The theatrical ending is still a riff on Night of the Living Dead, in that it's a full subtextual reversal. In NotLD, the character/audience make it through the horror and finally see an authority figure and are relieved, which is immediately cut short. In the theatrical ending of Get Out, we finally see an authority

Yep. It's strongly implied that that's what convinced him of black people's (physical) superiority. And that's also why he's constantly running.

Though they made it clear there was really no evidence he was even there, so his eventual disappearance couldn't be pursued. The cop at the beginning didn't even get to make a record of his ID (because of Rose, which I thought was a pretty subtle clue that you don't catch until much later in the film).

(Of course, it's practically a horror movie law that if you survived the last movie you die in the first five minutes of the sequel. Unless you're Jamie Lee Curtis.)

I didn't scroll back up and assumed we were talking about Jimmy Stewart. Though he wasn't in Arsenic and Old Lace either.

She got to see the clue while she buzzed in, so she could work out the square root as she said it. It wasn't quite that hard.

"What is babby?"

This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.

After a Trump impeachment, you'd think a Pence administration would be pretty moribund, like Ford.

Right, but that article doesn't mention Excalibur being Uther's weapon anywhere. My point is that the Sword in the Stone and Excalibur being one and the same is an uncommon version of the myth, and adding the Uther backstory on top of that makes for a combo I don't think actually existed until very recently.

Although Angel wasn't really a teen show…

Well… fine, then. This is a weird trend. Does anyone know if this actually has a basis in the versions of the legend that are older than, say, 1900?

I'm not sure if "Who do we get to play a younger version of this actress? How about her daughter!" counts as "genius".

Though this would mean we'd have to suffer through two other spinoffs that do get picked up.

But does Uther also wield the sword prior to Arthur? Because that's the other idiosyncrasy in this clue, and both need to be true for it to fit.

Sonic CD, of course!

We can only hope.

It was "We Got the Beat", which to be fair is from their first album.

I was pretty excited when a WOMEN IN MUSIC clue contained the title "Hold On", but when I read the full clue I realized it wasn't about Neko Case and was disappointed.
