Yes, but it’s an exceptionally poor adaptation of the original Devo song.

It takes a lot for me to trust rumors that a woman is difficult to work with, because it usually just means “not a total doormat.”

That would have been a pretty stunning revelation about the character!

I continue to detest the bit where he tosses around Thor’s hammer like it’s nothing, thus invalidating the whole cool buildup where nobody else is worthy to handle the thing.

Not nearly enough stars. Not only is your post on topic, but also it kinda reads like a Kids in the Hall sketch.

Off the top of my head, I can think of four novels that I’ve read more-or-less in a single sitting:

The Old Man and the Sea (Ernest Hemingway, 1951)

Pretty sure the “with extra lobster” thing is already covered by the broadly applicable phrase “egg in your beer,” unless you want “with extra lobster” to apply only to sexual scenarios.

Am I really the first commenter to note that this was the concept of Waxwork way before there was such a thing as Night at the Museum?

Samara

Eh, La La Land was hardly an experimental indie in need of protection...

If it’s the person’s choice, why have a default of Mrs. or Mr., rather than the default being “ask before addressing them as anything”? Do your children get to dictate how adults address them? And why apply this policy only to adults and not to other children?

I think the most reasonable way to make Dracula relevant for contemporary audiences would be - and it almost sickens me to say this - to do it as a modern found footage story, capturing something of the epistolary style of the novel.

Re: the Godzilla (1998) credit, that one is a technicality based on union rules. Rossio and Elliott wrote a script that Jan De Bont was going to direct. When De Bont left the project and Devlin and Emmerich took over, they tossed that script and started more-or-less from scratch.

Agreed on both counts. The enthusiasm people are demonstrating for Aquaman is baffling to me. At least with this Joker flick, I am anxious to walk into a theater and see just what it is they’re actually doing.

Replace “may” with “must” and I think we have a winner!

Dawn of the Dead’s US release date was about 10 1/2 years after Night of the Living Dead’s.

This was my immediate thought.

You missed half of the “Holy crap” joke (granted, you missed the half that reduces it from a jab at religion to just a cheap pun): it takes him not just to the church, but to the church’s bathroom.

Letter writer is right to object to people changing diapers in the dining room, but proves total lack of worth as a human being with use of phrase “Little Miss Perfect or Little Mister Perfect” (since this insults not just the parents but the babies, who are innocent in this situation), and with the snobbish…

In my experience, “You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain” has entered the lexicon primarily as an example of dialogue being employed to bludgeon home a thematic point in condescending detail.

The other lines you cite? Classics. That one? It’s become a joke.
