Memphis also. It's dumb.

Call Ryan Seacrest!

I saw the short first, so the feature always seemed padded. But it's fun.

I think it was entirely what it appears to be — chicks can be into private school miniskirts just like the rest of us.

36 is middle aged? Fuck you.

I do wish we'd gotten the scene where Xan learns about Kimmy's past. Keeping that secret was such a central part of the first season.

I think they did a good job of disguising it by making that opening sequence seem just like similar sequences we've seen before.

Yeah, I've been humming Boobs in California non-stop for days. Jeff Richmond, everybody!

The whole thing is plodding. It's constructed as a trick, and for the trick to work you have to think it's a conventional story. By the end of the film you realize it is not, but the only way they had to convince you it was a conventional story is to play the middle 75 minutes in an entirely conventional manner.

I really liked Felicia in that period she and Spidey were dating back in the mid-'80's. Her unapologetic hedonism was a welcome antidote to his mopey personality. And let's be clear — I like Peter's mopey personality! But I found it refreshing when his co-star confronted him with how awesome his life was. I don't…

Does she have big cans?

My wife likes to play that game with me (I'm a huge Trekkie and think Star Wars is fine, although the toys weren't as good as my G.I. Joes). But she is so uninterested in either of them that she is equally as likely to actually say the correct name as the wrong one.

OH! And I remember Jon C. on the playground of Rankin Elementary telling us all that Vader was Luke's father before anyone else had seen the movie. From time to time I look at the pending Facebook friend request he sent me two years ago and think "Sorry, pal, but you're not yet forgiven."

I had an R5-D4 toy (the red droid Uncle Owen buys which immediately breaks so the Jawas give him R2 in recompense). Why did I have that instead of Rs? Who can say?

My recollection is a little rusty, but I believe the original Fett toy was a mail-away of some kind. So scarcity made him the object of intense interest which never quite abated.

The first is being in line to see Empire and getting turned away because it had sold out. I think we were in Chicago visiting my cousins. (We saw it eventually, but I don't have a particular memory of doing so beyond my memory of the film.)

…

Or, as in the original, both!

Reyes doesn't make much sense in the context (although anything's possible). Stevie Hunter was a character actually present during the period referenced (Reyes came along a decade later). Although, Stevie might be too close to Claire Temple.

In my case, not in a subtle way at all.
