Cult classic but still pop (cultured). In this essay I would like to thank you for coming to my TED talk. https://linktr.ee/brent_keane

My favorite anecdote was when The Far Side ran this cartoon. The Jane Goodall Institute was NOT amused, and threatened litigation, until it found out that Jane Goodall herself had seen the cartoon and thought it was hilarious.

Seriously, thirty years ago Snoop was seen as dangerous, *the* hardcore gangsta, now he's spruiking the footy? Especially after endorsing the POtuS? FOH.
Despite myself, I saw the new Fantastic Four movie earlier, and without spoiling...I don't think I've ever seen a film where the deus ex machina was responsible for firing Chekhov's proverbial gun.
Not a critique (I liked FF: FS on the whole), just an observation.
@fastbak77 9 days ago When this dropped three months ago 1 thought Todd had done his usual excellent job with compling this video together (even as an Aussie ! was surprised by the cameos by Richard Wilkins and Natalie Bassingthwaite), however over the weekend this was voted by the Australian public as the third (!) most popular Aussie song ever in the Triple J Hottest 100 of Australian Songs. Regardless of fts perception as a one-hit wonder overseas (allowing for Todd's usual caveats), here Dow Under it's part of our musical heritage and canon forever more. Can't say that about most other songs that Todd has covered in this series (except Midnight Oils' " Beds Are Burning", which reached no. 1 8 in the aforementioned countdown). Reply โ @TurboRampage 4 days ago 1 Touch Myself by The Divinyls was No. 54 (and Todd has covered that one as well)l @fastbak77 0 seconds ago @TurboRampage Whoops!

He was instrumental in my career and I thank him for that.
Though he was certainly complicated, I strongly believe Marvel, the direct market, and possibly the industry itself, might not exist today without what Jim Shooter did as EiC.
I compiled this on my Tumblr circa the release of Dark of the Moon, credit where it is indeed due for developing the Transformers as we know them:

The trial is taking place in Morwell, the next town over; the media focus has been such that people are queueing to enter the courthouse & view proceedings.
If you've been to Morwell as frequently as I have, you'd understand why I find this grimly amusing.
