baffling remake to me, as it seems unlikely that the audience that could really appreciate its strengths is one that would be averse to seeing the original just because it's a foreign film. To the extent there's a market out there that would be put off by that, but still enjoys extreme gore and…

Where the hell did that definition "come" from?

She did, and it was supposedly what inspired Lucas to name the Vader-like masked villain/lead henchman in Willow "General Kael".

It's the campaign version of the Chewbacca Defense.

Though the twist here with the sociopaths doesn't make very much sense to me — You might want soldiers incapable of empathy if they were actually coming to grips with the enemy, but when they're distanced by video links and electronic interfaces, it's unclear why drone operators should be much more burdened by remorse…

Nah… He'd feel extremely conflicted.
