Bayless is stupid about the thing he’s paid to be an expert about.

It’s obvious the Trump Administration is making up their Iran war strategy as they go along. They’re following the Improv principle of β€œDeath, and…”

Sigourney Weaver was in the audience for my college department graduation ceremony.

For some reason the thing I always remember from when I saw it 40+ years ago was Wells referring to eating at β€œa Scottish restaurant … MacDougal’s.”

One worked his entire career after Army service for a California utility company; the other was a glazier.

It really does point out how these idiots had absolutely nothing to say to potential voters beyond "I'm the Republican!"

If you’re still yelling about something from the Trump Administration being a distraction, you might want to take notice that they keep distracting themselves with all their actions because they clearly don’t know how to manage all these things at the same time.

Because they’re fucking morons.

This is a damned shame, as this movie is hella fun and weird and utterly distinctive. Wrote about it here, thanks to Doug’s donation to a good cause. boxd.it/bIW4A3

In 1984, Don Henley’s β€œThe Boys of Summer” used β€œDeadhead sticker on a Cadillac” as shorthand for young rebel-turned-adult sellout.
The Ataris’ 2003 cover updated to β€œBlack Flag sticker” for Gen X.
What would the Millennial equivalent band be for a version released today?

Cars were invented, and over the years they were improved a great deal. They got us places. But then someone decided that cars should fly. They can’t fly, but the resources devoted to making them fly meant they stopped working on the road, and got unsafer than they’d ever been.

THAT IS WHAT AI IS.

I know Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have been busy with producing, and about the whole SOLO fiasco, but it honestly shocked me to realize it's been 12 years since they directed a feature.

Ah, I can still hear that β€œjust on the border of your waking mind” Vocoder opening.

I honestly can’t recall how many of the SCARY MOVIE features I’ve actually seen, but my best recollection is that they were always collections of references, as though ticked off from a checklist. That’s what the new trailer reminded me of, when I wasn’t cringing at the β€œlol wokeness” stuff.

Fash and MAGA types referring to Iranians as Arabs maybe ought to have gone to school or read a book or something because less 2% of Iranians are Arabs. If you’re gonna be an awful c**t, at least be an awful c**t accurately.

My emotions are kind of close to the surface in this time, but I didn't expect that while catching up with SAG Awards acceptance speeches, I'd find myself repeatedly getting misty-eyed.

HOPPERS marks the third time already I've heard Bikini Kill's "Rebel Girl" in a movie this year (twice at Sundance), so it's time for a trend piece.

I'm not sure I could have seen it coming that the author of ME AND EARL AND THE DYING GIRL would effectively become Pixar's house screenwriter.

It must be nice to be a sociopath, because all the new products are for you. The smart glasses will give you that woman’s address, the betting apps will finally let you make bank on war crimes.

As annoyingly ubiquitous as Whitney Houston’s version of β€œI Will Always Love You” was, I now cherish every time I heard it as another dollar in the pocket of someone who knew how to do good with it.

Every single person involved in such an endeavor is a fucking monster, no exceptions. Whatever had to happen to your soul to wager on mass death is fodder for TALES FROM THE CRYPT plots.
