Well, ying tong iddle I po to you, then.

Weird. "Paperlate" just came up on the iPod as I was reading this thread.

It's funny you know,
'Cause there's an old rock 'n' roller
He's got nowhere to go.
Did you ever think of taking him in?
Somebody help him, somebody please.

Franco, my dear, I don't give a damn.

Andersons
The fascinating thing about all the Anderson productions — and I say this as a fan — is how they managed to wring production values out of a stone in every other respect save for the scripts, which were simultaneously simplistic, pedantic, and often internally illogical. I am really hard pressed to think of…

George, this is no place for prayer.
If you want to speak to OMM, you must go to a unichapel. You know that.

Gonzo: Agreed.

Goddamnit. Dinky Toys. Barry Gray. This is like some kind of middle-aged nerd dream thread for me. I feel so ashamed. Anyway, I'm caving despite my shame…

…maybe "Alien: Beach Dicks"?

OMG
When I read this headline, my first thought was that Monica Johnson had died. Then I re-read it backwards and everything was fine. Just fine.

Excited? I'm impacably calm. Er…damn.

Deanna basically hangs out, loses her closes
Loses her what-nows?

Beloved (yet morally troublesome) anti-heroes?
You left out the CBS Evening News' Dan Rather.

You can't fire me. But you can exercise my pay-or-play clause if you so choose.

Regarding Scott Pilgrim's box office…
…well, I guess there's only one more thing to be said…

Thanks, Al. And to think my mom said that all those years I wasted reading Starlog would never pay off.

Al, that guy would be Stuart Freeborn…
