Hey so like I know we've been killing all are super-secret soldiers to cover our asses… but lemme tell you about this super-SUPER-secret soldier we've got locked in a box over here!

Have you tried punching the sign in the face?

He's also the hatchet-wielding specter who menaces Cusack in 1408

I'll be comin round the mountain when I coooome
I'll be comin round the mountain when I coooome
I'll be blowin your fuckin brains out I'll be blowin your fucking brains out I'll be WHACKIN YOUR FUCKIN MIND OUT when I coooome! POPCORN! deetdeetdeetdeetdeetdeetdeet

It's a fantastic role - it's the type of role that really could have been shot in a day (like, three or four short scenes + phone smashing). But his presence helps give the plotline a narrative consistency - necessary for a film that bounces from comedy to drama to shoot-'em'up to musical-nostalgia-romance. Arkin…

Save me a dance?

It took me forever to realize that in during the first few verses of the song, Cogsworth literally gets baked into a dish (the pudding he lands into while shouting "MUSIC!!"). It was done to replace the original animation, which had Lumiere burning Maurice's mustache instead

Counterpoint: he walks off with Beverly Hills Cop II within the space of two minutes

Mark… Pellington… crowd-pleaser? You allude to this in the review, but, like, fucking Arlington Road. And his following films. I'm really surprised and may check this out now, to see how he delivers the happy

Theo's stressed out about that final lock, and Hans is like, "don't worry, buddy!" He coulda just said "Step 10 is when the FBI shuts down the building and the last lock opens!" Not too hard, and your…

AH-HE-HE-HE-HE

he signed himself up for this fate

Also, his baffled reaction to Cruise stealth-rolling into the wheels of a Humvee:
"What the hell were you thinking?…."

LET'S PLAY DARTS!

The entire cabinet, for or against the 25th, was holding their mud in the back half of that season. I feel like at some point this just becomes a euphemism for something

It's why Donald Sutherland gave the season a hard pass, and why Cromwell really didn't seem to give a shit about the role he was getting boxed into

Well hot damn, below is an article I just found while doing a Google search to figure out if they had previously said, "Held my mud" in 24 (was certain they did, after reading this). And of course it was from the beautiful prose that tapestried Season 6:
