They should base a feature here on that…

And there are wolves after me!

Do you think the first scene of Tina trying the cat food was a deliberate Ratatouille reference?
Maybe partly, but definitely a reference to many cat food commercials over the years… And the bit with the spinning shrimp and other shapes seemed like a reference to the old Lucky Charms commercials.

It was a real bummer to starry-eyed young me to learn how Wells' penchant for "free love" left the real Amy Robbins rather neglected.

I've been on a couple of the American ones around the US, including the USS Pampanito in San Francisco (which wasn't massively overhauled in the late '40s like most of the rest, and is still in pretty close to its WWII configuration), as well as the U505 in Chicago. They're all terribly cramped, but the US really did…

I wouldn't be that self-conscious. I don't think they'd be any more appalled by a particular leader than we are to look at a swarm of locusts and say: "That locust is the biggest asshole of all!".

In contrast, being bolted into a cramped iron tube in near pitch darkness and turning a crank with all your might while your air…

including the Nautilus from 1800, which was named after Jules Verne’s fictional submarine from 30 years earlier

I never knew that was an alias. He was a pretty productive composer of distinctive stock tracks that were widely used on English TV, on Monty Python and elsewhere. NFL Films also has relied heavily on them — a particular favorite of mine being "Man of Power": https://www.youtube.com/wat…

Again, particularly for its time. Today, ambient electronic stuff is all over the place. Back then it was pretty striking and novel.
Really great use of PIL's "The Order of Death" too.
