I can't decide which Olsen twin conspiracy I like more, "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt's" that there are four or eight of them, or John Oliver's that they're actually one person moving incredibly fast.

I keep meaning to give "Downward Dog" a chance, but I'm too busy to catch up on it on Hulu. Shame, as I like Alison Tolman.

I'm not up on "Game of Thrones," but I have heard they cast pornstars to be nude extras. I suppose that's a good way to find people willing to do that.

It looks to be a flop domestically, but doing okay overseas. Hard to say what will happen.

Sometimes. It occasionally gives weird choices for which behind-the-scenes role somebody is listed for. It's the kind of thing I generally don't like to use unless it's either really an out-there choice, or there's not much else in the day.

The movie about them kind of flew under the radar, but I rather enjoyed it. (Even though it's tied to a kind of painful memory for me.)

Last Week Tonight - June 11, 2017

Yes, but I just prefer to have everyone buy their own seats. It's not like the movies we see are so popular that they'll sell out in the few minutes it takes to buy our tickets.

I often go to the semi-art-house theater I mentioned in my post with another person. We have to buy the tickets early, and I have to tell him which seat I bought to make sure we sit together.

My local Cinemark has done this, and I think the price has remained the same. (I haven't been there in months, though.)

I've sometimes used the "Whatever, white people" line. It confuses people, since I'm white, too.

This last week in Sillstaw’s entertainment:

Seeing "I, Daniel Blake" this Saturday evening. It's at a different theater than the usual place I go to for these arthouse films, one I've never been to before. I also saw "It Comes at Night" last night, and will detail my thoughts on it on the pop-culture weekend AVQ&A.

Yep.

It's actually also the title of a WWE movie that rips off "The Most Dangerous Game."
