“Yeah, if you could...speed up your work on the new Death Star...that would be greeaaaaat.”

I saw it opening day as well. I was going to get braces and they had stuck rubber bands between my teeth to loosen them up. This made eating very painful, so I had to suck on the pieces of popcorn until they softened up, before I could eat them. (Didn’t really help.)

Was it even Prowse? He had been slowly but surely pushed to the side by the time ROTJ was filmed and I don’t think he was in a lot of those scenes. There’s a documentary I Am Your Father that talks about the decline in his and Lucas’s relationship, to the point that now he’s pretty much banned from anything officially…

Brilliant analogue. Seriously.

Good God.

OMG I read Go Ask Alice in the 7th grade and lapped that shit UP. I even recorded myself reading excerpts into my tape recorder. And the back copy! “Sugar and spice and everything nice/Acid and smack and no way back.” (I would read the first line very brightly, then make my voice sound cold and forbidding on the…

Great analysis, thank you.

I LOVE Grease 2! And that guy, randomly throwing a quintuple pirouette in the damn bowling alley, is one of my favorite bits! (Along with the guy who is hilariously clapping while holding a bowling ball, like that’s SO easy.) The score is excellent, for one thing. Girl for All Seasons? Do It For Our Country?…

Everyone’s going to look like the news team on the first Batman movie, two or three weeks into the Joker’s cosmetic-poisoning plan.

Repeatedly I’ve approached two people walking abreast so as to take up the entire sidewalk. They silently offer approachers the choice of squeezing between them or swerving into the street to miss them entirely.

A friend of mine took a walk here in NYC Saturday because the weather was so nice and was thoroughly spooked by how few people were practicing the 6-foot rule. One guy even veered toward her on the sidewalk. She ended up cutting short her walk. Fucking idiots.

Oh, I love Pagliacci! I named one of my clownfish after Canio. La commedia è finita!

Also, as someone terrified of clowns, that damn under the bed clown in Poltergeist flat out freaked me out.

Don’t forget Tron!

OMG I’m dying at this comment.

I love how Trump has established the stock market as the barometer of his presidency, so much so that he could only be bothered to care about this pandemic after the stock market has taken a beating...and his attempt to stop the slide resulted in the single worst day for stocks in a generation.

w...o....w...I don’t know why I’m shocked but I genuinely am.

Yuuuuup.

But a pandemic still took out his baby mama in the end. Best to give him a wide berth.

The Doomsday Book is *fantastic.* Highly recommended. Was just thinking about it today, and the priest who sees Kivrin when she first comes through to the past and thinks she is a literal angel.
