It’s still bizarre to me that the first place I ever heard a ‘squeal like a pig’ joke was on Rocko’s Modern Life.
Another notch on that show’s extensive ‘how did this not get dinged?’ belt.

Corollary to this, I’d be interested to know how many people can trace their knowledge of one or more episodes of The Twilight Zone to seeing them spoofed on Treehouse of Horror.
-If we’re laying cards on the table on that note: Homer^3 as a version of Little Girl Lost for me.
-The Critic’s take on the Orson Welles radio spots (“Full of country goodness and green peaness...wait. That’s terrible!”)
-As I’ve admitted elsewhere recently, I had no idea just how long the legacy was behind the Simpsons character oft-refered to simply as “YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS?”
-Animaniacs spoofing Apocalypse Now.…
It kind of is, actually.
Deplatforming is, at its core, the free speech of the market at work.
The owners of the platforms decide, for one reason or another, that they feel Jones’s presence on their platform is detrimental to their bottom line.
Like any problem client or customer, the owners are well within their rights…
Cause anyone can make sense of that. It takes a truly advanced thinker to crack the mysteries of *checks notes* child sex slaves on Mars?
...are we absolutely sure this man isn’t abusing some manner of illegal drug?
(Actually, to his credit, the QAnon crowd gives his fanbase a run for their money in terms of their…
Part of me wants to correct the statement, the other part of me can only stare in Dick Halloran-esque horror imagining the outcome of either such coupling.
...it’s a curious mix, to be certain.
The podcast We Hate Movies makes a good case for the dislike (with Andrew Jupin even admitting he loved the movie for years before coming back to it and recognizing the shortcomings) - it has some bits that work (bless Peter MacNicol for trying as hard as he does) but ultimately, it’s just sort of a lazy sequel with…
Offer him popcorn?
Initially they planned to give him more screentime, if you can believe it. The scene with Louis getting on the bus, like the infamous blowjob ghost in the first movie was part of a larger axed piece of film of Rick Moranis trying, and failing, to catch Slimer.
“Good ol’ Rock...nothin’ beats that!”
Boy...is my face red...
Thank God, I’m not the only one.
Even now, I remember it more for its marketing (and the delightful fuckup that was their Twitter stunt) than I do for anyone actually liking the movie.
There’s days I’ve wondered about that.
In so far as I TOTALLY wouldn’t put it past him to get a secret bypass, or go full monster and get a heart transplant ‘offered’ by some unsuspecting donor overseas and make sure no one found out it ever happened so he could continue to claim he’s in perfect health.
Kind of related - the more I look at his eyes, the more I’m really struck by just how pale the skin around them is.
I mean, you kind of see it in some other pics where the spray tan fails, but the eyes are the most constant tell since he can’t really cover that up.
And over the past year or so, that skin has been…
Thing is, Trump is too short-sighted and impulsive to be an effective Baron.
In terms of his political function and aspirations, he’s more like if Rabban managed to live long enough to qualify for a senior discount.
Hell, for a while there, I’d have pegged Bannon for the Vladmir in the equation, with Trump as his Rabban…
Here’s the thing though - to you it sounds like batshit lunacy. There’s still a lot of people, however, who think it makes perfect sense.
Hell, Alex Jones spent years rambling about goblin vomit and chemtrails making frogs gay. The man has enough rope built up to make 10 Gordian knots easily. It’s been over five years…
Directly AND indirectly (remember, he personally offed his biological father in ‘defense’ of his adoptive father and then tried to wipe out said BF’s people for an encore.)
I’ll give the credit where it’s due - Tusk isn’t a particularly good movie by a lot of metrics, but it has the saving graces of some decently directed sequences and a good Michael Parks performance.
Yoga Hosers on the other hand...yeeeeeeesh.
Not really? Like, about the worst I think anyone’s been aware of is for a while there he was kind of weirdly TMI about having sex with his wife, but that’s almost more a punchline than milkshake duck grounds.
About the only other thing I could say is there’s moments that feel more ignorant/tone deaf than outright…
I always feel conflicted on the originality case where Yoga Hosers is concerned.
On the one hand, save for hitting up the Troma filmography, you’d be hard-pressed to find much that matches it (though on having finally watched the movie Strange Brew after putting it off for years, I can’t help but feel like Smith’s…
