I think Kevin Spacey brings a certain sense of menace that wouldn't be appropriate for Harold Hill. He can sing and dance pretty well, though.

What about Buddy Hackett? Shipoopi just wouldn't be the same without him.

Sleeping Beauty is quite possibly the most beautiful Disney film to look at. It's plotting is pretty awful, though. As a result, the fairies get to be the stars of the movie, which is to it's benefit. I think I'd want to wait to show it to my kids until after they'd got some kind of appreciation for art, rather…

I like Dashiell Hammett because he and I share a similar disinterest in plots.

Since the comments for the review made Paul Schrader seem like a piece of shit director, I wanted to point I that Paul Schrader directed the movie with James Coburn at his badass-edness: Affliction.

I think there's a potential to use him in an interesting way, they just haven't done so yet. A lot of the animosity towards Hawley is that he's like a replacement for characters that were already well liked and well established. Why bring in a new character when Jenny and Irving had next to nothing to do all season?…

I love both cats and dogs, but I reserve respect for cats.

I have never watched an episode, so I had this spoiled seconds ago when I read #RIPBeth in your comment.

I've given up as well, but seriously, what's so wrong with "raises the question?"

I may be wrong here, but my guess is that oil companies are heavily investing in alternative fuels or conducting the research themselves, and are just keeping it quiet. It would seem far too short-sighted for them to have the vast amount of research funds that they have available and not use them to pre-emptively…

Challah, if I'm not mistaken.

Most, but not all, blurays are region free and they don't have PAL/NTSC issues. I bought my copy of the Twin Peaks box set from amazon UK and saved about $50, but like Texass said, it looks like they've wised up. Still, keep them in mind for future purchases.

The Russian fox breeding experiment is a great example of this, and it's still ongoing:

They can make a huge amount of beneficial stuff from nuclear waste. Jimmy Carter signed a ban on recycling commercial nuclear waste, which is just one of the reasons he is histories greatest monster. As much as I support other alternative energy sources, I think it's silly to go out of our way to not use nuclear…

Is the book of Joshua the one where they bash babies against rocks? I may be confusing it with Blood Meridian.

People often neglect the part where the puritans stopped off in the Netherlands for a while before they came to America. They went to the Netherlands to seek religious freedom, but left because they felt the Jews had too much religious freedom. What a bunch of dicks.

Along the same lines as young earth creationism, the fact that some still believe in flood geology drives me nuts. It takes a huge amount of gall to go to the Grand Canyon and suggest that it was created in one event.

As individuals, engineers are usually fucking weird.

There are those such as Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron who are perfectly willing to admit that lifeforms (excluding humans) have gradual changes, but somehow have it in their mind that evolutionary theory posits that one species can give birth to an entirely different species. They regard this as ridiculous, because it…

If Katee Sackhoff is the gateway drug through which people get addicted to Longmire, then I see her value now.
