No, they said that “Cutlass Supreme” sounds like something you would order from a restaurant, I guess like a Burrito Supreme or an Arch Deluxe.

“[T]he Court has never questioned the principle that the Due Process Clause applies to small deprivations as well as great ones. Many things — beating with a rubber truncheon, water torture, electric shock, incessant noise, reruns of ‘Space 1999' — may cause agony as they occur yet leave no enduring injury. The…

What seems bizarre about the whole setup to me is that Egon would be the one to relocate to Oklahoma in a quixotic quest to save the world. That just sounds like a very Ray thing to do. I mean, I know Part II is nearly as despised as the 2016 remake - though, being old enough to see that one in the theater vs. the…

[B]ut putting together a great cast with great chemistry and upping the pace of the action is really fun!

I consider the Clinton-era telecom deregulation bill to be the bigger offender there.

Well, its not like they had much of a choice in the matter. They barely received his message, and apparently couldn’t respond.

“The point of the Kobayashi Maru scene is to foreshadow how Kirk’s hubristic belief that there are no “unwinnable” scenarios will eventually get his son and best friend killed.”

The interesting this is that he himself was barely interested in going back to that well when he made Undiscovered Country. A movie I wish the franchise was more eager to emulate.

America’s youth aren’t “lankifying.” Like the rest of America, they just keep getting fatter and fatter. Hollywood, on the other hand, continues to populate their movies almost exclusively with skinny people, unless you’re talking about comic relief or villains (and even then, we’re mostly talking about the comic…

Every person on the film’s creative team had fused juvenile mindsets with grown-up laughs before—most notably in Animal House, Stripes, and more

[T]he assumption tends to be that there’s a knee-jerk, reactionary reason for it—whether elitist, obnoxious, or both... Whether it’s the MCU or Charlie Brown TV specials, admitting your ignorance is a special kind of way to open yourself up to vitriol in the social media age.

Well, this does seem a little bit mean spirited, but I see where it comes from. Hollywood these days seems to have a group of two dozen or so people who they like at the moment that get put in literally everything.

The 70's was an especially bad time for San Francisco. Aside from the People’s Temple there was the Zodiac Killer, the start of the AIDS crisis, and the assassination of supervisor Milk and mayor Moscone.

“It’s like if that mushed up duo that Rand screwed up transporting in TMP suddenly started talking and walking.”

Yeah but she and Paris started a whole new species after they became salamanders and mated, so it all works out.

They really seem to have no idea of how to make anything interesting with the massive store of IP they have. They just seem to throw it all in a blender and hope the resultant concoction is paletable (and it usually isn’t).

Love Seinfeld or hate it, you have to admit they always found good character actors to play the various walk-on roles. Anyone who’s ever seen Secret Honor knows Philip Baker Hall is just showing us a fraction of his acting ability in this scene.

Yeah, that’s kind of what I was thinking. By the ‘50s/’60s he was deep into his “icy blonde” fixation, and looking for someone he could mold into an image, like he did with Grace Kelly and tried to do with Tippi Hedren. Hepburn was established by then and didn’t much need him.

If John Landis has proved anything, it’s that if you’re famous enough in Hollywood you can kill pretty much anybody on set and get away with it.

“But he was definitely misusing it...”
