And for all the shirtlessness I left the film marveling at how good Denis Lavant looks in a well-starched shirt. Seriously, now there's a man who can wear a shirt.

His calculations have found that Citizen Kane's last word should be "schwing"

I'm sorry, inconsistent sequel naming drives me mad. And while the Jurassic Park franchise isn't as bad an offender as the X-Movies, it's still infuriating. Dammit either go with Jurassic Park, Jurassic Park 2 & Jurassic Park 3, or Jurassic Park, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, & Even More Shameful Cash Grab: Jurassic…

Am I the only one who prefers brunette bad girl Reese Witherspoon to blonde insufferably cheerful Reese Witherspoon?

If there's a compas involved, it's Steampunk.

There actually isn't one family in each neighborhood that no one talks about. That's not really a universal thing. Did anyone watch that and go "wow, they're really on to something here. I can relate."

The knock against Ebert always used to be that he went too easy on movies, and gave good reviews to things like "Benji, the Hunted" for an example. I never understood this. The man loved movies. If the worst thing you can say about him was that he loved too many movies…. man we should all aspire to that.

I was really into Conan-gate while it was happening, even though I hadn't watched any of these shows for years (did watch lots of Conan in the 90's though). Then when it all got resolved I went back to not watching any of these shows, without much of a thought. So I guess I'm jaded.

Man, people are still arguing about who should be doing what on TV? That is so quaint. Someone should do a podcast about it.

You had John Cleese at a bookstore and didn't offer to sell him Ethel the Aardark goes Quantity Surveying?

And with Jimmy Fallon securely inked to a solid Tonight Show contract, certain to bring in that 18-35 demographic for decades to come, an air of enthusiasm and success filled the NBC boardroom. Executives lifted a glass to their triumph and began working on the new fall sitcoms. One of the men could be heard to say,…

Nerdiness isn't about what you like. It's about the passion with which you like it.

But who will play the still-living ex-pope who keeps mucking about, getting into schemes?

Bunga Bunga!

If I recall correctly, Jennings' Trivia Almanac had a little homage to this moment, with an entire category of trivia dedicated to all things "ho"

I dunno. Jennings linked this article on his Twitter with the caption "Write your Congressman" which seems to suggest he's up for it. The only downside for him, would be he'd have to relocate. And… well, ever trying getting a hip Mormon to leave Seattle? It ain't easy.

Ken Jennings as Jeopardy host needs to happen. Can't we use this Kickstarter-mathing to make this happen?

Split the Oscars into 3 hour-long acts, each culminating in a different major award, Director, Actor/Actress, Picture, each hosted by a different person. Get a variety of humor, keep the night moving along, attract good talent that doesn't have to commit to carrying a whole boring show.
