Back in college, my CR-X was broken into and amongst the items taken was my aftermarket Momo steering wheel. The closest Honda dealer was only about 3 miles away and I was a poor college student who didn't want to spring for a tow truck, so I clamped some vise-grips to the steering column and drove it myself.

Black Narcissus is probably my favorite film on this phenomenal list but if I were to add one omission (other than The Red Shoes above) it would be Carnival of Souls. Beautiful movie and creepy as hell. Incredible backstory about the director and the movie's origins.

I know "horror" is a broad spectrum and doesn't simply mean slasher movies, but if you're going to put Black Narcissus in this category, you should include Powell and Pressburger's other masterpiece The Red Shoes as well - they are both breathtakingly beautiful films.

That will basically (within a couple of days) be the 40th anniversary of the original.

I did the math (in case anyone cares) and that's about 3.5 lbs of dust per square mile of surface per year.

I get it, Gawker website, need the clickbait headline, etc. etc. I always have higher hopes for Jalopnik though.

No, "Prometheuses"

You have a Tu-144 sitting there and you don't fly over for a close up? Fail!

Seriously, I can't even begin to understand how people are thinking this is a bad thing for Chevy. Who really gives a shit that they gave Tom Brady a car 10 minutes after it happened. Who really thinks Tom Brady was going to be driving that thing around? Personally I always assumed when a multi-millionaire was given…

They were (and still are) a thing of beauty. Unfortunately the aggressive slope of the rear window cut into cargo space so much that apparently you have to put your suitcases on the roof.

Hade to be pedantic, but I think that was a Toyota MR2. Quite a ways from a muscle car.

Morning jam from a star of "Grand Prix". Nice!

I agree too. Vader isn't grotesque, you could almost call him elegant. His terror isn't his appearance but his ability to command your attention and your inability to read him. You "want" to look at him. It's kind of like Hannibal Lector's most effective appearance in Silence of the Lambs. Just a pleasant, quiet,…

Definite yes. I use the same system (albeit with one of BA's less nice but still very good synthetic bags) and bought it for exactly that reason. I could never get used to sleeping in a mummy which resulted in a poor nights sleep and no fun camping. These bags have changed that for me and I will mostly sleep on my…

If this wasn't the first thing I saw when I panned down to the comments I was going to be disappointed.

So at least he's got that going for him.

Ah, the good old days of air shows before the Frecce Tricolori incident in Germany in 1988. That's why the '92 footage looks so tame in comparison - no more flying over or at the crowd.

So true, awesome film. The tension of the countdown clock scene when O'Niel is waiting for the hitmen to arrive is amazing - nobody films like that anymore.

That was a great summary of some challengingly dense material. Somebody show this to Peter Jackson.
