As long as you're going to show all this footage of suppositions about the Soviets blowing up the Statue of Liberty, you may as well throw in the first one, the footage that all of these people echo when they do their work:

Congrats to Charlie Jane for the win!

This crew you served with, Esther, could easily pass for professionals.

And this is really news how? Hell, *I* have an FBI file, and I've been published with an body of work close to 2.3% of Ray's output. As noted below, it'd be a bigger story if he didn't have a file; the only real interesting part is that Martin Berkeley was outed as a narc.

Would it have been better to see a lot more non-slave Leias there? Yes of course, but let's keep one thing in mind: This is Orlando in August, so for the sake of self-preservation, I could see why having as little to stifle you on as possible would be an attractive option...

This is turning into a tough week. First Joe Kubert, now Harry Harrison.

Talk about leaving this world with a bang...

Oh, I think I could imagine worse...

Well, I dunno about GIFs and memes, but the threat of the project did produce some interesting ephemera...

OK, one obvious omission: When Apple looked at optioning THE LORD OF THE RINGS as the last film commitment the Beatles needed to fill, which would have had John as Golum, Paul as Frodo, George as Gandalf and Ringo as Samwise. Talk about dodged artillery, for *all* concerned...

Well, that's a few years of therapy devoted to dealing with arachnophobia, now all shot to hell...

I'm not sure I'm interested in this piece.

Not a chance: Fox wants their own franchise and would never allow Disney to take over, which is mighty likely if there were ever discussions between the two aboout an Avengers/X-Men crossover on film.

Come to think about it, considering that knights were mostly armed thugs between 850 and 1200 or so, when the idea of chivalry was adopted as a means to both keep these lugs in line and justify allowing people that heavily armed riding around the countryside, you could make the argument that they were *really* getting

Wow, nice. Thanks for sharing that.

"And soon enough, the cops may have the ability to tell the future."

As much as I sympathize with Director Fury, the person with an even worse job in that organization has to be the head of HR; for every incident Fury needs to write a memo about, there have to be at least three more that are both more damning and stupider that the crud that drew the Director's attention...

"Kenneth Branagh ushers in that Industrial Revolution with some choice quotes from Shakespeare's The Tempest while dressed as engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel."

I'm not sure I'd use the word "evolved" in this case. The fact that they moved back from the original name when the initial outcry came up faster than a threatened lobster, I'd be more inclined to call this a "devolution" here...

And as we discuss this matter here, the folks at Metahsven seem to have done a bit more work on this with Facestate:
