It was also the King back then.

Your buds on Facebook do not constitute, “The vast majority”

At the same time, The Best Years of Our Lives is a film that could have only been made when it was, and that’s one of the reasons why it’s so good. It’s a snapshot of the world right after the war when people are still trying to make sense of it.

In some parts of the world, ruin porn is a big part of the local economy. People will pay good money to see a nice ruin.

It looks like an updated version of the Brubaker Box, which is not a bad thing.

Stalin got the honour twice.  “Person of the Year” has never been about who’s the nicest.

I’m not fan of the big orange fool, but a little reality check is in order.  Let’s not forget that Democrat won control by the barest of margins.   Sure, the uprising in January looked like a clown show, but so did the Beerhall Putsch the first time the Nazis tried to take power.  What should really concern you is how…

For something that’s supposed to have no soul, you all seem to be having a lot of fun.

There were a few gems, but I will freely admit that most of the pre Star Wars science fiction films I enjoy are about the nostalgia. There are some people who call it the golden age of science fiction film, but let me tell you, kids, if there is a golden age of, you’re living in it right now.

Of course they should make their dumb space movie, but if the folks at the AV Club are trying to frame it as some kind of triumph of socialism over capitalism, then they are clearly idiots who have no idea what they’re talking about.

According to Google the current piston driven record is 470.016mph, so they’re getting there

You do know the Soviet Union hasn’t been around for, um, 30 years now, and if anything, they’re a bigger bunch of right wing plutocrats than the Americans?

Seeing one of these in the rear view mirror.

Sorry, that should be Amedee Bollee. Leon was his son.

Go a little further to the early ‘70s and both Ford and GM had a range of carsw with mock radiators like that.

Leon Bollee’s La Mancell. Front engine, rear drive, independent front suspension, steel wheels, all in 1878.   It’s an American land yacht almost a century before its time.
