That was my assumption, but I figured I'd check if there was something I'd forgotten about the movie in the last 20 years.

What makes Johnny Mnemonic "cyber-steampunk"as opposed to just plain cyberpunk?
I had thought Britta's theme was supposed to be by either Nick Cave or Leonard Cohen, but Waits makes sense.
Wire are a far out kind of band, according to Suzanne Somers.
Caroline Munro in the Golden Voyage of Sinbad. Merciful Zeus! I walked into that movie a mere lad, and emerged with a full beard, chest hair and wearing a Viking helmet while downing tankards of mead. And I was still only 10 years old.
Yeah, I'm not sure how Selyse would react, either. My first thought was that she'd have no trouble offering up Shireen to be burned, since they've already shown she had no worries sending other family members to the pyre. (Was it her brother? Uncle? I can't remember.)
The most amazing aspect of travel in Westeros is that people can wander across a continent the size of Europe and yet be guaranteed that at some point they will run into someone they know at some secluded, out of the way spot.
Every time I see that, I think of my Aunt Delores and wonder what she's doing up at the Wall. Although considering that she's pretty badass for a 75-year-old lady, she'd fit in just fine.
A much more appropriate line would've been "um, hey, guys, what the hell happened to the ocean? Seriously, where did it go?", given that Sunnydale was established as being a coastal town back in an earlier season when Angel was going to stow away on a freighter, yet it ended its existence as a big crater in the middle…
For a movie built around a marathon speech, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington has a weirdly abrupt ending. Mr. Smith collapses with exhaustion, the bad guy leaps up and confesses to all his wrongdoing and the plucky heroine emits a loud "WAHOO!" and bam, movie over. It's a very what the hell? finale to the whole thing.
If only Pepsi could've let Matthew Weiner know that he has a lot to live, and Pepsi has a lot to give.
Alexis Knapp provides all the cover a straight guy needs to watch the first movie.
So they went to the trouble of setting up the new status quo of Peggy and Plucky Neighbor moving into one of Howard Stark's lesser used fuck pads, and now jettison that set-up almost immediately? That's a weird bit of business.
Not if I call the Luke Cage/Iron Fist team first and demand they cast her as Colleen Wing.
I think it's half and half, exactly as Adam contends. As soon as I saw it back in its theatrical run (hey, it was Sunday afternoon and raining and I had nothing else to do), I told my friend "That was a script that was written as a comedy but the director wasn't aware of that fact."
I never said I DIDN'T hold those shows to the same standard. The more Game of Thrones departs from the books, the more it looks like characters that were introduced with the assumption they would lead somewhere are going to end up being narrative dead ends. For instance, once they decided to not include Lady…
I was raised an evangelical Christian but have strayed from that course over the last decade and a half, mostly due to utter disgust with the American version of evangelical Christianity. So I'm not entirely sure if my continued adoration of 80's era alternative Christian bands like Daniel Amos, the Choir, the 77s and…
Not really the place to ask, I guess, but since it's another Yahoo! Screen show, is the AV Club going to cover Other Space?
The intro paragraphs spell out that this is a list of bands, and while Beck is indeed great, he's a solo artist and falls outside the parameters of this particular list. Apparently solo acts are being considered at a later date.
That's a great observation. I completely missed that - I had wondered if they would include a nod to Stonewall and was expecting something more overt.
