Spacebabies? No movie here by that name. But I bet that would make a good cult movie.

I've seen many of these and approve most of the choices (so happy to see Cherry 2000 here!), but my list would have to include (in no particular order—because I just can't make that kind of Sophie's choice):
I'm just an armchair Egyptologist, but from all of my reading, incest wasn't just a nominal practice for Egyptian royalty nor was it something only confined to the heretic Akhenaton (who was only thought heretical in his belief in a single god, not in his marriage practices), it was an actual and fairly common…
It was funny, but when Astrid kissed John on the cheek after their bonding experience, I crowed, "Oh boy, the 'shippers are going to have a field day with this!" Thing is, I now count myself among them; I can totally get behind an Astrid-John relationship, especially considering the nonexistence of any kind of…
I wish they'd gone with the alien opera singer design shown here. It has a stronger otherworldly flavor to it, slightly creepy but still beautiful. To echo others who've posted, I wish Besson would return to the world he created with his collaborators and make more movies—it's so rich with so many story…
Well, hey now, this is interesting! I sent FOX an email complaining about the out-of order episode run. This was the response I got: "We aired the episodes in the order the producers wanted." Show of hands: Who believes that?
Good lord, I knew FOX had majorly screwed the pooch as far as episode order, but that is ridiculous! I mean, what should've been episode four airing as episode ten? Jesus. I fully believe all FOX executives have their heads up their asses and, in fact, can't even get hired at the network unless they're able to…
See, this is why sharks are just the absolute best! They are the most amazing animals on earth and I would've loved to have been with that diver, swimming amidst that school of scalloped hammerheads. What a fabulous video!
That was my sentiment, at first. Then I thought, Fuck that! To all Creationists, I say:
I watch this any time it comes on TV, especially when the marathons run during the Fourth of July holiday. It doesn't matter at what point I come in at, I will watch it through to the end. At this point, I'm sure I know every single word of the damn thing.
Gosh, I am so sorry! So, when you're in earshot of these fellow pet people who dare to refer to themselves in a paternal manner, what does it do to you? Profuse nosebleeds? No? Ooh, explosive diarrhea then. No, again? Oh, gosh, not.... cancer? Really, not that either? Well, butter my butt and call me a…
I don't know. The Flanders scream is pretty close to what I was hearing my head.
That moment when Moira says "I'd like you to meet Slade Wilson" and he says "Hello, Mr. Queen", I literally squealed like a full grown man squealing at something (and not, I maintain, like a schoolgirl). I cannot wait for next week's episode!
Right there with you, dude! Granted, it's not perfect and maybe I'm not smart enough to see what everybody's nitpicking on, but I absolutely love this show (and would probably love it even more had FOX not dicked around and shown episodes out of order—thank god for Blu-ray sets!). I love the whole retro future…
I know. While they can redub the dialog, there's nothing they can do about her mouth when she says the original line. Which kind of makes it even funnier.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
Anne of Green Gables was and remains my favorite book and series; I wanted to be Anne, even down to her despised red hair, so I find myself looking at people in terms of "kindred spirits." Lucky you, having a librarian for a mom! My mom wasn't (except maybe of our home library), though my older sister became one; it…
Armchair musicians can say anything they like, but that. Was. AWESOME! I know others have posted this, but the sheng has to be the inspiration for the NES sound system. Otherwise, how could you explain the near-identical sounds?
A kindred spirit, perhaps? Ooh, yeah, I learned early on never to lend my books to friends. Not from a firsthand experience like yours, thank goodness, but from my mom, from whom I got my love of books and reading. She had an experience like yours, which made her say to me years later, "DON'T DO IT!" But congrats…
