Thank you, fellow Bond pedant.

“Congratulations, Gloria. You’ve won a brand new 1990 Silver Spur Rolls Royce”

Well it would have been a different take for sure. If she could have channeled her Dead Ringers character maybe I would have liked Voyager more.

In fact they recast Janeway pretty early in the production of Voyager. Genevieve Bujold was on set and filming scenes then quit a few days in.

I remember an interesting rumor about Johnston back in the early/mid 90s that he was slated to direct one of the prequels (before Lucas officially stepped in) and Jumanji was something of a trial run for him to practice directing a very CGI-intensive movie. Obviously it didn’t play out that way but I wonder if there…

So true. I first saw him in Attack the Block which was totally fun but a pretty lightweight film. Even with that, he brought noticeable gravitas to his character who while being a “hero”, was not an overly sympathetic one. A very noticeable performance in an otherwise goofy film. The next time I saw him was when his…

This. I’m not looking to defend the current system and I know people love getting all riled up these days, but in her tenure she did triple the stock price and that 1) is not easy with a turd of a company and 2) makes up the predominant part of that $186M which is in shares, as was much of her other compensation. Is…

And a star to you for actually knowing the band’s original name spelling.

I was having this issue with AT&T and they have a app you can download called Call Protect which seems to be doing a great job filtering them out. It was frustrating as hell because the same number never called twice. Not sure if you are receiving these calls on a cell phone or use AT&T, but if not maybe your service…

I looked into this not long ago when there were about six or seven people left, sad to see the last person pass. While obviously just nature taking its course, it’s a strange thing to contemplate. As a small kid in the 1970s, it was pretty normal to meet old folks born in the last decade or two of 1800s. WWI veterans…

“Luke, you’re amazing.”

COTD for tomorrow.

Michael Fassbinder’s head on Noomi Rapace’s body? Not my thing but I’ll bet that’s going to get somebody very excited.

I actually thought that was the photo accompanying the article above.

This. I work in an industry that services high net worth people and you would be shocked at how much things like credit card rewards points and fractions of a percentage interest on cash balances matter to them. There are people like sports figures or rock stars who come into wealth and spend all they make, but the…

And not one of them will be a manual.

I’ll admit I spent 15-20 seconds looking for it in the background of that second poster.

That poster is more compelling than any of the trailers I’ve seen so far.
