“Lost’s third season also contains some of its worst episodes before the midseason hiatus.” It’s OK to say Nikki and Paulo out loud. 

Glad they finally found their motivation. More power to them.

There were a couple sitcom classics in the ‘90s - Seinfeld and golden-age Simpsons - but yeah. In the pre-streaming age you had to sit through a lot of average-to-ugh shows before they started.

To be fair, the best picture and best song nominees were featured throughout the broadcast and when the winners for each were announced the nominees were not recaped. 

Someday they’ll beat Roxy Music’s record. https://images.app.goo.gl/fvwR3Y1ckTdQTnyc7

Favorite deep cuts I would have ranked instead of “Summer’s Almost Gone,” “Been Down So Long,” and “Touch Me” include “My Eyes Have Seen You,” “I Can’t See Your Face in My Mind” and “Cars Hiss By My Window.” I’d probably also move “Hello, I Love You” off for “Yes, The River Knows.”

Thinking of London Broil for dinner tonight.

It's a not much fun.

Didn’t expect this to make the list but feel compelled to shout out Pavement’s video for Gold Soundz. Filmed at Fashion Island shopping center in Newport Beach, CA.

Just glad you didn’t pick the video for “Illegal Alien.” You can find the link on YouTube if necessary. I won’t post it. 

“... and an opening MUSTACHE ORIGIN STORY? SERIOUSLY?” At one time I wished to direct a movie version of “Count of Monte Cristo” and include a sequence where Edmond and Abbe find time to invent the sandwich while imprisoned in the Chateau d’If.

I’d place Louis Gara in Jackie Brown much higher on the list. Great use of De Niro’s low-energy, internalized style to convey that character’s terminal burnout. I’d also replace his Louis Cyphre in the ridiculously dumb Angel Heart with an early performance for Brian DePalma, like Jon Rubin in Hi, Mom!

One reason (unmentioned in the synopsis, of course) is that it was only semi-directed by Tod Browning. Browning really wanted Lon Chaney (Sr.) to play the Count, but Chaney died leaving Browning despondent and hitting the bottle. He had no interest in Lugosi and made little-to-no effort with the rest of the cast.…

How about just a note reading that Kang died on his way to his home universe?

They did, but for some reason Out of Our Heads, Black and Blue and England’s Newest Hitmakers weren’t included. 

Woke up not expecting to read a listicle that credits Tom Arnold for a film’s rewatchability. It's going to be an interesting day 

More mid-coital. Taylock's hand gesture while Oppenheimer reads the line strongly implies she's guiding his penis back into her. A nice moment as far as I'm concerned.

Nope. I was 12 when 2001 was first broadcast in TV. Loved every second even though I knew a lot of it was over my head. Made me want to understand more. I knew I still had a lot to learn about things and was intrigued by the challenge. I don't think I was an outlier.

I saw After Hours for the first time in decades on Criterion Channel last year. Oddly, while I remembered almost all the supporting players - Linda Fiorentino, John Heard, Verna Bloom, Bronson Pinchot, Cheech, Chong, et. al I completely forgot Catherine O’Hara was the leader of the vigilantes. I think it’s one of her…

Thanks, Mo.
