Oh damn! For a while there, I thought I might still have a chance to be the first to make this joke even though I got to the article really late. FWIW, I would have phrased it: "If they wanted to make Spider-Man's girlfriend a minority, why didn't they just cast Emma Stone?"
Millard Fillmore and the Know Nothings would be a great name for a band.
Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?
OK, I'll play:
Mothman loves KFC:
Here the Sulphur River flows,
Rising when the storm cloud blows.
And this is where the creature goes,
Safe within a world he knows.
Even though my dad played this song on 8-track repeatedly when I was growing up, the Lebowski association has effectively replaced it in my mind. So I guess that's a win for the Coen Bros….
And even though Yumeji's Theme was borrowed from another movie, for most of us it will always represent Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung passing each other on the stairs, filled with a longing that dare not be made known, as they ascend and descend to the noodle stand below.
When I hear "Jump Into The Fire" I automatically start looking for helicopters.
"Tainted Love" always makes me think of the Humvee sing-along in Generation Kill.
I heard Primal Scream's "Loaded" on the radio the other day and all I could see in my head was the "suiting up" sequence of The World's End.
"Glad Tidings…" is a good one. Every time I hear it I see Gandolfini tramping thru the snow and creeks and ravines and back yards to get away from Johnny Sack's house. And the moment just before that, when Tony and Johnny are talking on the back porch and Tony sees the FBI guys coming down the slope and he glances…
I always think of that episode of Buffy when I hear "Only Have Eyes…" as well.
I always thought Ira's voice sounded effeminate on the radio, but I noticed that when he speaks on camera, I don't get the same impression of effeminacy. But maybe that's just me, idk…
I watched Ip Man last week. It was the first time I've seen Donnie Yen. It made me excited for Rogue One.
The Gene Tierney episode of the "Star Wars" series got to me so much that I had to go and watch all her major work, which I hadn't seen before.
No, I mean I'm just not sure.
I agree there were quite a few cheap ripoffs out there in the day, especially on TV, but I can't remember anyone really throwing money at it.
It's one of those movies that if you see it at a certain age, you'll always regard highly (i.e., OMG TITTIES!), but if you catch up to it later in life, you'll struggle to keep your eyes open.
