    Its so exciting to discover that the expansive and exciting Star Wars universe, famous for its realistically lived-in quality, is actually just the same thirty-odd people discussing the same things for their entire lives.

    There’s obviously a handful of key exceptions but when it comes to American horror, truly great horror films are interesting melodramas or dramas before they’re good horror films. They’re dramatically sound, rather than films that work backwards from the setpieces.

    Aw, that’s unkind! Besides he should do Judas Priest next because then he can call it Fludas Priest.

    I admire the purity of this.

    It never got better than Hinchcliffe/Holmes and I doubt it ever will.  That wasn’t just good Doctor Who, that was good contemporary British television, doing all the things British television of the era was chartered to do.

    Yeah!  Nostalgia for ghost movies is SERIOUS BUSINESS!  Stop being so facetious about it!

    Oh, I thought they cast the kid from Stranger Things so they could go "hey you know that OTHER nostalgia bait thing you like?  Well we're connected to it!"

    I made no comment about the ability to derive joy from trash.

    Someone should cgi the Ghostbusters hearse car into Come And See

Alien is another one like that really. There’s a whole army of

    Isn't the whole point of Predator that ingenuity, not superior firepower, is what wins the day?

    The wildest thing about this is that there aren’t more songs with that title.  Like, I guess I’d just assumed other people had written songs called that and it was fine?

    Er, can they?

    I believe some of that censored stuff was actually wiped from the masters. I’d love to be wrong, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

    Does anyone else find the insistence on repeatedly detailing the specific acts of misconduct a bit troubling?  I'm not saying don't do it but try to do it in a less gossipy or salacious tone, or just link to an article that goes into detail or something.  It's either misconduct or it's not (and it is) so the whole

    The names are in the wrong order in the caption under the photo, dudes.

    Baz Luhrmann sucks so much, man.
