I'd heard Atlanta was just working as a stunt double. Nice to see her moving up in the world.

Hollywood has led me to believe that all serial killers are deeply concerned with aesthetics.

You missed the first step.

She doesn't want to be short-shamed by Esther Zuckerman.

I'm sure he has. I think about catching on the better works of his from the last thirty years, but I keep putting it off. I should just get a short story collection and see if that draws me back in.

At least this is going to have fewer scenes on toilet scrubbing on 21st Century Earth.

I'm hoping it is a case of him simply not having a project he cared about because he really cares about this one.

And Chris Tucker would have been fine if they had just left had the first couple of scenes with him. Having him tagging along for the rest of the movie was overkill.

I watched that again when the Valerian trailer came out, and I was impressed at just how well it holds up. It doesn't have much of a plot, but it doesn't need one.

As someone that started readin King back in the day, Tommyknockers was when I got that feeling I was just going around in a circle now. The cameo by a waving Pennywise just underlined it. It was like he was waving goodbye because he knew I wasn't coming back for the next book.

Ah. Thought they were cramming this one into one movie, which is dumb in a different way.

That version of the movie had the huge flaw of having two movies with the whole first movie being the kids, then the second being the adults. I just can't see anyway that wouldn't have resulted in the second half feeling redundant.

*takes another bong hit and holds up a bud, looking at it closely.

It came out when I was a freshman in high school. I have never revisited it since then, and it's kept it a good book.

I hate it when people name their band after pop culture references that aren't the least bit obscure. It's just announcing a complete lack of creativity.

GIving away the whole plot always seems more desperate than confident to me.

Sometimes they rescue people, but generally as an aside to fighting a guy in a suit.

Well, yeah…

My mother developed a taste for it and has a Cincinnati chili recipe that she makes from scratch. She gets all the steps right.

I'm making a joke about it, but I actually do like it as a characterization. Stark should have some dickishness to him.
