Pugh is also awesome in Midsommar and stole Little Women from the rest of the cast. But you've probably heard that already.

You make a valid point and was also thinking of the throwdown between Abed and Hickey over the destroyed drawings. It opened up a level of conflict that hadn’t been explored much before (well, maybe when Pierce reacted angrily to being left out of D&D), but it came to nothing. Both characters retreated to their normal…

Community - Season 5: When the show was first broadcast, I was a faithful viewer of Seasons 1-3, skipped Season 4 entirely and came back to Season 5. At the time, I loved it and considered the quality of the episodes as good as the earlier seasons. I was never able to find a way to watch Season 6 on Yahoo but…

Despite the pandemic, I still adhere to my seasonal traditions. That includes putting up the canopy in my patio on the last Sunday in April, making myself a cocktail in the middle of the afternoon and sitting underneath while listening to old jazz streaming from a local college station.

I recommend checking out "Get Carter" with Michael Caine, a UK cousin to "Point Blank." A grittier and grimmer affair, but the momentum is just as relentless.

Look up "Wait Til Your Father Gets Home" from '72-'73.

Thanks. I think you’re right.

I’m trying to identify all the women singing “Perfect Day.” I know about Fey, Poehler, Dratch, Rudolph, Shannon, and Gasteyer. I thought the one pictured on the top left might be Julia Sweeney, but others write it was Paula Pell. But I have no idea who was singing on the bottom right. Anyone? 

Streamed lots of movies with the fam during our third weekend in social isolation.

I finished the first half of Dr. Mabuse last night and completely agree about the subtitles. But Rudolf Klein-Rogge is tremendous as the title character. Even better than his turn as Rotwang in Metropolis. Subtitles aside, it’s worth the entire 4.5 hours. One of the coldest/meanest films from the silent era.

So, Gene has written and arranged songs about Topsy the elephant, Die Hard and Fame-esque farting specifically for Wagstaff functions, but when it comes to writing a school song he has nothing more creative to say than “pee” and “poo?” Non canonical.

Random quotes I always try, or want, to use:

I entertained the same thought. But there’s no way Miller, Conway or Pence would let Melania near the West Wing. They’d send her on an endless worldwide goodwill tour of shallow speeches and photo ops. But, they might let Steve Bannon, Sebastian Gorka and David Sorensen move back in.

Gone With the Wind and Sunset Blvd. do not seem like movies Trump would watch, much less like. He seems more of a Braveheart guy. All of which tells me that Trump’s just parroting complaints from someone in his inner circle (*cough* Lindsay Graham *cough*).

“...social-realist dramas were almost entirely dead, though a few, like Coal Miner’s Daughter and Ordinary People, wound up among the year’s top 10 grossing films.” I guess that’s the reason Raging Bull didn’t rate a mention; it was only the 20th highest grossing film of 1980. Still, a much better showing than the…

I’m assuming Emma is accompanied by a hirsine companion with black fur named Phillip.

A bulky Seagall going through the action hero motions does sound hilarious. I miss Roger Ebert.

I have to ask if the Steven Seagall / Ja Rule movie had them fighting pirates who are keeping food and building materials from getting to a fashion-music festival in the Bahamas. You know, State of Siege 2: Fury and Fyre.

The Stadium Drive In in Orange CA existed and had 4 screens when I watched movies there (I forget the fourth movie playing along with Kramer, Apocalype, and All That Jazz). During the ‘80s it expanded to 8 screens,  but closed in the ‘90s and is now a massive indoor multiplex. Click here for more details: http://cinema…

I saw Kramer once when I was 15 at a multi-screen drive in theater with my family. On two other screens, Apocalypse Now and All That Jazz. I don’t think I watched more than 5 minutes of Kramer, or at least little more than the scene with JoBeth Williams. Instead, I was enthralled with the soundless visuals and editing …
