I thought of John K too. The hooker anecdote sounded similar. 

That whole thing is kinda funny, being generous. It mostly serves to illustrate that Paul Rudd can riff in this circumstance while Evangeline Lilly is uncomfortable with riffing and improv. The whole cruise ship thing is more cringe than not - just a set-up for live actors to enter the room and entertain people while…

Yeah, I was thinking this movie yells for a Tim Kazurinsky cameo.

I feel like “The Nightmare Before Christmass” has gotten short changed on a couple of these lists. Oogie Boogie is a bag of maggots. Nuff said.

I advocate for this every chance I get:

Song starts at 1:10

“Happy Working Song” isn’t that great. Couldn’t get why it was nominated for an Oscar. Other than “HaHA! it’s a spoof! She’s singing about toilets!”

“Feed the Birds” is the movie’s emotional gut-punch. It’s the reprise when George Banks goes on his long walk to get fired. Idk. Maybe the listers steered away “downer” songs.

With the tone of the article’s intro, I thought we’d get a few more “Outside the Box” choices.

I was working at a movie theater when Tangled came out. Circumstances being what they were, I was picking up trash during the Tangled end credits - frequently - and honestly, the end credit song was the best song in the movie. I could see how it had to be over the end credits, because the lyrics recapped the plot of…

Somewhere in the bottom 25 a slot cries out for this:

Rønning and Leto must have the same agent.

Rogue One: a Star Wars Story. And before some smart aleck gets on here and says “But it’s a prequel...” let me just say this:

It took me a few months and seeing Knives Out for me to go “Who is that actress? Wow.”

Me recommending Blade Runner 2049 to a friend way back when: “Yeah it was good. There’s a thing that a lot of sci-fi shows are doing with a ‘chosen child’ - the first biological being born of both humans and machines. And that’s interesting. But what was really new - and what got me - was this side plot about the…

Idk, Hanks wasn’t bad in Polar Express. In fact he was the only one in it, right? Oh, except for Eddie Deezen and a couple other “kids” on the train.

This. Totally a screenplay and story from somebody who went through it. It feels like a Hanks vehicle - he’s essential - while the old man casting could be variable. Jackie Gleason was great. But it could have been Walter Matthau or (who else was kicking back then?) Kirk Douglas or Robert Mitchum. Yeah, Jack Lemmon -…

Shoot, I should have got in the game earlier.

I liked that ep and I agree with the grade. Summarized: Jade would have been my “A” choice to receive the magic armor, Kit was the “B” choice - thus the “B” grade. She did good though. Hey, maybe they can share. Plus I get the need for the plot and all to give the armor to Kit. They’re trying to rescue Airk, after…

He’s upbeat too.
