When my wife and I moved into our first apartment together, we rented a U-Haul, drove to my old place, loaded the truck, and then stopped on the way to the new place to fill it up. I used diesel, because the last time I had rented one, that’s what it used. Also because I’m an idiot. When we got to the new apartment,…
Way back in the early days of DVDs, before Blu-Ray became a thing, they released a big special edition of Speed with tons of extras and stuff. At Wal-Mart, you could also buy a set that had a bare bones dvd of Speed 2 packaged with it. The set with both movies cost one cent more than the first one by itself.
As far as an Abrams working on Star Trek goes, Stacey is a much better choice than J.J.
If there’s not already a strip club in Orlando called Fantasyland, I’d be shocked.
The ‘i’ in Kenobi in the final logo is a little silhouette of a lightsaber. Doesn’t really mean anything, but I thought it was cool.
I don’t feel like the prequel soundtracks are better than the OT, but they are great. I’d love if they dug into the archives and did complete score releases for Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith like they did with The Phantom Menace.
That fall in my 2nd grade class (I’m old), it was split about 50/50 between the kids who believed him and those who thought he was lying. May have led to one or two playground fights, which I always think about when I see people acting like idiots over their opinion on the quality of The Last Jedi.
Give him the Francis Scott Key Key!
Forget about the toilets. They refer to the complimentary hair dryers in the rooms as ‘thermal blowers’. Don’t they hear themselves saying these things outloud before it gets to the public?
We repainted our bedroom this weekend and the color we settled on was a dark grey that Valspar called ‘Dusty Lead’. You’d think paint companies would avoid that word in their products.
Looking forward to the sequel series to Yellowstone, 2034, where the Yellowstone Caldera erupts, destroying most of the western United States, and Kevin Costner turns the flowing lava away from his property line with just the power of his grizzled will.
Someone who knows how the Twitter machine works should start a campaign so the ultimate winner ends up being something that should have won Best Picture but didn’t. “And the fan-favorite award goes to.....uhhhhh....Do the Right Thing? How did that happen?”
Bill Murray’s insult to him backstage at SNL (which gave me my screenname) may be the most insightful thing that’s ever been said about him. He’s done some great stuff, no doubt, but his entire career has been a repeating theme of coasting on his initial SNL fame, followed by one hit, then coasting on that for a…
Dave and Maddie from Moonlighting deserve a mention here.
‘….smaller penises are usually just about the gag factor…’
Exactly. The only theater close enough to me to go to often is a Regal. The next closest place was an independent place that wouldn’t participate in something like this anyway. Regal’s subscription thing is great, I signed up just a few months before Covid started and will re-start it as soon as I feel like the…
‘Ooh, Ahh. That’s how it always starts, but then there’s running, and screaming.’ —Ian Malcom in The Lost World.
I like the shot of the elevator falling right after the kid jumps out, showing they’re still using elevators lifted by cable in the future, instead of anti-grav, repulsor, blah, blah tech. Also the Orville and all the other good guy ships look like someone’s idea of a futuristic intra-uterine device.
‘...we fear that this will not be the first Golden Corral Uprising we see this year.’
