No. This is a reboot. There is no cat. The news will come in the form of a website. The yet unnamed news website is, unfortunately, locked behind a paywall and, as a result, many, many people die.

His first leap was in 1995. Later, in the final season, Al refers to it being 1999. So it’s 1995-1999, if you want to nerd about it.

Oh, I won’t argue that Dressed to Kill (and Body Heat - and maybe Cruising) kicked off the 80s Golden Age. And I won’t argue that DePalma isn’t/wasn’t technically gifted - but I will die on the hill that DePalma is a master of pastiche first, filmmaking second. 

If that’s the case, you must get turned off by a lot of famous people.

Nothing DePalma has ever done is anything other than a reimagining of something that came before it.

A poor adaptation of a videogame? Well that’s a first.

Why does Win Butler dress like the Quaker Oats guy at an audition for The Lost Boys?

I think that the film is, like Inherent Vice, a homage to 70s noir, particularly Chinatown and The Long Goodbye. Both of which are love letters to Los Angeles and have needlessly complicated plots where everyone involved would have been better off if the hero just didn’t get involved or try and solve the case. I watch…

I’m not “new to reading into movies” since I have a masters degree in it. But I will say that last night, because of this comment shitshow, I went back and watched it again.

“it seems deeply unlikely that the film could exist as anything other than a ghoulish opportunity for cinematic rubbernecking at this point.”

I don’t hate this movie, it’s more like I just don’t get “the love” for it. It’s okay. I remember seeing it in the theater and feeling underwhelmed. Same with O Brother Where Art Thou. Saw it in the theater and the audience was fucking HOWLING like they were a live studio audience for a sitcom.

Hmm. I don’t believe him.

Is there a support group for people who just don’t like this movie. I sometimes feel like I’m on an island.

Yeah, somewhere around “S” Grafton switched away from a singular POV to a multiple POV structure that made the stories more like crime novels rather than mysteries because the reader knew what was going on long before Kinsey and the pleasure was waiting for her to catch up. It really did make the books more enjoyable,…

“Telling him that you’re worried he’s going to drop dead before finishing some book you want to read is kind of mean”

Shit - yeah - Magic. I take it back then.

No, he leaped into Al in the 1960s pre-vietnam. Also, he ended up in 1999 when he and Al switched places for an episode.

I don’t think this is going to be at all related to the original. It sounds like a complete remake. Which we already had with Journeyman.

Aren’t there actors out there that could do this role without the prosthetics? Or, if they’re going to use prothetics, could they do them so they weren’t so unnaturally shitty? This looks like a fake movie trailer from an episode of 30 Rock.

And didn’t. I mean, there were boobs in Fatal Attraction - but they didn’t belong to Anne Archer, so I didn’t give a fig.
