Not particularly, it was just that one song which reminded me of Pet Shop Boys.

This actress died on her birthday.

Halloween (1978) wasn't a surprise success. Seven days before its release, Jamie Lee Curtis was seen in a season 3 episode of ABC's Charlie's Angels called Winning is for Losers.
From September 1977 to May 1978, JLC could be seen in the first season of an ABC sitcom called Operation Petticoat.
Pretty far out!

This was the year before the release of a Hong Kong film called The Untold Story.

It's nice to see more people think outside the box about BTTF.

Hollywood must have been a really sordid place in 1963 for Dolores Hart to become a nun at the age of 24.

I suspect that podcasts are to blame for Sunday Brunch's decline.
With the biopic trend still on, I'm surprised that nobody has cast Eliza Taylor as Debbie Harry in a Blondie movie or miniseries.

In today's world, this makes it easier to find someone on IMDB if they are either unrecognisable on their IMDB page or if they have no cover photo.
My WordPress blog has received over a thousand views in one day. Most of these views come from China because of my Robert Zemeckis article. For a month, this article got hundreds of views. As for why there has been a sudden spike, perhaps there was a video or some TV exposure that I'm not aware of.

There used to be mostly genuine kinksters with things to say about all things kink but then you have adult entertainers using it to plug themselves, or exhibitionists who are using it as a platform to become professional (especially people who pretend to be amateurs).

08.10.2025 10:19 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The memoirs of Lenny Kravitz and Alex Van Halen end too early but at least Lenny was nice enough to indicate at the end that there will be a sequel.
Alex's memoir is the worst one that I've read because there are too many quotes lifted from other books and magazines (a blatant ghostwriting job).
There is a February 1985 (season 4) episode of The Fall Guy called Spring Break featuring actors named Erik Stern and Eric Scott. The latter is a ginger who is reminiscent of Eric Stoltz, who appeared in Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) like another actor in the same episode - Forest Whitaker.

From Alex Van Halen's memoir: "I think about how our mother died on my younger son Malcolm's birthday, August 4, and then you died on my older son Aric's, October 6. I don't know what that means, exactly, but I don't think you can write that off as coincidence."

David starred in a film with an actress who also had the same birthday. This was Deborah Odell in The Last Sect (2006), but they didn't marry.
* They married in 1998.
** They divorced in 1997.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps grossed $521.5 million against a budget of $200+ million.
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning grossed $598.8 million against a budget of $300+ million.
Ironically, Tom Cruise's face looks less digitally enhanced than Vanessa Kirby's.
Weird discrepancy about the rental scheme on the UK's Sky TV service...
The Fantastic Four: First Steps costs ยฃ15.99.
Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning costs ยฃ4.99.
Perfect View - the only album by The Graces - is an overlooked gem. The band was a project from Charlotte Caffey: lead guitarist of The Go-Go's.
I also feel sorry for Kathy Valentine (the bassist of The Go-Go's) because The Delphines only had two albums but they should have got more attention.
Watching The Hateful Eight while Storm Amy hits the UK adds to the atmosphere of the film.
