Yep - Chekov’s Skrull Counter-disguise setup in a quick throwaway line.

Do the BIM! I always felt sad for Vladek Sheybal (who played Mr. Boogalow in The Apple). He was a guy who lucked out on having famous friends (he was a friend of Sean Connery and Michael Caine when they were all starving stage actors) and never seemed to benefit much from this association (although Connery got him the…

It seems like there are at least four different definitions of confusing in regards to movies.

The Director’s Cut of Donnie Darko is a major step down, and both Kelly’s succeeding films made it clear that his brief career was a fluke.

Yes to all of this. 

Southland Tales or just the directors cut of Donnie Darko

to be clear i was texting.

I, personally, say Pak chooie unf to our new Tesla AI overlords.

Honestly, to answer your first question, if you look at the pictures ... yeah, it looks like it. They were in the second row, dead center. Six people stood up in a seated area, faced away from the artist during a song (probably for a decent amount of time), and took pictures with a flash that was presumably pointed at…

Except less convenient because you have to go outside and putz with propane. I’ll just get a double burner stovetop pan if anything, as I rarely need to grill that much at once.

Ah! Hahaha! Marvelous. If the writers don’t put that in an episode I’ll be mad.

Wait staffer: what a fabulous way to get that emtional supply. During the early years I supplemented my schooling as a server I never sought to piss anyone off but I can imagine the possibilities. I wonder if Collin makes as much money doing this as he did from his former ocupation. He was pretty much keeping that…

Sure doesn’t look like he gets much in the way of results out of all that effort.

No, definitely not. 

Good comp. As much as I am a diehard fan of these movies and know its lore, it’s still just a clothesline to the next jaw-dropping Cruise stunt.

Definitely not Abrams (through no real fault of his own). While I enjoyed M:I-3, it was such a massive underperformer at the box office that Paramount actually cut ties with Tom Cruise over it (alongside his, um, antics) and only patched things up when he rehabbed his image and they were starving for hits.

Everyone seems to be saying “after Covid” a lot in this article. It’s not over, friends are still getting zapped by it, ending in the Hospital. This has super-spreader all over it.

Damn straight it wouldn’t have fit in Star Wars. Any costume designer who proposed something as mundane as neckties ought to be banned from the franchise.

These moochers are the same people that will pay Wendy’s and UberEATS $40 for a meal for two, while complaining about paying $5 a month for Costco. 

Three a week if we’re lucky. Most of the time now it’s just a quick, poorly written and realized recap of the entire season and that’s it.
