Junior and senior year of high school, my two best friends and I probably communicated 60% in Clerks quotes.

I love “Uglatto!”

Well, now I gotta go back and freeze frame that, because I’m dying to see which Devo track was listed!

EDIT: Oh, it’s posted just below! I would not have expected “Uglatto”! That’s a very deep cut!

My immediate thought was that they’d likely be skipping over anything where she contributed to the Satanic Panic, but you’re right, she has a lot of other sins still to answer for.

The script was fundamentally flawed, but matters could have at least been improved by some imaginative direction. So much of the movie is staged, shot and edited in a purely perfunctory way that I found myself genuinely distracted by the blandness.

Also, the best Star Wars movies have stories. The full title of that flick was misleading. I think “Solo: A Star Wars Plot” or “Solo: A Star Wars Sequence of Events” would have been a lot more accurate than “A Star Wars Story.”

No matter how otherwise half-baked a Davies episode was, he (almost) always made sure that there was some kind of emotional story thread for the companion that ran through it. That meant that even the weaker usually episodes remained compelling, even when they weren’t terribly good overall.

My elementary school had one hour of silent reading time every day, during which we were not assigned any particular books; we just had free run of the shelves, or anything we wanted to bring in from home, so long as we read something.

I believe he’s generally focused more on a theater career than on film.

I’m a big fan of The Motion Picture. I get that it doesn’t feel like traditional “Star Trek” in some ways, but philosophically it’s very much of a piece with the series, and I honestly find the slow, steady rhythm kind of... pleasantly hypnotic, I guess.

Call me crazy, but I stand by Search for Spock as well.

Alec Guinness, the one actual movie star in the cast

Exact same thing happened to me. Fortunately, my wife was not spoiled, so I was able to enjoy the reveal vicariously through her.

Not so much “edgy” as “crotchety.”

If I’m being perfectly honest, I never really got the appeal of Godfather 2, either. It always struck me as a collection of individually good scenes that doesn’t really coalesce into a meaningful whole. :-)

The second movie offered a ray of hope that we didn’t need, because we already had that ray of hope in the original Terminator. T2 was as unnecessary as it was overwrought and artless. T3 seems to have been born of a conflict between those who wanted to restore the dignity of the original and those who wanted to…

Oh, wow! This is the first time you guys have run anything about a movie I worked on! I was post production supervisor on this, and handled cutting it down for the shorter version CNN will be airing!

Yeah, when I wrote my response, I was coming from a place of irritation with the chauvinistic attitudes that can be associated with sex-based social norms, without really thinking about context. I realized awhile after posting that I might have come across as some “all lives matter”/MRA jackass. Sorry if it read that…

“No person has a right to raise a hand to a person in anger, other than in self-defense.”

You realize that’s exactly what aye kinja be a cruel mistress indeed’s post is saying, right?
