Didn’t Michael Jackson have a “Sledgehammer”-style section from the “Moonwalker” music video movie? (I don’t feel like looking it up.)

Shocked to see this one didn’t make their cut.

Speaking of electro-pop videos: Dirty Vegas’ “Days Go By” is totally memorable. Definitely top 50 all time.
Very good criticism of the movie. They did a lot right, but some of it was a bit phoned-in. I feel like the script writers might have been watching Rick & Morty when they came up with stuff like the Spider-Society headquarters (basically the Citadel of Ricks), or the “Canon” being a variation of R&M’s “central finite…
Whoa, I’ve never even heard of “This Boy’s Life” - Yeeeesh that one looks like a rough watch.

Oh, Oh OHHHHH!!!
Seconded the “Shakespeare” nod.
This inexplicable biopic trend is RIPE for parody. There needs to be a “Documentary Now”-style takedown made.
Evil Dead Rise was wild: a good entry in the franchise. I’m hoping they do a prequel-style movie focusing on the history of the Book of the Dead.
TrueAnon is another great one: Liz Franczak, Brace Belden, and producer Yung Chomsky started out covering the Epstein trial and its aftermath, and have expanded the podcast to covering wider stories like Falun Gong and Synanon. Funny and informative!
Thank you!
A culturally insensitive gimmick in hindsight, but at least he was an actual Iranian man playing an Iranian heel. RIP to a legend.
Yes, we normie plebeians could only hope to lose so spectacularly, but this is the world of Succession where we’re only dealing with the insanely wealthy and their hangers-on: the insane wealth is taken as a given to these people. For somebody like Kendall, he’s distraught because he lost the machine for which he…
They should’ve just updated Ursula’s lines for today’s audience. This way, you don’t have to remove the section and it’s still clear that Ursula is giving toxic advice:
That little plot contrivance was the only way to conceivably continue the franchise. How could she have mermaid adventures as a permanent human?!

Love this topic - I’ve got some selections for folks to check out if they’re in this particular groove:
This is a great little gem of a song.
The Cars are definitely a “summer” band. Same with Cheap Trick.
