Looks like - and like The Grounding of Group Six, both seem to be popular with teenagers!

What bothers me about Ghosts of Mars is that it's Yet Another Assault on Precinct Thirteen retread from Carpenter, @avclub-6e87bfc5ac7ef7ef7ef092edc06c3bb6:disqus and @Fancyarcher:disqus.

This movie, which seemed almost impossibly nasty when it first came out—watching it almost felt like an illegal act—somehow helped lay the groundwork for a series of young-adult novels and blockbuster movies that would challenge Harry Potter’s dominance. How did that happen?

They just had to edit out all the scenes of Anthony Hopkins busting out his kung-fu - and then eating everybody he killed.

America had never seen anything like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Cronenberg has yet to do a Director's Commentary for Scanners, even for the Criterion version (which I own on Blu-Ray, in addition to the UK Blu), @Fancyarcher:disqus . When I wrote Criterion to ask why, they said he flat-out refused to record one - unlike his other movies, where he's quite voluble about what works…

Wow, was it that long ago, @leewo:disqus ?

You want to bet Escape From LA is John Carpenter's Scanners, @Fancyarcher:disqus ? The one movie the normally loquacious director categorically refuses to do a commentary on, because it was all such a mess…?

T is going to love this - it's one of her favorite movies!

It is indeed, @disqus_2kC9kwTnrP:disqus - and we can thank all those Hollywood fundraisers for things like the DMCA or the Copyright Extension Act of 1998.

$5 for a Filet-O-Fish sandwich, @avclub-6c6094f256f51e83fe02bce6091163e7:disqus ? WTF?

"Harry -You're All Right!

Yeah, we just started getting Aldi up here in NY State, @avclub-6c6094f256f51e83fe02bce6091163e7:disqus - and Price Rite and ShopRite (they're the same chain, it's just Price Rite is more like Aldi's and ShopRite is a regular supermarket) are largely in the Northeast (the furthest West any get are Allentown, PA).

Although Billy Bob Thorton might not like him too much for how he was directed to play "Madcap" in Tombstone, @scaryklown:disqus .

Try PriceRite, @avclub-6c6094f256f51e83fe02bce6091163e7:disqus - they sell Pork Shoulder for $.89/lb. normally.

Because the copyright holders, which are usually Distribution Companies rather than the artists themselves, want to make sure you pay for every time you watch their movie, @disqus_2kC9kwTnrP:disqus ! Because far as they're concerned, you don't have any rights to that DVD or Blu-Ray disc you bought, even if the Courts…

Thanks for the heads-up, @disqus_KMKe0tqoWs:disqus !

Well, @avclub-f365c0cee72aa186f5a6e0b174cfc256:disqus - just say what Ole Jack Burton says at a time like this….

Who could, @anxie:disqus ?

I think @clannister:disqus just TOMBSTONE'd! you, @anxie:disqus .
