This song sounds like a TV ad for allergy medication. I imagine scenes of people walking around a grassy field, basking in the sun, throwing frisbees with their dogs, while this music plays, and a woman's voice cheerily lists horrifying side effects.

When I was a kid, (late '70s/early '80s) there used to be a series of coloring books which had tessellations of simple geometric shapes on every page. There would be, like, six identical pages of alternating squares and triangles, and then six pages of triangles and hexagons, and other combinations. The idea was that

My favorite example of product placement is from Return of the Killer Tomatoes.

If I recall correctly, the script for part 4 was crowdsourced. For several months, the Troma website had a weekly contest, where fans were invited to submit two pages of script.

Do I get to choose for Burgess Meredith NOT to break his glasses?

I keep hearing this about the Jesuits. I don't understand how anyone can reconcile faith with "rigorous and fact-based" education. I don't understand why anybody would come to the faith willingly. I sure didn't. It was a nightmare. It still is.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus played a nymph in Troll?

I'm reminded of something I heard in the weeks after 9/11. I wish I could remember who said it; a politician or a pundit, perhaps. It seemed very insightful and it stuck with me:
"The War on Terror is a different kind of war. It's not a war between nations, or a war between armies. It's a war of ideas."

Right, because making martyrs always ends a faith. :-/

I didn't know J. Peterman was real until just now!
