Time and Tide. Holy hell do I love that movie. The shootout at the tenements remains one of my favorite ction set pieces. It broke me from my affinity for slow motion.

What if they offer you a free face-taco? Which, I suppose, is just a barbacoa taco…

"..it’s no wonder he bailed without eating".

Hoosiers! Totally forgot about that one. Although, given that it's about high school basketball in the 50's, it may still support my terribly flawed, impossible to support theory.

I remember being amused by that fridge full of beverages video back in the day (although all a young man really needs to keep stocked for guests is bottled water, Sprite (bottles, not cans), and yes, snacks for the kids, in case your guest has any).

Hell, chain restaurants in general (and possibly local joints as well—the ones around here tend not to share nutrition info on a website or menu).

Are you talking to me?

At least he acknowledged his handsome guy privilege.

Just looked it up, and somehow that movie's budget was $55 million in 1996. For comparison's sake, Independence Day's budget was $75 million. The baseball stalker movie had 73% of the budget of the world-destroying alien invasion spectacle that turned mass digital destruction into a summer movie sub-genre. How in the

Bull Durham. League of Their Own. Field of Dreams. The Natural. Eight Men Out. Moneyball. And, of course, the Deniro and Snipes classic, The Fan.

I have a very flawed theory that the more boring the sport is to watch (generally speaking), the more exciting the movie is. Baseball makes for great sports movies. I personally love football, but can still acknowledge that a televised game is tedious to watch in person, yet it makes for some very good sports movies.

This chart is missing some sort of "as long as it's delicious I'll eat it and designation be damned!" classification.

Where's Dildo?

"Bone-hinge." Boom, I already would've whooped this Kumail's ass in "Can't Rhyme It." He wants none of this. None.

Oh what would you know about good parenting, Spidey. You sold your unborn child to Marvel's Satan!

Fan devotion ≠ new, unique daily clicks. Unfortunately, the best present model for keeping a somewhat sizable writing site like this going is to keep fresh, new hits coming in daily. Much as the comparatively small community of regular commenters (myself included) snub our noses at most GJI articles, re-posted

Still probably a good business decision, unfortunately (if they're actually cutting back on those features, I don't pay that close attention). "Eisener award nominee" probably doesn't lead to any fiscally significant increase in clicks / revenue.

It's nice that this will be released and available for those who want to see it in this fashion, but this sort of thing sort of puzzles me. It's one thing to have some photographs and a stills that looked good in b&w, but the movie entire evidently wasn't made with black-and-white in mind. I can understand it being

Well, I'd argue that love isn't necessarily a constant, and can get warped, so I actually think inconsistent is a fair description (people tend to be inconsistent), I just wouldn't take it as an inherent negative. I do agree that she seemed to eventually lean toward wanting him to be seen as something she didn't

Oh snap(e)!
