What? Ha ha, no! Absolutely not. I’m Bam Sarbanti!

I was just re-watching Endgame with my kids this weekend and while I love that character and everything he did with it, they really stuck the landing with his arc. It would dramatically deflate the power of that ending to bring him back.

and zoom out to an autistic kid staring at a snow globe?

Color laser FTW. As someone whose household doesn’t print often we’ve thrown away some many inkjets that just won’t clean because we don’t use them enough. We bought a color laser a few years ago (Brother Color imageCLASS MF741Cdw) and it’s been flawless.

The Mummy was from a time when the studios still tried to make movies that were fun, instead of the whole grim-dark thing.

Almost every review of The Mummy at the time compared it to Raiders of the Lost Ark, a movie that had come out eighteen years earlier.

Well one of the other actors from Head of the Class (the guy who wasn't a nerd) was previously the head of Nickelodeon and is now the CEO of Paramount pictures. So that probably helped his career.

I was going to say, yes he was an actor, but not necessarily a GOOD actor. Maybe he should have hired Daniel Day-Lewis to play him for the apology. Although DDL would have had to do six months of living like Dan Schneider, so maybe best to go ahead and leave DDL out of it. For his own sanity.

You don’t understand, it was the first movie to ever have a mummy in it.

Yeah, ‘Jaws’ is very much regarded as the origin of the summer blockbuster. The quality of these sites really is going straight downhill, I guess. Research? They don’t even know the meaning of the word! Lol

In the early 2000's there was a theatre outside of Montreal that I went to whenever there for work. They’d play some “old” movie - usually something 80's - and only charge a twoonie for the pleasure. Much better than catching up on email in the hotel.

It’s easier now since most movies are transmitted to theaters digitally. It literally costs them next to nothing to release something for a couple weeks in theaters anymore. The question is if theaters want to pay for the movie to show it. After all theaters bid against each other to see who gets to show what. So, you…

“The Mummy” from 1999 paved the way for the summer blockbuster as we know it? This sounds very much like what you’d say if you were born in 1993, but summer blockbusters have been around since Jaws in 1975 at least.

Maybe NBC should just rename itself to the Dick Wolf Network

Their whole relationship felt like a gay love story that was edited out by spineless execs. 

Well he plays a character named Walton Sobchunk who won’t stop yelling about how he has to give stuff up for fuckin’ Lent.  He also says “You’re in over your head, Daniel!”

I always hated the way they tossed off the origin of humanoids in one episode. It deserves more.

I want to believe, but...

Yeah, pretty much. I feel like all computers at this point are powerful enough to do whatever general tasks you need them to do....it’s when you get into the more specialized niches the dependencies on little hardware choices matter ( for example, if you are doing 3-D modeling and rendering beyond more than a hobby…

Marc Summers throwing water in Burt Reynolds face is one of my all-time favorite late night moments.
