James Franco reads The Dead Zone. And he does the Tommy Wiseau voice for the doctor character. 

I actually disagree with most of these, but the theme song for “Justified” got old really quick. The theme to “Penny Dreadful” is way too long and the visuals are very “stock footage gothic horror.”

Kazuo Ishiguro just won the Nobel Prize, and I would nominate “Never Let Me Go” as an honorable mention to this list. If you’ve never seen it I would recommend not knowing anything about it going in.

I notice Michael McKean’s tweets a lot. He’s often very funny and also talks about old movies on occasion.

Now playing

I really liked Hum when the original B&B was on, and their song “Stars” was one of the best B&B moments.

I just heard a podcast about The Zombies so the organ solos in "Time of the Season" come to mind.

Sgt Pepper might be an uneven album, but it laid the groundwork for Abbey Road and the better stuff on the White Album.
And "Martha My Dear" and "Honey Pie" are much worse than "When I'm Sixty-Four."

When I was 20 I was home visiting for the weekend and my mom decided to take me and my brother to a movie. I talked them into seeing "Pulp Fiction." As we left the theater I told my mom, "This is the movie I'm going to base my life on."
Also saw Star Wars during the original run with my Grandma when I was 3.

Lazy casting. And the shared universe thing sounds lame. They could hue closer to the originals with some new twists and make some really interesting updates. Instead, they will go overboard with the CGI and make everything a mess like that trailer for The Mummy.

My grandmother took me to see the original in the theater. I would have only been 3 or 4, but some of the images stayed with me. The droids getting picked up in the desert, Darth Vader, Chewbacca, the Death Star exploding. It's pretty impressive that you can still be entertained by something you saw when you were 3.

I remember the moment I first heard him ramp up the "Now I know why you've been shaking" line in Slaves and Bulldoers. Such a powerful voice.

Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. I left when they started swinging through the trees like Tarzan.

I had to drive out to the art theater (in Scottsdale?) to see the first Trainspotting when it came out. It was a great experience. I sort of regret that a sequel exists, but I won't be able to resist watching it at some point.
"This was to be my final hit, but let's be clear about this. There's final hits and final

That Maron episode was great. I really recommend it. Paxton was a great storyteller.

Aha Shake Heartbreak is so different than what Kings of Leon became. Once in a while I hear a song I like, but their singles are the worst. They peaked with "The Bucket."

Next was One Hot Minute with Dave Navarro.

I woke up to "Four Hours in Washington" by M Ward for a while. "Well it's one in the morning and I cannot sleep at night…"

I almost always have more than one book going at once. It keeps me from getting tired of reading the longer ones. The drawback is that it takes longer to finish a book that way. Also, I ideally am going between something fiction and something nonfiction.

Re-reading Stephen King's Skeleton Crew due to Patton Oswalt tweeting about The Jaunt.

He did a really funny interview on the Nerdist podcast, and he was hilarious in The Night Before. It's great to see someone who was so intense in other movies be funny like that.
