So are those the names in the original cut of the song?  Did the writers name these characters as a means of leading up to that AMAZINGLY AWESOMELY PERFECT scene?  If so, BRAVO!  Hooray for clarity and persistence of vision, and thank you for bringing us Jessica Lange!

I can't imagine going to a box office and saying, One for Mama.

Mock if you must, but that's the greatest car commercial ever - except for the longer one where he plops his frappuchino foam on her chest and she squeegees it up with a finger and licks it off. 

I would try and find a link, but every time I google him and see his picture, it makes me sad.

Roger Ebert did a really great write up of the chronology of Pulp Fiction that I am sure you can find online.

The plot hole of Memento is that there is no way a snake like Joey Pants would get himself killed by a brain damaged Guy Pierce.  he KNEW more about Guy Pierce than GP knew about himself, and he was a slime, so it just wouldn't have happened.  I did love the Stephen Tobolowski parts, though.  Pure tragedy.

In The Days Of Wine And Roses, Jack Lemmon plays an alcoholic and Jack Klugman plays a sort of intervener/sponsor-role.  I saw that when I was a kid and thought it was a fun cross pollination fact.  Jack Klugman was great.  The last of the great Twilight Zone recurring leads.  90!  Good run, especially for a cancer

I was a father in his late 20's when these came out, and I almost cried during both of them.  I couldn't suspend disbelief in the framing of the verbal abuse the entire family shoveled on Kevin, and then the neglect that led to his abandonment, and Kevin's denial of how shitty every single member of his family was.

Being as it was Gina Gershon, they should have filmed that at Thanksgiving.  Heyyyyooooooooo!  (because, turkey leg.  I just think she could blow a turkey leg is what I am saying.  And I say that like, Way to go, Gina Gershon!)

I might have been laughing.  I don't really know, as I was freaking the fuck out for that whole section of the movie.

I have heard that from others, but I loved it.  Never met up with someone you haven't seen in a long time and you can't wait to get away from them?  Imagine if they are scumbag hoods…
