Considering I live in New Mexico – where you don't find the burritos, the burritos find you! – I don't think I'll be needing this. Seriously. The burrito lady comes to the office every morning! Right up to my desk! No need for this!

Fun fact: the Sheriff Nicholson's character is talking to when getting out of jail was played by a man named Kieth Green, who was the editor of the Taos paper at the time. I was honored to have worked with him (Green, that is) near the end of his career and life. Really, REALLY strange to be able to say I've worked

My favorite is the obvious call back to WGBH in Boston after the song was over. The PBS affiliate's logo animation was as much a part of my childhood as Sesame Street.

"On The Air Live With Captain Midnight," a future Movie That Time Forgot feature?

Wow. Not only have I seen this film, I read the novel. And the novel's sequel Firefox Down. AND Craig Thomas' follow up to THAT book, Winter Hawk. I even remember playing a video game based on the movie in which computer generated planes and missiles (1982-circa technology, so not all that realistic) were superimposed

I thought that was Baby Face Nelson. LOOK OUT! *Hides in the carcass of a cow already shot by afore-mentioned outlaw*

Ha Ha HA HA HA HA!!! I read the story (very entertaining, actually). it made me laugh and jealous all at the same time. Also, Pops, I agree. I want to call 1-900-M-I-X-A-L-O-T! But I'm a cheap-ass bitch.

I didn't even have to listen to it. It was on mute while watching the video and I STILL was about to wretch. Thank you, AV Club for perfectly encapsulating why I absolutely hate hate hate HATE this song and anything the Trans-Siberian Orchestra has produced.

This is why I'm glad I'm not a critic. I'd be so unhappy all the time.

"the guy who made those Star Trek movies nobody was all that into?"…
What the hell is wrong with you people? Am I the only one on the planet that actually liked them?

Wow. Apparently I'm the only one on Earth who doesn't give a good Goddamn about a person's hair in movies. My wife's hair? That's a different story, because she's not just a character on screen.

I guess having a robot (Data) running your firing control would certainly improve your speed and accuracy. Also, not having to answer to an evil overlord who Force-strangles you for the slightest mistake is an advantage.

Now that I think of it, the Avenger would have hundreds, not thousands, of TIE fighters. But hundreds against zero still wins.

They don't call it the Imperial Navy for nothing.

Glad you said that. We've already seen what the Falcon needs to do to even have a chance against a capital ship: subterfuge and sleight of hand.

I agree with Kongming. The Falcon/Enterprise debate is stupid. Put the Enterprise up against the Avenger, NOW we're talking. They're both capital ships. The Falcon is nothing more than a modified small freight ship. Tyson's right, the Enterprise would DESTROY the Falcon. So it's not a debate. Compare oranges with

Agreed. Ralphie had his Red Ryder BB Gun, I had Star Wars. I wanted the Falcon, wanted it BAD, but I got a die-cast model instead. Disappointing, sure, but now that I'm a father, I realize how much my parents must have spent that Christmas. You won't hear me complaining.

Seeing these made me cry. CRY! It brought to mind Christmas 1978, THE GREATEST CHRISTMAS EVER. My brother and I got the Death Star play set, and we had destroyed it within two months. I also got the X-Wing fighter, AND I STILL HAVE IT! Magical times.

How did Screen Rant beat you guys to the punch on an Inventory feature?

This was the most interesting Random Roles I have ever read, or will EVER read. No one can name drop like this guy, and he wasn't doing it to show off, he was just recounting his life. Holy. Shit.
