If Luke would have done what Yoda and Obi-Wan wanted him to do, his friends would have died

Ignatiy is back?  Can’t wait for a truly terrible movie to come of for him to eviscerate.

I watched the film version of  M*A*S*H before I ever really paid attention to the TV show, and I have to say, I like his not-suitable-for-primetime-TV version of Hawkeye better than Alan Alda’s.  Although having been in the army, working with someone like him would have been absolutely infuriating.

The movie also provides a nice little snap shot in time of post-unification Berlin when it was still in its Bohemian stage. 

That sounds like what the Ottomans would have said when they were kidnapping Slavic children to turn them into the Janissaries.

I mean, anyone expecting a hard-hitting documentary about Jim Henson is going to be disappointed. Other than being kind of an absentee father and husband (which Idea Man fully addresses), his life and works simply weren’t controversial.

I’ve never read the book, but dear God, that all sounds even worse than I imagined! Sounds like book Hooper is more like Dreyfuss in real life than movie Hooper.  And Brody in the movie, in my opinion, is one of the best Everyman dad characters in cinema.

Yeah, Jaws, The Godfather and Die Hard regularly make the top of the list for movies that were a huge improvement over their adapted source. Changing Hooper’s personality was one of many good choices they made for the film, although I think it would have been poignant if he did in fact die and Brody ended up being the…

The budget issues may have been real, but he’s the only one who comes across negatively in the interviews. It’s not just the complaining, his tone is scolding and sanctimonious. Weird, because he plays Hooper as an easy-going, very likeable guy in the movie. Switch to real life, though, the mask comes off and you see…

He was ranting about everything when he was young too.

I know almost nothing of the Cure’s music, but those base chords and weird whistling noises at the beginning of the song are instantly recognizable to me, thanks to The Crow soundtrack.

I agree with you, but there is one insidious difference between McDonald’s food and a vegan salad, even if the total calories are the same.  Fast food generally has a high glycemic index, which means unless you immediately go and work out, it provokes a large insulin surge, which makes you hungry again much quicker. …

During races, professional cyclists eat a gel that’s almost pure sugar to prevent their body from metabolizing muscle protein into glucose.

How many other mid-century New York real estate developers can you name? The only reason Donald Trump became and remained famous was he was always a self-promoting publicity whore.  Otherwise, he would have probably barely been remembered as that guy whose casinos in Atlantic City took on too much debt.

Now, are you gonna buy some wigs or ain’t ya?

If Dick Dale never covered this, he should have.

I think The Munsters became “classic” because like Gilligan’s Island, McHale’s Navy, Gomer Pyle USMC, and Bewitched, reruns were daytime TV staples for local UHF channels from the 70s until maybe the 90s. The kind of show you watched when you were home from school on a sick day, not because it was something you loved,…

“in contrast to many of the other aspects of Canadiana that feel weirdly false in this New York-shot setting.” Really? With all the times Toronto has stood in for whatever US city the plot needs, they couldn’t actually film this in Canada?

So, to what use did they put this building now that the hotel concept died?  Staff breakroom?  Storage facility? Office space?  

Nope, I knew it because when I first saw him in a movie (The Ref), I thought his performance was wooden. Nothing magical about it, or special about having an opinion, Snarky Internet Person.
