Hand to God, I still know all the lyrics to that song by heart. Yeah, so that's a thing.

This may be sacrilege (wait … no, it's not. We're talking about people acting in movies we watch. I'm taking this way too seriously. Never mind), but I firmly believe Aykroyd's best film role to date, and likely ever, is Grocer in Grosse Pointe Blank.
But Star Trek: Enterprise did follow up on that, though. And, given that the whole dang episode was just a fun goof with Forrest-Gump-y character insertion, I feel it's less of a copout and more of a "this is really, truly all we can and need to say here" moment that I still find hilarious.
It's really Whitney Houston on the drums.
As cool as this one is, I do like the official video for this quite a lot. Shot in B&W, it features long-time character actor Joey Slotnick (he's one of those "that guy" actors and was on "The Single Guy" on NBC in the mid-90s) awakening in a hospital, bandaged head-to-toe. As he unravels the wraps and gets dressed,…
I don't remember the circumstances of why I didn't do that — I've definitely done that before — but I think I assumed the manager was either not in, or didn't care. As to why I didn't bail sooner, I can't say. I must really have been craving that burrito, shenanigans be damned.
I'll buy that it's legit. I had a similarly bizarre experience at a Taco Time drive-through in Seattle about 12 years ago in broad daylight.
The young soldier that we see in closeup yelling at Tom Hanks while he's temporarily dazed/deafened was a good friend and fellow theater student of a friend of mine. I saw the film with my friend, who'd shown me photos/videos of said friend, so when we saw his friend's big moment (which he didn't know where or when in…
It's clickbait .. in diguise!
I paid $3 for it. Am I doing it wrong? Asking for a friend.
Huh… I enjoyed it the fourth time I saw it, in a near-capacity crowd over a month after the film's release no less, as much as I did the first time. Maybe I'm doing it wrong? Eh, I think I'm OK.
Can't agree more. Wildly creative creatures and scenes can't mask its total and unsatisfying lack of an interesting story. And the ending, which I guess Mieville thought would be profound or thought-provoking, is a disappointing and tasteless capper to a tedious, pretentious, self-satisfied slog of a novel.
I've come around it for a few reasons. One, it echoes Mike's fate of ending up part of the establishment you'd rebelled against. And it's foreshadowed by the fixer guy with his "empires fall" warning. I also don't mind that Hanzee/Tripoli eventually is taken out "easily" by Malvo since "mythical" violent figures…
But folks are doing such a good job articulating all the overarching themes and sentiments and such! To each their own, but every fate felt perfect to me. I'm just a sucker that way.
Zahn McClarnon himself confirmed his fate: http://www.hollywoodreporte…
As confirmed by Zahn McClarnon and speculated elsewhere, Hanzee undergoes extensive plastic surgery, eventually becoming Moses Tripoli, the mob bossed killed by Malvo in Season 1. (Which makes Lou the father-in-law of the guy who killed the guy who killed him.)
Here's what's killing me: we watched it live via the FXNOW channel on our Roku, and through some glitch, Hank's explanation of the language got cut off after 5 seconds, midword. The show then jumped to Lou and Betsy in bed saying good night , then end of episode. I thought it was Hawley creating another mystery, but…
I thought that Gene Simmons/demon ad was just a nightmare from my childhood. Thanks for puttin' that on the ol' front page-a-roo, AVC!
I must be immune to the badness of this song. Maybe because I heard it so much as a kid? I dunno. It's just meh for me, more than anything else. But I respect everyone else's seemingly universal bile towards it.
Did he have his gun? Or was he just tying knots? I'll have to go back and watch.
