This... just because the portions are small doesn’t mean you leave hungry. The courses are usually spread out far enough that you feel satiated, but you also don’t feel like you’re about to burst either.

There’s also the fact that the Pink Ladies were kind of... not very nice people. They were basically an exclusionary high school clique.  No, they weren’t flat out evil villains, but they would be the antagonists in any high school movie set in the 1980s or later.

Lets just call it an entertaining movie whose flaws become more apparent the older you get.

Yeah, I seem to recall both Tin Cup and that other “hidden gem” Open Range being on TV quite often for periods of time.

I had this book as assigned reading on three separate occasions during my schooling.  Although I like the movie, Kinsella’s “baseball as religion” theme gets more annoying with each subsequent read, especially if you’re not really a fan of the sport.

As a western fan, I agree with you. Tombstone is too much of a 90s action movie for me.

I was surprised to see Open Range listed as a “hidden gem”, since it seemed to be on TV all the time at one point. I saw it in theaters, mainly because I in my pre-fatherhood days, I never missed a western. TV really lost some of the scope of those early scenes of Costner, Duvall and... that other guy who was on ER,…

That's how I remember it.

If I recall, the actor who played Mercutio really stole the movie.

9th grade for us too, but honestly, the bried bit of nudity barely registered.

Can we also become fluent in pirate-speak? We'll need something to keep ourselves entertained.

I guess my dad was right to buy all those 8mm copies of popular films back in the pre-VCR days.

Yeah, they can't lose money on a licensing fee for properties that were paid for decades ago, so without that tax write-off, we're probably not seeing these cartoons streaming again for a long time.

Look up how many of their shows were about mystery-solving teens with a whacky animal side kick. The list goes surprisingly deep, and that was just in the 70s.

Was Coal Black and de Seben Dwahves included?

Side-note, but growing up a Philadelphia kid, where Acme is an actual grocery chain, it always confused me why the Looney Tunes always bought everything from Acme and not any of the other stores. And when I went to Acme with my mom, I could never find the aisle where they sold dynamite, anvils, mallets, bear and rat…

Well, he’s overall a fine actor, but I don’t think anyone shed a tear when we learned Timothy Dalton wasn’t returning.

They missed their chance at Iris Elba, so there goes the leading candidate.

He played some asshole British lieutenant in Sharpe.

I don’t know, I thought A Scandal in Belgravia and The Hounds of Baskerville from series 2 were two of the best episodes. And even though The Reichenbach Fall had its issues, it also gave us plenty of Andrew Scott as Moriarty, which more than made of for some of the weaknesses of the episode.
