Many years ago Ahmet Zappa and I sold an animated pilot to Klasky-Csupo (the Rugrats people) called BENCH PRESSLY: THE WORLD’S STRONGEST PRIVATE DICK. Basically Dick Tracy set in Vegas of the future. During casting I suggested Bruce Campbell, but no one at the company knew who he was

If I may add in one; his brief appearance in GHOST DOG: THE WAY OF THE SAMURAI is just kind of perfectly right in how it implies a larger world of these guys. (And his soundtrack for that movie, of course, rules.)

Congratulations!

lol at the tourists in dubai being like ‘what do you mean i took my vacation at The Neiman-Marcus That Kills You’

He's important as hell! Cavalry wasn't the biggest part of the Revolution but what was there was crucial.

What is Pulaski Day? Here's what's closed and the history of this Chicago holiday Pulaski Day will be observed on Monday, March 2. Chicago and Cook County government offices and courts will be closed. Chicago Public Schools, local banks and post offices will be open.

Hey, it's the annual "Who the hell is Casimir Pulaski" Day for non-Illinoisans! chicago.suntimes.com/chicago/pula...

This is the company that Substack chose to partnership with.

Oh, pardon me, but fuck this shit all to hell.

We do have to bribe her with cat crack but Sasha is letting us pet her a bit now.

Thank you!

(I gripe about the Ralph Lauren Olympics uniforms every cycle but at least they’re neat and clean looks.)

American release poster for CHINATOWN KID (1977)

But this poster is great too.

If wanted to know what Darwyn Cooke doing a Spaghetti Western would look like, Shawn Kuruneru's CAVE GRAVE (WILD WEST TALES) is the answer. This comic rules.

SOLD.

I believe Ryan Coogler is the first director to direct two movies that won this award. (The other was Black Panther.)

Hey, has anyone watched the THE DECAMERON that was on Netflix a couple of years ago? I'm intrigued by the cast (we're watching a Midsomer Murders that has one of them, Douggie McMeekin, in it).

A ★★★ review of Iseshima (1950) A very charming tourism video for the Ise-Shima area, especially worth seeing for early underwater photography and the woman who are pearl divers in the area.

#43: Iseshima (1950) - An interesting first film for Ishirō Honda, a tourism video about the Japanese peninsula.

No.

I'm trying to be kind and trying to think in any way why that bird would make a person think "Mets."

That immediately says, "No trust at all, don't watch." Morgan Neville made shit up.

Why are you promoting a gambling site?

The people who marched through an American city shouting "Jews will not replace us," are the exact same people who nut their pants every single time the United States bombs and murders Muslims.

Christian and white in the nationalism are inextricable, and they want EVERYONE who isn't them to die.

Read it and saw the weirdly hilarious recent movie. That puppet is a masterpiece.
