I had that thought about Snoke, too, and all I can say is, man, I hope not. One of the things I enjoy about Andor is that it’s not constantly doing callbacks to other stuff.

That’s certainly what I thought.

Bubba Ho-Tep, too.

Didn’t sound anything like Latin to me. Latin wouldn’t make sense, anyway, since it didn’t exist until the 7th Century B.C.E. or slightly earlier, when it diverged from Faliscan (now extinct). Even proto-Indo-European, Latin’s common ancestor with other Indo-European languages (Celtic, Germanic, Balto-Slavic,…

That’s the entire concept of The Man In The High Castle. (Well that and PKD’s usual “What is reality?” stuff.)

I thought she was engorged on flesh.

Hitchcock isn’t exactly clean.

That’s H-O-L-T.

Why? No witnesses left but his sister.

It was clearly the same — everything in that timeline is green: clothes, lentils, milk boxes, etc. There was an incident that left him paralyzed from the waist down and then he went back on his meds for good.

They recreated that set for the Kubrick show at LACMA some years ago — I wonder if that’s it.

(Vitali was a teenager during 2001's production, anyway.)

Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping is underrated.

Spaceballs is okay, but compare it to Young Frankenstein, or Blazing Saddles, or The Producers. Not even close.
