Hell, just listen to Hitchhiker's- it's plain that Adams is constantly changing what the show's focus is going to be as he goes along because he never planned ahead.

Adams actually said in interviews that he was disappointed in how this story was realized- that everyone got the idea "Oh, this is a comedy, we've all got to wheel out the funny voices and silly walks." It's not entirely unsuccessful but I think playing it straight would have helped the actual humor stand out a little…

You're forgetting the power disparity here. She could have quit then and there, sure. And forfeited money that she may have needed. That pressure is always there in conflicts between labor and management, which is why it is usually best to side with the former.

Good. Not much more to say.

I don't think she had a writing credit on that, did she?

Surprised that McCarthy co-wrote this, since the trailers make it look like an old Chris Farley vehicle that got dusted off and had a few pronouns changed.

IUDs cost a helluva lot more than that.

So glad that meteor didn't destroy civilization after all.

The Great Muppet Caper is on Netflix, and though I had watched the two movies surrounding it many times as a kid, I was much less familiar with this and basically was watching it for the first time. It's fun, almost purely jokey in the vein of the Muppet Show, with lots of great gags even if it just sort of rambles to…

I'm afraid I must decline your offer of marriage, for you see, I'm dying. Cough then fall over dead.

"The Aurora Borealis. At this time of year. In this part of the world. LOCALIZED ENTIRELY WITHIN YOUR KITCHEN."

It's been great having you here, Todd. Thanks for everything.

Richardson is just perfect. Adorable yet terrifying.

Picked up Bioshock on a whim last week. It's pretty fun but I haven't gotten very far.

I prefer gaudy colors to the eternal beige most blockbusters seem to settle for these days (I'm looking at you, Man of Steel.)

To be fair this is sort of a legal issue as well- they legally have to say it's Bob Kane and Bob Kane only. The onus is on Kane's estate.

REMEMBER ME!

Spent most of it at the Hear Now Festival in KC, celebrating audio theater past and present. You know how people still do radio plays and that sort of thing? Well this had some of them available for listening, including one I worked on at a festival a few years back. It was great touching base with the people I'd met…

Just about any of the ones from major movies (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, etc.) would be a bitch to clear now. Back in the day studios didn't ask much for movie clips, now it's all valuable IP.

Yeah, I really cannot bring myself to be snarky about any of this because KITTY! HI THERE KITTY!
