What's always funny to me about General Wolfit in LAWRENCE OF ARABIA, is that Lawrence and Dryden thinks he's a fool and to some degree they're right, but Wolfit makes a great point that the Arabs just weren't going to sit quietly under British rule when the war ends.

McQueen was a pallbearer at Bruce Lee's funeral along with James Coburn. There's a famous picture of him looking distraught while carrying the coffin:

I thought the same thing when I saw it on video 20 years ago. Then I read Harry Knowles in the mid 2000s wrote about seeing the movie outdoors in San Francisco's North Beach, that it must have been a shock for audiences seeing the movie in 1968 and it's your run of the mill, police detective procedural and then half

As a native San Franciscan the chase is funny in that how starts on Army(Now Ceasar Chavez)street in the Bernal Heights neighborhood, then suddenly it moves miles north to Russian Hill with the famous steep hill and finally ends miles south in Guadalupe Canyon near Brisbane!

It's sad that this was Richard Marquand's last film. Even the movie's Wikipedia page states that this was the movie that killed him!

They don't have the "soap" line but Jose Ferrer's performance of that speech is fantastic:

Once he started dating the nightmare that is Ron's ex wife Tammy Two, that's when I felt bad for him.

I liked Craig in small doses.

I like Britta especially after Dan Harmon realized it was better that she really be "the worst". Chang on the other hand, went from a character I thought was really funny in the first season when he was their crazy Spanish teacher to just be a drag in subsequent ones. They just didn't know what to do with him.

Ferrell as Glenn Frey making a naked Ben Stiller eat from a dog dish has been burned in my memory since 2000. Thanks McKay!

Favorite Cordelia line(to Giles after he had been knocked out for what seems to be the tenth time on the show): "I came over here to tell Buffy to stop this craziness
and found you all unconscious - again. … I swear, one of these times
you're gonna wake up in a coma."

They both had such amazing voices.

Favorite Sledge Hammer line: "The Bill of Rights. It stinks."

I don't know. They seem pretty tight when Bruce Willis got honored by American Cinematheque in 2000 and Rickman paid tribute:

I love this song.

Still in shock. I really thought he would be around forever. 69 years old is too damn young. Listening to "The Man Who Sold the World" right now.

I loved the "Inspector" cartoons when I was a kid. Didn't know he did the voice until a few years ago.

I hate getting my socks wet so I would try to go around it. If I was 10 years younger I would try to jump over it.
