It lost me at all the slide puzzles, but I quite enjoyed the moment when he used a tetronimo to repeatedly stab a dude in the chest.

The Armed - Ultrapop (April 16). I’ll be curious how it turns out--I preferred the pure hardcore of Untitled more than the art-noise of Only Love (which sounds like 2 separate albums being played at the same time to me). I wouldn’t mind something between the two.

I’m on board. Their EPs are great. 

Giant Sand rerecorded their first two albums and I got both, but probably because I never had the originals to begin with.

I used to live in Astoria, Queens. A Mr Softee truck would park in front of my house for hours and play the jingle non-stop every day in the summer. Drove me nuts. There’s a law that you can only play the music while the ice cream truck is moving, but none of the drivers cared and it was never enforced.

Joel Edgerton’s career has always baffled me. Hollywood keeps trying to make him a thing. He’s this generation’s Eric Bana.

“Jim - Regular Human Jedi” just isn’t as funny in a galaxy filled with hundreds of sapient species.

The new Tomahawk album is solid. It’s their first album in 8 years, but they haven’t missed a step.

I saw it opening night as well. It was just a few days before my 16th birthday, so I was the perfect age for it. The whole theater was super into the movie, though I think the loudest applause was when the dog jumped to safety under the bridge in the nick of time.

Reminds me of Wing Commander III. One of the options was either “Forgive him” or “Punch the son of a bitch”.  We never found out what happens if you forgive him. (Besides, who could resist some FMV of Mark Hamill punching John Rhys Davies?)

I found Jackson’s Kong bloated and overlong, but good god is the T-Rex fight amazing. I started giggling with delight when it turned into a Thunderdome-esque bungee battle amongst the vines. 

Pretty much the entirety of Independence Day.

I once had a friend get pissed off at me for spoiling the end of Planet of the Apes (the original, of course) by singing Troy McClure’s song from the Apes musical in The Simpsons. An episode he had already seen. I was befuddled on multiple levels.

Pat Kiernan. Anyone from NYC knows who I’m talking about. The rest of you don’t know you’ve seen him playing himself in a bunch of movies (several of which are MCU).

#2 is basically the final act of Cast Away.

You’re fighting a losing battle. Once Merriam-Webster defined “literally” to mean “figuratively”, words stopped mattering altogether.

That sort of direction led to Carrie Fisher’s obituary request: that she was “drowned in moonlight, strangled by her own bra”.

Oral. The dude did it so much it gave him--and cured him of--cancer.

The way you worded it, I interpreted it as Stacy Dash playing the role of Jon Voight, which sounds morbidly intriguing.

The 2004 film Mind the Gap has a character who was conceived through rape.  She’s a decent person, but the film doesn’t shy away from her mother’s trauma. (It’s kind of a treacly film notable only for being Alan King’s final role. He’s the best part of the movie.)
