It’s perfectly alright. If it’s on, I’ll watch it. As far as baseball movies go, though, I’d much, much rather watch Bull Durham or The Natural or Eight Men Out or the original Bad News Bears.

Say it ain’t so, dirtside!

How long before we hear about a Bull Durham series?

How’s ya brother?

Considering that USDA stands for the United States Department of Agriculture, I think it’s a safe bet to say it’s a joke.

And when was the last time you heard of a horse or cow with COVID? Exactly.

How has someone not posted this Calvin and Hobbes strip yet?

Princess Diana, who died tragically in the English Channel when her driver attempted to drive from London to Russia.

She is the Campion, my friends.

Gabrielle gets all Jamie-Lee-Curtis-hearing-Italian-in-A-Fish-Called-Wanda horned out by a man who can whistle creepily.

I read his sequel (or prequel, whatever) to Trevanian’s Shibumi and was not impressed.  This is what he gets for stealing the titles of existing novels, his readers get confused.

I got no sexiness from the trailer either. I can tell you that the book was not sexy at all, and was pretty tense and mean-spirited at times, so the trailer is on point.

In the book Benedict Cumberbatch’s character played a banjo to set his brother’s wife’s nerves to the point of breaking; in the film it looks like they’ve replaced the banjo with menacing whistling (like Fritz Lang’s M or Alan Arkin in Wait Until Dark). This seems like a welcome and effective move.

Holy shit, I loved that book, and I had zero clue that it was being adapted into a film. Definitely recommend reading.

I thought it was made of barbecue spare ribs.  Would you eat the moon if it were made of ribs?  It’s a simple question.  I know I would!

She drove all the way to Russia to have that photo taken.

Spike Lee’s Do (Your Own Research) the Right Thing

I regret to inform you that as a filmmaker he’s not that brilliant.

It’s fine, all he does with the 9/11 Truthers is loudly and at length grill them about whether they’re Yankees or Knicks fans, as if anybody besides himself gives a flying fuck.

I though it was because he hung upside down with gravity boots, which also may be why Keith cannot be killed by conventional weapons.
