As Steve Martin once said, "It's hard to keep a marriage together in Hollywood because we sleep with so many people."

The Knick is back — in Pog form!

Yeah, WB will probably license it to CC sooner or later—Crash would sell infinitely better as a Criterion title than as a plain-vanilla WB Blu-ray, plus CC already as a commentary track from the old Laserdisc.

It's barely a series at all, but just an excuse to have a pre-existing product to tie on to random Tom Cruise action vehicles. I mean, without titles, watch 1, 2, and 5, and if the character hadn't been named "Ethan Hunt," there's no way you would know that they were "sequels."

I suggest that they dispense with the alleged "story" and just make it an anthology of short films of Ethan Hunt doing the 3-4 giant set pieces that some poor writer would otherwise have to try to string together into a narrative.

It was teased in this month's newsletter clue. Should be announced in the next 1-2 months.

Rights are with Warner Bros, who got Fine Line films when New Line was folded in. Turner never personally had the rights, he was just a major WB shareholder/board member when Crash came out and was hilariously vocal about it.

She makes me wish I had three hands.

Therefore, welcome to the first of a series of monthly dispatches on what’s coming soon from The Criterion Collection.

They could be named Michael Phelps but they're still gonna lose.

It’s tough to say how this will all shake out,

Not that I think the "Black and Chrome" edition is going to be my bag, but if you did want to see it, I think that just de-saturating your colors would be like listening to the Stereo version of Sgt. Pepper with your receiver set to "mono" and thinking that you were hearing the original mono mix.

Also, if you have kids (like me), you don't want to be scrimping on the machine that's raising them.

I was a late bloomer….

No - is it worse?

Dreamcatcher might be the worst book I've ever read. I was sure that King was trying to inflict the pain of his accident recovery on his readers.

So you read it when you were about 20 years old too?

Well, after Lawrence v. Texas, atrocious sucking of ass is no longer a crime.

Ginny Coppola realizes that once you extend the curfew, next thing you know the kids are gonna play some pool, skip some school, act real cool, and stay out all night.

Well, the target was really hard. They needed a sequel to hit it.
