This extended interview with him dating from the release of Five Chiefs in 2011 is worth a watch for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is that he was 91 (!) at the time and clearly hadn’t lost a step at all.

As treatment for melanoma is considered medically necessary by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, as a taxpayer I commend her fashion sense.

Yep, I scrolled down to find this. I still have never made it through a rewatch of that film.

If you’ve not already been advised, I would strongly suggest that you avoid Mindhunter then. The entire premise of the series is the dive into what makes serial killers tick.

I’ve been to Willits - that one bookstore in town is worth a visit (presuming it still exists) - and had no idea this stinker existed!

A quick search found an old PI article that actually has a few pictures.

“The one thing about living in Santa Carla that I never could stomach: all the damned dentists.”

IMDB can often be wrong, but if it’s right Bill Tench and Holden Ford only show up in the first, fourth, and fifth episodes of Season 2.

I was surprised to learn the last one (at Union Station, apparently) had closed down in 2013. Thought they’d all gone the way of the dodo years before that.

Yep, they’re easy but I’ve been to afterparties where an untied one elicited surprise versus the ubiquitous clip on that 80% were wearing.

I do think you need to give credit to the inspiration for this, elsewise the rabbit might decide that it doesn’t need to come out of the hole, around the tree, and back down the hole.

...but McGrath is a self-described moderate who believes the Democrats currently running for president are veering too far to the left. She doesn’t support eliminating private insurance under a Medicare-for-all plan, nor does she support subsidizing healthcare for undocumented immigrants. She also describes herself as

I tried playing Commander Keen, but this iteration of Windows 1.0 didn’t have enough memory to run it. And, no, Wolfenstein 3D wouldn’t work either.

If you’re talking character development, I’d actually argue the reverse holds true: Steve as non-sexual wingman is really more the female and/or 2019 version of the fantasy. From my own experience back then, there was palpable hostility from the lesbian community if you’d bring a straight guy friend into social

Starred since I just referenced that film a couple of days ago too.  “Everybody on earth deals with fear.  That’s what little brains do!”

which was so secret it never received a code name

Having actually guzzled the crap down back then (and for many years thereafter as Coke II), I actually didn’t mind the most overt new Coke placement: the argument between the kids about the flavor.

It’s a bit strange to say this, but the real life Monterey not having a thriving therapist scene actually makes a little sense even if their version of the town is wildly unrealistic.

This is why I was actually a little disappointed that the Duffers went down the abusive father road in the beach sequence, even though it later became obvious why they felt they needed it once El used that part of his past to redeem him.
