West is in it, but you're right, the other guy is the Crusoe part. His name was Paul Mantee, and judging by his IMDB page, he had a better career than West, all things considered.

I guess Ridley didn't bother to research film history either. Adam West found plenty of water in Robinson Crusoe on Mars.

I always was aware of Taylor, because he kept showing up in stuff that I liked (Inspector Morse, Almost Famous) plus some stuff that I didn't (Tomb Raider). He can be one of those bright-spot-in-an-otherwise-shit-movie guys.

I was a projectionist for a couple showings of RHPS in college. The audience participation angle was fun. It is a great way to see that particular movie. It came out on home video not long after that, and I quickly realized that without the audience participation, it is kind of terrible.

Good list. Love Kim Dickens, especially in Treme, though she is giving Fear The Walking Dead a good boost as well. And that was Ben Mendelsohn in The Year My Voice Broke? Holy shitsnacks. He did great work as Coach Taylor's estranged brother in Bloodline.

Somebody get Hal Needham on the horn. He's dead? Damn it.

Next time you're in Montreal, you should visit Drawn & Quarterly, where they make the good comics.

The French call that an "American feedbag".

Don't ever change, Tim Kring. Oh, you didn't! Carry on then.

Finally, the internet is good for something.

Or perhaps they are celebrities looking to buy some property from celebrities?

I would like to add a recommendation for The Leftovers, which certainly had its issues, but is pretty horrifying at times.

It's easy to tell the difference, Samberg is the one that makes me laugh sometimes. Kimmel, never.

Don't you have to be American-born to run for President? Or did they do away with that rule?

As someone else pointed out, Aziz appears in the new Crash Test thing that Paul and Rob created. As does Aubrey Plaza from Parks. The special is ok, made me chuckle a few times, but not as often as the average episode of HDTGM.

He was one of the members of Human Giant, a sketch comedy group that was beloved despite being on MTV.

I like them better than Shia LaBoeuf's comics.

He was too busy being a super-stalker to randomly kill dudes.

I don't recall that specifically - been at least 20 years since I last saw it - but I wouldn't be surprised.

Fun as this is, nothing tops the Captain Marvel serials of the 40s where Cap is chased to a roof by some gangsters. He solves the problem by just throwing them off the roof to their certain deaths. I like to think he also did a claps-dust-off-hands move afterward but I may be misremembering.
