Replace "stunned" with "disappointed" and that's my opinion on most crowds.

I had no idea BIG was still alive. This makes me happier than I would have guessed.

I mentioned this article on Twitter and was immediately followed by @EdWoodStatue. I think Ed would've liked that.

Different, sure, but you could make a case for Bert I. Gordon as a talented filmmaker. Attack of the Puppet People is pretty legit in my book.

There's nothing quite like watching an Andy Milligan film. The best of them are like watching a man paint the screen with his own ugly, ugly soul.

I hold that Robot Monster is actually a good film. If nothing else, it's a pretty damn bleak vision of a post-apocalyptic hellscape for that era of filmmaking.

As a guy who dedicates far too much of his time to watching atrocious cinema, I can confirm that Ed Wood is a long, long way from deserving his title of Worst Director Ever. Ironically, half the reason he's remembered as such is because he made distinctive, memorable movies with a strong authorial voice. There are…

This gives me hope for my dream of getting an Andy Milligan statue erected here in his native Saint Paul.

By this time, my son's lungs were aching for air.

Thank, @ObliqueStrategy:disqus . I shall give it a test run.

Wait, really? Dammit, that childcatcher has some explaining to do. I hope I still have the receipt…

Does that one have actual antagonists, though? I don't know how he got so sensitive, but my kid refuses to watch or read anything that has "mean guys" in it (except, oddly, Yellow Submarine, where he barely tolerates the Blue Meanies).

I suspect the one where they rescue a rock lobster who speaks in a Fred Schneider cadence would blow my mind if I saw it stoned. Not to mention the film noir one with Lauren Bacall voicing a literal vixen.

I bought a Windows 8 laptop because it was super cheap and I figured heck, my regular laptop is a few years old and it's good to have a backup. Man, this thing could've been a fifth of the price and I'd still feel ripped off. Some of my techie friends say it's actually a good OS once you learn the ins and outs, but I…

It is no easy task explaining to a 3-year-old that the computer that has always had
Wonder Pets on it no longer has Wonder Pets on it.

Seriously, the loss of all those Nickelodeon shows has me seriously considering dropping the service once I'm done with Arrested Development. As a child owner, 95% of my Netflix usage is streaming kids' shows, and those awful fucking LeapFrog shows they keep suggesting as a substitute are not cutting it.

Alls I know is they need to make nice with Viacom and get the goddamned Wonder Pets back on my computer pronto.

As I recall, Ebert liked that scene enough that he gave the movie a positive review. He said it should him something he'd never seen in a film before, and when you'd seen as many films as he had, that was worth some praise.

That's the best kind of joke!
