Honestly, I think this is my favourite one with Calvin’s dad.

Still waiting for the rerelease of The Wizard of Oz where most of it is in black and white, but Kansas is in color. 

One Thanksgiving I told them that the dog knew he was only allowed to eat one of them so they shouldn’t be scared because once he ate one of them the other three could be sure they were safe.

Username checks out.

I thought Godzilla Minus One was one of the dumbest movie titles I’ve ever heard, but Godzilla Minus One Minus Color absolutely bodies it.

There was a better B&W of Mad Max a fan made where it was a silent film. All score, not even sound effects if I remember right, and dialog cards. It was worth the watch.

There’s always nieces and nephews. I have quite a reputation with them, although I rarely let the ruse last very long.

Decolorized versions of movies tend to make me scratch my head unless the director was specifically reaching for a throwback tone with the movie. Parasite and Mad Max are such odd choices (especially Mad Max, a movie which takes great advantage of color), but I get it with The Mist and Godzilla. Why I’d give it a shot…

Somewhere out there on 10's of 1000's of acres of ranch land, Ted Turner sits. And waits. 

Maybe my only regret over not having kids is that I was never able to lie to them like this. I can only do it with my wife, and that doesn’t work as often. She did, however, believe that bilirubin was named after the scientist who discovered it: Dr William Rubin.

Removing the color is not the same as shooting on B&W film. B&W film has a richness to it that decolorization cannot capture. Just as colorizing a B&W film does not achieve the richness of Technicolor.

I don’t understand the discrepancy between the official critics and the people watching. Is it the benefit of the doubt because of HBO? Because of the name True Detective? Because of the all female team? I mean I want to give it the benefit of the doubt because of True Detective, but I can’t help agreeing with some of…

Had forgotten about that. As I’ve said, the show is dense.

What meaning do you take from Danvers’ name knowing Danvers, MA was originally Salem Village (of the witch trials fame) - is she a false accuser? Or (pun intended) the accused?

so many funny icelandic production bits:

The plush polar bear actually shows up in the first episode, right before Navarro sees the real one and the plush is definitely missing its eye.

Lazy show, same old same old. The SEX SCENES look so forced, the HORROR of what poosibly couldv happened to these frozen humans..its like a cheap horror flick from the 80s imo.

We going to talk about the stuffed polar bear missing an eye like the one Navarro saw?

“it’s a whole other thing to have one of said inhabitants roaming around the tundra nude and newly thawed from a human iceberg.”
