Since we’re stretching the definition of forgettable here, I’ll submit what is to me the greatest line in cinema history, delivered brilliantly by the great William Fichtner in Armageddon

Play the Grand Prize Game from the Bozo Show. When I was very little I used to practice that shit relentlessly in the back yard and at the beach (wind permitting) in the HIGHLY unlikely case that we would ever be in Chicago, that we would then attend a Bozo taping, and that I would get picked to play.

Now playing

Oh man, that sucks. Was literally just listening to the newest episode of her podcast with Holly Marie Combs yesterday where they were talking about plans. She also mentioned that she’s made sure that her mother is taken care of because she knew this was coming.

Now I want that. Frank and Shred running from massive ‘splosions while Emily and the Kiwi wash the vehicles in slow motion.

Saw this months ago.  All four of them are outstanding, but Gilpin and Wise still stand out.  Fantastic supporting cast.  Shame it took so long to finally air in the US.

Yeah, same. The few clips I’ve seen have elicited a, “Why is this even a thing?” feeling from me, and he always seemed annoying. Then a couple months ago I’m watching the newest episode of Holly Randall’s podcast, and she asks the porn star she’s interviewing about that guy. So they were dating, he said he was cool

You don’t have to buy anything. You do still have to go through the checkout process and enter a credit card, but you won’t be charged for anything. I’ve had Apple for most of the last 3 years running completely on these free sub offers.

Yup.  Agree with all of this.  It wasn’t his strongest work, but I was reserving judgement until seeing the whole thing.  Hope it succeeds because I want to see the whole story, and also because I like that he put his own money up for it.  As TV-ish as some of it felt, it still needs to be seen on the biggest screens

You can regularly get 3 free months from Best Buy. Usually a couple times a year. This current round is good til mid September. You can also get 3 free months if you’re a Target Circle member (as well as other free Apple subs) and that deal is good til February.

I saw the first Pirates, and I think most or all of one other, though not sure which. Bill Nighy was in it with a cephalopod-type face. I’ve never seen a Shrek or Kung Fu Panda movie.

Thanks!

It’s definitely good, but my vote will always go to this from Armageddon, which I believe is the greatest line in cinematic history, funny or otherwise.

I hadn’t watched season two yet. Good to hear it moves along better, but does the finale serve as a decent enough series finale? Or is not worth even bothering with?

I was just thinking the other day that I wished there was something I could load books that didn’t have audio versions into, but using the voices of people who didn’t agree to it is pretty fucked up. I don’t care whether their estates agreed or not.

As the man said some 35 years ago....

Yeah, that was a lot of fun and what convinced me. He was practically growling, and the way he moved around with those pelts draped over his shoulders.... and that front kick to the body that sends his brother flying backwards... give that man some fingernails!

Looking forward to the forecasts...

I liked it, but you’re definitely right about there being no handholding. I was confused in spots, but not so much that I couldn’t follow along. There’s so damn many moving pieces. Hopefully it’s a slow burn that does well-enough over the next few weeks, and on what I assume will be a quick VOD release before the
