You have to admit, the Cleansing was a shockingly non-impactful armageddon.

DEFUSION! Defusion! NOT diffusion! You defuse a bomb, goddamnit! "Diffuse" is "spread out"!

Yeah! Champagne!

I named you after Donald Trump.

"The spirit of music is inside all of you."
"Not me, I bathe."

Crow doing the duck quack every time the door opens is almost as good a running gag as "Blast Hardcheese."

The "it's funny" becomes hilarious later when you hear "she's drunk" echoing in Jimmy's sleepy head, and Crow quietly echoes "It's funny!"

She says, "He's no monster, Gaston, you are!" When you see his immediate reaction, he's clearly infuriated by her rejection, and the whole town hears her say it. It's always seemed pretty clear to me that his decision is all about impressing everybody, only it's lapsed from narcissism into mania. When he's screaming

He did an amazing Olbermann a number of years ago. Now that Olbermann's back - in GQ form - let's get Affleck back.

If we knew in the first act that Theron was Pearce's daughter, that would generate tension between her and David and make clearer some of her decisions… but what if it were

Honestly? The flick is about life as death-in-waiting; the Engineers understand that, as their creation of life early in the film is self-immolating. When Weyland wants to live forever, he's killed in response. There's also a sub-theme of children as predatory (the humans as Engineer's ungrateful brats, Shaw's

What?! You bite your tongue. "Potato Chip Thief," "Maine Justice," "Two Assholes," his ESPN commentator, Jon Bovi - and the highlight of those "Scared Straight" sketches. He was often in the role of utility player, but he could mix it up.

32nd anniversary, not 34th ; "Ghostbusters" released in 1984.

…but why male models?
