Wake me when we get a live action multi camera sitcom of Where's Huddles.

Van Dyke was interviewed about it a few years ago. He acknowledged that the ending would only have been a surprise back then, and that he hoped if they'd done the show years later it wouldn't have made sense…

—As hyperbolic as that graphic novel autobiography was (hey, it's Stan, it's gonna be) when he said that, just like Peter Parker, he thought he's "hit the jackpot" when Joan showed up, I was almost moved to tears. And that was before she died…

That's good, but —-ever see The Boy Who Could Fly….?

Wait a sec on that Dick Van Dyke show thing - 'member when Greg Morris guest-starred? A very funny episode made funnier by the fact that NO ONE was expecting the twist because it was 1963 and it was on tv.
(I don't know who the writers were, but Reiner must have approved the episode…)

They really were - to the point that I was sometimes sure it WAS Stan…maybe writing from the past because the style was so perfectly 60s-70s Marvel.
And of course he could send messages from the past, he knows Kang personally.

No, it's not something to be happy about, that so many people haven't learned from it… some people will never learn from such sentiments, more's the pity. It's something Stan should be proud of, though, I think.

It was the graphic novel autobiography of Stan that I learned - relearned, actually, Lee had talked about it before - that his meeting Joan was pretty much exactly the same jolt for him as meeting MJ was for Peter Parker.. and that Joan was the same kind of vivacious, fun-loving, no-shit-taking woman as MJ.

Okay, I AM old - I remember that particular Soapbox from when I read actual comics.
Sean Howe's Marvel Comics - the Untold Story has stuff in it about Stan's and Jack's anti-bigotry and anti-war attitudes, in life and in comics. Stan has done some not-admirable things but to me it seems like he's been trying to make…

I was kinda for her too on first viewing - but the second viewing pointed up (to me) what soulless bastards BOTH of the men were…
Maybe "soulless" is too harsh.
Maybe not though.

I really only know Cathy Moriarity from Raging Bull and Matinee.
And I will keep it that way, thus maintaining my youth eternally.

I read a really good biography of the band, some years back. Can't recall the title. But boy oh boy, they ALL had fucked up childhoods. The Wilson dad was piece of work.

How objectively critically acclaimed are Led Zeppelin and the Doors? Because holy hell, I can't stand either band.

Well now. "Good night baby" — be fair, that's sheer genius and the song would be nothing without it.

I'm old enough to remember when Good Vibrations - the longer version - was a hit on the radio. I didn't know for years how much work went into the song, but it was subtly (to me) much more than a pop hit.
And - I know Brian Wilson was/is a music producing genius, but I have a real fondness for their cars, girls and…

Can we have a contest to find out what island we can exile them onto?
I choose the island of Dr. Moreau. They like genetics so much….

I agree on that, Dikachu - I have always just used the Nazi label no matter what they've branded themselves as. It's easy and short, and I don't have time for long words.
(Plus - "supremacist" implies that they're better than … something.)

He'll make a good press secretary. Spicer got whiny when things got uncomfortable, the Huckabee woman gets scowly.
This guy can do both, then burst into tears!

Tiki torches? Pssh. Grab you a Super Soaker next time the Nazis march.
(That particular squirt gun was invented by Lonnie Johnson, a black engineer/inventor from Alabama, so… you know, irony!)
