I never thought I'd enjoy watching Keanu Reeves interview James Cameron so much, but here we are.

I watch that movie every few years and like it less each time - it sits in that weird limbo between intentional camp and unintentional camp, which is an exhausting place to spend two-plus hours. Like, casting Jeffrey Jones as a character named Eddie Barzoom who gets murdered in Central Park by homeless guys with…

To my knowledge one of the only movies to have Slayer on the soundtrack. And really, if you're soundtracking adolescent nihilism, every other band is just fake Slayer.

I've posted this secondhand story before, but my brother in law saw him at a hotel bar and went over and said he was a fan, so Keanu bought him a drink, chatted with him for a few minutes about my niece and nephew, and then politely excused himself. Dude's got class.

What's really striking in this video is how his performances get better as he gets older and more deliberate with his body and voice. It seems like he took some of that physical discipline from his Matrix choreography and applied it to his performing style in general.

Fact: Sam Worthington is 1000% more appealing as a blue CGI man-cat.

His stilted, stilted, stilted delivery of his very first line in that movie - "Ef I mey enquiah, what happened to Mester Runfeld" - pretty much sets the tone for the whole performance. That poor character actor playing Keanu's boss acts a full circle around him with a few lines of dialog and some muttonchops.

I remember having the thought that playing as Gambit should be a lot more fun, but there were no other X-Men games around, so I sucked it up.

Mutant Apocalypse is still fairly rare as an X-Men game that let you use your powers as much as you damn well pleased.

Also, restarting the game while keeping your old character levels. Playing the first stage with an overpowering Magneto was bliss. Other small changes: flying cost less energy, and Wolverine had a "might" stat that allowed him to lift heavy things, though not as heavy as the super-strong characters.

If I unfairly lumped the women's movement with other movements that embraced identity politics, that's my mistake.

If you pee on orange snow it gets, really, really hard.

To all accounts Trump is a none-too-bright, highly impressionable tube junky, and I'm sure seeing his administration parodied on national TV colors his view of the very people that he hired.

IIRC the original came out around the same time as Kill Bill, and I actually liked it more. That opinion, like many from college, has not held up.

It's not just that. For example, the last few administrations didn't create an administrative nightmare for immigration officials and legal aliens just to prove a point during the first week.

Or a the very least he'll be strutting around in ridiculous short-pants.

He's regular grammathemagicianist!

Nobody… Nobody trumps each other anymore.

So is Dixie his wife or his daughter?

…Except the part where she's married to a billionaire and is appearing on magazine covers. She made a choice to marry the asshole, and every day she makes a choice to remain married to him. If that's harsh, so be it - my pity for birds in gold cages is very limited.
