‘Thank you for eating at White Castle. Fill out the survey at the bottom of your receipt and tell us if you’ve seen Sarah Connor to get a code for a free small fry on your next visit!’

So it really IS Horrors Week here at the AV Club, isn’t it?

Carte Blanche like Shane Black got for Iron Man 3 so he ended it with Tony destroying all his suits and giving up the Iron Man life? Then there he is in Age of Ultron flying around and there’s one quick line that’s basically, ‘Nah.’ That kind of Carte Blanche?

I watched this documentary the other night about a joint Russian/American mission to Jupiter in 2010 and they ended up having to split the crews up. It got kind of weird after that.

I don’t have a joke here, but for the last 20 years, every time I read about Phil Collins I think of this:

Your mileage may vary depending on your love of the show, but as a die-hard Wingnut, I was completely enthralled from beginning to end. When a shot near the end cut from the staged production to footage from the original episode, it was so seamless I didn’t even notice it for a few seconds. Sterling Brown was…

You’re right.  The numbers will be in.  But how long will the lawyers fight over them?  Remember it wasn’t over in the 200o election until mid-December, and I’m afraid this will be WAAYY worse.

Trump is going to crow about the ratings for a few days because the numbers for his town hall will almost certainly top Biden’s. Even though a lot of the people watching Biden will trend younger and be watching on non-traditional forms of TV that aren’t tracked by Nielsen.

Ha!  As if there will be election results by Thanksgiving!!  Good one!

A couple of years ago I started a “Read all of Shakespeare in a Year’ list, and it was going fine for the first two months or so. Then I realized I had stopped reading and was just looking at each word with little comprehension or retention. I threw out the ‘in a year’ part and just followed the list at my own pace,…

Elf on the Shelf comes in a close second to Pumpkin Spice on the ‘Seasonal Things White People Love That Inexplicably Annoy the Crap Out Of Me’

‘...Operation Christmas Drop, which is not, as its title would suggest, a Christmas-themed reboot of the Bill Murray classic...’ I’m assuming you’re referring to Operation Dumbo Drop here, which did not star Bill Murray. However, Bill Murray did later star in Larger than Life, which featured an elephant named Tai who…

‘two complex consumer marketing tie-ins” with McDonalds and Crown Royal,’

Remember all those jokes in 2001 about W having to sanitize the Oval Office after Bill Clinton left?  Funny how the world turns, huh?

Looks like a quick shot of Trashy there with the guy hauling something up out of an underground bunker.  Not a close look at him, though.  

Makes perfect sense to me. The Clamp character in The New Batch was a pretty direct take-off on Trump anyway.

It counts.  Released to theaters still showing it with instructions to display it on May 25, 1976 only.  For just that day.  When I win the lottery, I’m hunting one of these down. 

The best part of the book (and also the movie) was Wolfe contrasting the Mercury 7 astronaut’s stories with those of other test pilots who either didn’t make the cut or weren’t qualified to try out in the first place, Chuck Yeager being the most prominent one. This review doesn’t make any mention of that subplot, so…

Love that ad and watch it all the time.  Too bad it was better than the game it was advertising.
