Go out like Dewey Cox, dying three minutes after your lifetime achievement award. 

You know, I thought the person who gave me my first vaccine dose looked a lot like Glenn Close. Making me watch Hillbilly Elegy during my 15 minute post-shot wait should have tipped me off.

Elwes seems to have better luck on TV these days. 

This series has hired some of the most memorable actors in movies - McDormand, Hopkins, Malkovich, Tucci - and yet the only human characters who jump to mind are Julie White's drug binge in the second one and Jack Reynor's weirdly proud seducer of teenagers in the dinosaur one.

Odenkirk is only a year older than Jet Li. Sort of makes me wonder how Jet Li would do with one of Odenkirk's middle aged sad sack roles.

It’s a New Mutants situation. Interesting.

Splice in footage of the 1978 movie, where Simon is played by Manimal himself. 

They really should have dumped this thing on streaming before the accusations grew even worse and when it mostly would have blended in with a flood of other releases. Ironically, Hammer now seems like perfect casting for a character who the world sees as a handsome jerk who used and abused people to get what he

I was surprised watching The Princess Diaries 2 that there's a whole scene where they swoon over a picture of William. I had forgotten that was a whole thing back then. 

Delroy Lindo, Ving Rhames, Ben Kingsley, Woody Harrelson . . . 

She shows up constantly on any crime drama or light drama or anthology show on any of the retro TV stations (your MeTVs). And she always, always classes up the joint. 

The moment when they learn that the company has given into their demands because they've been bought out and their agreement is worthless is one of the bigger gut punches I can remember on a sitcom. Just so brutally realistic. 

Season 1 is rough. The supporting characters haven't gotten any layers yet and everyone is just one character trait over and over, where characters like Dina get surprising sides and moments of humanity later on. 

Having just watched Eurovision I have to say I approve of Pierce Brosnan's silver fox phase. As long as he doesn't keep the "evil nineteenth century gentleman" look pictured here. 

I went into Shazam with dread (the trailer was not promising) but it's become one of my favorite of this generation of superhero movies. It's a fun movie but it also has an enormous heart, like the first Donner Superman or the first MCU Captain America movie.

Burns assuming that It’s a Wonderful Life ends with Jimmy Stewart’s suicide made me laugh (he would identify with Mr. Potter, of course). Maude was indeed shockingly grinchy here. It felt so out of character.

I always think of Berenger in The Big Chill, where he’s quietly perfect casting as an actor stuck on a Magnum, P.I.-style show. 

I could have sworn her name was right beside Douglas on the poster but she is, of course, completely right. I seem to be remembering the home video release. She’s not even billed above the title on the original American poster. I know Douglas was a huge star at the time but she’s absolutely the reason people saw it.

Maybe just because I have been rewatching Brooklyn 99 but Rosa and anyone else. Rosa and Amy? One never shows excitement, the other is all pent up nervous energy. Rosa and Boyle (after they drop his creepy stalking behavior)? Perfect toughie/softie combo. Rosa and Jake? Gives no crap about other's opinions vs.

I have a soft spot for this movie. Being a gay horror buff growing up in the 90s will do that to you. But I rewatched it recently and it is badly hamstrung by Sheffer’s performance. Dude was hunky as all get out but so wooden here.
