He really is. The scene when hes trying to impress the kid by showing off all their cool little lab gadgets and spinning a story about shampoos, and the kid not having any of it, is pretty damn great.

Mad props for Maury Chaykin (RIP) and Eddie Deezen.

And that scene, even 30+ years on, is still incredibly terrifying.

The bits of him researching Falken, like going to the library and reading his books and scanning old news stories about him, is a really good fictional version of how hacking works. Also, the password list at the school, which I'm willing to bet is not that different even now.

You know, looking back…this movie has a serious-ass cast. Broderick, Wood, Barry Corbin, Coleman, Sheedy; that's a really solid cast.

Agreed. Which makes it all the better at how damn likable Rich Sommer is when he pops up in interviews and podcasts.

I can't find evidence if this actually existed, but there were Daredevil and Hulk HIV comics:

Grover hosting Upstairs Downstairs and running up and down the stairs each time. "Upstairs!' *runs up* "Downstairs!" *runs down* A very simply joke that still delights me.

A good point. But it also seemed like they avoided doing it in general.

I forgot who Lennon said made the suggestion, but they were absolutely right about how Reno works better with the cast not also playing the perpetrators.

No Stoker? Weird.

Whereas I think it's one of his best and finally someone figured out how to use Mia Wasikowska.

Or, you know, they could sell what we are willing to give them money for.

So….still the crappy editions? Nope.

Oh good, tomorrow is going to be a tense wondering of how high Under The Skin, Stoker and Upstream Color will rise.

Who didn't who wasn't playing for or coaching Duke?

Oh they're just pouring in with their beards and caps and snakes! Oh wait, those are the hipsters in Wicker Park.

Next of Kin fascinates me as a Chicagoan and as a movie with a ton of actors just before they broke.

Time to show her Sam Elliott in Frogs.

It's almost as powerful as Joel Quenneville's moustache.
